I had nightmares about a black goo in a lake trying to eat me as a very young child and a few years ago I found out that The Raft segment from Creepshow 2 matched those dreams almost exactly.

This is from a few pages back, but it triggered a crazy memory. Our sixth grade band teacher popped in the Creepshow 2 VHS and played it for the whole class during the last week of school. Full on Rated R with nudity and gore in a public elementary in a small Texas town back in like 1988. We moved that summer, so I don't know if the teacher ever got in trouble or not.

Isla Fisher as a frumpy housewife in Keeping up with the Joneses is about as believable as Rachel Leigh Cook as the ugly girl in She's All That.

Glad to pretend she's a frumpy housewife for the payoff of that dress later in the film.

Been ages since I've seen Thundarr. Was the rotating head two face guy the ultimate villian in it or something else?

The two-faced wizard Gemini! He was the first villain and he returned in a later episode but there was a whoooole bunch more hightech wizards apart from him.

gently caress it, lets just connect everything together.

watching Hidden Figures? bam, post-credit scene about the magical heist movie, Now You See Me 3. how'd they go back in time? who gives a poo poo they're magicians. watching Now You See Me 3? the magical heist is the virus from Resident Evil Reboot (REboot). then harry potter shows up, patronuses some zombies.

just give me the human centipede of movies, right into my veins

Each episode of Thundarr takes place in a different part of post apocalyptic America. If you watch the show in episode order and pay attention to geographical and architectural tells, you can actually track his path on a map.

I watched Ocean's Twelve last night, as part of my quest to actually watch every Soderbergh movie, and holy poo poo, who greenlighted that? It was incredibly fun, but from a Hollywood standpoint it's absolute arthouse wank nonsense with really amazing visuals and the best score I've ever heard.

Today I found out that Soderbergh himself considers it "the highest budget stoner film" and that they're doing an all-female Ocean's Eight

They named the fourth Ocean's film Ocean's 8

I think this is when Clooney, Pitt, Damon, and all just wanted an excuse to spend a summer hanging out at their Italian villas and made a movie on the side.

I don't know the answer to this question and refuse to google it but uh Blade Runner was at one point.

Rutger Hauer spent an evening contemplating his character's death scene and came up with the iconic speech about having seen things.

It was pretty good work. Or maybe he just grabbed a writer by the collar and coldly explained he needed an iconic death speech, threw a wad of cash at him and was like "make it work"

Hmmm...

I mean, Jesus Christ. First off, why the hell are they charging a teacher for showing an R-Rated movie? Porn I can get, but goddamn horror movies are made for high school kids. Second, goddamn ABCs of Death? Why the gently caress would you ever show some kids that poo poo? I like it, I'll admit it's not always a great film, but jesus if you're showing kids a horror movie at least pull out the 2016 Evil Dead. It ain't 10/10 but it's quality film making beginning to end. Alternatively, if you want to teach your kids the ABCs, the best way to go about it with books. Specifically Edward Gorey's The Gashlycrumb Tinies.

I figured they went with 8 because going with 14 would be a bit excessive (until the eventual crossover with the originals), and it gives them room for two sequels again (Oceans 9 and 10) before reaching 11
