Decades ago, right after college, I was ecstatic finding the soundtrack for The Harder They Come on CD. Now I feel the need to check if I still have it (my CDs are still in boxes because no CD player anymore).

LEGO released a #JAWS diorama in August 2024, and I had no idea.

I'm not a huge enough LEGO fan that I would assemble and display this, but I think I'd like to someday add it to my JAWS collection... and now I'm wondering if there are JAWS #puzzles out there I don't know about.

Nice to find other fans of this series! Would love to do a video overview like this myself, maybe Forever Knight or The Hitchhiker.

Would love it if Kino Lorber did a Studio Classics home video release of The Hitchhiker, since they also did Kolchak & Outer Limits.

That Nike World Series "end credits" is low key petty, but I can't stop laughing.

I'm a happy Dodgers fan now, but was low key rooting for Toronto because, like the Orioles, it's been forever since a championship.

I'm good, but Nike throwing salt in that Kendrick vs Drake wound like this... yikes.
