As a fan of live sashimi, I would like to try Klingon Gakh.

Leprechaun does rap in one of his movies — but Freddy also had a whole LP where he talked over songs, was officially on a Fat Boys song, and unofficially on a Will Smith one. And Freddy hosted Freddy’s Nightmares. I grant there’s some competition, but I THINK he has the edge.

Perhaps I should have been clearer that the character actually has an arrest record for scamming — but an outright, upfront, honestly fake psychic would be fun.

Ha! Less self-aware humor but not too far off.

when you say the store is “filled almost exclusively with merchandise available at other shops around the park,” do you mean UNavailable at other shops? Because it’s not very exclusive if it’s available elsewhere.

I like the way you do grammar. Not sure our copy-editors would.

No, for the first 30 minutes they don’t mention a service animal.

His movie-length Danny Glover impersonation in Jumanji 3 is easily his greatest performance.

Every MOTU toy collector remembers what we call “200X.” It is the incarnation that has best balanced the silly and the serious for many of us.

Seems like one of those weird things akin to the way Fox and Disney used to be able to both use Quicksilver. Both the She-Ra cartoon and Revelation can clearly use the Horde, and Mondo’s toy license includes She-Ra. Yet aspects of the rights are clearly mutually exclusive in some areas.

As a half-Virginian myself, I must concur.

As you might expect, the movie does take advantage of that wording.

LOL. I ran the sentence construction by my wife, who often critiques my grammar obsessions, for a pass. I grant that it is not an absolute, and you may render judgment accordingly.

No obvious connections to Turn of the Screw.

On the one hand...mea culpa. On the other...when you see the movie, it kind of involves both at once? It made sense in my mind at the time!
