Finally, we have closure and can get on with our lives. They blew it, though. What they should do is shelve the Captain and introduce a Scandinavian actor to play Thor. My vote would be for Norwegian Trond Espen Seim: And there's got to be an Asgardian role for Jahn Dennis Storh�i: It's so obvious, that it's almost stupid. Of course, watch David Howard come up with some after-the-fact rationalization.

Wasn't invited to camp.

Cherie Currie had a lookalike (twin?) sister named Marie. Fortunately, nobody got the idea that sibs = sexploitation gold until she left the runaways. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qlv8wwZAehc

It's the movie that brings horny middle aged men and trashily-dressed teenagers together in one theater.

Pretty cool how the guitarist became a rock icon and the bass player became the chair of the Republican party.

Probably going to bust 'em out tonight for the night game. Drink will flow and blood will spill.

He got hurt the same weekend Reyes did. He was doomed. I wouldn't be surprised if the injury on this other hand came from him overcompensating.

Different papers are going in opposite directions. Some say Cora. Some say Tejada.

Ed Price has nothing on Valadius.

Oddly enough, Disney's first attempt at experimenting with computer-generated feature animation was an adaptation of ? It was 1983, and Disney was making good decisions at the time, and they fortunately decided the technology wasn't yet up to carrying the artisitic vision forward. Lead animator on that test project was Glen Keane, aka "Billy" from The Family Circus.

Why (oh, why!) didn't you jerkweeds tell me (beg me!) not to dial up a clip of that John Hughes tribute? That was... awful! I need to wash my brain.
-
John Hughes is a funny case. He apparently hated (or at least resented) Hollywood, but Hollywood loved him. Worth mentioning though is that, in producing Home Alone, he came up with the best grossing comedy ever to that date and, in doing so, struck a vein of box office gold, the reasonalbe-budget family-oriented slapstick/cartoony/pratfall vilolence comedy, that became tired pretty fast, but made a lot of bigwigs very rich men. Silence of the Lambs wasn't a winner. It was a sweeper, taking Best Picture, Best Actress, Best Actor, Best Director, and Best Screenplay.

Creepazoids who've been bringing it for decades and are probably more or less likeable in general get extra juice. Like, Gary Busey will never win for playing a creep because it's hard for anybody to think it's a stretch for him. And handicaps roles. Those get loads of votes and wins. Handicaps in the leads. Creeps and sweeties in the supporting roles. Guh!

Guys who've won BSA Oscars being creepy (or at least morally compromised): 2008: Heath Ledger playing a homicidal maniac/terrorist in clown makeup 2007: Javier Bardem playing a cop-strangling hit man, captive-bolt pistol wielding carjacker/killer. 2006: Alan Arkin playing a remorseless hard-drug abusing, grandkid-corrupting, porn-loving grandfather training his grand-daughter in the art of erotic dance. 2005: George Clooney playing a CIA assassin/rogue operative with indiscriminately loose lips. 2003: Tim Robbins playing a child-rape-survivor/killer. 2002: Chris Cooper playing a tragedy-torn orchid thief. Exceptions in the last decade include Morgan Freeman, Jim Broadbent, and Benicio del Toro.

That's a great memory.

Eight.

Any idea how many you're up to?

I'm just disappointed that two others here saw it. I was hoping this pain was mine and mine alone. Heavy hitters in the lineup like Bill Nighy and Phillip Seymour Hoffman. Then it's rounded out with solid role players like Rhys Ifans and Nick Frost. Coming off the bench are former All Stars like Kenneth Brannagh and Emma Thompson (in what must be the first film they share since their divorce, though they never share a scene), but stack it all up and what you get is a big brown floating lump of shit.

Edgy DC, somewhat insensible as he collapses into his hotel room, inadvertantly purchases Pirate Radio, wherein a bunch of 1960s rebel rowdies broadcast rock 'n' roll to British listeners from a boat anchored in the Northern Sea.

Fran Healy will tell you, that may be a small sample in the AFL, but it's got to help his confidence.

Well, Drew Barrymore, Inc. has ben getting the details wrong for a long time now.
