Right after Prince died, D'Angelo went on THE TONIGHT SHOW and performed "Sometimes It Snows In April" with Princess. It remains one of the most beautiful, emotionally raw things I've ever heard. RIP. (Audio-only at this link, but it's still worth hearing.) www.youtube.com/watch?v=FeV7...

To this day, this fake headline about John Goodman changing his name to John Badman never ceases to make me laugh.

D'Angelo's cover of Bill Withers' "Use Me" when I was a teenager was life-changing. I grew up a classic rock & punk kid; just months earlier Nas & my uncles' Run-DMC tapes got me into hip-hop. Then I heard D, I listened to Brown Sugar, and it all changed for ya boy. www.youtube.com/watch?v=cZeq...

the poster for The Thing is so impressive when you break it down. assignment was to depict a monster that can't really be captured in a poster. pure visual metaphor, not based directly on any image in the movie. and genuinely unforgettable!

I'm so mad that a new movie is using the title Kill Me Again and it's unrelated to the John Dahl joint. disrespectful and lame especially considering that Dahl famously started from that title and worked backwards

Measles is actually a really interesting artist. and she's not even really a conservative, she's just super contrarian

some slightly good news from Dad at long last. turns out he had some sort of infection that was causing his fatigue and other symptoms that we all assumed were c-word related. he is still awaiting chemo and other treatment but some antibiotics have him seeming like his old self for 1st time in weeks

one of my best Half Price Books finds was the Batman novel by Andrew Vachss. and the book itself is kind of amazing

one of the things you learn when you read novels that have been adapted to film is that almost all directors, including ones you wouldn't think this would apply to, are CHICKEN

I seriously don't understand how you're supposed to live your day to day life under these conditions (unclear if I am taking about family medical crisis or political turmoil)

I'm thankful to whoever it was who pointed out to me that Flaherty's Neat Guy is subtly but undoubtedly drunk in this sketch

I can't be the only person who thinks she looks pretty good in the costume at the end of Perfect Blue

the Tron franchise reminds me of the Jerry Seinfeld bit about the library being your government funded pathetic friend. Tron is your Disney funded pathetic friend. do you want to come over and hang out with me today? I invited Jared Leto! he's here now! can you come over?

it's awesome that maybe Dr. Manhattan's most famous line in Watchmen is "nothing ever ends" and one of the Kings of Earth who thinks he's smarter than everyone else remembers it as being the exact opposite (and also a cliche)

has there ever been a heroic bloodshed x horror movie?

what the hell

no, I do not wish to behold that at this time

just did a really dorky mashup of a particular song and a particular video to see how they would work together and unfortunately it was both perfect and too embarrassing to ever share with another living soul

let's retool this headline

I watched City of God recently and was thinking about how it used to be near the top of the IMDb Top 250 back in the day (and may still be for all I know, but it never gets talked about)

it's hilarious but unfortunately not surprising that Hard Drive would require stuff like this

He had seen Tanzania, and most of Mozambique was already behind him. There was no mistake. Chippy had done what most chimps only dream about: He had caught the Perfect Vine.

it should be illegal to disguise something sent through the mail as an official government communication or document

a beautiful woman in an Alice Cooper T-shirt just walked into my job ... what reference should I make, Maurice Escargot or Only Women Bleed

I think when I die I want to become a fictional character

two of these films were presented by Elvira but I can't help but think it would be cooler if all four of them were
