  1. Definitely not what I was expecting, I was expecting a lot more Kenny Loggins, but no instead I got just like 30 seconds of Danger Zone, Not to mention it was somewhat rife with inaccuracies, the two that got me were that they were dogfighting against the Russian Air Force, The Russian Air Force does not have the F-14 Tomcat in their arsenal, The only nation to have it currently is Iran, Likewise the Aircraft they used for the enemy is the Sukhoi Su-57 which is flown by the Russian Air Force, but they made a critical mistake they referred the aircraft by a NATO reporting name that does not exist. In the film they call it "Bandit" which does not appear in the NATO list of reporting names, the proper NATO reporting name for the Sukhoi Su-57 is "Felon".
  2. Turns out that Rush References are Just the tip of the Iceberg for Regular Show, I remember watching an episode where Rigby goes back to High School to get his High School Diploma and they reference one of my favorite movies, Rushmore and my favorite film director Wes Anderson. They even included a remixed version of the iconic music from Mark Mothersbaugh who also coincidentally did the music in Regular Show as well as Wes Anderson's first four films from Bottle Rocket to The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou.
  3. I'd have to say I am a big fan of classic books that have created sociopolitical stirs, the more controversial the better. I especially loved George Orwell's chilling almost prophetic visions found in the pages of Animal Farm and/or 1984 which ironically most Americans horribly mistranslate or cannot even grasp the main theme of the books without having to use their preconceived and prejudiced views of Socialism and or Totalitarianism fog up their reading experience. Likewise Kurt Vonnegut's Slaughterhouse-Five also has the same impression, only instead of socialism or totalitarianism it is really all about The way of life after seeing your country actively betray you just because of the savage and nihilistic beings that is war and excessive to extreme patriotism.
  4. Since Saturday is just made for watching toons so they say I have been bingewatching Regular Show on HBO Max. I wouldn't of guessed there would be Rush references. No joke the pilot episode has a montage that is set to a synth remix of Tom Sawyer. Word is on Reddit I should also keep my ears peeled for a rendition of Subdivisions and/or The Spirit of The Radio.
  5. Probably one of the most underrated Wes Anderson films. The music is really good Though. I swear opening with "This Time Tomorrow" by The Kinks was really impressive, it probably tops "The Man in Me" by Bob Dylan in the opening of The Big Lebowski.
  6. Oh Gawd no, Seriously that shrieking sun from that one Sprite commercial still gives me the creeps, seriously was he a reject from a commercial for Raisin Bran Crunch because he did a bunch of PCP and Cocaine.
  7. I keep forgetting he had a role in Gilligan's Island, where he played a dictator. On a slightly unrelated note why has not any of the major streaming platforms gotten the rights to streaming all the episodes of Gilligan's Island?
  8. I always definitely this commercial to be one of my favorites: :lol: Coincidentally I remember seeing this commercial for the first time in a hotel room somewhere on the road in between Bismarck and Yellowstone National Park.
  9. I always found Shrek to be overrated and does not age well. I think it is the case; because looking back at it I see it as just a random heap of plot holes, mediocre acting and an occasionally shitty soundtrack. Seriously having to suffer through Smash Mouth once is like being Slapped in the ass with a wet gym towel, but listening to them again at the end doing a cover from The Monkees, that's like being waterboarded. Seriously I am going to need a lot a lot of beer to swill this down.
  10. Lisa: Mom, Bart's Drinking Coffee !! Bart: It's not coffee, it's hot Pepsi !
  11. Disney Pixar's Soul: Surprisingly deep but also pretty funny. I really loved the alternation of Jazz in the city scenes, with quasi-new age for the metaphysical scenes, but probably what captivated me was the cast, sure Jamie Foxx's and Tina Fey's character chemistry were spot on, I think the real showstopper was Graham Norton's character, probably because when ever I associate his roles in comedy I always think of him as the quasi-neurotically annoying youth group priest character Fr. Noel Furlong from the Anglo-Irish sitcom Father Ted.
  12. Flanders: Feels like I am wearing nothing at all, nothing at all, nothing at all Homer: Aah, Stupid Sexy Flanders Mr. Burns: Are you saying boo or boo-urns? Crowd: BOOO !!!!! Hans Moleman: I was saying boo-urns
  13. I really like the Eagles, I always say their music is perfect Road trip music, I remember binge listening to the Eagles when I drove from The Piedmont Triad to Sedona. Personally my favorite Eagles songs are their more folk-oriented songs, with the exception of one song. Here's my list of the top five Eagles songs. Peaceful Easy Feeling Desperado Tequila Sunrise Take it Easy Hotel California Honorable Mentions: Already Gone, New Kid in Town, Doolin Dalton, Witchy Woman
  14. Personally I am a fan of vintage SNL, Especially when they parodied Commercials, One thing I did not realize is that Chris Parnell goes back to the 1990s. As for current day SNL, I only watch for the political sketches, I especially loved the sketch where Melissa McCarthy impersonates Sean Spicer.
  15. I always find it odd that insurance companies are usually the purveyors of asinine advertising campaigns. I call it "The Flo-Effect"; Granted Flo from Progressive has jumped the shark, too many times, but what really irritates me nowadays is Liberty Mutual's half assed attempt at trying to rip off Starsky & Hutch, I will not go into further detail but so much to say is that one of them is replaced by an Emu, Not only is the image of their team chemistry appalling, but the acting is just horrendous. If anything it reminds me of a Cowboy riding an Ostrich from a certain Holiday special, now I kind of wish there were an Isle of misfit Ads.
