It'd be more impressive if they heard from Australian AC/DC drummer Phil Rudd.
Oops, sorry to tread on your toes like one of Barnum's elephants, which will be played by BTS in the sequel.
Meanwhile, in real life, he looked more like Paul Giamatti.
"This video is private." Dang, I was wondering if it was a version of the theme song from the Paul Jones movie.
There's a sucker born every musical number.
Setting fire to a house is not the same as cleaning it.
Sommo good at dealing with their audience, and Sommo not so good.
It's just waiting for someone of your ... calibur.
Followed by the Osmonds' One Bad Apple?
I would have pulled that sword out of that stone. I was born to be king of something.
And those scientists are Dr. Obvious and Dr. Duh.
With a side order of solar panels.
Malcolm Gladwell can spend 10,000 hours sucking my balls.
SONNY TUFTS!

Listen for the moment when Lupe curses! I guess because she did it with an accent, the Breen Office didn't catch it.
I've already seen them, so there's no urge to revisit anytime soon.
Probably slathered in lard.
And Goodbye My Fancy has Senator Joan Crawford returning to her alma mater to receive an honorary degree, only to have the money-obsessed university board censor her showing of a documentary about fascism's war on education in Europe. Timely!
Lessee ... Allison Brie is a teacher in Together, The Magnificent Butcher takes place at a martial arts school, The Story of Esther Costello is loosely education-related ("inspired" by Helen Keller)... Weapons is about a teacher ... as is The Accused ... so there was some classroom time in there.
I mean, the white male archtype many call "the human thumb" is everywhere these days. I blame Joe Rogan.
It's a fine line between "forgot" and "ate".
August was a busy movie month ... I guess I was bracing for the return of school in the fall. #WhatIWatched #Letterboxd
There's a lesser-known Glasgow-set 1952 collegiate comedy You're Only Young once, with Charles Hawtrey and a young Ronnie Corbett as a student.
Greystoke was pretty good, as I recall, even though Andie MacDowell was dubbed by Glenn Close.
Funny, we are just on our way out the door to Ya-Ya's.
You've got a friend ... in Charles Palantine.
There isn't enough confetti in the world that would make me do that.
I hear it's just a shell company these days.
I have a DVD box set of the early MGM Tarzan pics with Weissmuller, and that's it for my collection of the King of the Apes. I did read a couple of the Edgar Rice Burroughs novels back in the day, when I went through a big pulp fiction phase, but it's been ages.
Do they have anything in a Peter Butterworth? Maybe a slightly damaged Robin Askwith?
Lovely episode! I saw it in my feed Monday morning, immediately got up, made a pot of coffee and found a great copy of the film on Plex. Great way to spend Labour Day with Cushing, Lee, Pertwee, Savory & Rain!
I can already hear a joke about "waxing off" in my head.
Of course this is a week before we get to Melbourne.
Looking forward to that "Prince Philip in the ground" vibe.
It can be arranged...
Have you seen Tarzan & His Mate? One of the steamiest films of the pre-code era.
It's weird watching old Tarzans and thinking Jane is Mia Farrow's mom.
A major loss, a truly great Canadian actor who always made anything he appeared in more noteworthy with his considerable presence. I first saw Graham Greene on The Great Detective in 1979, but I have a real urge to revisit Thunderheart, where he goes toe-to-toe with Val Kilmer and Sam Shepard.
Chuck Schumer has sent him a very strongly worded get well soon card.
And it feels good to delete the unsatisfactory ones.
Today's a good day to learn Colbert found a new job. Hope it's a good one for everybody! #HappyLaborDay
Phony Elon-mania has bitten the dust.
If you wonder why the Democratic Party (and especially elephant-in-donkey's-clothing Chuck Schumer) is a non-stop fail fiesta, John Oliver can point to two imaginary people who help explain why. www.youtube.com/watch?v=dijM...
Yep, the original Easter Egg.
I remember finding the secret screen, what a thrill that was!
Sitting inside with the windows closed, blasting Ramones to drown out the dull thud of the nearby Creed concert.
We saw Sully's show last night at #HalifaxFringe and had a blast! Catch his last show on Sunday, or one of his upcoming #Halifax standup spots before he heads back down under! Show this Kiwi some Bluenose love #HaliSky www.sullyosullivan.com

When he says "We're looking at it..." it means he has no idea what he was just asked about.
Funny that two nights ago I was singing along to @buzzcocks.com What Do I Get at top volume at their Halifax show, and today I was at the movies singing along to it at a much quieter volume. I won't say what film for fear of spoilers.
"First they came for Wordpad, and I said nothing, because I knew how to download and reinstall Wordpad..."

Windows has put AI in Notepad. F@#$ING NOTEPAD.
But you should totally judge a post by its misplaced apostrophe. Someone should impeach me now.
But which has better dance moves?
I know you shouldn't judge a book by it's cover ... but just look at that face.
I think we have to withhold prayers until God starts doing what we want. He’s a fiend for prayers and I think he’s just used to getting them. Cut off the supply and draw him out
As soon as I got home, I threw on one of the original Police Squad! (In Color) episodes, which had as many laughs crammed into less than 30 minutes as The Naked Gun had in 90. Plus, guest star, Florence Henderson! "Who are you and how did you get in here?" "I'm a locksmith and ... I'm a locksmith."

This week we're doing a double feature of Friendship and Megan 2.0. Which will probably make sense on some level.
Another weird movie week. The Naked Gun The Night of the Generals The Story of Esther Costello Hotel Paradiso #Last4Watched #LetterBoxdFriday
@kermodeandmayo.bsky.social @kermodemovie.bsky.social I enjoyed all the Jaws talk on this week's Extra Take, and when you brought up Ibsen, I was reminded of another Scandinavian Jaws connection, specifically this photo of Ingmar Bergman visiting the set and meeting Bruce the mechanical shark.
Robert E. Lee killed more U.S. troops in battle than Adolph Hitler and Osama bin Laden combined
This is insanity. This is the sign of a government that has lost its mind.
That's one ... fridge-id feline.
Talk about a clear and present danger.
Ruin a book by adding "Tom Clancy's" to the title: Tom Clancy's Joy of Sex
Oh why were there none at the merch table?
Glory be, #Descendents finally make it to Halifax for a brilliant show at the Light House Arts Centre #EverythingStillSucks
Thanks for playing #Halifax, @buzzcocks.com I first heard Singles Going Steady in 1979, bought A Different Kind of Tension in 1980, and have been a fan ever since! Much love to Steve Diggle and the crew for a lifelong dream realized! What do I get? A great show!
I bet the things servers did to his food were worse than the stares.
"Literature" HP is literature like pamphlets handed to you by timeshare salespeople are "literature".
I'm not a churchgoer, but I seem to recall a story about Jesus "driving someone out" of the temple, and it wasn't the homeless. Lemmee see if I can remember ...
Oh yeah, do you do Fedora? Red Hat? I've used them, and for my purposes they're probably fine. The file sorting systems took some getting used to, but I can tailor that a bit (or just get better at using them).
I've played enough games for one lifetime. Although I do still enjoy Scrabble.
This feels like an Animal Flub to me. Fetch Birdbane!
The only thing that amuses him is cruelty, so we get Gutfeld, and I guess Rogan, who is cruel to the overall basic concept of "comedy", based on the stand-up clips I've seen.
Not to mention the whole lack of talent or intelligence thing, which Seth clearly has in boatloads.
In truth, that's what I'm going to do ... my PC is supposedly not W11 compatible anyway, and I can't be arsed to buy a new one.
Do I ever, the only filling I want comes in pies.
I just salivated.
I'm scared to see how they'll add AI to Minesweeper next. "Are you *sure* you want to click on that square next?"
Now for a tiny, powerful replacement for Windows.
I still have the hard plastic one. I'm not going to poison a landfill with one.
After your visit, they should erect a plaque in your honour.
Apparently he thrives on terrifying cyclists!
Traffic control under a bridge? So ... a cyclist-eating troll?
What about all the old-timey shit they've removed from the walls? What does the Constitution say about the right to freedom of tacky decor?
I have this one in 5.1 surround, believe it or not. A Quebecois classic!
Specifically Taskmaster Season 5 with Bob Mortimer and the divine Aisling Bea.
This is the funniest thing I've seen this month. And I've been watching Taskmaster U.K.
The Treasure of the Sierra Merritt
Benjamin Necrotizing-Fasciitis
What a shame that the company that is pulling Colbert off the air is losing an executive with an appropriately rhyming name.
Once he does stumble off this mortal coil, the site of his mouldering remains will be a multiple recipient of the Ignoble Piss Prize.
Phew, it's not just me. I can't remember what it was, but there was a warning a while back, and it barely gave me any info at all before my car's robot voice started going "H ... T ... T ... P ... colon ... backslash ..."
