Even Reiner's throwaway lines are classic. One of my favorite responses to an insult is, "I'm just as God made me, sir!" (Indignantly)

I don't always remember I'm quoting the hotel desk guy any more. It's just part of my lexicon, like so many things I stole from Rob Reiner movies.

Just went to the library today, and noticed they updated their classification system. Instead of a separate "horror" section, now scary books are a subcategory of fiction called "Fiction (UnCanny)."

Anyway, catching up on my @stephenking.bsky.social this evening...

Why do so many productions of Richard II cast York as an old man, when Shakespeare clearly wrote the character as a smart ass middle-schooler?

The director of "Die Another Day" died today. Does that count as irony? Like, a very short-term, limited-time irony? Then tomorrow it will just be sad.

(Unless Roger Spottiswoode, director of Tomorrow Never Dies, dies tomorrow. Then irony again? Am I overthinking this? Please, make my brain stop.)

This Napoleon Dynamite/ Full House crossover is a lot darker than I expected.

My kid was trying to find One Battle After Another Fortnite skins, and Google AI invented the WILDEST conspiracy theory in response.

I just spent $15 and 3 hours of my life watching that fake movie. So if it was a viral marketing prank, they sure got me.

After extensive market research, Dunkin' Donuts found this to be more effective than their previous slogan, "YOU WILL EAT THE DONUT THAT HAS BEEN PROVIDED FOR YOU!"

I'm reading a book called Chapterhouse, which is convenient, because Chapter House is what I call books.

Finally this story has been lovingly and faithfully realized on film, exactly as H.G. Wells imagined it. Thank you, Ice Cube.

Spielberg's shameful omission of the crucial character "Mark Faith Boyfriend" and his Amazon drone has at last been rectified.

Wiki-Obits:
1. On the same day
2. Right next to each other in alphabetical order, we lost
3. Two English musicians from the late '60s
4. Whose given names were John Michael
5. And who went by a nickname that was a shortened version of their last name.

R.I.P. John Michael "Ozzy/Poli" Osborne/Palmer.

Just saw a sweet, family-friendly, yet surprisingly faithful remake of Werner Herzog's Aguirre, The Wrath of God.

Unedited edition? So, just 60 hours of raw daily footage? Every take from every angle in the order it was shot?
Who needs Thelma Schoonmaker anyway?
