One of my all-time favorite clips of Rob Reiner, from his Friars Club Roast in 2000, as he reads aloud Roger Ebert's infamous scathing review of his movie North. The man had an amazing sense of humor about himself. RIP.

you know that one person who complained that they don't talk about 9/11 in Turning Red? I've decided to become the person who complains that none of the characters in Ella McCay (which takes place in 2008) weigh in on the Asus Eee PC.

I definitely have the thought "if EA won't make another SSX, maybe I oughta just learn to use Unity and do it myself, it'll only take eight years" at least five times a year

I thought about this while watching the movie The Intern (2015). it was a bad movie, but it had a scene where Robert De Niro was holding two of these things at once. granted, it was a total of eight cups of coffee in the movie, but anytime it's five to seven, this would be a lifesaver

I have something controversial to say: they should make these with space for seven cups arranged in a circle, with one in the center. it wouldn't be that much harder to carry and would frequently allow a group order to fit in just one container instead of requiring one in both hands.

Scorsese interview: Man isn't meant to have immortality. He did that to himself, that's what the church taught me. But maybe if you promise you're only gonna use your eternal life to make art it should be okay. I don't know.

Herzog also saved Joaquin Phoenix's life one time, pulling him out of a crashed car when Phoenix was about to light a cigarette while oil was dripping everywhere. so he gets some bonus points for doing that
