I'm one o' the pledgers to your Kickstarter campaign, Joe. Trailers from Hell is a great site and I appreciate those in the industry who work hard to teach film as an art form.

As much as I love GREMLINS, my favorite film of yours might be THE 'BURBS, which I count as one of the funniest '80s movies out there. Was there ever any talk of revisiting that world? And do you, like me, sometimes wish that Tom Hanks would revisit his comedy roots?

Thanks Joe.

Hi guys! Thanks for the AMA.

I must admit to not following Community (I know... I'm sorry). But I WAS an avid follower of The Office until a couple seasons ago, so maybe you would take a minute to answer an Office question or three (?)

First, have either of you narrowed down the season, or perhaps even a particular episode, when The Office jumped the shark? (Mine is 'Sabre' from Season 6 if you don't mind my input.) Also, given its current awfulness, laziness, desperation, and joke recycling, do you expect ANY of the last episodes of The Office to receive an 'A' grade from your publication?

Finally, do either of you have any preferences as to what you'd like to see from the show's finale? Is there anything that the writing staff could possibly come up with to make the last few years seem a bit more bearable in retrospect?

Thanks. :)

Hey Tim! Never met you in person, but I love you, man. Hero worship aside, I attended my first Fantastic Fest last year as a member o' the press from Denver, which was also my first trip to Austin. Needless to say, I fell in love with both and constantly extol The Alamo to family and friends as the only way to go see a movie. Once you go Drafthouse, you never go Craphouse (trademark pending).

Anyhow, did your Alamo model come from something as simple as going to cookie cutter AMC and Regals, being irritated with the inconsiderate mouth breathers that inhabit such places, and thinking "There's gotta be a better way"?

Also, can I work for the Alamo? I'll perform any manner of vile deed necessary. Thanks! ;)

A question for Bill Norris...

Bill, I wanted to say that I thoroughly enjoyed your series of articles on Badass about MAD MEN cocktails last year. Pulitzer Prize: Internet Edition worthy. Excellently written pieces that really gave me a sense of the history of said drinks and an appreciation of the craft.

I still read the 'Your Guide to Drinking This Weekend' series, and love that too, but I have to ask if you're planning on any further specific series that tie a particular piece of pop culture with mixed drinks.

Thanks, Bill. :)
