| 32665 | Debbie Reynolds (Carrie Fisher's mother.) has a stroke. | I can't help but remember a quote from MST3K, the episode "Space Mutiny", where 3 of the main characters are together in a scene and Crow declares they are "Sting, Debbie Reynolds, and God". Funny what things trigger memories of people. This quote will always remind me of her and her loss. <br><br>The scene is at 0:23<br><br><iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/ShGJ_fXp5yI" allowfullscreen="" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0"></iframe> | Vaporman87 | Dec 31, 2016 | |
| 32664 | Most Beautiful Television Stars of the '80s | Speaking of Married...With Children, here's Milla Jovovich in a 1989 episode. Loooonnnggggg before her Resident Evil film debut.<div><br></div><div>She played a French foreign exchange student. Weird, considering Milla's Ukrainian.<br><div><br></div><div><img src="https://s28.postimg.org/8ejv0ilbx/milla_j_mwc_GC.jpg"></div></div> | Mr Magic | Dec 30, 2016 | |

| 32662 | The Café | <p>Wow, I feel duped. He died months ago. The news is playing it off like it just happened to get clicks I guess. </p> | vkimo | Dec 30, 2016 | |
| 32661 | The brilliance of Mr. John Hughes. | One I'd like to see is <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0101635/">Curly Sue</a>. I had no idea John directed and wrote this.<div><table border="0" cellpadding="5" cellspacing="0" width="480" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;"><tbody><tr><td width="380"><br><br></td></tr></tbody></table></div> | Mr Magic | Dec 30, 2016 | |
| 32660 | Last Movie You Watched | Star Wars: Rogue One<div><br></div><div>I did NOT like it, ahh, I can feel the flurry of boos and thrown popcorn.</div><div><br></div><div>The problem with Rogue One was the characters. After 2+ hours, I couldn't name half of the crew. Some of the them like Juan Solo were down right irritating. </div><div><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-size: 10pt;">Lots of lines of dialogue were botched. My favorite character was Donnie Yen's monk but he was clearly working with a language coach for each scene and lots of his lines came out confused or misplaced. </span></div><div><br></div><div>Another big issue was the story. If you watch the original movies, the Empire Strikes Back you don't see a caption that says "Hoth: Location of secret rebel base" because you know what is going on. In ten minutes, Rogue One has like six cuts to six different planets. </div><div><br></div><div>SPOILERS Hey-o!</div><div><br></div><div>1. They go to Jedha to get a transmission from Saw who promptly dies</div><div><br></div><div>2. They go to generic Imperial mine to meet Jyn's dad who promptly dies</div><div><br></div><div>3. They go to paradise planet where everyone promptly dies</div><div><br></div><div>What was the point of step 2? Why is Juan Solo upset that Jyn's dad is dead when it was his mission to kill him?</div><div><br></div><div>I like the idea of individual stories set in the Star Wars universe but I did not like this one. </div> | echidna64 | Dec 30, 2016 | |

By the time they saw some of their last big successes not even those successes could make up for years of loses.<div><br></div><div>It also looks like they were having a lot of issues behind the scenes business wise in regards to stocks and who was in control of what.</div> | Rick Ace Rhodes | Dec 30, 2016 | |
