I ran across this while channel-hopping on Sunday. I was surprised to see The Lady of Rage, as I had been wondering whatever happened to her. However, when Yo-Yo came out and started rapping "You Can't Play With My Yo-Yo" something broke inside of me and I started crying tears of joy. While I didn't know all of the performers, the whole show was wonderful. I loved seeing Arrested Development, Queen Latifah, Cypress Hill, De La Soul, and Doug E. Fresh and DJ D-Nice's tribute to those rappers we've lost was fantastic. The DJ Jazzy Jeff and The Fresh Prince reunion was awesome. It felt so good to hear those old songs again.
I loved Letterman going back to the 1980s. The Top Ten Lists, Late Night Monkey Cam, Paul and the band, everything. I had watched the final episode of The Tonight Show With Johnny Carson and knew what Johnny meant and what he had accomplished, but to me he represented a previous era. I didn't have the emotional connection with Johnny that I did with Dave. Watching this show, particularly the great final Top Ten List, was emotional for me. The part that really hit me was when Dave was introducing the CBS Orchestra for the last time ever. Then Foo Fighters played "Everlong" to close things out in style. Thanks for the memories Dave. Oh, and definitely read Jason Zinoman's "Letterman: The Last Giant of Late Night."
The viewer is dropped into a meeting of a mysterious organization that has decided that someone has "lived too long" and that it's their responsibility to kill him. Cards are dealt out and one of them gets the Ace of Hearts, meaning it's his job to do the killing. What follows is a whole lot of talking leading up to a gratuitous swerve that explains nothing and is supposed to be a proper resolution. I hated that when it happened in "The Usual Suspects" and I hated it here too. The Netflix DVD sleeve didn't even list any kind of plot description, just saying that it was about "murder and mayhem," and it failed at even that. I never thought I would feel let down by a Lon Chaney movie, but this one did it. Avoid.
