They either need to stop putting kids in JURASSIC PARK movies or start killing them. I mentally tune out as soon one of those little shits is in peril. Nothing will happen anyway.

I kinda love that after preaching for six JURASSIC PARK/WORLD movies that life will find a way, REBIRTH just says "Nope, they will die in the modern world".

Oh wow, German Netflix has the 6 hour mini series cut of the original DAS BOOT.

What's crazy is he was supposed to be looking at a CG character right in front of him. In the original footage they even gave him an eyeline reference and he STILL couldn't do it!

DJ on the dance music radio: "Today we play all vinyl. This is for the real ones!"

1st track has really bad vinyl crackle and the first transition is an absolute trainwreck.

Fun fact: This week 30 years ago Mel Brooks hosted the German SNL copy* RTL SAMSTAG NACHT. He never hosted the actual SNL.

*Calling it a copy sells it short. It was very obviously inspired by SNL, but had its own identity and impact on German popculture.

Damn, some frequencies in a few Tomora tracks made my floor vibrate! I love the album!

From a cartoon research article reading “Yogi Bear Whoremonger. In February 1993, Bill Hanna who was then 82 years old was interviewed in USA Today by Jefferson Graham and Hanna did not care for all the updating of classic Hanna-Barbera characters. In reference to NBC’s 1991 Saturday morning animated series Yo, Yogi!, Hanna didn’t hesitate to say, “They screwed it up by re-designing him. They made him look like a whoremonger. If you have something that works, don’t screw it up!””

I think about this a lot

Lower Decks needs some adjusting. S1 feels like a less mean spirited Robot Chicken Star Trek special, but after a rough start it turns into "Hardcore Trekkies have light hearted fun with the franchise".

Oh shiiiiiit, tomorrow we get a new album from Tiga and the Tomora (Tom Rowlands if the Chemical Brothers +Aurora) album comes out too!

Between the HE-MAN and the STREET FIGHTER trailers it's clear that film makers are now comfortable again with making characters look silly, just because that's what they look like in the source material.

I like that!

Was BlueSky down for anybody else?

Dave Chappelle saying it's bad when the pedo party uses his hatespeech because it suddenly has a political context, is the funniest thing he did since he had his own TV show.

Controversial opinion: I liked the 90s GET SMART sequel.

Not saying that we should give people like Cavicular, Kanye and especially Drumpf a free pass because of ther obvious mental illness, but it's a bit hypocritical how we ask to take mental health seriously and try to get rid of certain stigmata, unless the mentally ill person is a real asshole.

Anniversary re-issues of iconic albums that only come out on vinyl are nothing but emberassing cash grabs. Change my mind.

It was released in 1993. The B-side has Al lamenting his life over a dance beat with dialogue samples from the TV show. Kinda like the STUCK ON EARTH song from ALF.

A photo of a CD single. The cover isMostly red, with white silhouettes of shoes and bowling pins. In the middle is a white circle with a yellow ring on the outside. In the middle is a caricature of Al Bundy. The black text in the yellow outer ring says "Der schreckliche Al. Love & Marriage. Ich bin Schuhverkäufer"

Here is a fun obscurity. MARRIED WITH CHILDREN was so popular in Germany, that Rüdiger Bahr, Ed O'Neill's regular German dubbing voice, released a cheesy dance version of the theme song. It wasn't successful.

When people talk about how they don’t make comedies like in the aughts anymore, they’re talking about stuff like THE HANGOVER and KNOCKED UP. But I miss all the weirdo comedies we got like BE KIND REWIND, THE LADYKILLERS and HOT ROD that all felt like were made for four people.

I saw today a trailer for a new MINIONS movie and I shit you not, but they summon Cthulu in this one! And apparently at least one other Lovecraftian creature also appears in it!

A ★★★½ review of The Super Mario Galaxy Movie (2026) I disagree with the common opinion that this movie is overstuffed and just a checklist of video game references. In fact, it feels more like a complete movie than the first, which felt like one or two...

I only recently learned that Handsome Boy Modeling School were a Hip Hop project from Prince Paul and Dan The Automator. The name made me think it was an alternative rock band like Queens Of The Stone Age, Teenage Fanclub or And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead.

I really did not expect how much the new MALCOLM IN THE MIDDLE would ruin my weekend. I'm still incredibly mad at its message. I mean, Lois when straight up to the "No, it's your fault that we hurt you, but we forgive you" abuser handbook and that was the happy ending!

A ★★★ review of Blade of the 47 Ronin (2022) I had fun with it. Nothing special, but it feels like a live action Saturday morning cartoon with more blood splatters and I'm always charmed by that approach. ----- #024 in 2026 DVD

Have you listened to his more alternative pop centric one album sideproject Kid Alex? It's fun.
