1. Busey shines in a largely made up biopic.
2. Thriller highlights possibilities, ethics, dangers of synthetic intimacy.
3. Hutton, Madigan, and Rooker are great in a middling King movie.
4. Frost fires his gun in the air and yells AHH!

If you had to talk about any topic for one hour, what would it be?

This grid:
Pictures of six film directors, listed vertically and horizontally in a grid format. The directors are, from top to bottom and left to right, Martin Scorsese, Steven Spielberg, Spike Lee, the Coen Brothers, David Fincher, and Stanley Kubrick. On the left, vertically, are the words "Is made by..." At the top, horizontally, are the words "Feels Like...".

Boy howdy it did. To this day, just seeing this picture of Gary Sinise and Molly Ringwald transports me to the time I spent reading it. 🐦‍⬛
1994 paperback cover of The Stand by Stephen King. The paperback was a tie-in with the ABC miniseries, and includes a photo of Gary Sinise and Molly Ringwald holding one another.

This was one of my favorite pieces of comic relief in 2020.
Mark Borchardt from the documentary American Movie with the word COVID in front of him, a reference to his unusual pronunciation of the word "coven" with a long ō.

#Pittie
Una, a brown American Pit Bull Terrier with white patches on her snout and paws, along with some white peppered on her mouth, wears a green hoodie and rests in the sunbeam on a gray blanket in a big comfy green recliner. Her sweet brown eyes look peaceful as she stares at her human's bagel with cream cheese (not pictured).

Me liking posts in other people's conversations that concern me not
The Phantom Menace (1999) Qui-Gon Jinn holds Anakin Skywalker on his shoulder in celebration of a podracing win, which in turn, freed Anakin from slavery. Meanwhile, circled in red in the background, is Anakin's friend Kitster, who has not won his freedom from slavery, and has a phony, half-assed smile on his face as he stares into the middle distance.

Must-see material for any Trekkie! 🖖

Here's one I made in tribute.
Scene from the TV series Star Trek: Enterprise (2001-2005) of Linda Park as Ensign Hoshi Sato (human), Jolene (née Blalock) as Sub-Cmdr. T'Pol (Vulcan), and Scott Bakula as Capt. Jonathan Archer (human), who was originally holding and petting his beloved beagle Porthos in the image. All humanoids are scantily clad in the decontamination room, likely having manually covered one another with decontamination gel, somehow resisting the urge to have an orgy. The women wear skin tight bottoms and sports bra-like tops with their midriffs exposed. Capt. Archer wears blue shorts and no shirt. Porthos has been replaced with the fluffy orange and white Muppet dog Barkley from Sesame Street.

That "Boot Liker" claim is valid.
Yeoman Janice Rand, played by the lovely Grace Lee Whitney in the first season of Star Trek: The Original Series. She is in her iconic red uniform with black accents, including black tights or pantyhose, and wears a French braided blonde beehive hairstyle and sleek, shiny, black mid-calf length boots.

If you see this, post a vampire who isn't Dracula .
Julie Benz circa 1997 as Darla in the Buffy the Vampire Slayer TV series. In vampire form, she has pale, grayish white skin, intense yellow eyes, an exaggerated devilish brow, and fanged teeth. Beautiful but monstrous, she has blonde hair, full pale pink lips, smooth skin, and wears a stylish white collared shirt under a black jacket or sweater.
