I'm sure you know that Gilbert Gottfried does not talk like that, normally.

It's a character he puts on.

There is no way anyone sounds like that.

Agreed. Spider-Man beat my expectations. The Getty images video just set the tone early.

I was also very happy he ditched the nano suit for some low tech options for most of the film. NIGHT MONKEY!

actual spoiler edit The town that Spidey calls Happy from was it really called Buku Blunder Ville?

Yeah, Stranger Things has a lot of actors "From the Eighties" that help to evoke that nostalgia. Matthew Modine in S1, Paul Reiser and Sean Aston in S2, Cary Elwes in S3. Jake Busey in S3 but he's more 90s if he was ever famous enough to evoke nostalgia. Obviously Winona's Big Brown Beaver throughout.

Her 80s horror cred is mostly Beetlejuice. A comedy about someone dead not being able to make themselves known to the living so pretty on the nose.

I haven't seen s3 yet so looking forward to RoUSs?

In Preacher season 4 episode 3 there is a fight in a sex club. Right before the guy in the gimp suit pulls a gun the music switches to Dick Dale, ala Tarantino.

Preacher is in its fourth season? I've never heard or seen a person in real life reference it at all, wow.

I like the cast. Not really sure where they're going with it anymore. Maybe it is jumping the same set of sharks that people say Supernatural* has been for years?

I’m a little surprised Preacher made it to the end. I’ve watched all but the last season and I’ve liked it, but it’s modest ratings were never going to justify the amount of poo poo AMC must get for making the holy scion whip out his dick and piss at every opportunity.

It’s impossible to describe the plot line with a straight face though. “And then in season 2 the supernatural preacher and his vampire buddy went on a road trip and the guy with an rear end in a top hat for a mouth meets Hitler.”

They have chill regular Jesus now as well as the incestual scion Humperdoo the dancing idiot so clearly they were trying to be sensitive to the oppressed Christian minority.

I couldn't watch BWE after Darmody died. It lost all appeal to me quickly because it was so staunchly about the struggle between the two of them. There just didnt seem to be anyone else strong enough to carry the show after that. Same thing happened with a certain anime that I wouldnt want to double spoil here but if you know what I'm talking about you know what I mean.

I'm just in S1 of BWE and uh, agreed.

I lost it with Dexter when they killed Doakes ffs.

A Muppet Family Christmas is the superior Muppet Xmas movie. Fight me.

Every December, me, my wife and our friends still watch a standard def vhs recording that I burned on a dvd with the best commercials 1987 had to offer.

Fake edit: we also drink heavily throughout :v:

I do find 1987 commercials interesting.

Used to do a traditional drinking rewatch of betamaxmas.com (an old goon project) just for the ads and seeing Ole Ronnie give his super gone Xmas speech.

Sorry

It’s not a subtle movie moment but in Unforgiven when Clint Eastwood was talking about death and murder

“It's a hell of a thing killin' a man. You take away all he's got and all he's ever gonna have.”

Sums up westerns and any other kind of show that treats death casually.

In the new trailer for the new star wars movie, you can see Rey running through a forest. This is a subtle nod that this is fiction, because everyone knows white girls can't run in a forest without falling down and getting axe murdered.

Tom Cruise was selected as the lead for Top Gun due to unique characteristics he shared with Navy pilots. Namely that he’s short as hell, eats crayons, and is illiterate. What is not generally know is that these qualities are unique to Marine pilots and no one noticed the mistake until production had already started. By then it was too costly to make the needed changes and the movie moved forward as originally planned.

Are marine pilots also really comfortable with innuendo? I’m watching the documentary (yes I know it isn’t) Generation Kill and those marines can take or leave it. Although it’s set two decades later.
