Jurassic Park Spitters (1992-1994): A line of tropical fruit-flavored jawbreakers released to promote "Jurassic Park". They were sold with plastic dispensers shaped like dinosaur heads, that would "spit" out the candy.

Superman Raisins (1982-1986): Snack-sized boxes of raisins, bearing the image and likeness of the Man of Steel, who could be seen on every box dumping a presumably gargantuan barrel of football-sized raisins onto a seemingly endless raisin horde, located in an empty, peach-colored void

I’m just gonna chronicle the dated references in THE SPY WHO SHAGGED ME as they come. Star Wars crawl gag, a kid would know what that was but it’s only really there because Phantom Menace was in theaters at the time so I’m gonna mention it here

Minnesota legend Charles M. Schulz knew what made a great citizen. “Sometimes it is the very people who cry out the loudest in favor of getting back to what they call ‘American Virtues’ who lack this faith in our country.”

Coca Cola Georgia Peach (2018-2020): An "artisan cola" made with cane sugar & real Georgia-grown peaches, and sold in glass bottles. Per Coca-Cola, it was "inspired by sodas that were hand-mixed at the neighborhood drugstores during a bygone era."

They put this guy front and center of a lot of EWOKS: BATTLE FOR ENDOR posters but he never shows up. Wilford Brimley erasure!

I’m fine with Marvel slop and will show up to the trough whenever they shovel more in. But I kind of get what people are feeling when I see how many tv show rewatch podcasts there are out there. Way too many to even consider.

I’ve seen “the Maclunkey cut” of STAR WARS (1977) in theaters twice now. They really should keep it in the cut they release for the 50th next year. It deserves an audience.

Mother Fletcher’s Sooper Joose (1971-1972):A vaguely cherry-flavored cola from Canada Dry, marketed (with a tongue-in-cheek fictional lore) as a counter-cultural "bootleg soft drink", produced off the grid in a still by a deaf old woman. It was sold/tested exclusively in Dallas, TX and Rochester, NY

If I had any pull at Warner Bros, I would have them making more Looney Tunes shorts that are parodies of famous Warner Bros movies. I can’t think of two better stars to remake HEAT in 7 minutes.

"All is lost" narratives are popular because people generally do not want to take action. Taking action is tiring so if all is lost, you are off the hook. Nothing is more seductive than not having to do anything.
