LEGEND is a lavish, big-budget fantasy film where nothing whatsoever happens for the first 20 minutes. Tim Curry steals the show from fairy princess Mia Sara and intrepid imp Tom Cruise, who goes through the entire film with wet hair. #yabtm

Appetite for destruction: In DOGORA (1964) Japanese director Ishirō Honda gives us G-men, jewel thieves, and a giant airborne squid, very hungry for carbon. Coal or diamonds will do—he's not picky. I think we all had a good time with this one. 🎥 #Filmsky www.youtube.com/watch?v=qF7s...

Clarence Thomas says the 14th Amendment should be read narrowly because it was written for formerly enslaved people. By that logic, the 2nd Amendment was written for muskets, not AR-15s. Funny how that kind of originalism only shows up when it's convenient.
