One good thing about the Yankees season ending is the can once again redirect the majority of my viewing time to my beloved movies. 🩷🩷🩷 missed you baby!

One of my favorite non-actor performances is Sandy, the diner waitress in Friday The 13th. Her natural, stilted delivery is so endearing. I’ll take you out for a night on the town anytime!

I think another lesson to take from the loss of both Dolly and Tim Curry is that neither of them took themselves seriously but they took the work dead serious that's the most important thing pour all of yourself into the craft but have fun and don't get an ego.

I don't understand how he isn't removed from his companies. Boards have fiduciary responsibilities to their shareholders, but also have to maintain certain ethical standards. I can't imagine the [insert generic company] wouldn't immediately dismiss a CEO for this BS.

RIP
Sam Neill on why 'The Piano' (1993) is an important movie in cinema history: 

"I don't think I can overestimate how important 'The Paino' is for me in hindsight. it sits on my funny old CV like a medal on my chest. It wasn't my film. It Jane Campion's. I wasn't the star of the film. That was Holly Hunter. But there is honour to be found in the second fiddle. Or fopurth. No one notices you much, you don't get nominated for things. But you served. I was there in an important feminist film. I was there on the front line in an important New Zealand film. Neither of those labels does the film justice. It's a work of art. And look, that tiny little figure in the fabric—see down there on the right—that's me. It's a film that will always have a place in cinema history. And I served in it."

Never forget that time Sam Neill gave a quote about murder that was so beautifully kabonkers, we all assumed it was a Clickhole bit initially

SAM NEILL

GENERAL JOHN MACARTHUR

If you were to commit a murder,

how would you do it?

It's got to be big! No slipping

something into someones drink, that's just

pathetic. I'd use a steamroller, just leave a

stain on the road. There's probably a couple

of people I'd put under a steamroller,

but I won't say who they are, otherwise

when they see a steamroller coming

their way they'll be on full alert. And

steamrollers don't go very fast...

I think it’s ok to judge people by their actions and words. Not everyone deserves a respectful mourning. You kinda gotta earn that.
