Well now. Maybe America will have given the world something worthwhile in 2025 after all. (Pope Leo XIV, yo.)

I couldn't *stand* his style as a young kid, then *adored* it as an older teen/adult. His style was instantly recognizable, even though it was also "realistic". That's a golden set of attributes. RIP. (And yes, your style is equally "golden".)

Spoken like someone who never had less than 30 dolls.

It finds a way!

You're welcome, Canada. We're also still very, very sorry. But also, you're welcome.

How did no one ever cast Ray Wise and Sam Neill as related to each other?!? Damn, missed opportunity. (Can you imagine these two legends on the same screen?)

Shaolin Soccer is a little more messy, a little more hit or miss with the humor, but it's well worth the watch.

Rewatched this just a few months ago. Really holds up. And shocking that after this he did Kung Fu Hustle (the apex!) and then largely bowed out. Only a film here and there. But damn. Two absolute masterpieces before he did.

You Survived Easter! No small feat given the new Peeps that The Company rolled out this year…

And did you see that we actually found one (and only one!) Wine and Peeps Pairing this year? (Note: the pairing is real, real to the end.)

THIS. Is the only thing that matters in America right now.

The crisis is here. Not 6 months from now. Not maybe. It’s fully happening.

Everyone is going to have a tomorrow that looks roughly like today with the tarrifs. We won’t with this.

God dammit I hate April the 1st. I’m too gullible for this shit.

This is an incredible conversation. Especially the second half.

Oooo! Following this one for sure.

Oh…jeez…actor / stuntman / martial artist RICHARD NORTON passed away this weekend - right after I watched CHINA O’BRIEN 1 & 2 for the very first time!

Even James Gunn knew what a loss this was. Time for an “in memorium” marathon of his best movies.

Yep

When the wine hails from "Chateau Vineyards" you know it at least came from a vineyard. Good enough for me.

Yeah and then mlfa.org/cases/motion...

It's all still ongoing. A filing is just someone claiming something. A motion to dismiss is the other side claiming the initial filing is bogus. There's no slam dunk obvious crime here. Do some research but also learn what that research MEANS, dippy.

Every. Single. Time I stopped petting him. I swear.

One thing I love about the modern world: if anyone catches you talking to yourself, you can pretend you have earbuds or whatever and holding a real back and forth conversation. That's actually MORE psychotic yet nobody bats an eye. 😜

Whooo! My second guest appearance on Fanbase Weekly podcast! Trust me: YOU DID NOT KNOW YOU NEEDED "BABY: SECRET OF THE LOST LEGEND" IN YOUR LIFE BUT YOU DO!!! Horrible title. Enthralling movie. Sits in that adult/kids uncanny valley of the 80's alongside Temple of Doom and Howard the Duck!

More very soon.
