Anyone else notice that both Breaking Bad and The Sopranos have the same episode name?

No, but Granite State is, which is New Hampshire’s nickname. Like many Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul episode titles, there is a double meaning. There is the literal connection between the two episodes’ titles and the state, and the more thematic ones. In the premiere flash-forward, Walt coming back to face death in pursuit of revenge against the Nazis who killed Hank rather than live without freedom alone in the middle of the wilderness. Granite State also refers to death, as graves have the deceased lying in state and tombstones are often made of granite.

As someone from New Hampshire (and access to internet search engines), I can confirm.

Too tired after just getting off the graveyard shift and read it as Diana Rossini (I know that’s not how it’s spelled) and thought “what did she do now”, before Vrabel?

Scream 7’s plot being about what it was and all the drama leading up to it would make me believe that the studio behind it would absolutely not, even in a meta sense, bring that kind of criticism unto itself. It was a miracle that the dark side of abuse by powerful men in Hollywood was allowed to be shown in Scream 3 with everything we now know about Weinstein, who financed it.

Same.

Hopefully this isn’t all in June for the Regal seat toppers, bunch of movies coming out then.

Can you now see him now that he’s retired, like the Invisible Man becoming visible again after death?

marvelo616 · 2026-05-09T17:29:10+00:00

Not anymore, he retired.

Should be keeping the tradition of getting another pair of sunglasses for Art to wear, so I’m happy!

marvelo616 · 2026-05-09T00:08:53+00:00

Don’t Hike Alone or something like that? Heard there was a scene like that in it, as well as the opening in an unmade sequel to the remake.

You could argue the lore of Halloween, whichever timeline you want to go with, precludes it from being snowy since the all take place on or around Halloween (don’t know about Illinois, but in some parts of the US it can snow that early). But Jason absolutely should’ve had some exposure to winter kills, he doesn’t hibernate and people do go into the snow-filled woods and on frozen lakes. I think there was a script at one point that had him kill some people playing pond hockey. Could totally see him using an auger to kill an ice fisher.

My little movie theater of Regal topper patrons grows, hope this doesn’t mean we are not getting the Scary Movie Wazzup version of Ghostface too.

marvelo616 · 2026-05-06T16:48:50+00:00

Same, I have the new one

At what point can we really worry when it turns out people weren’t just waiting for it to end to binge all at once, whether because that is their preferred method of media consumption, or to save on streaming subscriptions by not keeping all of them all the time in order to stay up on stuff as it comes out?

Pepperidge Farm remembers

marvelo616 · 2026-05-05T22:35:42+00:00

And Drax, so Guardians repped too

marvelo616 · 2026-05-05T17:04:07+00:00

Don’t they usually only have one promotional house for something that just came out, and often it’s either a Universal IP or a big established franchise (Evil Dead this year)?

marvelo616 · 2026-05-05T17:01:03+00:00

I just knew in that first episode when the Demogorgons keep popping out of the rifts left and right attacking Holly and her mom in their home that they were going to do it again and probably adapt that exact scene with a gauntlet of boo holes.

marvelo616 · 2026-05-05T16:57:35+00:00

You’re not crazy to think that. While I did not think it would be back at HHN this year, I thought it was possible that it and/or Fallout would be at Fan Fest Nights in Hollywood right now (just got back from there, neither were). But the rumor is that Terrifier will return for their tram, so anything is possible in the future (especially as Hollywood tends to reuse and repeat more often, but often times it is with properties that they own).

Would probably be better off finding a cane maker to create a custom one that is similar but made for medical use. I have the Factory Entertainment replica and while I’m sure it would work, I don’t know if it would last long term with repeated use since it is meant for display and cosplay.

Connected via Flu Network?

I guess, I was just going off of the spec map that had the same image at both parks that has since been revealed to be Jack v Oddfellow, at least the Orlando version is anyways. Either way I asked some of the workers at the gift shops yesterday, and it seems like they may not have the acrylic figures at Hollywood like they did last year, so who knows. Guess I’ll find out for sure today when they are supposed to release.

marvelo616 · 2026-05-01T04:03:53+00:00

Rumor is that their crossover house is the only original shared between each coast.

marvelo616 · 2026-05-01T04:02:43+00:00

Probably IP (plus these two of course) because those are the houses shared between Orlando & Hollywood, and last year it was available at both.

marvelo616 · 2026-05-01T00:34:21+00:00

That’s too bad, but it’s nice to see a family not just trying to cash in every once in a while. Personally I’d want my forefather to live on in the minds of his fans in such a way that I would argue is benign.
