I have come to the realization that 70s and 80s sci-fi and horror movies were just like that because chances are the filmmakers were all on coke during that time

Gender? More like, give me EXACTLY what Harold Ramis and Sigourney Weaver have (*in a totally non-threatening way*)

Apart from being a piece of apocalyptic fiction and an investigation of a parallel world, The Watchmen is also a murder story and a detective story. Right from the first issue you have this obsessive, paranoid, psychotic detective working through a doomed America trying to find somebody who’s killed the Comedian.

Dave Gibbons & Alan Moore on Watchmen (1986) in Amazing Heroes #97, June 1986.

Pretty much any Michael Mann film can be described as: "the masculine urge to fuck your entire life up".

I refuse to elaborate any further.

just found out tom got his hollywood walk of fame star in 86, it’s just funny to me some actors have to wait decades for one and he got one after the minimum 5 years of experience time required

so i looked it up one night when insomnia was kicking my ass because i love wikipedia and filling my brain with useless information and by my count 19 film actors have received their star on the walk of fame before turning 30 and of those 19 people only 4 of them were under 25 and of those 4 tom cruise is the only one who was born after 1945

A whole bunch of past and present Starmania stars were on TV in Quebec for a special... Which doesn't seem to be available anywhere online! Finally some actual television promo and we don't even get to see it 🤣🤣🤣

3/4 current Québec cast members took part - except Miriam, who was sunbathing in Cuba.
