TIL. Professor Wickwire in Brisco County Jr., Gomez Addams, and Samwise Gamgee's adoptive father are the same person.

Voice wise in Brisco, he sounds a heck of a lot like Meredith Wilson in the Burns and Allen radio show (which is what led me to look up the above).

About time! No more movies where the trailer is better than the movie itself!

Now if only they could find a way to force them to not reveal the whole movie in the trailer...

I just saw that Sam Bankman-Fired (sic) was released on a $250 million bond.

I really hope that was paid in actual dollars, and not crypto-Monopoly money that might drastically change value in the space of 1 hour...

If it's a bond, then he likely had to provide 10% or something of that amount up front, to the bonding agency.

Will they take dogecoins and unsold copies of SFNG? If I have to, I'll crack open the Pog Vault!

On the contrary, now they'll be obliged to do so, lest they be accused of misleading their audience.

I'm going to make a movie just so I can put a disclaimer at the beginning that says that all scenes shown in the trailer have been deleted due to last-minute editing...
