Somebody tell me why LOVE CRAZY is not universally regarded as a timeless classic.

TCM will be running the MGM melodrama GASLIGHT directly across from Trump's STFU address tonight.

I heard the airlines had to stop showing MELANIA because there were too many walkouts (ba-dum-BUM)

I had biiiigggg fun talking to Matt, who is a gentleman and a scholar

Archie Goodwin had a habit of tacking an extra twisteroo onto the end of his Creepy Classic adaptations ("Tell-Tale Heart," "The Damned Thing," etc.). As a result, when I eventually read the originals, I would always think "Hey! They cut off the ending!"

I guess people have forgotten that Trump started the pandemic by refusing to test and bringing in tens of thousands of people in crowded airports. and then stole PPE from blue states. and then suggested bleach or UV light might cure it. and then tried to kill Biden with it. and then

It costs $130 + a $35 facility fee to obtain a passport and an extra $30 for a passport card. In California, fees for certified copies of vital records are between $18 and $31 each. How is the SAVE Act not a poll tax?

Galling if true, because I would have loved to have written SOME part for C.O'H., however tiny. One of my great joys in life was seeing Elliott Gould of THE LONG GOODBYE, one of my all-time favorites, in "The Screwfly Solution," a MASTERS OF HORROR ep I wrote for Joe Dante

No sir

Aaaaack--can't say. This is the first I've heard of it. Most of the casting took place during the '88 writers' strike when I was sitting on my thumbs

Re: Cap, I endorse this idea. (Although "Star-Spangled Man with a Plan," which occasionally veers into camp, is still pretty much of a rouser. And if you ax me, Joe Johnston's first Cap movie is still one of the best Marvels.)

BTW, the Spidey cartoon theme is in the credits of the first Raimi!

The internal rhymes! Lorenz Hart would sell his soul, I tell ya . . . !

The Captain America lyrics are downright brilliant:

"When Captain America throws his mighty shield/All those who chose to oppose his shield must yield/If he's led to a fight/And a duel is due/Then the red and the white/And the blue'll come through/When Captain America throws his mighty shield."

Doctors say that vaccines protect children from dangerous diseases. A nepo baby who barbecues dogs and snorts cocaine off toilet seats says that vaccines make children vulnerable to 5G radiation. For busy parents, it can be hard to know who to trust.

The year is 2015. China is getting richer and more powerful every year, but America has three trump cards: universitities, biomedical research, and immigration.

Hi attorneys! Want to not be able to get to sleep tonight? Here's Judge Rakoff (probably the single most well-respected judge in SDNY) saying that the use of AI destroys both attorney-client privilege and work-product privilege.

Roger that. Living in Buffalo, NY, I got to see SCTV & FAWLTY TOWERS on the Toronto stations before they migrated south. SNL was the hip sketch show. SCTV was the smart sketch show.

Although I never got to meet her, the first spec script I ever sold was one I wrote as a vehicle for Catherine O'Hara. Everything she did was kissed by genius.

This one hurts.

to the extent that there is a “carrot” to trumpism it is the same carrot that slaveholders offered to lower class white men: “you can be an overseer”
