Hello Landfill fans. The Phantom is taking a break from mediocre movies to address a couple more things with you. Consider this a bit of a continuation of my "For Those Who 'Tuned in Late'" entry a few posts back (http://latenitelandfill.blogspot.com/2008/03/for-those-who-tuned-in-late.html)
1.) WHAT IS THE PHOTO ON THIS PAGE SUPPOSED TO BE, ANYWAY?
You may have wished you never asked: it's "spaghetti with mealworms." And it's a real dish. Of course, the thought of it would turn most of our stomachs. I thought it made an appropriate image for the Late Nite Landfill given the nature of many of the films we feature - they can be appetizing to a point, but may also leave a bad taste overall.
You can learn more about mealworms here at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mealworms - however, whenever looking anything up on Wikipedia, be sure to keep these words of Michael Scott from "The Office" in mind:
2.) CAN I TURN OFF THE "RECOMMENDATIONS LIST" SCROLLING AT THE BOTTOM OF TRAILERS FROM THE VIDEO DETECTIVE?
Yes, you can. Most of the trailers on this site come from either the YouTube or Video Detective sites. Recently, Video Detective has added their own form of "pop-up ads" to their trailers - with a list of "recommendations" that scroll at the bottom of the trailers. It can be quite distracting. I just learned (by accident) that you can turn the recommdations lists off. If you play a trailer and the list starts, you'll see a small white triangle outline or "down arrow" next to the list. Just click on it and the recommendations list will... "PRESTO!"... disappear, just like "magic!":
