re: Crooked Letter Brewing Co.
Posted by Udvarnoky on 11/9/17 at 12:15 pm
Word is that Crooked Letter will re-open by the end of the year, but as a "brewpub" only. You will have to physically go to the brewery to buy the beer. The plan is to eventually work back up to distributing, but it sounds like they have to start over from scratch, hence the slow reboot....

Weird Al announces stripped-down tour

[quote]BE YE ADVISED: I will be announcing ALL THE DATES for my 2018 North American tour tomorrow morning, October 13 at 9:00 AM Pacific on weirdal.com.
In case you haven’t heard the rumors… THIS WILL NOT BE OUR NORMAL KIND OF TOUR. I decided we should try something different, just for a change ...

Possible good news - if you visit [link=(http://crookedletter.weebly.com/)]this site[/link], it says Crooked Letter is re-opening in October.
Hopefully this is true. I need some Mystery Romp again....

I don't get this whole slippery slope argument of "Is Jefferson next?!" Pointing out that Jefferson owned slaves is not a gotcha. America is a country of [i]ideals[/i], and it's implicitly those ideals we celebrate when we put its figures on a pedestal. We see the atrocities in our history as exa...

re: Tonight Show crowd
Posted by Udvarnoky on 7/29/17 at 7:17 am
A lot of those studios are smaller than they seem on TV, sometimes deliberately so. According to Conan, his show is taped in a giant airplane hangar at Warner Bros. but he had his set deliberately ensconced in one little sliver of it because he thinks the intimacy works better for comedy in a live ...
re: 'Dunkirk' Discussion Thread - Spoilers
Posted by Udvarnoky on 7/28/17 at 8:59 am
As you say, the Germans came along "hours later," which is plenty time enough to stumble upon the beached boat.
I think the idea with Hardy is that he was not high enough off the ground by the time he was gliding for a parachute to do him any good, so he committed to landing which without fuel me...

Saw this in a regular cinema last night, and found it amazing.
Where are you folks seeing this in film IMAX? There are no Louisiana options for that.* Closest venue appears to be Birmingham.
*What Elmwood is offering is 70mm but not 70mm IMAX. Still superb and worth the drive I have no doub...
re: 'Arrested Development' Officially Renewed for Season 5 at Netflix
Posted by Udvarnoky on 5/17/17 at 6:22 pm
I'm glad they will be avoiding the scheduling issues this time around, but I contend that Season 4 was an amazing achievement that will be re-assessed favorably over time. It was more challenging and not as swiftly paced as the first three seasons, but I think what it accomplished was more ambitiou...
re: Did anyone see Stephen Colbert have an absolute meltdown over Trump last night?
Posted by Udvarnoky on 5/3/17 at 4:21 pm
I have no doubt that the fragile little dears getting worked up about this were equally appalled when Ted Nugent boasted of telling Obama to suck on his machine gun.
The only consequence of this non-controversy will be a boost to Colbert's ratings. By all means, keep the synthetic outrage going....

It looks like the brewery just disappeared without a trace sometime in the last 12 months. It's a shame because I loved their Mystery Romp, though as with a few others here, the last six-pack was bought was sour and clearly from a bad batch....

Well it "fits" in that you could argue it was just a final "frick you" by Frankie's would-be assassin, but just because it can be explained doesn't change the fact that it introduces unnecessary, and likely unintentional, confusion, which was the original point....

[quote]The Rosatto Brothers (with the backing of Hyman Roth) had no intention of killing Pentangeli. They needed him alive for Michael's hearing.

Posted by Udvarnoky on 11/18/16 at 7:11 am
No, you're right, the plotting is murky in The Godfather Part II. People overlook it because it's a great movie, but the Lake Tahoe assassination attempt has logic holes in it, and the botched attempt on Frank Pentangeli is unnecessarily confusing because of the "Michael Corleone says hello!" adlib...
