If the Paul Mescal/Denzel Washington thing works out in Gladiator II, I'm going to be ready to swoop in with a VIR2OSITY script with Mescal as Sid 6.8.

I think they are all Ash and an alternate title for the movie is FOUR ARMS TO HOLD YOU. (The other four are chainsaws)

"It's me, Tom. From Top Gun. Top Gun: Maverick." -Tom Cruise introducing himself to Glenn Powell every time you're seeing them together in some photo from a Twisters red carpet event. It's just how he does business, it's the right way to do it.

I would start watching House of the Dragon again if they did an episode where a character is shockingly killed off by getting hit by a foul ball in an inter-mural softball game meant to help bring the various houses together.

I would have also somehow found a way for a brief "Doctor Sun, Sorcerer Supreme" arc, with Blade, Doom, Reed, and Strange/Clea all annoyed by having to deal with a damn vampire brain robot temporarily having the title.

I think about Doctor Sun all the time and cannot believe no one has brought him back in almost 45 years. Vampire Brain In A Robot Body, the greatest high-concept character that nobody ever uses. The very first villain I'd break out if I ever had a Marvel job.

Thought about maybe a "You must be chuffed..." but in a way where I'm pretty sure that's a good thing but still leaving room where it means bad in case I'm wrong.

Workshopping some stuff so I can join in the British politics conversation. So far leaning towards: -"Yeah, I was just reading about that!" -"That's wild, it really is" -"You know, it makes you think, I mean, uh, in terms of the election over here, you know?"

They are trying to calm the hot dog contest eating crowd, saying that it's OK, because "hamburgers are hot dogs' best friends" but the crowd is NOT having it. Someone has pulled the announcer's straw boater down over his head, his head went right through the top of the hat. Folks, this is anarchy.

Oh wow. They forgot that Joey Chestnut usually brings all the hot dogs for the hot dog eating contest. They're bringing out hamburgers because they don't have any hot dogs. Everyone is booing. This is getting ugly.

Biden goes on live TV and solves a Rubik's Cube. They bring him a 4x4 Rubik's Revenge but he makes quick work of it. Next? Rubik's Magic. He's never seen one before and is thrown, but ultimately he prevails. Now smug, he asks what else they have. A mistake. For it is the dreaded Rubik's Clock.

The Magibook version of Gatsby also clears up that Doctor T. J. Eckleburg is the head of the time project in the future that Nick is using to try to change the past. The green light is someone emerging from the time stream. Most readers miss that. Also, the book was originally called NICK OF TIME.

The presidential debate on PBS tomorrow, but they have the Costco Guys on, who each rate every single statement made by the candidates on the Boom Scale live throughout the entire debate, their volume growing increasingly louder as the debate goes on.

Saw the first photo of the new Clark Kent and listen, it's just a single still image, not even an official photo and it's probably just a weird angle on his hair like his hair probably doesn't even look like that but also, I'm sorry, they have to reboot again.

We'd keep it real simple. The new internet (working title: The Outernet) would have: -Web Sites (linked by webrings, maybe an index site) -News -Weather -Sports Scores -Message Boards -Information about movies -Game* -E-mail And that's it, I think. *Solitaire

Excited Homicide may finally be streaming because 1) it's GREAT, especially the first 3 seasons 2) it will matter again that I am the best at being a fan of Homicide Anyway, a TV show that had a season finale that was just Bruno Kirby and Richard Edson tooling around to an ELO soundtrack. It ruled.

I assume favorites over here are already hidden. I'd be doing much bigger engagement numbers. I mean, I'd just have to be doing better numbers, wouldn't I? the posts are pretty good, right? Not my a-material, no, I'm holding that back, but still pretty solid stuff from just some guy on the internet.

As we get further away from it and history condenses, I assume history will say that Howard Dean's campaign ended after he went on, ate an incredibly hot wing, and made that noise.

Giamatti already did eye work in THE HOLDOVERS, what if that’s his thing now and he’s going to do a whole movie in Thriller Eyes contacts? You can’t rule it out, it’s on the table now.

Ok, but what if it’s not an “elevated thriller” but instead an elevated “Thriller”? Paul Giamatti starring in a big screen adaptation of the THRILLER video, what if that’s what it was? #ThrillerEyes

Have to respect the Diamondbacks for choosing to pay tribute to consummate craftsman Jon Avnet, director of 1991's Fried Green Tomatoes and 2008's Righteous Kill, with a patch on their jersey. A lot of teams wouldn't have.
