Tia Carrere (from Wayne's World) and Asia Carrera (some porn star from the 90s that I didn't know existed until a few minutes ago) are not the same person.

This is tangential but she has a similar enough name to have popped into my head.

Porn star Asa Akira has the greatest Twitter feed ever.

Sweeney Todd is one of the best films ever. I've seen it about half a dozen times and would happily watch it again any time, and I normally don't rewatch/reread anything.

Carter was woefully miscast. Mrs. Lovett was the dominant personality in the relationship, and Sweeny was under her control. You need a strong voice like Lansbury had to drive that home, not Carter's quiet squeak.

Everything else was good.

In my youth, I did not understand how the world works. That there is no justice to anything, and you should not expect any. The good are not rewarded, nor the evil punished. No points are given for being better or worse than some ideal. The only thing that matters, to you, is how you think about things, and what you do based on that thought. You may get praise or appreciation, but that should be cast aside, because you are defined by inner movements. The whole universe is contained inside your brain, or the parts of it that matter anyway.

And before somebody brings it up, the guy in the movie even says that it could cause problems in the past, so the fact that none of the events of the Cloverfield Paradox prior to the catastrophe happening are taking place in the original film isn't technically a plot hole.

That's the one (or a similar one) that I've got. I think they were talking about the fridge/freezers with water and ice dispenser on the door, which are considerably more expensive.

Maybe one upon a time, but an ice dispenser on a fridge is pretty much like a backup camera on a car. It used to be some amazing fancy whatever thing, but if you get a new one nowadays you almost certainly are going to have that included.

Thanks to one of those morning radio celebrity birthday bits I just learned that Kane Hodder, the man behind the mask of most slasher villains, is not the guy who plays Kane in the WWE.

Kane is not a common name, and so many wrestlers are also actors, so I just always assumed.

James Marsden and James Marsters aren't the same guy.

Their names are close enough that when I started watching Westworld I just thought to myself "Hey, neat. The guy from Buffy is making a comeback."

So you know the joke "Why did the chicken cross the road?" That extremely well known joke that we've all been hearing since we could understand what a joke is? The punchline isn't just about the simple motivations driving a chicken to do what it does. The other side is the afterlife, because the chicken gets run over.

You can multiply any base 10 number by 10 by adding a zero to the end.

It's there any base value where you don't multiply any number by the base value by adding a zero?

By that same logic any number is divided by the base value by removing a zero at the end, but the higher the base value the less likely the number is to end in a zero. Of course, all you're really doing is moving the decimal point over and dropping the zero after the decimal point.

The Dark Crystal is is by far the creepiest of those, though it is quite good. The funny thing is my adult self got more skeeved by it when I gave it a spin awhile ago. It's exactly the kind of movie the PG-13 rating is for.

Try watching the new series. The number of times I turned to the person watching with me in horror and we sarcastic quipped "you know, for kids!" was astounding.

Watching a puppet get covered in arterial spray as it bludgeons a helpless character you've known for the entire series to death sure is a thing you don't see often.

"rear end" is derived from "arse", and originally meant "ears", but later became a butt euphemism. Hence the 'jackass' getting named after its huge ears.


This means the children's song 'do your ears hang low' is a sanitized version of the original song, asking if you're so dummy thick your rear end cheeks clapping alerts the british army

It's almost impressive how wrong everything in this post is.
