How easy are the Extended Editions to get on Netflix, etc.?  I'm thinking of people who might want to follow along at home, either at the time or later.  Can you get them via seamless branching on the regular DVDs?  If the only way to get 'em is to buy those special DVD sets, that might make it hard. 

If you find yourselves with time to kill, you can always set Teague up at the piano and improvise one of those old Golden Age of Radio shows:  "And now from the magnificent Palmer House high over Chicago asking that musical question...."

Easy enough to grab.  I'll get it.

I'll take Back to the Future, and am happy to do others if nobody wants them.  I got a lotta housework to do.

Edit:  Missed that BDA had done half of it.  I'll take Batman Returns instead.

Edited edit:  Right, I'll do Batman Returns and finish BTTF.

Well, striking while the iron (fist) is hot, it would seem.  We'll see what happens when/if the bottom falls out of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.  I think we should be about as excited as we were/are for Agents of SHIELD, with perhaps a slight uptick if we think it's going to be a slightly less high-profile/expensive thing, and therefore less prone to micro-management and the lowest common denominator.  In other words, who knows?

A couple quick things from The Avengers:

00:09:22 - 00:10:10  Trey's goddamn criticism of the goddamn first 20 goddamn minutes of the goddamn movie (46s)
01:01:11 - 01:03:00  Trey on the "he's adopted" controversy (1m49s)

I'll stake a claim for Cowboys & Aliens.  Been meaning to see it and I've got a drive that's just the right length.  As usual, I'll update here.

Edit:  here 'tis.  All uploaded

00:23:45 - 00:24:57  Is Olivia Wilde actually a human being? (1m12s)
01:03:14 - 01:05:19  Trey's alien tactics masterclass:  say AAARRR, punch and bite, and be naked (2m05s)
01:12:10 - 01:14:26  Teague's existential moment re Harrison Ford (plus celebrity superheroes) (2m 15s)
01:35:23 - 01:38:34  The problem of an alien/advanced civilization's motivations (3m 12s)
01:41:39 - 01:42:10  Alien/Advanced Civ motivations, part 2 (1m 26s) (could be edited with previous if you want something longer)

Here's some stuff from Star Trek II, which I happened to notice in the chat Teague was looking for

00:38:13 - 00:39:40 Star Trek fight choreography and Eddie fights the Gorn (1m27s)
01:22:13 - 01:23:01 More appalling fight choreography (53s) (you could probably edit the first  two together and synch it with the film at the point where this bit starts)
01:37:27 - 01:38:03 Kirk's son's goofy sweater (35s)
01:39:47 - 01:41:10 Is there cock sucking in hell, and, if so, what form does it take? (1m24s)

Ok, done.  I'll take the Pepsi Popcorn Challenge with The Princess Bride.  I haven't seen it in more than 20 years, mind, and maybe I was just in a bad mood, but it seems like anything less than total adoration will make it appropriate for this thread. 

I'll get back to you by the end of the day.
