Okay, for serious movie/booze nerds (& no cheating):
In Casablanca, when Victor Laszlo & Ilse first enter Rick’s Cafe Americain, before she or Rick are aware of each others’ presence, what drink order does Victor give to the waiter?

@modernhistory People are hot (or not) in different ways at various ages. While I do see a lot of people who I actually find more attractive older (yes, I’m talking about women, as I’m a straight guy) you can’t compare the 2. They’re different people.
@lucawya Had leftover supplies from making tropical drinks the other day, so I made myself a few. Man I felt like hell the whole night. The sugar is far worse than the alcohol! I’ll have a couple bites of tiramisu once in awhile, but I generally just don’t crave sweets anymore.
@frequency432hz @RealEmirHan Great flick, but it goes far beyond depressing into another category. My wife & a friend picked it to watch randomly out of my videos & were traumatized. I would have warned them.
@RealEmirHan There’s a funny scene that folks today would totally not get. Superman would originally change into his costume in a pay phone booth, which used to fit an entire person. He’s thwarted by coming across a pay phone that is only the phone on a stand, which was new at the time.

@ATRightMovies Bad Santa was pretty damn good. Loaded with great scenes, but the comic interplay between John Ritter & Bernie Mac was, for me anyway, some of the best ever.
Watch this fantastic 1970s news report on the slow demise and then death of ‘porter’ - the poor man’s drink. A poignant eulogy to ‘the dark stuff’. Brilliant.
