As far as I know, yes!

Disclaimer: I often do not know as much as I think I do.

I can all but guarantee that one of them was O Brother, Where Art Thou? wasn't it?

Nah, that's an obscure one (Costner & Dern, right?). I saw it 'cause my mum rented it on VHS in the 90s, and I've never seen it appear on tv, or dvd, or netflix, or on anyone's list of anything. Good catch!

Ha, I failed at 22. I put Castaway instead of Cast Away, and I also assumed the plastic bag (?) was an American Beauty reference. Forgot what my 3rd mistake was though.

My body is ready.

Ah, you're right! I didn't see Boter's post.

Probably for the best. I have a lot to do this week.

Bump or something. Just spent almost half an hour searching for this gem before I realized I first found this here.

DEAR FUTURE HERC: That electro-swing track you really like is Gimme That Swing by Cissie Redgwick.

Okay, in Jaws: The Revenge, Michael Caine's character is a drug-runner. Not much of this is left in the final movie, but it is there. Anyway, at the end, when he lands his plane in the water, they should have had the shark attack the plane so he loses his "cargo". Seeing it disappear into the ocean, he would have shouted "MY COCAINE!!!" which would just sound like Michael Caine shouting his own name.

And then could have winked at the camera, 'cause the rest of this movie spends 90 minutes saying "fuck it", so why not.

For sure, considering our different timezones and jobs and whatnot, we're doing just fine

The Gate (1987)

Canadian-American horror movie for kids. The first half is 80s and ropey and underwhelming, and then the second half has some of the most wonderful practical effects (in terms of ingenuity on a budget) I've seen in quite awhile. (And one shot in particular has leapt immediately into my top 10 practical effects ever).

Check it out if you're in the mood for appreciating old-school effects and have 90 minutes to spare (or 45 if you can't be bothered with the first half)!

I'm fine with taking a break this week. Means I can spend more time on my balcony (why did I have to wait until September to get the most comfortable, perfectly lovely temperature in Montreal?).
