Loved the movie as a kid. Had the LP, would listen to that record all the time and be able to see on my minds eye the movie as the vinyl spun round and round. Lost it as time progressed and I got older. My family recently started collecting records again and while in the record store my wife calls out to me and hold up a copy of The Black Hole. Gatefold with the story pages intact. It was an immediate buy. Got home and put that thing on right away and it is PERFECT. What a fantastic movie and being able to share it (had to skip Perkins’s final encounter with Maximilian as my daughter was too young) and having to explain the last scenes with my family is greatness.

Superman is a dick.
Reminded me of Fantastic Planet 1973
It is called King Nyani. It was delivered to Brookfield Zoo in 2021 after spending a year on display at Hudson Yards in New York (USA). There are two others, one at the Brice Museum in Connecticut (USA) and one at Taronga Zoo in Sydney (Australia).
This was my first thought too.
Technically not hair.
Hoyvin-glavin! A fun fact, before his first appearance on The Simpsons Profesor Frink had spent a short time working as a character for hire. This is from one of his early appearances in The Far Side.
Somewhere off scene in the turbolift during ST III…
Bones: “Did she change her face?”
Kirk: “I hadn’t noticed.”
Is THAT a Supra?
the Cow was the Dish of the Day at Milliways, which arrived when Zaphod Beeblebrox (accompanied by Arthur, Ford, and Trillian) requested to ‘meet the meat’. It was described as a large dairy animal, a “large fat meaty quadruped of the bovine type.” It was said to have large watery eyes, as well as small horns and what might have been an ingratiating smile on its lips. The creature seems peaceful and at ease, and at one point is described to have “mooed.”
The creature offers Zaphod and his party his shoulder, braised in a white wine sauce, then goes on to offer other parts of its body, having worked hard to fatten itself up through force-feeding itself for months. Eventually, after Arthur and Trillian have expressed their shock and Ford has expressed his disinterest, Zaphod requests four rare steaks and the Dish of the Day goes off to shoot himself, telling Arthur not to worry, as he says “I’ll be very humane.”[1]
Obligatory…
Was looking for classic Halloween music mixes on YouTube Music the other day while carving pumpkins with my daughter. A few well known songs came up and then all of a sudden songs that were not Halloween songs started playing in the list (some were regular well ( own pop songs). I let it go on for a few minutes and started seeing a theme that the non-halloween song had a often repeated word that was associated with Halloween… Demon, spirit, spooky… So AI generated playlists based on keywords?
Then came along AI generated “Halloween classic” songs that sounded as if they were from the 1950’s. They were ok, but annoying knowing that it was just slop.
Thanks! Edited
VLDL - Viva La Dirt League did a couple videos like this…
Honestly that’s what happens when you try to date Dru
It plays perfectly.
