I think it’d bring a bit of levity to these trying times if Conan O’Brien had Werner Herzog back on his podcast to talk about Labubus.

Working on Basher I hadn’t even considered being interviewed about it. Let alone on an actual baseball specific site. Definitely shows I am far more knowledgeable about baseball films than the actual game.
Give it a read and let me know your favorite baseball film.

Fango is sad to hear the news of Scott Spiegel's passing. Spiegel, a lifelong friend and collaborator of Sam Raimi, co-wrote EVIL DEAD 2 and wrote/directed the 1989 slasher INTRUDER in addition to his many film credits.

We were going to do another big marketing stunt for THE TOXIC AVENGER UNRATED. Instead, Toxie, whose life was upended by crushing medical bills, has joined forces with Undue Medical Debt to erase at least $5 million in un-payable medical debt for those who need it most.
