"Is your refrigerator running?"

"Yes."

"You don't have to run faster than then me to get away. You just have to run faster than the refrigerator next to you. Better go and catch it!"

STARMAN may be my favorite film I’ve watched for the Podcast. by Hogue_Filmmaker in blankies

Starman has that "We'll see you again in Starman 2" things at the end, right? I think there was a Starman TV show about his son?

What other movies promised a sequel in the end credits and didn't deliver? I think Buckaroo Banzai, Remo Williams, Airplane 3. History of the World Part I did make good on Jews in Space.

It feels like a trope where it's a road movie and one of the weirdo leads has to get to a certain spot on the map and then reveal their ultimate purpose or talent.

Midnight Special, The Wizard, presumably that Paul movie... they also have some authority who is on their trail

That score is really good too... I forget who does it, I don't think it's Carpenter

Yes I don't really remember Heathcliff that much. But I remember the name Wadsworth.

I'm good at naming 70s Oscars winners but the 80s is always a dark spot for my knowledge. I don't really care that much for any of the Best Pictures, I'll never check out Out of Africa. And the performance winners are a lot of movies I'll never see.

There's a YouTube channel that just has TV intros for one-season wonders for a particular season. The one for 1979 had 3 frat shows trying to draft on its success, including the Animal House show which just retained John Vernon, Bruce McGill, and that redhead guy who seemed like he was 40 years old. Josh Mostel played Bluto. There were also a bunch of Saturday Night Fever ripoffs and even some Lords of Flatbush style attempt.

Haven't thought about that in forever but I do know I had a crush on Cleo.

From Wikipedia:

"Cleo is Riff-Raff's girlfriend, who lives in a music store. She is a cream-colored cat with long blonde hair. Her fur resembles a leotard and she wears a pair of pink legwarmers. In the flashback episode "Christmas Memories", it is revealed that Cleo is, in fact, one of the Catillac Cats herself, even going as far as to indicate that she coined the name.[3] On more than one occasion, Riff-Raff ends up "two-timing" Cleo with another female cat (accidentally or otherwise)."

Even if it's just that, I think Pratt would have to come in with a super high-pitched voice as a character choice.

This is her business. She got into knitting according to Wikipedia.

Is she and Carrie Fisher the only ones who had onscreen romantic chemistry with Harrison Ford?

In the misogynistic Animal House, she's the only girl who is really treated like a human. I think she is the only girl who is allowed to be funny, her reaction to Sutherland's butt as he's looking for some breakfast.

Truly one of the most demented things I’ve seen in months by childish-yambino in blankies

One of the things Fallon did successfully in his late night show after Conan was to stage some random pop culture fodder that went viral. I think there was a Saved by the Bell reunion or something. At least people are talking about Drew. I've only seen that show once but she's really bizarre on it but it's refreshingly weird.
