@OhColeman He was indeed small, and we had occasional cougars outside, so this tracks.

Happy 92nd birthday Margaret Kerry! Kerry served as a live-action reference model for everyone's favorite pixie from Peter Pan (1953), Tinker Bell. ✨🧚🔔

@OhColeman As a kid, I briefly had a small deer as a pet. They do not function well indoors.

In PREDATOR (1987) Dutch’s team fly out to their mission in a helicopter while blasting Little Richard’s “Long Tall Sally”

which was the no. 45 hit song in 1956, 31 years earlier

which means in 2021 Dutch’s team’s boom box would be blasting

...oh no

@hradzka “STOP! Collaborate and listen!”

My wife was puzzled when I requested this book because she knows I’m not into hiking.

[Jesse Hamm @jesse_hamm]

Notice that I said “ill intent” instead of “ill will.” This, my dears, is smart writing.

[Jesse Hamm @jesse_hamm]

I once blurted to Will Eisner — with no ill intent — “My grandfather was a fan of your strips!”

@andrewfarago I knew a kid who used a calculator to add single-digit numbers.

@indigo_k @jeffparker I actually like 'em. They won't set the film world on fire, but "as good as Magnum" is probably accurate. Selleck solves murders, dates cute women, mopes around. Good casts -- William Sadler, Viola Davis, etc -- decent scripts and cinematography.

[Jesse Hamm @jesse_hamm]

I was NOT ready for this movie's choice to cast Tom Selleck as Dwight Eisenhower.

[Jesse Hamm @jesse_hamm]

@indigo_k @jeffparker I'm waiting for the completed trilogy before marathoning those again.

[Jesse Hamm @jesse_hamm]

@indigo_k @jeffparker *Lassiter: he plays a hot jewel thief
*Runaway: he fights killer robots
*Ike: he's Dwight Eisenhower

[Jesse Hamm @jesse_hamm]

@PaulAllor Heavens to Murgatroyd. I actually had to look this up because I thought you were yanking my chain.

[Jesse Hamm @jesse_hamm]

@jeffparker He has indeed conquered the kingdom formerly ruled by Matlock and Walker Texas Ranger.

My wife brought home the new "scented tube" toilet paper, so if I smell rosier than usual, now you know why.

[Jesse Hamm @jesse_hamm]

@bclaymoore Yeah. I think he understood Kirby's appeal better than the Image guys'. Maybe it was more "of his moment."

[Jesse Hamm @jesse_hamm]

I think he didn't understand the appeal of the style he was (presumably) being asked to emulate, so he just copied its surface elements and obvious shortcomings, and the result was neither fish nor fowl.

[Comic Tropes @CTropes]

I like Herb Trimpe’s Hulk and GI Joe art. In the 90s he was in his 50s and completely reinvented his style to match what was hot at the time. I respect that but the page here from Fantastic Four Annual #26 is BIZARRE!

[Jesse Hamm @jesse_hamm]

@jason1749 I like when figures from transient media (like radio) are immortalized in media that will last longer. In twenty years, kids will still be enjoying their performances in CARS without ever learning what CarTalk was.
