Galaxy Quest (1999)

Sigourney Weaver: “I wish they put out a director’s cut of the movie because, at the last minute, DreamWorks decided to release the movie with some of the more sophisticated scenes cut that Alan [Rickman] was in because it needed a kids’ movie to go up against Stuart Little.”

One of the funniest things... or saddest.
MOST mistletoe farms in the USA don't use climbing to get mistletoe... in very typical USAness... we use shotguns. (The vibration more than load knocks the clump down but also makes microfractures for next year's)
Usually ladders mean someone is *poaching*

Merry Yule! It’s the shortest day of the year and we can now look forward to the return of the light! The Romans seem to have been a bit confused about measuring the daylight and celebrated Sol on 25th December instead. That will never catch on!

Not only was Rob Reiner a brilliant, genre-hopping film director, he also fought for other people’s projects when he didn’t need to. Most notably, he saved Seinfeld from cancellation, allowing it to grow into a juggernaut that changed the rules of comedy

How Rob Reiner Saved Seinfeld From Being Canceled On NBC - SlashFilm
NBC might have canceled Seinfeld shockingly early in its run had sitcom veteran and A-list filmmaker Rob Reiner not stepped in.

Rob Reiner: I'm going to make a coming of age drama, a fantasy adventure story, a romantic comedy, a psychological horror and then a courtroom drama.

Us: Across your entire career?

Reiner: In a 6 year period.

Us: That sounds-

Reiner: -Each one will be arguably the best movie in that genre.

Living in San Francisco is great because you’ll meet a new person who seems nice and perfectly reasonable and slowly throughout the conversation it will become clear what kind of cult they are in.

So love wobbegongs. Everything is good about the wobbegong. Its name. Its flattened Oscar the Grouch face. Its frondy bits. Its lazy life as a hungry rug. And it’s a shark. Outstanding animal 10/10
The Tasselled Wobbegong is a master of disguise that can eat a fish almost as big as itself in one gulp. It's classified as a shark, but when it lays on the sea floor it looks like a harmless rug if you manage to see it. But with powerful jaws and sharp teeth they are no fish to mess with.
