As it's an open coffin, not sure how that would work? Evil demonic laughter for the japor snippet however...

That thing is the cursed tiki idol of the prequels. ;)
Enlighten me? I have no idea who or what Vork is...

Does he have enough dialogue?
...
There's plenty of time to decide, but for the moment I'm leaning towards using Vork.
He's in several episodes and the Bender's Game movie. Grevious doesn't exactly have a lot of lines, and I like the idea of him being totally nuts. :)

No. How many fart jokes must I reject?
They look more like horses to me. They could whinny and neigh ala the cow creatures in AOTC. ;)
Another idea for Grievous, Bender's psychotic knife wielding pal...
As Harry and The Hendersons was a Universal film, it seems unlikely he would hang out at a Disney park. ;)
IIRC, one of the actors that replaced Hall on the HATH tv series used to work in the theme parks.
Interesting. I haven't seen color tinted lobby cards from a late 70's film before. They often seem to be done by someone who has no idea what the actual colors are. Some 2001: A Space Odyssey lobby cards I've seen have equally odd color choices.

I don't think I've ever had a DVD or Blu Ray disc, suffer DVD rot. I have had problems with a few skipping. Sometimes cleaning does the trick, sometime it was the machine. I have also had situations where a disc will skip and be unplayable in one machine, but play perfectly fine in another.
It's more rare than LD rot, but it does happen, especially with early discs. My late 90's copy of Moonraker is unplayable, and the first pressing of Goldfinger has one bad layer that won't play. A couple other discs in my collection have changed color under the surface like Moonraker has, but remain playable so far.
HD DVD is threatening to unseat Laserdisc as the rot king.
Blu Ray is still young enough to still have playback bugs across all the brands out there.

Not to mention that Playboy spread later that same year. ;)

Anyway, what were people's thoughts on Michele Obama presenting an award? I'm a fan of the Obamas but I've never liked how they use media. I feel like something like that should be beneath a person in a position of such power. It's not quite as horrible as Barack himself on say the Late Show, but it not only surprised me - it shocked me. And to give her Best Picture? Oh, I mean, COME ON.
People are overreacting and have very short memories. ;)
How about this fellow for Grievous? ;)
I've seen this photo many times over the years. Apparently it was always cropped to avoid showing Greedo in the corner, as it looks like he's dumping his shipment of spice...
Vader's secret apprentice revealed!
You've started a whole sub-genre!
Here's a still...

Wow, I had no idea that scene was real. I knew about the other two, but I thought Betty Boop's nipples were just an urban legend. Apparently I was wrong.
Does the "For a good time, call Allison Wonderland" graffiti in the Toontown bathroom have that alleged one-frame subliminal phone number? Supposedly, it was Michael Eisner's phone number, but even if it wasn't, I'm assuming it was removed because it was a real number (like the 1-800-SPANK-ME dialogue that has been expunged from The Santa Clause since the late 90s).
Who exactly is the source of this rumor, a projectionist? An insider? No one else would be able to read a "one-frame" phone number.
I definitely could see the name on the wall on the CAV Laserdisc, but the number wasn't legible on my old analog tv. All of these gags were not discovered until the early 90's, at least that's when it made the news. It actually caused the CAV to sell out years after it was released.
Disney was so paranoid by the late 90's, they recalled the LD of Roger Rabbit shorts for one barely noticeable sight gag. (With dubious claims the discs had glue problems.) Copies still got out of course, and mine is pristine. ;)
Shatner as Kirk? In uniform?
You can't kill something that's been dead for years now. ;)
Seriously though, I only caught the James Bond salute. That was nice.
Anybody watching the Oscars tonight? My cable has been sputtering on account of the windy weather, but I did catch Shirley Bassey singing Goldfinger. She simply does not age!
Did Sean, George, Roger, Timothy, Peirce, and Daniel show up? Rumors were still flying about that earlier today...
Neat! I'm surprised that there isn't a Star Wars themed bar out there somewhere. I've seen photos of a TGI Fridays where most of the knick knacks were old Kenner SW toys, which made me feel a bit old. ;)
When Mace plummets to his doom...the famous "goofy holler" sound.

What did you all think of livestream? Better than synchtube? It seemed like the community sync worked better this time.
Seems like there were less technical hassles compared to last time. There doesn't seem to be a tab to show who else is in the chatroom unless they speak.
Good show!
No problem. Only thing I don't like about livestream is password manager in firefox won't store my frakking password for later. ;)
The 30 second Austin Powers clip works for me...
