Also on Christmas Eve

The other idea I’ve had for 20 years is a noir called BEDFORD FALLS, about as returning war vet who lives alone and is traumatized, and watches Harry come home a hero, and works a fucked up murder in Potter’s tenements, in the shadow of the Baileys’ bigger struggle

And he has a son and it’s called Brisco County Jr Jr

This also yet again brings up my vigilante movie where Kreese and Silver come back from Vietnam and found Kobra Kai to fight street crime called KOBRA KAI ‘75

I would include Oswald the Lucky Rabbit in this list

I also asked @heatherantos.bsky.social if we could do Mighty Mouse

Get Smart (with zero updates to the technology)
The Adventures of Brisco County Jr.
Rocket Jockey (1996 video game)
Maniac Mansion / Day of the Tentacle (1987/1993 LucasArts Games)

Oh dude. It’s sick. Original vehicle molds but you can put the decals on yourself. Action effect accessories for masks and vehicles. Figures have been remodeled along with Masks. All on Big Bad Toy Store

Yep

New office toys:

McFarlane Shohei Ohtani
+tiny Bad Ash starting shit

M.A.S.K. Mobile Defense Unit
w/ Bruce ready to roll and Matt shooting Spectrum from the cab
+Scott ready to put himself needlessly in danger

I mean under the gas mask maybe but I can’t pry it off

Old school, like going back to Department of War

I’ll need a frothy tossed blonde wig I guess

Luke Skywalker concept art figure with blue jumpsuit, gas mask, red goggles, white lightsaber

Okay yeah, this will be my Halloween costume.

“Excuse me, Ed, did you say you wanted to see a body…?”

ROONEY! RRRNGH. ROONEY! LISTEN HERE, PAY ATTENTION

I CHANGED MY MIND

I WANT YOU OUT IN FRONT OF THE SCHOOL WITH HER I’D LIKE TO HAVE A FEW WORDS WITH YOU BY GOD—

I WANT MY DAUGHTER OUT IN FRONT OF THE SCHOOL IN TEN MINUTES

BY HERSELF—

Hey Newsom sucks.

Does Ohtani’s on-base streak snap tonight if he only reached on error?

You…you’re my man

*incomparable. Damn phones / my brain are getting worse. My brain are bad times now today for good

Superman lifts a giant robot up through a mountain.

Happy Superman Day.

If you ever want to read a fun story that feels like a Fleischer cartoon, check out “Superman & the Order of the Black Lamp” from me and the I comparable @javierrodriguez.bsky.social.

Decoder rings, hidden mountain fortresses, and Hop Harrigan.

Picking out a shirt to wear to an event with lots of moms and young kids is so stressful for me. Do I wear the Pope’s Exorcist shirt? the They Live shirt? the The Shining shirt? the Slap Shot shirt? the Christopher Moltisanti in a neck brace shirt? What is the best way to ensure no one speaks to me

HAHA

Clockwise: Walter Matthau points a gun in The Laughing Policeman, Walter Matthau eats chips in old man makeup in Sunshine Boys, Matthau answers the phone in Fortune Cookie, Matthau holds his hands up in a bow tie in Front Page, Matthau manhandles Elvis in King Creole, Matthau wears headphones in old man makeup in Kotch

Well @eccantwell.bsky.social is leaving on a weeklong camping trip with her high school students in two weeks, so that means it’s be time for me to do my MATTHAUTHON, where I catch up on every Matthau movie I haven’t seen while she’s gone:

There are many reasons to watch THE TERROR: DEVIL IN SILVER when it premieres May 7th…

…but chief among them is that you get to see Alex’s artwork on Dan Stevens’ chest for a ton of the show.

And the you need to read HELLCAT and BRIAR from me and Alex, too.

Babe I’m over here watching The Way We Were on my couch and playing Peter Gabriel’s So in the car like I’m not even trying anymore
