Movies (and occasionally face slaps) (Part 1)

:vince1:, gets us closer to Dune material that was never made into a mini-series. I’d love to see God emperor on screen.

Is that you, Heeks Lazaro ?

Could it tie into an even BIGGER cinematic universe??

Q: You said you didn’t really know what it was about when you shot it though, right?

A: I don’t ever watch myself but I watched it because I was curious to see what it was. I didn’t really quite understand from the script what ‘True Romance’ was… I remember thinking, I don’t really know what this is about but I know there is pain and yearning and all those things that make great movies. … but looking at it on a page, I was like “What is this?” Like all that stuff when Gary Oldman was talking about “White Boy day,” I just didn’t get it until I saw it and how funny, interesting and sad it all was … you have to see it all to get it.

Q: What are some of your most fond memories on set?

A: I like to be very improvisational when the camera is running… so during that scene with Saul Rubenik on the phone, I asked him to actually be on the phone with me and suggested we kind of do that all improvised. But the connection was so bad I didn’t hear anything but (inaudible mumbling) suck his (expletive). So I said, “You want me to suck his (expletive)?” And Tony was in love with it so it stayed in…

Q: Why do you think it’s still so popular — probably more popular now actually than back then — after all these years?

A: I was talking to this group this morning at breakfast and this most beautiful woman, who must have been about 30, said to me, “It’s the only love story that appeals equally to men and women. It’s so violent and so full of cheek and attitude and all of that that no man could get bored, but it’s got a really, really beautiful love story.” And I thought, “Geez, that’s a good way to put it.” I had my own way of putting it, but I liked that better.

Can’t you zee? there are 2 of you - one that killz and one zat heeks.

Willard is locked in that enclosure and the kids can be heard in curiosity outside, then they cheer when the door is open. then shortly, Kurtz reads from Time Magazine the daily parade of lunacies errr

It’s impossible for words to describe what is necessary to those who do not know what horror means.

And you must make a friend of horror. Horror and moral terror are your friends, or else they are an enemies to be feared. they are truly enemies :vince2:

and then set it to the side. bipolar balance of power, like Putin says

Coppola may be Goat

Megalopolis hype! lol

Well Family Matters and Perfect Strangers are 100% in the same universe because Reginald VelJohnson played the same character in both.

My uncle’s brother produced both those shows (and my cousin worked on Family Matters toward the end of its run). I didn’t know him - only met him once, I think - but he was really nice in that he would think of my brother and I despite never having met us until we were in our late teens/early 20’s. Once he sent us Perfect Strangers book bags when I was in middle school.

Saw Jaws in the theater today. That young director Spielberg might have a great career ahead of him.

Fresh Prince is also arguably in the same universe as Family Matters.

I mean, I’m inclined to see it as non-canon even though it aired, but…

Omfg I forgot about that one lmao

Yes but we must go deeper than well known Wikipedia knowledge.

Does Die Hard take place before, during, or after Family Matters?
