They've rebuilt the the Psycho house a bunch of times.
I did not know that. I was so disappointed when I got to peek inside and it was just an empty shell. Then I felt silly for expecting something real in Hollywood.

A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Kids these days....
From my vantage point, it looks like the Universal fire may have flared back up. Off to check the news.
I imagine he's currently sleeping soundly in Pasadena
Yeah, I completely forgot about the time difference when I posted that.
this google hit reminded me to check the date on things...
Bomb Threat and Then Fire Strike at Universal Studios
in the tiny print under the headline:
Published: September 6, 1987
Nothing on the tube. What happened to Fox 11? They used to break into anything to cover a fire.

It was pure fluke that I happened to be up so friggin' early this morning. It's Sunday! I wanted to sleep in! I was up by 6:00 (though I didn't really get out of bed until 7:00).
It's Sunday! I wanted to sleep in!
For me, 8:30 is sleeping in. One of my least favorite things about being a parent.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who makes mistakes with dates. A reporter asked the president of Universal about the bomb threat.
I saw Prince Caspian yesterday. I thought it was incredibly dull and ponderous, and everything Aslan said was horrifically "Chicken Soup for the Soul". Also, the score was completely ineffective, until the last song, which I thought was so obnoxious as to be offensive. Then too, If I hadn't read the books a dozen times and enjoyed the first movie, I would have had no idea what was going on. Couldn't they have had a couple of hundred fewer shots of Lucy's face looking cute and mysterious and replaced them with at least a LITTLE exposition?
In the plus column.... um. Reepicheep was cute, if way underused.
ETA: Edited because "pithy" does not mean exactly what I thought it meant.
