And rightly so, that poo poo was the craziest rear end-pull Doyle ever did, including when he took up a real life cause to get a recently convicted man acquitted because he knew in his heart that the real culprit was bigfoot

Houdini set up a staged seance using all the common tricks mediums used to fool people, then ran it through again with the lights on and the tablecloth off the table so that everybody could see the strings and levers, Penn and Teller style Doyle approached him afterwards and said "good job, I think they bought it. Now why didn't you tell me you could talk to ghosts I thought we were friends"

The collab Lovecraft did with Robert E Howard was funnier. They passed the story around exquisite corpse style, and Lovecraft's part ended with the protagonist on an alien planet realizing that he had become one of the aliens and going gibberingly mad Then Robert's part started with him coming to his senses, realizing that he has superpowers now and being a weird alien is actually awesome, and going on swashbuckling space adventures We look back on Lovecraft's more problematic work as a product of his time, but it's important to know that his contemporaries were sick of his poo poo also

Carl Weathers and Billy Dee Williams don't look all that similar, but they got confused for each other so often (because of racism) that they made a terrible movie where that was a plot point They don't even look alike on the poster

Patrick Warburton is a 7 foot tall actor who made his career in a 90s sitcom about a neurotic Jewish man and his weird friends who now mostly does cartoon voiceover work playing buff, lantern-jawed heroes Brad Garrett is a 7 foot tall actor who made his career in a 90s sitcom about a neurotic Italian man and his weird family who now mostly does cartoon voiceover work playing buff, lantern-jawed villains They couldn't be more different

I can't believe we talked about T2 for so long and never got into the subtle movie moment that launched a hundred pages of arguments Right up until he shoots the t-1000, there is no indication that Arnie terminator is there to help the Connors. If you went into it blind, that moment would be a huge twist.

And of course, the scene where the frozen t-1000 melts and all the little globules slowly merge back together and it looks so viscous and the fire reflections are so shiny, why that's just our old friend liquid mercury

I can confirm that it feels super badass to successfully pull off that shotgun lever twirl move and also that you will get in real big trouble if your dad sees you doing it even though it wasn't even loaded

Okay, I just watched both good Terminator movies with my partner because she said she hadn't seen them and I wanted to see if the twist theory held up. Unfortunately about ten minutes into T2 she remembered that she had, in fact, seen it before But I can confirm at least that the shot of the frozen chunk of t-1000 starting to melt is gallium, but the drops puddling together are mercury

DrBouvenstein posted:Not surprising because both The Tick and Mystery Men started as indy comics in the late 80's/early 90's, so they both have that vibe of "let's satirize a lot of the tropes and plotlines of Silver Age comics." And the ninja turtles were mutated by the same ooze that blinded young Matt Murdoch, though Marvel never acknowledged that, therefore the marvel cinematic universe is canon to Mystery Men but Mystery Men is not canon to the mcu

I don't know why the movies keep acting like it's the same person. People love the idea that James Bond is a code name, just look at how many times it's popped up itt over the years. I thought we were past this bullshit with Craig, but then they decided no, wait, it's not a reboot after all, hey look it's the car from Goldfinger Like, don't play into it, that would ruin it, but don't have one Bond weeping at the grave of another Bond's wife

So a couple of days ago I was watching Twilight Zone with some friends and we got to It's a Good Life, you know, the one with the little boy who has godlike powers. I never understood where the social commentary was in that episode, the other ones were all very clear with their message but that one always just seemed like "Did you see that poo poo? Wild." Rod Serling even says at the end "No comment here. No comment at all." Then somebody pointed out how much the setting looks like Leave it to Beaver, and that's when it clicked. It was satire of all those lovely saccharine tv shows that littered the airwaves in the 50s and 60s. A small town where nobody ever leaves and nobody new ever arrives, everything is good and nobody ever says or even thinks a negative thought, and the whole town knows and loves this one little boy

The way the water cycle works, every single molecule of water you've ever drank in your life has been pissed out by multiple dinosaurs. And with how many priests have been blessing water for so many centuries, all the water in the lakes, rivers and ocean in the world is holy water, which is why we don't have draculas anymore
