  1. Someone I work with died a couple of weeks ago, and now whenever something falls over somebody says it was their ghost, and everyone here is weird and I want to go home.
  2. Which is funny because he has such a low opinion of him as a worker. "Jesus would have the same match in Galilee as he would in Judea, walk on water, water into wine...Jesus couldn't do anything but have a Jesus match."
  3. I never really watched his shows, but boy did he know how to write explicit sex stories in whatever the hell those spy books were. And he wrote Palisades Park, which is a jam.
  4. Speaking of posters, this thread has also made me commit to getting a tattoo sleeve of minimalist movie poster art, so thanks(?)
  5. I like this. Real Wrestlemania isn't a single yearly show, it's the brittle middle aged millionaires you watch fake fight along the way.
  6. Okay, so films I voted for that I was surprised didn't make it (but I'm not, like, Mad Onlineā„¢ about)... McCabe and Mrs. Miller Amarcord Blowout The Last Emperor The General On the Town The Long Goodbye Brokeback Mountain Memories of Murder Blow-Up A Hard Day's Night Santa Sangre
  7. I did not see that coming. I could've sworn Seven Samurai had already placed. Thanks for doing this @RIPPA.
  8. I'm betting on interference from Hoth. Edit: Nevermind, it's shockingly not first.
  9. I used to hate the third act, but I realized at some point it's because there's a conscious decision to make the movie less fun and more uncomfortable and unpleasant as Henry's life spirals out of control. Scorsese essentially stole his own blueprint for Wolf of Wallstreet and didn't stick the landing in the third act nearly as well.
  10. More than half of my list has shown up, so I really can't complain, but I'm surprised at the lack of Altman and Fellini entries. I also voted for Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein and I really thought on this board it had a shot.
  11. Broadway: Annie Get Your Gun (Bernadette Peters was fantastic.) The Music Man (With Will from Will&Grace as Professor Hill.) Phantom of the Opera Mama Mia The Producers (I think someone from Coach was in it?) Touring productions visiting Philly, I've seen Phantom and Mama Mia a few more times, as well as Rent. I've seen quite a bit of community theater, but off the top of my head I recall really excellent local versions of Fences, Sleuth, and Hairspray. The number of High School productions I've seen would be almost impossible to figure. I know my mom kept all of the old programs, but it felt like we went to one every week when I was a kid. It was mostly the usual suspects (West Side Story, Grease, Guys and Dolls...) We benefited from living in an area where a lot of schools had very prestigious and well funded theater programs. I did Summer theater when I was 12/13 and performed in Fame (where I was the dick actor who drops out and ends up waiting tables) and That's Entertainent! (where among other things I got to be a T-Bird and the Coach from Damn Yankees who sings You've Gotta Have Heart.)
  12. This is a good time to get this clarified: Don't they give each new champion their own touring belt? Are old belts wrestlers have on their walls at home replicas?
  13. Fortunately his novelty license plate is intact.
  14. I'm not sure what everyone thought Braun's ceiling was in this company, but we've probably seen it unless he gets traded to Smackdown and gets a Hall of Pain-type run at some point.
  15. I'd pay upwards of three figures to a Patreon to hear/read @piranesi review nostalgia TV shows in the backgrounds of amateur videos.
  16. I spent ten minutes looking for it last night. I even looked in The Vault thinking they put it there as a joke.
  17. They were going to one year but he had another engagement.
  18. I really should have put 12 Angry Men on my list. It's one I guess I take for granted because it seeped into the cultural subconscious so much that there's a jury duty episode of like every tv show that bites off of it.
  19. I don't want to sleaze this up, but another male talent that's still signed with them appears to be involved, so it would be really inexcusable to release Paige without involving the other party too.
  20. I haven't seen nearly enough of them, but I remember the Hobgoblins episode being fantastic.
  21. I liked Logan a great deal, but one issue I had (besides what felt like overkill trying to earn the R rating in the first half hour or so) was the same problem I had with The Wolverine: It was a minor quibble considering how much I enjoyed it, and the ending was surprisingly poignant for me; I've never been that attached to the series, but something about dropping my daughter off with a sitter so my wife and I could see Jackman's swan song as a character I've watched him play since middle school got me.
  22. Three Musketeers made my list. So much energy and fun, and Technicolor at its most glorious:
  23. Tried to go into work since the accumulation wasn't too bad, but slipped and fell in my own driveway three times trying to clean my car off. As soon as I was going to pull out of my driveway my boss called and told me to stay home. I've since assed out again on my front steps trying to wave down a kid offering shovel services. I'm not leaving the house again today without a Life Alert.
