Kly, is that you?????   TIS On days when I'm feeling pretty.  I'll bet that in court, your soft tones beguile the judge. I never want to lose my appeal in court. Meet me later judge and we'll "discuss" due process.

Hey Oli, I just happened to turn into TNT's, Dallas, where they are showing the episode when JR Ewing dies. Geez, Bobby sure got old, as did everyone else.  I remember many of the characters. I was more into Knot's Landing than Dallas, and was happy to see Ted Shackleford return as his Gary Ewing character. Didn't see Charlene Tilton, unless I didn't recognize her. TIS

Ok, eat your hearts out guys. It seems John Hamm of Mad Men fame has...let's see how should I put this???  Oh heck, I'll just say it. His "package" is so large that they asked him to wear underwear (why wouldn't you where underwear?) during certain scenes. They say clothes were so tight during that time. I can't say I remember them being that tight. Then again, compared to today, where pants are hanging off your ass, I guess it would be considered tight. I DO watch the show but must admit I never noticed. Tho I can't say my eyes wander in that direction normally. However, might be worth a look. Btw, I debated if this was "big enough" for it's own thread but decided I'd put it in this random section. TIS http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/20...irbrushing.html

There's a film the title of which I can't remember. Maybe one of you can. It was about (I think) a national guard unit in Louisiana (maybe) in the bayou that had a run in with some of the locals. Does that description ring a bell? Southern Comfort. Cool. Now, do you remember the last scene? I remember it as the military unit in convoy. What was that about? Were they leaving? What happened before?

Can Movies Be Solved? Rodney Ascher's terrific documentary Room 237 is, among other things, an ode to that "eureka moment." It is a feature-length video essay that looks at five rather outlandish theories of what Stanley Kubrick was really creating with his 1980 film The Shining—since, obviously, he couldn't have just been making a genre movie or a pop-lit adaptation. No, according to his five experts, Kubrick's film is either:
a) an apology for the government's "genocide of the Native Americans"
b) a "deeply laid subtext that takes on the Holocaust"
c) a dizzying ode to displacement
d) a film meant to be seen both forwards and backwards
e) Kubrick's personal dramatization of how he helped fake the Apollo moon landings.
"When the snows fall and the white winds blow, the lone wolf dies but the pack survives."
Winter is Coming
Now this is the Law of the Jungle—as old and as true as the sky; And the wolf that shall keep it may prosper, but the wolf that shall break it must die.
As the creeper that girdles the tree-trunk, the Law runneth forward and back; For the strength of the Pack is the Wolf, and the strength of the Wolf is the Pack.
