Some other swingers in their community going nuts on all Mister’s face holes and we pan to this on a filthy hotel carpet

I wasn’t sure I was with you in the first bit but now I do indeed know what you mean. Both riddled with holes to fill anyway, so…

It’s so off-brand. They should be simultaneously streaming a new 4k restoration of Maniac Cop or something.

His big, genius "eureka" moment was spilling bacon grease on his Mario Bros. 1-up tee.

Perhaps a metaphor for fiction as a genre…? But no, it just seemed cool because you were a teenage boy yet hadn’t been molested by either man. Ultimately a mediocre crime flick with a gotcha that you couldn’t even really get until Bronx Tale does.

Gobo, Mokey, Wembley, Doozer, Uncle Traveling Matt. These all rule.

Family Matters is probably the weirdest shit ever televised.

Terry Tubi and Todd Pluto should have been at the inauguration.

@gorangligovic.bsky.social, I am frankly desperate for your approval that dated manga 𝕾𝖔𝖓𝖘 𝖔𝖋 𝕺𝖗𝖐𝖚𝖘 can join the squad.

Alright, NOW I'm woefully late, because I kept thinking he should be an old manga character and finally just did it. 𝕾𝖔𝖓𝖘 𝖔𝖋 𝕺𝖗𝖐𝖚𝖘 goes to 1960s Japan, I guess.

I’m supposed to but refuse—less from feeling old than how much I would obsess about the split focus. It would stress me out.

I fear she’s aged out of it. Looks great, of course, but Jenny being 40 probably doesn’t play.

Like with Sky Captain, we somehow had the perfect actors at the perfect ages for this throwback pastiche that wasn’t as good as it should have been (particularly with the actually pretty bad Sky Captain)

I guess Rupert Friend from Asteroid City could be Dalton, but I’d maybe prefer Dan Stevens. Jacob Elordi as Rocketeer? Wes can talk to Coppola about him.

Yeah, it’s a dish of beautiful, perfect ingredients that comes out a bit undercooked. Miyazaki should also take a crack at it though.

I always want to like The Rocketeer more than I do in practice. Wish Spielberg made it instead of his more workmanlike brethren.

I washed my hands at one of these (vet) stations yesterday while I waited. Felt like making my own burger at the diner: sure it’s all right in front of you, but you aren’t meant to touch it.

These AI dorks honestly fucking don't. That's why the online discourse for films is about PLOT HOLES and SPOILERS, and maybe whether the cinematography was "good." Their understanding of artistry is as dumb and surface-level as AI, so why wouldn't they adore these mushy simulacrums?

He met Vice President Robert Culp, who was hoping to ascend until being caught by Columbo. The President is never named.

Yet it’s already so visually on the nose there’s really nothing to add. Political cartoons defy the New Yorker caption contest.

I pompously hardly gave the default stations a shot. Bringing "DJ, I actually brought my own CD, so..." energy to the new year to enter my new era I call "awful"

Yeah, gotta do the radio station mod. I went more City Pop meets smooth grooves to be slightly less on the nose. Also the mod to always keep it on that station.

Can't even satirize Leonard. It's like, "Yeah, that's his bullshit, but go on..."

We’ll keep Vincent Price as Egghead though

Sorry, casting Batman from only Columbo guest stars is making my mind go nuts. Batman is probably actually Cassavetes? McDowall is Riddler.

Nimoy would have been a great Mr. Freeze though.

With Roddy McDowall as

Ethan Hawke is pissed he got passed over for this.

The whole game is about trying to get the obnoxious ramblings of an aging dipshit out of your head, so I guess it's justified even if accidentally so.
