I have always loved The Price Is Right whether it is with Bob Barker or Drew Carey. Comes from faking a cold as a kid and getting to watch it w/ my mom on the couch eating chicken soup home from school.

Agree.

Go buy a plastic tool box from Lowe's and then go to a store like Sportsmen's Warehouse and buy the patches, cleaning rods, brush heads, etc. I find the already put together kits have a bunch of stuff i don't need since i only clean handguns.

Stallone in Rocky is the obvious pick here. I thought Schwaznegger was good in Conan too.


That one technically works since he was in The Lords of Flatbush before it but I think of Copland where Stallone proved he could really act.

What is the story behind Coming Home In a Body Bag? I don't remember that part. Great movie. Brad Pitt as Floyd was hilarious.
They're touring this summer. I have tickets for the show at the Tabernacle in Atlanta at the end of May.

It’s been almost 30 years since we had a normal Bond movie where he gets an assignment and goes on a mission. There’s no going rogue. No personal connection. No internal conflict that has him questioning his place in the world. Just a regular Bond movie.


Agree but he does have to stretch the rules a bit. I think this movie would kill because people are tired of the woke b.s. being shoved down their throats.

I would say Brosnan was the beginning of me letting go of the franchise.


Me too, which seems crazy because I was so hyped for him to take the lead. Something about the delay and the Dalton movies ruined that chance.

Starting with the Royal Scam, it all started to sound like elevator music.


What? Royal Scam is great. Kid Charlemagne and Haitian Divorce don't sound like elevator music at all and Aja came out the next year (although that is a more reserved sound). Steely Dan didn't really deliver for decades with no drop in quality though.
David Lynch and Kyle MacLachlan: Dune, Blue Velvet, and the series Twin Peaks.

Scorsese and DeNiro: Mean Streets, Taxi Driver, Raging Bull, The King of Comedy, Goodfellas, Cape Fear, Casino.

he can be the smoking, merciless hard drinking poon hound without triggering the sensitivities of the "modern audience".


If only this were true. They can instill some fun and adventure back into the series though.
What a great creepy movie. Reminded me a lot of Stephen King's It, but this was a much better story. Aunt Gladys was creepy af.
quote:

That Billy version sucks so bad I have to wonder if he was making fun of the song. He's doing the Dana Carvey bit about guitar players acting like magicians with every chord change.


and he just mumbles the lyrics. Never understood the appeal of that guy. Great guitarist but there are a lot of those.
