Parzival TV

MAAARRRIOOO where are youuuu!

When looking for the Jade Key, you’re heading down the wrong path if you start to think Anorak’s referencing the tv show The Space Giants in the third line of his Quatrain. Miko’s summoning of Goldar via a “magic space whistle” has absolutely no relevance to the riddle…

Instead, think “Crunchberries”.

Yeah, he wanted it so bad it could of cost him his life… mo’ money mo’ problems.

From the 1985 A&M Films movie “Better Off Dead” starring John Cusack.

Totally Boss Trivia:

During the Christmas presents scene at Lane’s house you can see a large, phallic shaped robot. What is the name of the robot and in which killer 80′s tv show did he star?

Believe it or not, in 1985 the game Dungeons & Dragons was actually a very controversial topic… oh do I miss the quaint security of those times.

John Draper (alias Captain Crunch) was one of the very first computer hackers in the 70′s and self-titled “phone phreak”. Draper discovered that a whistle included as a Captain Crunch cereal premium delivered the proper 2600-hertz tone to screw with the antiquated phone systems of his day. This lead to him being able to take control of the phone lines and become a total underground bad-ass.

…No this is just a Tribute.

Study your lines carefully…

Broderick asked the studio to send him a Galaga stand-up one month before the shooting of the film so he could practice and they actually sent him one…
