My favorite of the series!

It's just a cultural imprint where people who haven't seen to movie (or read the novel) make an assumption that "Bride" implies love.

You’re blowing my mind. Thanks for telling Danny how much we love SUNSHINE, I don’t think he hears it enough!

I never considered it before but if this were made now, Peter Dinklage would be the clear choice for the lead, and I think I would like Mandy Patinkin or Jonathan Frakes as his father.

HOUNDSTOOTH: A successful actor with dwarfism (Verne Troyer) is contacted by his declining biological father (Sid Haig), who left him as an infant, and now claims he wants to reconnect. bsky.app/profile/bwdr...

I realize, because I just watched it recently, that this plot is similar to THE ROYAL TENENBAUMS, but I came up with this concept many years ago, while both actors were still alive, without any influence from that film in mind.

I generally agree. But would swap AQUAMAN for y own favorite, MAN OF STEEL.

How the fuck is it even remotely possible that music library apps (many of them from major companies or dedicated DAPs), whose primary purpose is marrying data structure to UI, not clear the lowest bar of rudimentary data science? Holy shit.

Pam’s run is legendary and as a collective output can’t be topped, but TRUCK TURNER is the single best, hands down.

For each of these I tried to find the most accurate available subs, then edited, corrected, and synced to specific 35mm (and 16mm) scans. Many of these were meticulously adjusted line by line, and some provided with more accurate transcriptions than their official home video releases.

May is Better Hearing Month, aka National Speech-Language-Hearing Month. I have had hearing loss since high school. It's something I live with that adds a degree of difficulty to everything I do, even watching movies. Hopefully some of you will find these helpful.

Ah, cool, in any case I appreciate the signal boost. This was my first time hosting a table but it was pretty great!

A friend pointed out to me, and I agree, there’s a lot of Harry Potter DNA in this.
