  1. Speed Racer is one of those things people talked about nostalgically in college that I'd never heard about. I didn't watch enough TV as a kid.
  2. ]Need Slugging 1B - Omar Minaya
  3. Hmm...I think there are definite Mets films and Yankees films.
  4. I'm also wondering how a non-MLB city has cracked the top 30 when there are currently 30 franchises.
  5. Ferris Bueller's Day Off, The Blues Brothers, Eight Men Out, The Fugitive, A Night in the Life of Jimmy Reardon, and Running Scared all feel more Chicago-ey to me, but I like High Fidelity so I'm going to vote for it anyway.
  6. Haven't seen either. Haven't heard of Federal Hill. Well, I've heard of the hill, not the movie. Might just vote for Providence out of my New England chauvinism.
  7. Valadius wrote: There's room directly between the Washington Monument and the Jefferson Memorial. Apropos location.
  8. I'm more confused than I was before, but I was able to add this to my Netflix queue so I should be seeing it soon after all.

  10. I haven't seen this movie and with my track record probably won't see it for a while, but continually hearing the quotation and not knowing what it means is driving me nuts. Would someone be able to explain the context of the milkshake thing in a simple, non-spoilerific way?
  11. I haven't seen this movie, but Mystic River is more of a Charlestown film. At least that would be logical since Charlestown is on the Mystic River and Southie is not. The author Dennis Lehane actually set it in a fictitious neighborhood called Buckingham which he saw as an amalgam of all of Boston's tough, white neighborhoods - Charlestown, Dorchester, Southie, and Allston. But Hollywood just seems to love South Boston even if they don't know where it is.
  12. Armstrong is notoriously reclusive and media shy.
  13. I remember liking Iceman. The rest of the list looks like crap.
  14. It's a dirndl you want the St. Pauli girls to be out of.
  15. Farmer Ted wrote: Then Donald Sutherland flies up to Oregon for the filming, stays there less than 36 hours for his parts, and gets the girl. So impressive that they wrote it into the script.
  16. Chocolate-covered awesomeness:
  17. Read the books last year. Eagerly await seeing the movie.
  18. John Cougar Lunchbucket wrote: You're a city-dwelling elitist prick aren't you? I was going to object to this, but then I realized that all these things are true.
  19. Video store...how quaint.
  20. Award shows, YAWN.
  21. Very easy to just say that Chekov worked on another part of the ship and moved up to the bridge after a year.
  22. A friend of mine saw Volcano and saw the building she once lived at in Los Angeles (which she hated) get destroyed. She was the only one in the movie theater cheering for the volcano.
  23. Good luck to anyone who does Toronto which substitutes as a filming location for just about every US city but is rarely the setting itself.
