He was also good in 10 Cloverfield Lane but he was so fat at that point it looked like he was ready to have 3 heart attacks at once.

Well now that 2017's almost over it looks like he's back to the attractive John Goodman we all knew from Tiger beat magazine

Back on Itchy and Scratchy, some useless trivia; apparently, they're actually inspired more closely by Herman and Katnip; a Tom and Jerry imitator whose claim to fame was being significantly more violent and action-packed, most of it directed towards the cat. I wouldn't be surprised to see a reboot/significant retool of The Simpsons. Probably starting with replacing as many voice actors as they can; at this point they're ageing, demanding massive salaries to keep performing, or both. That and they might merge Fox's animation department with Disney's 2D animation division, which has been getting more of a workout lately. (I have noted that since the end of the 90s golden age, Disney's had at least one action-oriented 2D cartoon ongoing, probably as much to keep the studio working so they don't lose the talent even when it's gone out of fashion for theatrical features) And at this point, it's not like the fans can get any more pissed off.

I feel like The Simpsons should have moved to the two stories per episode, like lots of cartoons these days do. If they can’t get the plots to converge in the end (and can’t give enough time to wrap up the B plot) they might as well completely seperate them.

From what I know about the Simpsons, the writers and voice actors have really strong contracts that gives an enormous amount of power to the showrunner instead of the network. I'm not sure how the rights are handled exactly, but I have to assume Disney execs trying to assert their authority (likely through firings/replacements) on a writers room that's used to not having to deal with execs will end really ugly. Groening expected a similar deal for Futurama, and the writing team really chafed under executive notes. The protectionism probably played a role in the Simpsons' decline, since it's such a plum position, writers just stick around forever, and everything becomes calcified and by the motions. At the same time, I'm not going to celebrate a megacorp busting up a creative-favoring contract just because it means rebooting a 30 year old show from my childhood.

datajugend posted:I loved the blues brothers movie as a kid and was really pumped when i heard a new one was coming. Blues brothers 2000 was one of the first movies that made me realize a movie can be really poo poo. The song choices are generally pretty good and for the most part they're well-performed, but they all look like loving music videos. The original one was more like an older musical where the music is mostly justified by the story. In BB2000 they just stop the plot for a music video then get back to the movie (e.g. Wilson Pickett and Eddie Floyd doing "634-5789"). The two big ones are Blues Traveler and then the jam on "New Orleans" at the end. The former has John Popper going up to Dan Aykroyd and gushing about what a big fan he is and how he's keen for Elwood to hear his band, he says, "Great! I'll go get 'em, Mr Blues!" then it cuts to a Blues Traveler music video, and when they stop playing, Popper goes back to where he saw Elwood (who's split) and goes, "Mr Blues? Where did you go?" "New Orleans" at the end is like one of those all-star jams they do at awards shows where everybody pops in, sings their allotted two lines or plays their guitar solo, then peaces out. In the first Blues Brothers, the musical guests (Ray Charles, James Brown, Aretha Franklin, the Blues Brothers band etc.) are also all playing characters, but in BB2000 they're just playing themselves.

Something I appreciate in Demolition Man after all the other 90s movies/tv shows/games terrible assumptions of "manhood", is that Stallone is never feminized just because he's a competent seamstress now. He never alters his behaviour and no one assumes that he's more femme than he is because he can knit - it's just a thing that he can do, while doing all the other stereotypically macho things he does like hunting Phoenix he also finds time to knit. Most other things then and even now use those behaviours as something to mock in a man, like Rajj in Big Bang Theory was often considered effeminate just because of his hobbies. Demolition Man was ahead of it's time. The closest thing is when Stallone first finds out about it (and to be fair his "I'M A SEAMSTRESS?!" is a hilarious line read  ), but the connotation of his reaction is less "Eww gay" and more "Simon Phoenix is a supersoldier and they made me a seamstress? Seriously..." It's just another thing weighting the odds against him.

Krispy Wafer posted:If you didn't seesaw back and forth between which Becky you loved most then I don't know what to say. I really liked original Becky's monologue to Darlene about how she doesn't have the luxury to mope and feel sorry for herself and have everybody tip-toe around her like Darlene does because there are things to be done around the house that mom and dad just pile onto Becky because they wanted to coddle Darlene during her phase. BioEnchanted posted:I think my personal favourite moment was Dan confronting Leon after finding out that he really was planning on ousting Roseanne from her own restaurant. I like when Dan beat the poo poo out of Jackie's abusive boyfriend after Darlene accidentally walks in on Jackie in the bathroom and sees all of her bruises. Plus the episode ended with John Goodman singing Jail House Rock. BioEnchanted posted:I didn't even know that show was supposed to be about those lions. It was just a dull sitcom about lions living in a standard house from what I recall. Bolt did similar subject matter in a more interesting way. (Clarification: Not making GBS threads on Bolt, I love that movie.) From the time I was born up until age four or five we lived about two or three blocks from Siegfried and Roy's house in Las Vegas (this white mansion with white walls / gates and two blocks away are small duplexes). My dad could hear the cats roaring when he came home from work.

Edit: Not a TV show and I may have mentioned it before but loving Animal House has aged very terribly. Maybe it does count because I think there was a TV show based on it and there is some funny poo poo in it, but... Holy poo poo is that movie overall problematic and just plain creepy. That passed out underage girl with the devil and angel and the dude deciding whether to rape her not. Yikes. Faking the relationship of the girl who died at the sorority house. Lotta hosed up poo poo in that film. BiggerBoat has a new favorite as of 00:09 on Dec 16, 2017 |

Been watching some Star Trek TOS, and just watched The Omega Glory, and wow that one... well, first it doesn't make much sense, they never really explain why these humans are here and all that, but also shows some... interesting '60's ideas on race. I assume it was, at the time, notably more progressive than it seems now? But still, oof.

I watched some episodes of Static Shock because nostalgia and it's hilarious how "one of the good ones" Virgil is. He's constantly saying stuff like "rap music, more like noise!" and making fun of mutated urban youths for wearing their pants too low.
