  1. The exact article that came to mind as I read this news. Brilliant writer. He’ll be missed.
  2. I’m probably old and out of touch, but I had to Google the guests he’s had in Miami so far. Yesterday’s interview was boring. Listened for about five minutes before bailing.
  3. While the authorities clearly screwed the pooch badly, it’s worth noting that the entirety of the criticism in that article comes from the dude that lost the election to the dude currently in charge. I stayed at that Inn one night for a good friend’s wedding. Beautiful place and perfect weather in June. csb/
  4. Another vote for the Two Escobars. I’ll also add the Hillsborough doc to the list.
  5. I wonder what the James Cameron version of Tombstone looks like. Michael Biehn, Bill Paxton, and Stephen Lange were all Cameron staples. Something dystopian like Terminator meets Wild West?
  6. I haven’t seen it in years, but Killing Zoe had my attention and was burned into my mind for a long time. Paris bank robbery gone bad. Very bad.
  7. Mad and (to a lesser extent) Cracked were long drive staples growing up as a kid. I’ll echo above about it having a profound impact on my sense of humor. RIP
  8. My daughter and I had this exact same conversation yesterday and we used the exact same line about Peaches not being a helpless damsel in distress. Her character could have easily been the weak link that dragged the movie down, but she was great. Fun movie.
  9. Saw it at one of those 4D IMAX places with the wife and kid. Loved it. Funny and entertaining. I’m a video editor, so can only stomach going to a theater about once every five years and still enjoyed it.
  10. And this is far more tame than the original idea for a sequel that was written shortly after the original premiered 20+ years ago. There’s an actual script written by Nick Cave called Christ Killer (or something like that) with a plot of Maximus being resurrected and fighting battles throughout time. First, in antiquity, then continuing through time and culminating with a battle in WW2 vs Hitler, then Vietnam and finally ending up in the Pentagon. https://www.bbc.com/culture/article/20180810-gladiator-2-was-written-and-its-mad
  11. HSE was in Houston, also. Same company. Astros and Rockets games were on HSE.
  12. I remember the EMF Bulls promo on WGN… “You’re Un-believe-a-BULL!” I also remember catching the final minutes of WGN’s Chicago based newscast every night at 9:55’ish waiting for Seinfeld, Night Court, or Cheers reruns to start.
  13. I went to Wikipedia to see what films he had appeared in recently and stopped counting at 50 since just 2019.
