Your friendly neighborhood shepherdess cuddling babies and wielding the crook as needed. The gravy boat is still rocking but I'm hanging on and enjoying the ride best I can. INTJ. Christian. Classic movie buff and 90s baby. Bibliophile for life.

“Hot dogs holler! Hot links with red sauce, mustard, hot onions; you name it!”

Yep. THEY were the ones who put their eggs in one SFX-budgeted basket.

Iger got snippy about it. The CEO. Let that sink in. The Russos have been obsessed with it ever since. The fans circle back every now and again. (Scorsese doesn’t care.)

I am no shrink but I think Martin hit a tender spot, an insecurity. There was no reason to go scorched earth on him like that.

Disney was pushing the Academy to make a new category so it could win Best Picture. The box office was theirs. Even the wackiest, most obscure characters were raking in the cash.

And that little director had the nerve to speak up, saying something mild as an aside, but still heresy

The slow collapse of this cultural juggernaut is going to be studied alongside the downfall of 1960s mega epics. It may come back from the grave but the must-see, can’t-miss aspect is very difficult to revive once it is gone.

Scorsese made an offhand remark when the series was at its height

Hot dogs holler and the conviction hit them heavily. They understood full well what he meant and the emotional as well as tangible truth behind his statement (and the subsequent macro commentary about the direction of film and what gets promoted) hit too close to home for them.
