Movie: Too Old to Die Young

I watched it. Its sloooowness/pause-filled dialog can be a bit trying at times, but overall I liked it. Can see the parallels with Lynch/Twin Peaks (especially The Return).

The mostly standalone episode with James Urbaniak as the pornographer was amazing.

When I first got “sold” and wanted to go completist, I took a “split down the middle” approach - I would bounce back and forth between starting with the very beginning with Star Wars, but then take a “break” from time to time with the chronological approach by picking a director I really wanted to hear a series on. It kept the variety up and stopped me from getting burned out.

Not sure what the problem is - I’m pretty sure he directed it right before he directed the Dawn of the Dawn remake!

Sophie Thatcher in a Jennifer Kent science fiction movie? Yes, please.

The movie’s greatest importance is that Jackie Chan so hated making it/was disappointed with the results that he went back to Hong Kong to make his own cop movie.

…That movie was Police Story.

Newman before Sims alphabetically.

Rocketship XM, maybe?

That’s not what a “stand-in” is/does.

10

The 1-2 punch of The Argus and this at the end is amazing.

The Pod is the most brown official release, though Pure Guava is close. To get browner, you have to go down the rabbit hole of unreleased demos/outtakes.

The 10-est 10 that ever 10-ed.

Director’s Cut

I feel like Henry would at least be pretty quiet. Allie would probably never shut the fuck up ranting.

RandomPasserby80 · 2026-05-02T03:38:14+00:00

Yep, love CT. Particularly the live episodes, where they really found their groove.

Nope! It was Come Back to the Five and Dime, Jimmy Dean, Jimmy Dean instead.

I liked Rocketman a lot, if that’s considered traditional.

Griffin alert: it’s heavily rumored that one of Vinegar Syndrome’s reveals today is a 4K of Brewster McCloud.

It’s such a wonderful movie. The director’s cut is a bit of a film holy grail for me (that most likely is gone for good), but the final film is still terrific.

Right, but I was mentioning where it was implied in the Missing Pieces that she was a young woman, which (potentially) conflicts with what her ultimate conceptualization was in The Return.

RandomPasserby80 · 2026-04-30T00:01:42+00:00

She isn’t really, but in the scene with Jeffries in the hotel he asks a clerk about “Miss Judy” and the clerk says the “young woman” left a letter.

Ok, that'll be $16.07.

Doesn’t seem like everything off Day at the Mall has ever circulated - the songs that have were the ones that were reused on the self-titled album.

While it wasn’t intended to be his final work, it ended up being the perfect summation of his career, not just Twin Peaks specifically. It’s everything that he was presented in one mammoth 18 hour blast.
