“Von Hayes walks in here, you got one for Von Hayes!?”
“Dude, nobody knows who Von Hayes is!”

This is the best Christmas special ever and I won’t hear otherwise.

“Scott Hatteberg.”
“Who?
“Exactly. The guy sounds like an Oakland A already.”

John Fisher deserves hell for what he did to A’s fans.

“You know, you could've killed me, slugging me in the gut when I wasn't ready. That's how Houdini died, you know.”

“What a rush.”

This is the best version of Freddy. A perfect mix of scary and funny. The kills are unique, the kids rule, and Nancy is a bad ass. You can never watch this one too many times.

“You hear that? You’re better than the cows.”

Glen Powell, mesmerized by tornadoes. Me, mesmerized by Glen Powell. 

A more than solid follow up to Twister, even if it does have some faults. It definitely felt like it had more action/destruction than the original. Good performances, good effects, good story. Made me appreciate living in an area that rarely have tornadoes.

“I gotta go Julia, we got cows.”

Still a blast all these years later. The scene at the drive-in is top tier disaster movie stuff. The whole movie makes me miss Philip Seymour Hoffman and Bill Paxton, who are both great along with Helen Hunt. Peak 90s goodness.

“You can't just bottle us up!”

Can confirm they really nailed everything that comes with going to hockey camp at 13 year when all your friends are going to different schools.

“Boy, do I hate being right all the time.”

Celebrated turning 30 today by seeing this beauty in my favorite theater. Nothing like it on the big screen.

“Ever since I was a kid, people said my family was cursed.”

This was heavy and is gonna sit with me for awhile. As a wrestling fan I am familiar with the story but it still doesn’t prepare you for seeing it told on a screen. I thought it did a great job of telling the tragic story. Efron was a good as d but I don’t think there was a bad performance at all. There were so many beautiful shots, too. Great stuff all around even though it had me in tears multiple times.

“Godspeed, Spider-Man.”

Fun way to spend post Thanksgiving dinner. Really appreciated the Raimi of it all more this time around.
