It’s very weird to me how we, as a society, have collectively agreed that OFF THE WALL was Michael Jackson’s first solo album and not his fifth.

The Westboro Baptist Church was first and foremost an elaborate, multi-generational insurance fraud scheme.

Now seated.

Between this and HALLOWEEN III, Dan O’Herlihy always seemed to have the best time playing an evil little shit.

Pete Martell and Andrew Packard in TWIN PEAKS, being a couple of scamps.

The back half of TWIN PEAKS season 2 remains as rough going as ever, but I do genuinely love the Pete Martell-Andrew Packard bromance.

This is a great piece, but it also makes me wish they used reverse-CLIFFORD trickery to turn John Malkovich into a giant in SHADOW OF THE VAMPIRE.

Jeffrey and Evelyn Marsh in the worst storyline of TWIN PEAKS season 2. Jeffrey is wearing an Air Jordan track jacket.

It’s weird to think that Michael Jordan exists in the TWIN PEAKS universe,

I’m sure I didn’t hear the Germano song until 20 years after the fact, but it’s a shockingly specific recreation of how I imagined Generation X as a child in the ‘90s.

The answer is either “Groove Is in the Heart” by Deee-Lite or “Cancer of Everything” by Lisa Germano, depending on which version of the ‘90s you’re talking about.

Coffee cup with “O C W” written on it (for “orange cardamom - whole”). The O and C together look like a round pair of glasses and the W looks like a mustache. The lid even looks like a little porkpie hat.

Not sure if that’s shorthand for my order or the barista just drew a picture of me on the cup.

Working on a theory that TWIN PEAKS: THE RETURN was the high water mark of television as an art form, and that TOO MANY COOKS was the high water mark of television as a medium.

Why does the porridge bird lay his eggs in the air?

For Boston Hassle I reviewed THE CHRISTOPHERS, one of Steven Soderbergh’s warmest and most human movies in ages (and sadly, if he keeps on using AI, for ages to come). bostonhassle.com/review-the-c...

It’s like MURDER, SHE WROTE / Once I get you out them clothes.

I choose to believe this is a reference to ANGELA LANSBURY’S POSITIVE MOVES.

It’s actually a contraction of “Lee Cronin Is the Mummy.”

Not much better than a locally owned theater with actual matinee pricing, especially when they stretch “matinee” to like 5:30.

Beyond the rudeness, I’m always just baffled when someone takes out their phone in a theater. Why would you look at social media when you could be watching a movie? They’re so much better!

Earnestpost: Every single time I see a movie in a theater (which is generally 2-3 times a week) I take a moment to appreciate how cool it is that I’m seeing a movie in a theater.

Even if it’s bad, or I’m just there on assignment, or the sound sucks or there’s an annoying guy in the theater. Movie theaters are so cool and it’s so cool to be in one.
