@DannyDrinksWine Empire of the sun was phenomenal. Why did the critics trash it?

George Lucas initially wanted to start the "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade" (1989) with a sequence showing Indy as a boy, but Spielberg initially disagreed with the idea. According to Lucas, Spielberg rejected the idea as he had really been trashed by the critics for "Empire of the Sun" (1987) & he had said. "I just don't want to do any more films with kids in them." Lucas also suggested making Indy III “a haunted-house movie.” He had such a script written by screenwriter Diane Thomas before her death in a 1985 car accident, but, Lucas said, “Steven had done 'Poltergeist' (1982), and he didn’t want to do another movie like that.” Menno Meyjes’s draft was about Indy’s quest for the Holy Grail, a plot device suggested by Lucas, left Spielberg dubious. However Spielberg agreed to do the movie about The Holy Grail on one condition. Spielberg said, "I will make the movie about the Holy grail but I want it to be about a father and son. I want to get Indy’s father involved in the thing. I want a quest for the father." "I wanted to do Indy in pursuit of his father, sharing his father’s dream, and in the course of searching for their dreams, they rediscover each other." However, according to screenwriter, Jeffrey Boam the Father-Son story was the idea of George Lucas. ("Steven Spielberg A Biography", Joseph McBride, 2010) P.S: On this day, 37 years ago, "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade" (1989) was released in the USA & Canada.

@chovwenofuru I thought he was too I didn’t see him again 7ntil Titanic and thought he looked familiar When I figured out he was Arnie I was blown away. WOW!!

When Leonardo DiCaprio went God Mode at 19 years old. He played the part of Arnie Grape so well that when he showed up for the film's premiere, many people were shocked and astonished to learn that the young actor was not actually mentally disabled.

@AHomelyHouse He knew that he couldn’t save Cora and Alice He knew that Hawkeye was their best chance for survival He loved her enough to die for her to live Hawkeye respected the sacrifice enough to save him from suffering This act set off one of the most incredible cinematic sequences

Major Duncan is a great example of the difference between dishonor and moral failing. Honor is something distinct from morality and ethics; this is why a sin or a moral offense may be forgiven, but dishonor may only be redeemed. Recovering your honor once it's been lost requires the most extreme action to redeem it, which is precisely what Duncan does when he offers himself to save Hawkeye and Cora. Though he had dishonored himself earlier on and spend most of the movie as a scumbag, his act of selfless heroism at the end redeems him and he dies an honorable man.

Why do Americans say "tuna fish" We know tuna is a fish, just say tuna

@BuzzPatterson Sources say he died in ‘17. I think he went into protective custody and is now doin’ some ‘Day of the Jackyl’ ops in South America

It’s time for us to bring back the “Gong Show!” We’ve lost that television magic! Is Chuck Barris still alive? 🤣🤣🤣

@SpencerAlthouse Wow. Even with Sir Paul he couldn’t get more than 5.5 million to watch. 🫤

wowww Paul McCartney just returned to the Ed Sullivan theater as Stephen Colbert's final guest on The Late Show...62 years after his first appearance with the Beatles in 1964. he surprised Stephen with a signed photo from that performance Stephen: "To Stephen: you're better than the Beatles." Paul: "No, it doesn't say that!" Stephen: "When my editors are done, that's what it's gonna say, Paul"

@bobcrane77 @EricLDaugh Change 👏 the 👏 time 👏 school 👏 starts ONCE Just change the time once and go on with the rest of our lives never thinking about it again.

@EricLDaugh Standard time is what we need to stay on. If they do this Kids will be standing at bus stops in the pitch black darkness, in winter, especially in northern states. This is a terrible idea.

🚨 JUST IN: President Trump announces legislation has ADVANCED to make PERMANENT Daylight Saving Time through the Sunshine Protection Act — and demands Congress make it LAW 🔥 No more time changes soon! "This is so important in that Hundreds of Millions of Dollars are spent every year by people, Cities, and States, being forced to change their Clocks. Many of these Clocks are located in Towers, and the cost of renting, or using, Heavy Equipment to do this twice a year is prohibitive!" "The House will be attaching The Sunshine Protection Act to “The Highway Bill.” Great work by Troy Nehls, and all of the Members who voted, as well, for Railway Safety." "I am going to work very hard to see The Sunshine Protection Act signed into Law. It’s time that people can stop worrying about the “Clock,” not to mention all of the work and money that is spent on this ridiculous, twice yearly production." "It will also be a very nice WIN for the Republican Party. Take it! We are going with the far more popular alternative, Saving Daylight, which gives you a longer, brighter Day — And who can be against that — This is an easy one! Thank you to everyone who supported this important Bill, and especially Chairman Brett Guthrie and Vern Buchanan. President DONALD J. TRUMP"

@MeKaytoo @Joni249510 @GSpellchecker Well it depends on your individual interpretation I guess.

Ok. Since I've annoyed enough strangers on the internet today, I might as well carry on: Why are people pretending she isn't beautiful enough for this role?

@harryjsisson Awweee. It’s a billionaire pity party.

Bruce Springsteen appeared on Stephen Colbert’s show tonight and COOKED Trump and his goons “I’m here in support tonight for Stephen, because you are the first guy in America who lost his show because we got a president who can't take a joke…. and because Larry and David Ellison feel they need to kiss his ass to get what they want. Stephen, these are small minded people. They got no idea what the freedoms of this beautiful country are supposed to be about”

@MarioNawfal Nah….that water’s from East Palestine OH

🇺🇸 AOC held up a jar of drinking water from Morgan County, Georgia. A brown, murky liquid is what families are cooking and bathing with after Meta built an AI data center nearby. Now they have to ship in clean water to make it by.

@ChristineW7 @Joni249510 @GSpellchecker So white armed means ◾️and bright hair means ⚫️ That’s what you’re tryin to say?

@Joni249510 @GSpellchecker That doesn't mean she was white. White armed just means she wasn't a lowly farm worker, it's describing someone from upper class society, that has servants to do heavy labour for them.

@GSpellchecker She is beautiful but Helen was European decent. It’s cultural misappropriation.

@GovPressOffice CA gas tax is .70 per gallon The highest gas tax in the US

Californians, if you’re hitting the road this holiday weekend, be sure to AVOID Chevron. Pro tip: unbranded gas comes from the same refineries, storage tanks, and pipelines, and it meets the same state standards to keep your engine running clean, even if it doesn’t have a fancy name like ‘Techron.’  Big Oil is already making billions off Trump’s Iran War; don’t let them rip you off even more by overpaying for the brand name.

@ShawnFleetwood 🤣😂 they want it……give it to them. Let’s give them a short list of possible nominees and get the ball rolling. I just recalled some suppressed memories of being assaulted about 20 years ago Im sure i will remeber who did it after the list is announced.

House Judiciary Chair Jim Jordan calls Democrats’ bluff on packing the Supreme Court. Jordan: “Why don’t we just add four justices now? If … we need to go [from] 9 to 13” as Democrats suggested, “why wouldn’t we just add them now?”

Hunter Schafer is a biological woman and your comment about her having "biological male strength" is transphobic! Estrogen HRT makes you weaker, it changes your whole hormonal base. You become a biological woman. You don't defend womanhood by making bioessentialist arguments.

@JonathanTurley Foreign born vs. dual citizenship 🤔

I strongly disagree with the push for a constitutional amendment to bar foreign-born legislators. foxnews.com/politics/mace-… While I have suggested the possible tinyurl.com/f86u4tce, I cannot think of anything more antithetical to our founding than barring foreign-born citizens from Congress. As a nation of immigrants, it is a reaffirmation of our heritage to have these citizens serve in government...

@hyzontopclipx It’s called communication with your partner. Why would you be in a relationship that you need to ‘sneak off’ later to take care of yourself? Just talk to your man

Halle Berry says most men are bad at s6x and women fake org6sm just so men can stop with the nonsense pounding , she says some men think aggressive pounding equals pleasure while women are secretly waiting for it to be over so they can handle things themselves afterwards. 👀👀💔 ‘Most women fake org6sm just so men can feel good and they can stop with the aggressive rubbish they do. they think being aggressive equals a good time but women are secretly waiting for it to be over so we can handle things ourselves after’ 👀👀
