It’s a sin that 200 Motels isn’t available for HDTV cinema.
(It’s weird to me just how glacial the HDTV rollout has been on all fronts. I mean, Vertigo only became available via VOD just a few months ago. And they’ve been endlessly waiting to put out some expensively restored event version on Blu. But the part I don’t understand is that I’ve had a perfectly decent HDTV copy of Vertigo for years because they’ve aired on premium cable channels, and I’ve got a TiVo. And that means the studios have had a perfect decent 1080 transfer of Vertigo for years, AND DECLINED TO SELL IT. The same goes for 200 Motels. Decent 1080 transfer done years ago to sell to premium cable channels, but no à la carte sale option in any way, shape or form. I don’t get the unwillingness to monetize the back catalog.)
*golf clap*
A Perfect Couple!
I didn’t know that I wanted this until i saw it.
Well, I do believe that’ the best picture I’e seen maybe ever.
Athletes are humorless drones. I would bet my kidneys this douche will be involved in some kind of gambling and/or PDA scandal before he’s through. He reminds me of Pete Rose, and not in a good way.
Buy Nike Shoes’ ‘comment’ leads me to wonder– which Olympic events would Frank have excelled in the most?
Notice that she looks like Kristen Stewart
This made me smile. Thanks, Glenn.
Wow, I thought she always wore ball gowns! More unlikely celebrity couples, please, Glenn.
I’d say Kristen Stewart looks more like Frank Zappa than Claudia Cardinale.
I would Sheik Herbouti…

I’d say Robert Pattinson looks more like Claudia Cardinale than Frank Zappa.
