  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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
  4. HSE was in Houston, also. Same company. Astros and Rockets games were on HSE.
  5. 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.
  6. I went to Wikipedia to see what films he had appeared in recently and stopped counting at 50 since just 2019.
  7. Save it Costanza, we know you’re bald.
  8. China’s version of OSHA might be at the bottom of it.
  9. Things that lived in the ocean didn’t need an ark to be rescued, no?
  10. This Serbian ambassador has the same tailor as Tommy Boy.
  11. Very little real dialogue in Rocky IV. It's something like 40% montage. Peak 80's and I love it. Someone is notably missing from contributing music to this music heavy movie.. you guessed it! Frank Stallone. He must have been at odds with his brother during this stretch, because everyone, but him, contributes a song.
  12. They could show a few less Air Disasters, but otherwise almost perfect channel for my aging, uncool self. I’ve seen every Aerial America at least five times. The Mighty Trains and Mighty Ships series are my current favorites of their newer stuff.
  13. Klinghoffer is having no trouble finding work these days. He’s toured as much as anyone the past two years.
  14. I don’t think I’ve ever met a Rush fan that didn’t really, really, holy fucking shit really love the shit outta that band.
  15. This movie was on loop in the house I rented in college for most of 1999-2000. My two roommates and I cut cable and owned one VCR and one movie. Good times….
  16. Joe Burrow with killer sweatpants postgame. He needs to drench himself in velvet next weekend
