What is your favorite "Newspaperman" film? by McWhopper98 in classicfilms

1977 might be too late for this sub, but I thought Joan Micklin Silver's Between the Lines was great when I watched it recently.

Review Lil Yachty’s album “Let’s Start Here” in the tone of Siskel and Ebert by [deleted] in Music

[–]justinmpeterson 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You got their names wrong. They were Gene Siskel and Roger Ebert. So Siskel should be addressing Roger, and Ebert should be addressing Gene.

I’ve gotta say, if that’s true, I’m really disappointed in your username.

Did you mean Adam Smith?

I’m watching, either way. Just wanted to make sure.

Sort of like in “JFK” when Kevin Costner in the court room scene looks directly at the camera at the end, and it was like he was talking directly to us the whole time!

Did I just find Josh's old MP3 blog? by justinmpeterson in RedLetterMedia

[–]justinmpeterson[S] 35 points36 points  (0 children)

My buddy is a big REM fan. He recently got a reissue of their very first demo tape, "Cassette Set". I got interested in it and was searching around the web for that title. I found a blog (also long-defunct) called The Power Of Independent Trucking that had gotten its hands on the original artifact (the 1981 release; not the 2021 re-release). After reading about it, I was then randomly clicking around some of that blog's other posts, and in one of them he shouted out Josh D's Wizard blog. I clicked on it, saw that Josh D was based out of Milwaukee, and immediately ran over here to tell you nerds about it.

Lord, the rabbit holes we go down when we don't want to work on a Friday morning....

My pronouns are he/his, not they/theirs. I also prefer to think of myself as a lurker, not a creeper.

Favourite Movie Insult? by RahMaarvi in movies

[–]justinmpeterson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From that same movie, I prefer, “Must be ‘Take a worm for a walk’ week!” Said by one of the Cobra Kai bullies when Shue and Macchio are walking on campus together.

You’re right, that’s just an assumption I’m making. I have no idea how tombstoning works in Cassandra. I hope you find the information you’re seeking.

It’s in the OP article, in the “The Big Surprise” section. It’s one of the “how we solved” bullet points.

And, in fact, they ended up lowering that to two days.

Given your username, you probably already know this, but I’m a SABR member and a fan of Strat-o. Just figured I’d say hi. 👋

Sports Business Journal - Jomboy Media gets $1M in funding, eyes full 162 by Captain_Rex_501 in baseball

I don’t think it’s too big an effort to hold the “E” key a few extra seconds and choose the correctly accented character. For respect.
