There’s a made-for-TV movie remake of The Lion in Winter from 2003 starring Patrick Stewart and Glenn Close.
Blu-ray movies are encoded at a maximum of 40 Mbps, compared to 29.4 Mbps max. for HD-DVD and 8 Mbps max. for DVD (5 Mbps average). VHS tapes would be the equivalent of 2 Mbps.
Paul Reubens had auditioned for Saturday Night Live in 1980 and was rejected. Gilbert Gottfried was chosen instead.
Did you guys hear Pee-Wee is doing his stage show again? It’s happening in Los Angeles. Holy hell he’s gotta be sixty years old.
Esteban, thanks for the link. That’s crazy! And you’re right, Paul Reubens will be 57 in eight days. Pee-wee’s an old man now, which makes me a little sad.
