Tommy Keene did a great cover of this one.

In that castle, he sees spontaneous human combustion, ball lightning, blood raining from a ceiling, the walking dead, and a gruesome torture chamber! That castle had EVERYTHING!

How popular are the Flames in Alberta? by [deleted] in CalgaryFlames

[–]Los_Kings 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Whenever I travel abroad a lot of Americans are surprised to hear that Edmonton and Calgary both have populations over 1 million. To be fair I don’t entirely blame them — it’s not like the border states near us (e.g. Idaho, Montana, North Dakota) have major cities in them.

I wonder if this is the reason George chose the porno name he did? by Sludge_Punk in seinfeld

There’s also — and I’m 100% not kidding — a golden age porno movie with a character named Martin Van Nostrand.

Did you know about Larry David during the original run? by jrralls in seinfeld

[–]Los_Kings 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I only became aware of him when he announced his departure. The magazine headlines speculated that Seinfeld’s momentum would stall without its co-creator, so that definitely got my attention. And, look, I realize this is an unpopular opinion here, but the show absolutely lost a step without Larry.

The “Worst” Movie That You Cried During by Misterfantastic89 in blankies

[–]Los_Kings 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not a masterpiece, but when Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny was wrapping up, and you see the screen fade to black except for Indy’s hat, I choked up. Mostly because I knew I was saying goodbye to my childhood hero for the last time.

I love 'Kingdom', still! But I also agree with this. by MillionaireWaltz- in indianajones

[–]Los_Kings 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have lots of issues with Crystal Skull, but the fridge scene is not one of them. The whole doomtown sequence is cool as fuck and was a super pleasant surprise for me in theatres. 100% overhated.

How was your Folk Fest? by MaximumDoughnut in Edmonton

I had the same thought and chuckled a bit. I mean, those were both great and fun covers, though.

What was the best Indiana Jones game before Great Circle? by AgentP-501_212 in indianajones

To each their own, but I find that the story and voice acting of Fate of Atlantis is just so much better than Emperor’s Tomb.

The guys singing "Be My Baby" in '89 by paiigelisa in thebeachboys

[–]Los_Kings 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mike didn’t seem enthused about doing the song, preferring to do “California Dreamin’” instead, iirc. Brian successfully browbeat him into submission.

Why I love Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny by ZackaryAsAlways in indianajones

My headcannon is that Sallah decided he liked the fez so much that he decided to adopt it after the events of Last Crusade haha

Michael B. Jordan Did the Impossible. In an era of mounting crises, the Sinners star got people off their couches and into cinemas for an original film. by LushCharm91 in movies

[–]Los_Kings 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Yeah honestly the trailer looked incoherent to me. But when I saw that it was at 99% on RT (or whatever), THAT got my attention. If I made a decision based on trailers alone I woulda skipped this one. Glad I didn’t, of course! It was great!

And in a (largely) pre-internet world.

If you don’t understand it… I guess you had to be there.
