I was going to say Teenage Mutant Ninja turtles (1990) When Rafael or one of the Ninja Turtles is walking around you can see a Poster or a Movie Theatre Marquee banner for Critters. But you say that doesn't count. Ok. Well I always thought that part of the movie was humorous and I fantasize that it is like an easter egg or something for some future Ninja turtles movie where they have to fight the Critters.

yeah I think we did have a thread once dedicated to movies which feature posters of other movies...

we definitely had one for movies where you see someone watching another movie on a tv screen.

that kind of thing seems a bit more subtle and incidental though. whereas if they're actually saying the other movie's name out loud
then it's cleary a more intentional and direct reference (erm...or something?  :smile: )

Recent high-tech scans and exceptional fossil finds have revealed that dinosaurs had unique body structures, complex social lives, and diverse skin coverings previously unknown to science.

New Physical Traits and Armor

Hollow Spikes: Scientists discovered a 125-million-year-old plant-eating dinosaur in China (Haolong dongi) covered in hollow, porcupine-like spikes—a skin structure never seen before in dinosaurs.

Baroque Armor: Researchers analyzing Spicomellus afer, a 165-million-year-old ankylosaur from Morocco, found unusual spiked armor fused directly to the ribs, creating an extreme and bizarre defensive look.

Advanced X-ray Scans: Micro-CT scanning revealed hidden internal details like clustered gastroliths (stomach stones) and embryonic skull bones in tiny fossils without damaging the fragile material.

Surprising Behaviors and Habitats

Polar Nesting: Discoveries in the Arctic proved that some dinosaurs did not just migrate, but successfully lived, bred, and raised young in polar environments with months of total darkness and freezing temperatures.

Complex Ecosystems: Unprecedented fossil finds have caught predators mid-action or mapped out specific prehistoric food chains—such as marine reptiles and flying pterosaurs interacting in ancient marine ecosystems.

Antarctic Giants: Re-evaluating old expeditions using modern identification techniques confirmed that massive, long-necked titanosaurs roamed the forested, ice-free ecosystems of ancient Antarctica.

That John Cusack movie Must Love Dogs. You know that film where he makes old time canoes for a living. I mean seriously. Who does that? I don't even think someone like Bill Gate's son could get away with that. Hey babe come over to my lovely pad. Oh what do you do for a living? Oh I make these wonderful old time canoes. Yeah it's a modest profession..

Yeah sure. In what universe. Well anyway. Oh yeah Must Love Dogs John Cusack keeps talking about Dr. Zhivago. I mean gets to the point where it is halfway annoying. Like the whole movie is a Dr. Zhivago cult or something. It's like seriously. You mean you want to live in Russia when that whole Bolshevik revolution was happening. There was obviously a dark side to that, it wasn't just all about some lovey dovey romance. Must Love Dogs — Dr. Zhivago. Umm..That's all I can think of. I will be on the look out for this though. Do I get money or points though if I can keep coming up with them? Does the movie Timeline ever reference a Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court? Or are we just supposed to know that that is what the movie is supposed to be?

I WANT YOUR SEX: A contemporary artist manipulates her naive assistant into a BDSM relationship that (naturally) spirals out of control. Not insightful enough to work as a satire, wacky enough for a mainstream comedy, or believable enough for a dramedy, Greg Araki's latest horny offering is best seen as a exaggerated character study and showcase for Olivia Wilde's committed portrait of a sociopathic artist. 3/5.

Not especially. The Williams, which was settings of AE Housman poems, was the best, but I can't see putting anything into my regular rotation.



This one is a collection of traditional Spanish music from Spain and Latin America with a few classical pieces thrown in. A nice listen, again, not sure if I'd put it in rotation.
