These days you would say he "was on the spectrum." He probably was. As for barely functioning- he could go out on a horse with only a bar of chocolate, some water and whiskey and survive for days. He was pretty darn functional.

Oppenheimer. It's an exceptional film. But it is not a good movie. Beautiful to look at with remarkable costume design (I mean GREAT suits). But it is neither a good biography nor does it take a stand on Oppenheimer the man. There is a strange schism about 30% into the movie when I thought I...

WTF-- There is so much BAD TV. Let's cancel great TV (yet again).

OMG It's like I am having acid flashbacks...

Are "The Beekeeper," "The Baker" and "The Retirement Plan" actuality identical movies?

I should snap some pictures, but I would likely get killed (or cause someone to be killed) if I tried. It's unbelievable how bad road surfaces are around here. And, on some major 4 lane roads, you CAN NOT avoid hitting at least one (and hoping that the one you chose to hit isn't the worst one).

Road conditions this year are the worst I have ever encountered. I do mostly highway driving. Potholes on major highways and, especially, potholes and railroad crossing on secondary roads. Snow/ice covering them is a big problem. Biggest reason, I think, are the 20" tires with no significant...

More Golf R tire drama today... Ripped a hole in my Nexen snow and cracked yet another rim. Dealer replaced the rim but could not locate four matching performance snows. And yes-- there is 14" of fresh snow. So the solution was 2 Nexens in the front and 2 continental snows in the back with...

I know nothing much about the MCU vs Marvel universe. All I know is I am pretty sick of just about anything in the superhero genre. How are these costumes NOT Spiderman/Spiderwoman? I saw the trailer and it oozes spiderman (with short clips of women doing Peter Parker moves). I'm lost. No...

I had to go see this because of the posts above. I can only describe it as "crack cocaine cinema." I'm probably not any worse off for taking one hit, and man did it feel sooooo good. It is hands down the dumbest Jason Statham movie of all time. But that's not really a fatal flaw (double...

Wait--- that makes him not an actor!

I posted about it in "Movies I Have Watched Recently." As much as it had enormous potential, it suffered from being poorly directed. The story is controversially ambivalent as it depicts a pretty transparent perspective of toxic feminism. But it also shows how nice, heterosexual men who resort...

Title: Cat Person Tagline: Based on the sensational New Yorker short story. Genre: Thriller, Drama, Comedy Director: Susanna Fogel Cast: Emilia Jones, Nicholas Braun, Geraldine Viswanathan, Isabella Rossellini, Hope Davis, Christopher Shyer, Liza Koshy, Josh Andrés Rivera, Melissa...

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt14647404/ Cat Person-- Even though it is a flawed film with, at times, painful direction, it should be required viewing. by everyone. I am surprised at the level of transparency with which it deals with toxic feminism. Being an average, or in-fact, an above...

Waiting for a technician to arrive-- I was told between 2pm and 5pm. It's 6pm and the technician is off the grid

"HR Giger's Alien waltzing with Taylor Swift"

There is SO much CGI, that one can hardly considerate a "live action" film.

I am so triggerd by this... Beyond triggered. I actually went to her website. So-- look what it says-- Portfolio Value "$4.1MM+ Acquired Price $4.1MM" So, you made NOTHING. Color me TRIGGERED again!

Invest your money with her. She spell good!

As I said-- it takes human beings to fuck up something this badly. As detailed and correct as your observations are, there are probably 20-fold inconsistencies and 100-fold stupidities in that awful film. It angers me just thinking of how badly they fucked-up the Alien universe. I recall being...

BUT-- no one needed to see Ripley in her super-tiny panties! But, in fact, being an extraordinary character AND being sexy and being female AND enjoying lingerie is the perfect storm. Even Arnold never pulled that off. And he never can. It is one of the innate tenets of being female. Thank God...

PS- it's okay to have gay and trans characters if they add or are essential to the story. Velazquez is a great example of that. It's when you have to add characters into a story based on a predetermined ration (a la most of Netflix's universe these days). It's even MORE annoying when, in the...

Prometheus could never have been a good film... No way. Alien is among "the greats" in horror/science fiction cinema. A substantial part of that was involving H.R. Giger in the Alien design and "biomechanics." Giger was a (albeit heroin-addicted) genius. Aliens, however, is also among the...

Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning. Not bad - maybe it was great. I honestly couldn't tell-- I just kind of got lost in some of it. It was almost OVER stimulation with the constant action. Amazing what Tom Cruise can do at age 60. Plus his not model hot, but amazingly attractive/sexy...

I thought she was the pornstar I sat next to on a flight to Portland once. But it was Jessica James... She was good enough company. And there was almost no talk of sex (except she did tell me she was an "adult entertainer" or something like that). Ironically, she was found dead in her...

The name of every Amazon.com customer service associate who I have ever chatted with online.

No idea-- those are disturbing.

Dude was awesome. Alien Nation was probably my favorite of his many roles.

Although I have not read nearly all of the Jack Reacher novels, I've gone through over a half dozen of them. Persuader, was my least favorite. Probably because it is NOT a Jack Reacher solo story. He always seems to be working for some other motivation than "Reacher justice." (ie., for the DEA...

I really dug the over-the-top New York cop (with a hyperbolic Joisey accent). No spoilers, but if they choose a solo-Reacher novel, he won't be coming back!
