They referred to Black people as monkeys and "the watermelon people" and mused about putting their political opponents in gas chambers.

A delightful shaggy dog caper who’s mainly out to charm the heck outta you and it very much succeeds.

The world's only anxiety inducing romcom that can also say it's a Superman film.

It's also the way he talks about science to people. Rather than draw them into the mystery and wonder like Sagan he talks down to folks for not knowing what he knows.

Most of the things we think of as literature was just our ancestors' pop culture at the time. Teachers don't emphasize this enough when they force the kids to analyze the books chapter by chapter.

If the Fright Night remake happened today instead of 2011 Peter Vincent would probably be a YouTuber and think the whole thing is an elaborate Cameo.

Scott Stamper @deanmacguffin.bsky.social · 2d

Wait, Evil Ed from Fright Night did gay porn in the 90s?!?

Scott Stamper @deanmacguffin.bsky.social · 2d

A terrific romp that deftly toes the line between meta camp and genuine thrills and chills.

Scott Stamper @deanmacguffin.bsky.social · 2d

Now watching Fright Night. 😀

Some of this isn't surprising. A lot of Scorsese, Spielberg, Hanks, Coens, etc. What did surprise me is just how many Leo films made the cut.

Still taking suggestions for films I missed.
