@kenzvanunu @FemaleCritics Agreed!

Hoy se cumplen 29 años de esto:

Karl Malone fallaba 2 tiros libres después de que Scottie Pippen se le acercara y le dijese : "El cartero no reparte los domingos"

A la jugada siguiente, MJ anotaría la canasta ganadora y los Bulls se llevaban el Game 1

@MissSassbox Jessica Pearson, no shade to Anna Mae, who is just too messy (she'd get me off charges then I wind up murdered before the closing credits!)

THE SUGARLAND EXPRESS (1974)
One year before his famous Dolly Zoom shot in JAWS, Spielberg dropped this sniper Dolly Zoom into his first official theatrical feature film. Spielberg showed his film to Brian De Palma, who commented, "You stole that shot from Hitchcock's VERTIGO!"

This rare, unedited footage of an archival outtake from the landmark 1995 PBS/BBC ten-part documentary series Rock & Roll (produced by WGBH and filmed by Elizabeth Deane). In this incredible raw interview clip, legendary songwriter Dorothy LaBostrie pulls back the curtain on the true history of American Rock and Roll music.

While recounting how she cleaned up Little Richard's raw, underground roadhouse lyrics in just fifteen minutes to write "Tutti Frutti" at Cosimo Matassa's J&M Studio, LaBostrie strips away the commercialized myth of the genre. She firmly re-anchors the birth of Rock and Roll in its true origin: the resilience, survival, and creative genius of Black Americans navigating the hardships of the mid-century South.

When asked by the interviewer how Rock and Roll and the Blues truly began, LaBostrie bypassed the standard talk of record labels and studio equipment. Instead, she spoke directly to the socioeconomic realities and systemic oppression faced by Black communities in Mississippi and Alabama, explaining how systematic struggle was transmuted into a global musical revolution:

“Where I would go to Jackson, Mississippi, down in Meridian, Mississippi, those places where people had such a hard time as I said, and they would give out their event in song. You couldn't fight what was going on down there, so you get in the corner and make up a song, get a rub board or whatever it may be. And it was sad, but beautiful.” —Dorothy LaBostrie

@DonDrawsStuff Indeed. The original was such a disappointment story-wise I had no desire to read this one, and didn't. So technically not judging this but not reading it either.

@KoniWaves Said already, but the Spidey out of the grave cover cemented Zeck's greatest status. The Cap annual, Secret Wars, & G.I. Joe covers out him over the top. Some young guns like DNA and Taurin Clark coming for the title, but their sense of movement isnt as striking.

@ClassicXMen X-Factor was the biggest surprise. But with Peter David at the helm and Larry Stroman on art we (I?) shouldn't have been so surprised.

We deserved more than 5 & a half years of The Arsenio Hall Show....

That final episode was everything.... Queen Latifah asked if she could produce a segment.... this was the result. They sent Arsenio off proper...

Too difficult for me to pick. If I were forced, I'd say Williams.
