Everyones busy talking about Steven Spielberg's next alien movie "Disclosure Day." Of course, I've decided to ignore the shiny new object and spend my time discussing #TobeHooper's 1986 remake of #InvadersFromMars instead. Priorities. #SciFiCritic 1000daysofscifi.blogspot.com…

Rest in peace to Gene Shalit, a man whose Kermit the Frog interview went absolutely off the rails in 1984.
Nobody has interviewed a Muppet like this since.

#TheHand #OliverStone - I expected a simple cheesy flick with a plot pulled from a truck stop horror paperback novel that's now long out-of-print. What I got was something deeper...or so it tried to be. Cue #MichaelCaine's stare tactics. 1000daysofhorror.blogspot.co…

#HarpoMarx #HarpoSpeaks Purchased this album, released on the 5th. The liner notes mention that in March 1962, Harpo spoke at a fundraiser at Oakland's Claremont Hotel. My grandfather later served as the hotel's physician in the late '60s or '70s. He missed him by that much!

A man crashed a stolen car outside St. Joseph Shrine. Then he bolted.
The Rector heard the crash and someone yelled "stop him."
So Rev. Jean-Baptiste Commins — in full cassock — tackled him, and held him until the police came.
Never underestimate a priest in a cassock.

What coulda been! #Ghostbusters #JEdgarHoover #AlternateScenes #Gozer I had to see for myself what it would have looked like if Peter thought of J. Edgar Hoover before Ray's marshmallow fantasy.

Norm Macdonald was a Christian.
And this is perhaps the best Christian joke I've ever heard.

#TheOddCouple #TheOddCouple2 #NeilSimon #JackLemmon #WalterMatthau - Certainly not as funny as the first movie, but it has its funny moments. Also, a little bittersweat as it's Lemmon and Matthau's last movie together.

This film is the reason why the 'Best Makeup' category was created at the Oscars. John Hurt’s transformation was so impactful that the Academy, facing public backlash for not having an award to honor it, officially established the category the following year.

#JackLemmon #WalterMatthau #OutToSea - not a bad movie, but one that certainly uses a lot of the comedic tropes that make Lemmon and Matthau funny. It tries not to be "The Odd Couple" while using the same comedic formula. dontfastforward.blogspot.com…
