Goodness is what's most likely to make me cry these days. Seems like a sad sign of the times...

Yeah, Canadian here - we're pretty serious about the US boycott - started out as a screw you for the annexation and tariff threats but I think now we're just scared to go there like everyone else. Hope it's not messing with your mom's job!

BLOW OUT is a good one. Both De Palma and Travolta at their bests.

Interesting - I was just thinking of the old grindhouse classic, "Somebody Hurry Up and Blow that Evil Motherfucker's Head Off"

Yeah I'm already at my max level of armageddonal concern with the US and Russia having nukes - Iran having them doesn't move the needle. And there is simply no fairness in two nuclear powers telling a sovereign nation that it can't have what they have, and then bombing them for not obeying. Like wtf

Great essay! JAWS is one of my earliest memories and the film love of my life - totally agree that it's a movie young kids can (and should!) handle. It's my 10 yo's favourite movie since he saw it at 5 and definitely helped shape him into the focussed and critical movie-watcher he is today.

I remember first noticing that during coverage of the Michael Brown-related riots - all the "violence is never the solution" tsk tsking - it's said so casually, but you'd have to be savagely ignorant to actually believe it's true.

If by "remove" you mean "hang" I second your motion.

Yo, I just watched that for the first time last week and wondered where it had been all my life (oh yeah, on my shelf not even unwrapped for like 10 years). Instant all-timer for me - DDL is phenomenal.

Too many people have forgotten the concept of social investing - programs like these don't COST - they pay dividends (and/or save other money) almost immediately. Fiscal conservatives should LOVE shit like this.

Thanks for making a Superman movie I’m excited to watch with my kids - it’s been awhile!

Sweet, I made the cut! :P Bummed i had to miss the first five of an amazing lineup, but the finale was a banger as always! Thanks guys! #fthismoviefest
