A profile? In this economy?
I waited to say something in case it got fixed, but...
Episode 81: So good we made it twice!

But what if the trailer I cried to (most recently) was the Wicked: For Good trailer? 😢

I just hit the Hollywood pitch chapter. How long before he announces it's been optioned? 😭

(No bets on when it is or was actually optioned, because I'm aware that he seems to have an agent capable of optioning anything. And this is... a thing.)

Commissioner Gordon should have his badge!

Never share a misspelling with a friend with too much time on his hands. 🤦🏻‍♂️

How I differentiate this from the Fourth Doctor's "The Seeds of Doom" is thinking that someone went "Ooo, 'Death' is a bit much for the Mary Whitehouses, we'll go with 'Doom'" for the later production.

Possibly one of many photos, but it's nice to see.

He got off lucky.

Mmm. Close enough...

Though I suppose there's a third choice...

What people think robots will look like.
Vs.
What they actually look like

Not to doxx myself, but I live a few blocks away. However, I've lived close enough long enough that first the siren went off for three minutes, then I checked the news, then I went Ugh. Time to turn off the AC again.

I found this at the library recently, funny from exaggeration, but not by much.

In Dune, do Mentats have a drinking problem? Because if they're drinking something that stains, why don't they call it a Mentat Moustache? (Which sounds sexual, so... question answered, I guess.)

1983, 1993, same difference. But both are spectacular. ...Oh wow, I remember the cover, I didn't remember this!

I also did the script editing and timing for Nadia and a variety of other titles. But it seems a little surreal that Evangelion is still regularly mentioned, especially in places I wouldn't expect.

(This scene with Robin Williams in One Hour Photo made me have to pause and hold my head. 😂)

I've never seen it in English, and I watched it a LOT. First for fun, second for fan fame (helped fan sub the first 8 episodes), then for pay, (VHS 11-26, LD 1-8, first DVD issue 1-26).

But I did see Tiffany Grant in an Asuka plug suit perform a scene at A-kon! (I didn't know what was happening.)

On the right, Ron Burgundy. On the left, Mr. Mike Brady himself, actor Robert Reed.

I think Lord Summerisle would approve.

Reading Tintin in America, 1931. Tintin blows a hole in the ground, accidentally striking oil. Then he gets offered tens of thousands of dollars from oil men. He explains that it belongs to the native tribe here. "Well, why didn't you say so!" says the man.

Me: Haha... ha... YIKES!

A tragedy he won the primary. Okay, I guess, that he beat Sliwa.

I gathered that novels were silly things for women. MEN wrote POETRY!

You think YOU'RE bad at spelling!

(This is actually a great nerd bar in Houston where I enjoyed a few trivia nights pre-COVID. Had to go as soon as I heard the name.)
