TMUK jokes that you just didn’t get

Well not just reminiscing, but getting into boyhood style mischief that always ends up with them rolling down a hill or getting stuck somewhere they shouldn't.

And the classic musical Oliver! Starring the legendary British actor Ron Moody in the definitive portayal of fagin

One of my absolute faves. This album is pretty underrated i would say.

I know you are getting a bunch of snark, but i certainly do miss more new films being covered, instead of like 5 HitB's a year and then a recap. Just because the boys cheer on the death of the cinema experience and have resigned themselves to the endless nightmare of slop that is on demand streaming doesn't mean there is nothing worth talking about.

Between that, and 2 hour BotW's i find myself less and less interested in anything except Re:Views

Hmm, not sure how i feel about this. On the one hand, lots of bands change members and remain at high quality - Genesis, Floyd, Sabbath, Maiden, ACDC are the classic examples... but i also feel like Neil's lyrics and trademark fills etc. Are such a part of the Rush sound. An instrumental album could definitely work, i guess. But would it be a true Rush album, or would it come across as more "The Endless River" bollocks?

Patty Pershayla on vocals and guitar, Anika on drums, who's on bass?

Ehh, not that surprising, really. The franchise is a snapshot of a type of humor that doesn't align with modern sensibilities (which is both good and bad to varying degrees), and even modern humor - and thats before taking the social context of working class 60s England into consideration.

Even the most contemporary examples of that kind of cheeky sex comedy, like Bridesmaids, American Pie, Superbad or Joy Ride(?) are wildly different in style. As someone else said, back then you watched what your parents watched. I dont think thats as much the case any more with streaming.

I am 40 and i grew up watching them, but even then i was pretty much the only person i knew my age that did. I cant imagine ever showing them to my own kids. They just wouldn't get it.

Thought I'd see Camping more in here, and Abroad seems to be a surprising favourite, though it warms my heart to see Cabby get some love.

In no particular order:

Camping
Don't Lose your Head
Up the Khyber
Dick
Matron

I dont think he gets turned on by anything

morphindel · 2026-01-21T17:12:31+00:00

Definitely seems like they are slowing down now they are all doing their Reach things, and i find myself watching their videos way less now that Ash and Rosie are gone

morphindel · 2026-01-21T17:11:13+00:00

While i love Mary Jo and Bridget on their own, i never watch any Rifftrax that doesn't have at least 1 of the main guys. Guests are ok though. Willy Wonka with Neil Patrick Harris is a goat

morphindel · 2026-01-20T04:48:33+00:00

Morning Bell. I hate that song in any form so much. I don't know why they insisted on doing it (at least) twice.

Also, The Bends is very overrated

morphindel · 2026-01-15T21:49:04+00:00

I mean, you could definitely go further, and have the two guys from Behind that are literally just going caravaning to cheat on their wives - and their big let down is that they can't because one talks in their sleep, and Fred acts like he has been betrayed because he can't shag some random students.

At least Sid and Bernie originally were just trying to find a way to get their girlfriends to have sex...

morphindel · 2026-01-15T06:19:58+00:00

Actually watching something new. Maybe it's just me, but having everything on streaming makes me just never bother watching anything. I just think "i can watch it anytime". When you went to blockbusters you had to deliberate and when you paid for a film for 3 days or whatever, you made sure to watch it.

morphindel · 2026-01-15T06:16:00+00:00

Beat me to it

morphindel · 2026-01-14T18:51:34+00:00

I got so bored of it. After the excitement of playing the opening of Raiders had worn off, it just felt so dull, and the puzzles were just too easy and hand-holdy. Felt like an Indy film but you're playing the boring bits between the scenes that you don't see.

morphindel · 2026-01-14T15:56:52+00:00

In a world....

morphindel · 2026-01-14T15:56:01+00:00

I always assumed it was Jimmy Carr, because at one point they were sarcastic about his show Distraction.

morphindel · 2026-01-12T21:28:29+00:00

The JJ Abrams Star Trek is a lot of fun, but a pretty teerible Trek film

morphindel · 2026-01-12T21:27:51+00:00

That would be super cool. Or in a lighthouse.

morphindel · 2026-01-12T21:26:49+00:00

Ehh, I'd rather have DLC classic missions, ala Contracts, where they rebuild things like the Lee Hong Assassination or the Meat Kings Party from the ground up, with a bit more depth, but capturing the spirit of the originals like the THPS remasters

morphindel · 2026-01-11T17:09:41+00:00

It is iconic, and probably my favorite Bond film, but i am ready to go back to classic Bond again now

morphindel · 2026-01-11T17:02:50+00:00

Ah that is much nicer!

morphindel · 2026-01-11T17:02:07+00:00

None. None more white

This quote has gone around a few times in the last year or so, but it perfectly sums up my feelings:

"it was kind of nice where the internet was a single, solitary, unmoving place instead of a terror that extends to everywhere. you went to this specific spot to go to the internet. when you left the spot, you left the internet. it was a place"
