I've been hooked on the free streaming video site
Hulu the whole summer. And not just because I can watch episodes of
The A-Team whenever I get a B.A. Baracus craving.
Since June they've launched a new movie or TV show every weekday in their
Days of Summer series (it ends in a few weeks). Today they premiered
The Taking of Pelham One Two Three. Not one of my favorites, but for the most part I've been impressed by their taste:
Lost In Translation,
The Three Stooges collection,
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, (and that was just the first three days of the series, talk about coming out of the box strong)
Raising Arizona,
Lost Highway,
Casino Royale (1967),
Coffee and Cigarettes,
Weird Science (yes, sometimes you just need some
Kelly LeBrock on a hot day),
Open Your Eyes,
Hoop Dreams and
Groundhog Day.
If you haven't been to the site I highly recommend it. There's nothing like getting through the work day by watching
Bill Murray repeat the same one.

I'm ashamed of how much joy the Doogie Howser catalog brings me.
There's a Tony Scott re-make of "Pelham" slated for a 2010 release, what!

How can you deny the wonders of Pelham?
Correll: Boy, I never thought I'd see the day when talking to murderers took priority over running a railroad.
Lt. Garber: Get off it, will you, Frank? My only priority is saving the lives of these passengers.
Correll: Screw the goddamn passengers! What the hell did they expect for their lousy 35 cents - to live forever?
