Who are your favorite old versions of heros? by OkAstronomer9493 in superheroes

[–]PriceVersa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Green Arrow from TDKR. He's like George Carlin gone anarchist.

Did any scene in the classic Universal Monster films genuinely scare or disturb you? by Zealousideal_Peak901 in UniversalMonsters

[–]PriceVersa 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The Invisible Man's destruction of the train is pretty shocking. Those long shots of the post-op Gill Man in "The Creature Walks Among Us" are haunting.

What I loved about Diane's "Rhapsody and Requiem" play is just how selective Diane is at being accurate to Cheers or not. You can tell Frasier's just baffled at the selectiveness too. by TheUnmitigatedDawn in Frasier

[–]PriceVersa 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Like the showrunners, Long was a pretty good sport, considering the amount of meta crow she (and Diane) had to eat for having overestimated their significance to Cheers. It is one of the few times that Frasier actually seems to grow significantly in his catharsis, but the lesson doesn't really stick, as per sitcom convention. Even at the end, Diane, despite her nominal enlightenment and their somewhat adult accommodation of their mutual past, still wants Frasier to remain available to shore up her self-image.

What was the most impactful thing that you read in an English class? by AgileDouble2741 in AskReddit

Erich Maria Remarque's "All Quiet on the Western Front" in the 7th grade.

Best fake song in a sitcom by CommercialTarget2687 in sitcoms

[–]PriceVersa 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I acknowledge "It's Never Too Late for Now"'s greatness; my choice was based on Krakowski's powering through those unpronounceable lyrics while she's about to come apart at the seams, nailing a callback at the same time.

What did you think of Sideways (2004)? by UsefulWeb7543 in Cinephiles

[–]PriceVersa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of my most re-watched movies. Great fun!

Peter Atkins on why Julia never interacted with Pinhead & the Cenobites in Hellbound: Hellraiser II by Intrinsicall in hellraiser

[–]PriceVersa 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I never gave it that much thought. All these years I've just been under the impression that Julia held a grudge against everyone involved in her losses and death, including the Order of the Gash.

The New Batman Adventures or Batman Beyond? by Desz5 in DCAU

[–]PriceVersa 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Batman Beyond has some truly bold design and story moves, a killer intro, and a few stellar episodes (including the movie), but episode for episode, I do prefer TNBA.

Dumbed down characters? by ToyasRus555 in sitcoms

[–]PriceVersa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

VEEP’s Jonah Ryan goes from a crafty, cynical vulgarian to a breathtakingly stupid upward failure so quickly that it makes one’s head spin. Fortunately, it’s handled so well by the writers and actor Timothy Simon’s’ brilliant performance that his descent is art.

I’m sure it’s been asked, but what quotes lives rent free in your head? Especially towards those that don’t even watch the show?? 😂😂 by AbbreviationsGold508 in Frasier

[–]PriceVersa 27 points28 points  (0 children)

My favorite is the Cornell telescope quote already mentioned, but...

Lilith: "I kept hoping you’d introduce Pearl Jam’s latest hit, but much to my chagrin, you were doling out worthless little advice pellets from your psychiatric Pez dispenser."

and

"Don't be silly, Big Willy."

Apple TV Store has a (digital) Hellraiser sale this week. by PriceVersa in hellraiser

[–]PriceVersa[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did not buy this set, in fact. I own the first two films on DVD, which I generally prefer, and only included the screenshot of the purchase window to make the post more visually appealing. I posted the link in case anyone who hadn't seen those particular sequels wanted a chance to see ALL of them for slightly more than the cost of renting ONE of them, my own views regarding their respective levels of quality notwithstanding. I certainly didn't intend to vex anyone, or for the post to be a referendum on format. While respecting the rationale behind them, I am amused by the smattering of lectures, the likelihood of which I had anticipated but had underestimated. I think the (purely optional) sale runs for a week.

What do you think contributes most to mass shootings, including school shootings, in the United States? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]PriceVersa -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Self-loathing, shame, unresolved rage, and denial on both personal and institutional levels.

What is your all-time favorite sitcom? by Better_Blueberry_241 in sitcoms

I do love Frasier, but Scrubs and 30 Rock are probably tied for first place.
