  1. Dude, Paul...Katherine Hepburn...not Lauren Bacall. C'mon, man.
  2. I worked at a movie theater in 2004. It was a quiet weekday with only a smattering of patrons. An elderly couple leaving their auditorium stopped at the poster for Sky Captain and the husband says, "I thought we were seeing that!" They had just sat through, start to finish, Soul Plane starring Snoop Dogg.

    25 - Chronic Town

    Missed opportunity to not have a monetary thread and name him Mike Millions (assuming Stipe& = stipend).

    Episode 3 - Cartoons

    Yes to Jayce and Bionic 6. So-so show and toys, but great animation and earwormy, rockin' themes.
  5. 100% down for REM!! I've been clamoring since it was casually suggested how ever many years ago now (somewhere around Prisoner of Azkaban, I think). Scotts the Frequency...Scott?

    Episode 171 - Miami Connection: LIVE!

    A theory on the "Miami" in Miami Connection, which was originally titled Against The Ninja. When the Bruce Lee film Fist of Fury was released in the US, it's title was changed to The Chinese Connection to capitalize on the popularity of The French Connection (note: they meant to give the name to The Big Boss, but messed up...so that was retitled Fists of Fury, just so everything was nice and confusing. Of further note, it's about a drug smuggling ring and everyone does martial arts). Anyway, I think the title Miami Connection is supposed to draw comparisons to those films, but more specifically, to invoke Bruce Lee himself. Miami Vice could be a contributing factor in Miami over Orlando, but that could be as simple as Orlando Connection not packing the same punch.
  7. "Seductive position" softens the fact that she straight up Sharon Stone/Basic Instincts him.

    Episode 166.5 - Minisode 166.5

    Paul Bartel and Jim Wynorski are two different people. On the subject, however, Paul and Mary "Bland" making a cameo in Chopping Mall is the craziest example of stunt cast/in-joke I've seen in a movie (Dick Miller was more of a wink and actually makes sense). I can't imagine the scene making any sense unless you are in on it. I'm sure they'll bring this up. I feel like Eating Raoul is something Jason would have seen and been into.

    Episode 165 - Ninja Terminator: LIVE!

    I wanted to get into Godfrey Ho and the whole ninja craze in general, but it looks like we're pretty well covered here. One thing that I don't think was mentioned, however, was Pink Floyd's "Echoes" which can be heard... For those that watched on YouTube, did you happen to also watch the trailer for Golden Ninja Warrior? If so, did you love it?

    Episode 159 - Sleepwalkers

    I also watched this with my Stephen King loving mother when I was 8. She did not, however, speak a single word to me about that and I assume was just hoping it'd all be over my head. I do remember arguing with her that the cop was Mark Hamill and triumphantly pointing at his name in the credits (as if I didn't know what Luke fucking Skywalker looked like, pft!). I also remember NOT being able to sleep that night and sneaking back to the living room to watch Disney's Pinocchio. I don't know why I chose it, but does fit as a bizarre transformation double feature. Maybe I just wanted to see Figaro?

    Episode 159 - Sleepwalkers

    I read this as his inner child responding to it's greatest fear: kitties. I'm sure the last thing he expected to see was a cat, literally, riding shotgun. Good question, but if they could take other forms (age? ethnicity?), shouldn't they have been doing it all the time? Seems like a handy trick for someone constantly on the run.

    Episode 157.5 - Minisode 157.5

    Ummmm...Dr. Mario is fucking amazing. And yes, all of the screengrabs were Chopping Mall.
  14. Speaking of sculptures... In the TV series (at least early on), Duncan MacLeod is an antiques dealer. I always thought that was a clever profession/cover. He'd have had 400 years to collect shit and hone his skills. "Nope, that's definitely 17th century...trust me."
  15. I meant to bring this up, too. It almost doubles as a jab at MacLeod for even having concern for it. "What, this piece of shit?"
