Drives me nuts when I work through one of those "films everyone should watch" lists and they devote multiple slots to Griffith. You wanna throw one in for historical importance, fine, but don't waste 3 more slots that could have gone to other directors. And that 1 film doesn't need to be BOAN.

When people learn I watched it live as a kid, they expect me to talk about how horrible it was. But my friends and I all liked it, and thought cartoon Boba Fett was cool. Bea Arthur and Harvey Korman were just doing what they did every week on TV.

I see so many comedies shot documentary style when there's no reason to do so.

So weird to grow up watching things in grainy black and white alongside newer things in color with no problem, and now see my nieces unable to watch things unless they're in blazingly sharp HD.

There was a joke in an episode involving a character being hypnotized to think their fingers smell like cat litter, so they'll stop biting their nails.
I am forever doomed to remember this joke every time I clean the litter box. This means I think about We Got It Made twice a day, every day.

For a movie called The Blob, there's surprisingly little Blob content.

I'm glad he got to wrap it up in a way that, in my opinion, was completely satisfying.

I had a similar experience with the Funko equivalent of this. Herzog in a Walgreens.

Pheromones. You can't smell your TV, so we'll never know what heady cloud of musk those poor women encountered.

Democrats always seem to spend the last month of a campaign being positive while the other side hammers them with negative ads.

Ever wanted to see a film in which Ernest Borgnine is made up like a Satanic Muppet, and receives production notes from Anton Lavey? Have I got a movie for you...

Okay, the black and white cinematography helps a lot, too.

Great topic. I'm always drawn to late period work by directors, which inevitably seems to pop up after midnight on TCM. You never know if you'll get an overlooked gem or a train wreck.

When you say Gargoyles, gonna assume it's statues coming to life and terrorizing people in the city. Not a bunch of lizard people hatching eggs in the desert.

The comic book cover equivalent of Darkseid's Anti-Life Equation.

Namor is so p-whipped.

Yeah, the opening titles and theme set things up for mid 60s camp. Instead, we get a story that if the film had been more grainy, and Diana Does weighed 20 more lbs, it could have passed for 1970.

Would it work better if Billy Crystal did it in his jazzman voice?
