Whatcha Watchin'?

I can highly recommend this delightfully bonkers interview:

Nothing can prepare you for the horror that is Santa vs. The Ice Cream Bunny.

The director of “A Talking Cat?!” brings you another movie filmed in his house.

How many kickboxers do you recognize?

Okay, to me the TV show is more canon than the comic strip, mostly because they bothered to actually establish what/whom was related to what/whom:

I wonder why it was changed for the Barry Sonnenfield movies? (I’ve not seen the new animated ones, don’t really care about 'em). Or did they even do their research, on the part of the former?

Defunctland is frequently great.
I’d also strongly recommend the Jim Henson series:

Also:

Did I set out to watch an hour and forty-two minute documentary on Disney FastPass? No. Did I enjoy it immensely? Yes I did.

Finally, this one:

My favorite line from this episode is something to the effect of “Your hunch is right, this man is also a Nazi.”

Less than timely.

A juxtoposition:

As promised -

A largely inoffensive remake with nothing interesting or new to say other than a weak argument against attention culture which is further undermined by casting an actual influencer as the lead instead of a traditional actor. Rachael Leigh Cook and Matthew Lillard are too talented to be in this movie. Hopefully they were paid well.

Counterpoint -

A deeply funny and disturbing satire with an extremely talented cast. This is not a subtle movie, although the message is likely lost on those who it is pointed mostly directly at. Not recommended if your existential dread limit has been reached.

The latter flick made me think of this.
I don’t consider a km across to be huge

I just rewatched Interstellar last night, and it made me realize just how little discussion I’ve seen about some of the boneheaded stubborn idiocy that’s used as background detail for that story, and how much more pervasive that kind of thing seems today than it did when the movie came out. The moon landing denying teacher scene always gets my blood pressure up a few notches.

I suppose a km wide would seem a little huge if it landed in your yard. But for an asteroid a million miles away, nah.

The writing makes me laugh: “none of the objects – which range from bus to airplane-size --”

From an AutoTram Extra Grand bus to a tiny airplane? Or from a Airbus Beluga XL to a minibus? Too confusing! For Americans, I think they should describe it using standard measurement terms. Like, how many washing machines or football fields is it?

Is it bigger than a breadbox?

Or - how many Rhode Islands would fit into it?
