Rewatching HALT AND CATCH FIRE. A missed opportunity: The first episode should have ended where Macmillan says "Computers aren't the thing. They're the thing that gets you *to* the thing," and Gordon Clark looks up at him.

AND it should have rolled credits to "New Gold Dream" by Simple Minds.

I love this guy. Saw this clip on John Oliver a few days back.

How are you guys doing? Message/text me. I got completely sidetracked with work for a while and meant to catch up with you.

Is this ragebait or satire?

Any time life gets you down, just remember that somebody you know who isn't you voted for this imbecile.

In fact it's really marvelous how much social commentary Spielberg gets away with in this film produced in the same era as cocaine noirβ€”an entire genre revolving around the debauchery of idle rich white people.

A great little touch in JURASSIC PARK is Sir Richard Attenborough's mispronunciation of "Chilean" when talking of sea bass. The son of academics/philanthropists and brother of David Attenborough, the famed naturalist, adds emphasis to the white colonial imperialist/businessman side of Hammond.

It is the most freeing thing in the world not to be beholden to any American media companies. Once upon a time I caught a PR exec sending what they thought was an internal email... the way they tried to walk it back when I excoriated their owners was delightfully hilarious. Children, all of them.

The clause fragment here ("fought harder...more than I did") is a very common error. More peculiar is point #3...

Why does he keep injecting himself into it? It's like the half (okay, twelfth) of his brain that would tell him to evade suspicion can't overcome the other 91.6% that craves attention.

Oh I can't wait for them to try this at the Venezuelan consulate. Something poetic about ICE being arrested and sent to a Venezuelan prison.

ICE roared "Beware, the storm is coming!"

And with one voice, Minnesotans whispered back, in that folksy sort of way that we do, "Oh hey there, buddy. We *are* the storm, dontcha know?"

STRANGER THINGS is like if MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE (1987) had a bigger budget. Except Courteney Cox and Dolph Lundgren are marginally better actors than Millie Bobby Brown and Noah Schnapp, and Langella's Skeletor is a goddamned Nobel Laureate compared to this Vecna imbecile.

God damn, this is terrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrible.

RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK is closer in time to THE TREASURE OF THE SIERRA MADRE (1948) than now.

I can't say this too loudly, because some dingdong executive will get the brilliant (read: awful) idea of having Fred C. Dobbs meet Indiana Jones.

Alfred Molina is so good in RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK, I didn't know he was Alfred Molina.

It pauses, looks at you, and just then you notice Michael Mann sitting atop it. He turns his head toward you, slowly, blinks, and says, β€œMatt, how do you like my new ride?” And then he and the zillipede disappear off into the sunset….

I love this clip. Too much gate can sound weird. Having a bit of room tone just underneath a soft gate makes all the difference in the world.

Ok THIS would have been hilarious....

Also, how desperate is Disney they have to bring back the character they completely pissed all over?

Almost sounds like a plot for a sitcom: He like to punch Nazis. She recruited them! Coming this summer: AVENGERS: THE ODD COUPLE!

There was a douchebro in high school who used to make fun of my thick Indian hair.

Now he has none. This is for you, Ryan.
