3D Weekend Five: Movie Lines We Love

Wankette — Sat, 04 Feb 2012 14:30:42 +0000

Always reliable.

5. “He doesn’t know it’s a damn show. He thinks it’s a damn fight!” — Tony Burton as Apollo Creed’s trainer/Rocky: Just watched the Oscar winner for the 100th time. Wow, that was some fight — and Burton’s character summarizes the whole plot here.

4. “There’s no crying in baseball!” — Tom [...]

3D Weekend Five: Disney Sidekicks (Animated)

Wankette — Sat, 28 Jan 2012 14:30:29 +0000

Because I just read the 10th article in as many days as to why Disney = Teh Evul.

Counterpoint #1: That studio turned out some of the most charming & unforgettable supporting performances in film over the years. And most of them were drawn that way.*

*Jessica Rabbit reference.

5. Dory (Ellen DeGeneres, Finding Nemo, 2003): [...]

3D Weekend Five: Rival Me This, Batman

Wankette — Sat, 21 Jan 2012 15:30:54 +0000

Championship games tomorrow; BCS come and gone; March Madness looms…

Yeah, sports are on the brain. And almost as fun (and certainly less nerve-wracking) as rooting for your favorites is rooting AGAINST the ones you scorn, despise, curse, etc.

Without getting nasty! name the sporting ones you love to hate.

5. Yankees: Of course.

4. [...]

3d Weekend Five: Gaming It

Wankette — Sat, 14 Jan 2012 15:30:53 +0000

Here’s a list I know nothing about. Lately, however, the Nephew du Wank has embraced the Wii. I have been forced to sit through Lego Star Wars and, since Christmas, Super Mario Cars.

Guilt has plagued me ever since, and I feel as if I’ve abandoned you GameBoys.

So, gimme your Top Five video games. [...]

3D Weekend Five: 80s Dartboard

Wankette — Sat, 07 Jan 2012 15:50:59 +0000

A thanks to Eric & Outlaw, who keep that decade fresh for all of us.

What was the dumbest fashion? coolest trend? greatest video game? TV show? film? group? album? music video? book?

5. dumbest fashion: women’s hair – Not mine, of course! but every female lead singer of the era.

4. tie: song: Shout (Tears for [...]

3D Weekend Five: End-of-the-Year Dartboard

Wankette — Sat, 31 Dec 2011 15:30:30 +0000

Closing thoughts on the Year That Was: 2011. Fabulous new TV shows/movies/books/music you discovered? joys? irritations? anyone leave us this year you’ll especially miss? resolutions? regrets?

5. Downton Abbey (TV show): It’s soapy goodness in Edwardian England, pre- and during WWI.

4. TCM’s Robert Osborne: His time away was too long, but it made me appreciate [...]

3D Weekend Five: Special Christmas Episodes

Wankette — Sat, 24 Dec 2011 18:00:58 +0000

Sparked by watching the Happy Days one from 1974 (“Guess Who’s Coming to Christmas?”) where Richie discovers Fonzie’s been lying about going to visit family for the holidays, and with his father’s help, persuades the Fonz to spend the 24th with the Cunninghams.

Just as retailers trot out their finest & shiniest at this time of [...]

3D Weekend Five: Comic Strips

Wankette — Sat, 17 Dec 2011 15:30:03 +0000

Thanks to Kriskey, who inspired today’s list with his Calvin & Hobbes video.

5. Wizard of Id (Johnny Hart & Brant Parker, 1964): The first ten years had some funny stuff. (Rodney: “Tax returns from a Western Province!” King: “How far West?” Rodney: “I’m not sure, but the zip code is EIEIO.”)

4. Peanuts (Charles Schulz, [...]

3D Weekend Five: One-hit Wonder-ful

Wankette — Sat, 10 Dec 2011 15:30:49 +0000

(Apologies for last week..I was in the first 24 hours of what is now the 168-hour flu…)

AM-radio fan that I was, I could probably spin a Five for every year since 1971. And a special section just for disco!

5. Tighter & Tighter, Alive ‘N Kickin’ (1970): One of those bouncy pop love songs [...]

3D Weekend Five: Leftovers

Wankette — Sat, 26 Nov 2011 15:13:58 +0000

Since food’s on our collective minds…

What are your faves from Thanksgiving, and what Dagwood variations do you indulge in during the Weekend of Leftovers?

5. Turkey: Because you have to start somewhere. I far prefer the season’s sliced-off-the-bone to the read-a-newspaper-thin from the deli section.

4. Stuffing: The “Snowflake Dish” — no two are [...]
