As a background on the creation of this thread, around the time of the pandemic, some of y'all know I was hospitalized for like an entire month. Needless to say, I spent a lot of time on the internet. I came basically watching a lot of older stuff that I have probably forgotten. When watching...
Just that simple; going back to television series pre 2000 that you have seen most of if not all of. Lately, mostly from last year I have been watching a lot of tv series from the past. Just not a big fan of modern television. Trying to catch up by binging older fare I grew up with, especially...
The one woman who kinda gave me the creeps with those cold blue eyes. The original Nurse Ratched was such a classic film villain. I will also remember her for DS9 villain Kai Winn. I remember an interview with her about "One Flew Over" where she said she stripped naked and shouted "look" on set...
In our modern age, the one classic filmmaker who seriously changed the game. Inspired Tarantino, and gave us French New Wave

Peter Straub always came off as the classic American alternative. There's Coke or Pepsi, McDonald's or Burger King, Seinfeld or Friends, and then there's Stephen King or Peter Straub. Heck he even had an alternative female titled novel King with Carrie, Straub with Julia. I've only read one of...

No offense intended, but this was someone I thought was gone already. I had always pegged him as "that old white guy". I had mostly remembered him for TV appearances and getting killed in Horror movies.
RIP Mr. Gulager...
I'm really saddened by this one. I grew up watching his films. One of my earliest memories is him as Evil in Time Bandits, which I saw in theaters. Seen him multiple things since then, with his distinct voice. Mostly villains in Tron, Time After Time, even the Cardassian interrogator on a...
Not a household name, but his two major film appearances were in the original Blade Runner and the Shining. He portrayed the inventor/creator of the replicatants in Blade Runner & in the Shining the ghostly bartender in the Overlook...
She was one of the more interesting artists of our times. She endured plagiarism from her own husband. Tim Burton made a biopic on her in 2014.

I first remember him from Seinfeld as the Library Police. Then from Hard Eight later on. Very distinctive actor.

Not exactly in my age group, but the attractive actress has passed away. She will be missed. She was also a Star Trek alum in "Where No Man Has Gone Before".

Is it premature to call him legendary? He shaped a few films from my youth. I am glad he passed the torch to his son and got to see him play in a little sandbox called Ghostbusters.
RIP Sir! And thank you!

Don't know if anyone has visited or revisited this podcast of Saget's. He seemed like a pretty good host going back to his AFHV days. I only discovered this after his passing, and it may be just morbid for some, but for me honorable to go back. I have been a fan of these types of shows about...
The actor/comedian passed away from cancer today. I will always remember him as a standup as well as playing comic relief on good film roles. He also played himself in an animated series based on his youth.
R.I.P. and thanks for all the laughs...
Always will remember him for classy films. Though he had a comedic side with Cosby too.
Rest in peace, sir.

I was debating with myself where exactly to put this, but settled. The famed producer of the original Pink Panther series of shorts. He also was a pretty big producer in general.
He actually passed away September 23rd, but news was just released today.

A Babylon 5 reboot is in the works from series creator JM Straczynski for . . . The CW.

We have had Disney+ for about 2 years now, we've seen Disney slowly pick & choose what FOX content they assimilate into the service. Some are "Go figures" like Miracle on 34th Street, Turner & Hooch, Splash, and the Sandlot, but the service has neglected more than few films under FOX. Any other...
It seems to me, as time moves forward we keep referencing nostalgia. We can not escape it. I mean, I still can't grasp why we're making old concepts new again like Man from UNCLE. Something some young people have never seen one episode of.
On top of this, we take those nostalgic concepts and...
So we have had a bunch of reboots and revivals of older IP. Some of them mostly done out of nostalgic value to various results. Some just networks giving them a shot for testing purposes; like limited series.
Some original series like:
Roseanne (1988-1997)
Full House (1987-1995)

I am wondering if Marvel is confused or the comics just fuddled things up over the years and decades. In certain appearances of Namor he certainly came off as looking Asiatic in nature. Though as we know he was mixed with human and Atlantean blood. No comics that I know of ever specifically...
The first and closest we've had was DC Universe which lasted from 2018-2021. It was of course going to highly limited for strictly DC comics films and television. However, it ran into licensing issues such as the Dark Knight trilogy being pulled off of it fairly quickly (probably first month)...
So, no burgers allowed.
