I don't know. One night with Euron and she's sending a crossbow for Jaime.
I'm sure some of this isn't just about the racial makeup of the troupe, but also about sketches like the second(?) one in the Money Programme episode, with the Japanese film director impersonating an Italian director. A generous reading is that the sketch is saying something about racism in Britain at the time, the veneration of the Italian film director vs. the rather horrible stereotype of the Japanese impersonator. (Interesting given that both Italy and Japan were Axis powers in WWII, and references to WWII abound in Python.)
Of course, a less generous reading is that the sketch is horribly racist and has aged terribly, if it wasn't seen as horrible at the time.
Reminds one a bit of the more recent trouble Stephen Colbert had with his Ching Chong character.
In any case, it's perhaps an inevitable issue with satire -- satirize something offensive, and the audience may be confused whether it should be read as satire or offending.
Reminded me of Hitchcock too, but I can't be more specific.
I don't know how old I was, five or six. My first memory is of jumping into a backyard swimming pool when we were visiting a friend of my parents. There were submerged hoops and I swam through them.
Steve Buscemi's delivery of "Put me in coach!" in the Sopranos was wonderful.
My guess is he fears his psychiatric report getting out more than either of those.
I left out the part? What the hell are you talking about? You haven't answered my question at all. You just get on your soapbox about this, if anyone asked me, dumb and boring case that's already getting way more attention than it deserves, and refuse to answer why you think NOT HAVING A MURDER MAKES IT WORSE. (Your words!)
I think "Lisa as president" implies the flash-forward sequence when she's an adult.
I watched enough of it to hear him make 3 logical mistakes. It took about 20 seconds.
He couldn't debunk his way out of a paper bag.
Well, but, what he says there isn't enough to implicate him in the college thing. It sounds like he's talking about the movie business there. (It's pretty much true of any industry though, isn't it? Parents can get their kids jobs in most industries, I would think.)
Huh. I went to Catholic school and don't recall getting hit by a single ruler.
Plus, nuns are hot, too!
>It's like another OJ Simpson story except there weren't murders and a trial. Hopefully, this makes it worse on Smollett...
To highlight where you're losing me:
>It's like another OJ Simpson story EXCEPT THERE WEREN'T MURDERS AND A TRIAL. HOPEFULLY, THIS MAKES IT WORSE ON SMOLLETT...
Believe me, I don't need you to tell me the OJ Simpson story. Do you see how the highlighted portion seems illogical?
I'd never heard the importance of being short before. Does it have something to do with the cameras? Or they can save money building the sets smaller? Is it cheaper on insurance because when there's an accident there will be less of a target?
I really have no idea what you're saying. I also think it's absurd to impose your rules of what a fantasy world should be on a fantasy world that you aren't the creator of. Sounds like a recipe for bitterness and heartache.
Ah I see. Did you not get my joke? (I hate explaining jokes, by the way.)
What difference does Ned's age make? Where are you getting Cat's age from? The actress who played her would have been in her 40s. If you're looking to say she'd have been too old to have kids, you should look at the age of the youngest. Rickon, I believe?
Anyway, I don't think you've uncovered anything interesting here.
Sorry, I don't get your joke.
Where do you stand on the flat earth?
"You like me! You really, really like me!"
She was excellent in Maniac, by the way. (Among many other wonderful roles over the years.)
