The only thing wrong with Rear Window is I keep getting confused and thinking it's called Room With A View and end up having very confused conversations with people.

So, wait, in Australia, someone from a Trollope novel hosts Wheel of Fortune?? Good LORD, people!
Wait, does that mean other fictional characters exist down there too? <considers buying ticket to go ambush a few favorites...>
Angus G -
Not only that meara, all our puzzles are titles of Victorian novels. We're very educated here...well, all except the contestant who once had to buy a vowel for "M_DDL_M_RCH".

The Core looks like it could be the Worst. Movie. Ever. It looks like it's basically Armageddon, but going down, rather than up, and Jon opined Friday night that's probably exactly how it was pitched to the execs who greenlighted it.
Theodosia -
Yeah, the lack of The Core trailer was sad, because it's impossible to really convey how truly awful it was, like Campbell's Condensed Armageddon Soup, all in a minute-and-a-half trailer form.
Plei in Bitchy Fic, re: characters we love and their chances of ever knowing one bit of happiness.
I'm torn between wanting to torture them even more, and wanting to feed them soup.

Ms. Havisham:
"So the most difficult present to wrap this year is my mom's body
pillow."
Dana: I gotta say, the line break there really gave me pause.
