LOL, Richard on today's classic Family Feud... Somehow, the conversation had turned to a boxing match between Ali and someone else, and one of the ladies he was talking to was saying about how pretty Ali was, but then she said that Richard was prettier (oh, yes...). Richard soaks this in for a moment, turns to the camera calmly... and then yells ( Read more... )

And the 30-Day Disney movie, Day 26: Saddest death

Definitely Mufasa from The Lion King; as I mentioned a couple entries ago, The Lion King was the movie that made me cry the most.

Bleh, today was so unproductive. I had planned to get a lot of writing done, but then I was dragged along to a shopping trip, and that ruined any plans I had. And tomorrow's schedule looks full, too; this is going to out my writing schedule way behind... Oh, well...

So, thanks to the Encore Western channel, I finally got to see a movie I had been wanting to see for a long time--The Raiders, which starred Robert Culp as Wild Bill Hickok. I'm semi-familiar with him; he guest-starred once on The Cosby Show and I know he was in I Spy. even if I haven't seen it. But, honestly, the main reason I was watching The ( Read more... )

I currently have "Papa Gene's Blues" by the Monkees stuck in my head--got that watching one of the season 1 eps (working my way through those; I'll probably post about the season as a whole when I finish). Mike, why did you have to write such an earworm? ...Not that I mind too much--it's an awesome song.

LOL, wow. So, I my satellite guide was showing that the Chiller channel was showing a bunch of the classic Outer Limits eps. I already have Simon Oakland's ep on my DVR and have already seen Richard Dawson's, but I still decided to skim through the summaries anyway and see who was in them. So, I'm reading through the names in one of the eps ( Read more... )

So, is anyone else following the new series Once Upon a Time? I hadn't intended to, but Faye convinced me to check it out when it premiered 3 weeks ago, and I must admit that it is growing on me (as is A Gifted Man--it started off alright, but it's definitely getting better). Regina/the Evil Queen is as awful as she's ever been (and Maleficent is ( Read more... )

The 30-Day Disney movie, Day 20: Favorite sequel

I thought about this long and hard and realized that I never really liked any of the movie sequels too much, so I'm going to go with Kingdom Hearts II. KH2 really expanded everything--you got revisit worlds and got to interact with older characters more, plus whenever you got to have new guest star ( Read more... )

New musing for the Simon Oakland tribute blog: you can read it here.

And, in other news, I rediscovered the pricelessness that is classic Garfield. I'm talking about the old comics and cartoons--he's a bit too mean in the newer comics, though the CGI cartoon does seem to keep his nicer personality from Garfield and Friends. Favorite moments are ( Read more... )

I couldn't resist a peek into the Kolchak Compendium so I very briefly skimmed through it. I had to inwardly "Awwwwww" when, in one of his monologues, Carl referred to Tony as his "only true friend ( Read more... )
