Fun fact: that scene is not in the play.
Mamet added it for the film.
Wild to me, since I’ve done the stage show a couple times now in different roles, but all anyone remembers is Baldwin and clanking balls. Folks actually get confused when they don’t see that scene, and if it were up to me I’d...
Ahhhh but Spacey “wins” that fight.
Spacey is a tough one because unlike some of the right-wing lunk actors who have been “canceled” for being hideous people, he actually has staggering talent. Like the guy has always been an acting idol of mine, it’s always educational to watch him work. But...
I have a complicated relationship with that film because it is not just one of my favorite Christmas movies, it’s one of my favorite comedies of all time. It’s for me what I gather Home Alone is for other people. The whole cast is *phenomenal*.
But . . . Kevin fucking Spacey.
Yep, I’m not a huge Trek fan (I do not dislike it at all, other than William Shatner/Kirk being absolutely odious to me) but I loved First Contact. Well, except for the Farmer Hoggett parts, but Night of the Living Dead-meets-Moby Dick in space was very cool. Alice Krige is fucking legendary and...
I’ll see what I can do! 🤣
It’s crazy though: I don’t usually do “holiday appearances” but this weekend I’m getting paid to play classic Christmas characters TWICE! Cratchit/Ghost of Christmas Future two days ago, Krampus today!
Hopefully this puts me on Santa’s good list. It will certainly pay...
I should rewatch Lethal Weapon, haven’t done so in a couple decades. I guess the Mel Gibson ick keeps it from the front of my mind.
What I *do* need to do is finally get mu DVD player going so I can watch the classic Tales from the Crypt episode with Larry Drake as the deranged killer in the...
Well I will certainly be in service of children today. I am appearing in full costume as Krampus at a block party organized by a high school buddy of mine for his and his neighbors’ kids, and now he wants to do a long-form improv where I answer questions “in character”. Ahhhh the things I do for...
Helena Shaw from Indy is still cheap, yes?
I needed to steal a ML neck ball barbell to make this work, but HOT DAMN it looks awesome and it also looks like my wife . . . other than the chest being way way WAY too small.
Yeah, I said that.

This.
Folks can “not be worried about politics” all they want, but “politics” is coming for them all the same.
A head in the sand merely makes one easier to fool and roll over.
Stretcher is *highly* underrated.
An Olympic weightlifter who specializes in physically yoinking wounded comrades from danger?
This guy is my fucking hero.
