RIP Sam Neill. So many great, knotty performances, so many bold choices, such a consistently interesting career & still - shamefully - this interview snippet was the first thing I thought of

My favorite Sam Neil fact will always be that he designed a future Australian flag that replaces the union jack with the aboriginal flag for Event Horizon and insisted the film use it.

Screencap of Sam Neil in Event Horizon, his flight suit features an Australian flag with the union jack replaced by a yellow circle on black and red, the Australian aboriginal flag

To shamelessly cash in on the latest Supergirl film, our latest episode is Retro Ramble on 1984's Supergirl! An absent Superman, extensive rewrites, an eclectic cast, and last-minute distributor issues are just a few of the things under discussion.

2 Screenshots from the movie "Miss Congeniality" (2000): First, a beauty pageant host in a red blazer holds a microphone and stands beside a contestant wearing a sash labeled "RHODE ISLAND" among other contestants lined up behind her, with the subtitle "Describe your perfect date." Second, a close-up of the same host and the smiling contestant as she responds, with the subtitle "That's a tough one. I'd have to say April 25th. Because it's not too hot and not too cold. All you need is a light jacket."

To stand up as the Hackensack-born comic foil to Gene Hackman & Ned Beatty in two sprawling SUPERMAN films was no easy feat. But Valerie Perrine did just that. And did so with warmth, humanity & great comedy chops. Rest in peace, Miss Teschmacher. #RIPValeriePerrine #Superman #SupermantheMovie

How do you follow up a blockbuster like Top Gun? Simple, you get the same people involved and remake it, swapping out jets for race cars. What could possibly go wrong?... Our latest episode is now available!

Catherine O'Hara was amazing forever, but even in the last couple of years alone it seemed she was having the time of her life, scene-stealing like there was no tomorrow. Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, The Last Of Us, The Studio... she just WENT for it, every time. A gigantic force.

Absolutely gutted at the passing of Catherine O'Hara. She was one of the funniest people on the planet. I'm currently watching The Studio and revisited a few episodes of Schitts Creek only a couple of days ago. RIP Queen x

RIP Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa. A magnetic presence in everything he was in, whether he was a hero or a villain. Probably best known for playing Shang Tsung in Mortal Kombat, he appeared in so many TV and animated series, including Licence to Kill, Showdown in Little Tokyo, Rising Sun & Blue Eye Samurai.
