Star Trek II: The Wrath Of Khan

This reminds me of the phrase "you snooze, you lose"

The Penguin History Of The United States Of America

This reminds me of trying to fit random words into History essays at school. Exacerbate being the favorite.

Rock In Rio

This reminds me of poorly thought through presents. Although it worked out in the end...

Lined up the next two posts as I'm away for the weekend, and finally added a picture to a post from the past: http://stuffthatremindsmeofotherstuff.blogspot.com/2009/03/one-day-these-legs-wont-dance.html

The Shawshank Redemption

Good movie, but reminds me of a jerk.

Sharky And George

The crime-busters of the sea. They remind me of the days I used to wake up before 6am on a Saturday to watch cartoons.

Thundercats - Ho: The Movie

Sometimes movies of great TV shows are rubbish. Much like this DIY picture, but it's the best you're gettin'.

Duck Hunt

This reminds me of a puppy named Toto.

The Ice Temple

Wow. OLD school.

This reminds me of games I could never complete. I really was useless at computer games when I was a kid.

Lost Dogs

This reminds me of waking up obscenely early in the morning to make breakfast for annoying and ungrateful little b... people.

The Goonies

Looks like I have some catching up to do...

This reminds me of a storm.

People in Kansas don't care about storms. Even when their electricity goes off and bits of tree are flying about the place.

Brilliant.

Dizzy Up The Girl

And this reminds me of a great CD shop which didn't help my financial state during the 2nd year of uni...

Cat's Cradle

This reminds me of my favorite bookshop in New York, and in fact, my favorite bookshop in the world.

So far...

Employment

This reminds me of a trip to Bournemouth, which actually occurred before this album was even released...

Weird.

Battlestar Galactica: Razor

This reminds me of getting bad news and dealing with it poorly.

The Lost World

I remember this book being real good, but this reminds me that a crap movie can destroy the good reputation of a book, because now I'm sure the book can't of been that good...

I should read it again...

Deep Space Nine

The only Star Trek series I can still watch without cringing. And sometimes even DS9 can cause a cringe.

This reminds me of superior alternatives to Hollyoaks.

Blow In The Wind

This reminds me of all the cassette tapes I have from back in the day. Old school!

Closer

I have never seen this movie. My hatred of Clive Owen overrode my love of Natalie Portman, so I avoided it.

This movie was one of those that is advertised by numerous billboards. It reminds me of one days travel around London, in which I counted 65 billboards, all devoted to Closer.

Live At Wembley Arena

This reminds me of how reluctant I was to do anything when I was younger. Damn shyness and caution.

If only I knew then what I know now.

The Strangers

This reminds me of my favorite movie theatre moment. A moment where all before me jumped in unison. I didn't move a muscle...

Jingo

Terry Pratchett again!

This reminds me of the London Marathon of 2003. Don't ask.

Wii Sports

This reminds me that no matter what I might have thought, I still have an annoying competitive streak.

The Fifth Elephant

This reminds me of the good parts of the summer of '02.

The War On Errorism

This reminds me of a dude with fine musical taste, and a whole bunch of computers.

Also, NOFX are way better than Green Day.

FIFA 2000

But the PC version.

This reminds me of the days when I stopped playing football and instead played computer games of it.

No longer. Now I do both.

Notes From A Big Country

This reminds me of laughing on my own in public places.

Tenacious D

This reminds me of a house. A house that was far too big.

Serenity

This movie reminds me of our last freeview or "idiot" box as I like to call it.

When are they gonna make digital TV more reliable by the way?

Xenocide

Reading a lot of Orson Scott Card at the moment to inspire myself to write.

This book is great and reminds me of standing at West Ham station in the cold, cold English May wind.

Wipeout Fusion

One of only two racing games I ever loved, the other being the mighty, mighty Mariokart.

This bizarrely reminds me of a chair.

Pump Up The Valuum

This album has one of my favorite tracks ever on it: 'Dinosaurs Will Die'. It reminds me of tracks I skipped when my parents were around due to potential embarrassment.

Strays

Great album, better hat.

I've been listening to this a lot recently. It reminds me of the C2C.

Black Books

Comedy gold.

This reminds me of beer. Which is odd because they only drink wine in this program, but not odd because I always drink beer when I watch it.

Torino 2006

Usually Olympic type games suck, but this was surprisingly good.

This reminds me of exceptions to rules and not judging books by their covers and stuff.

Aaahhhh, hours spent (wasted?) trying to set the fastest times in events like bobsleigh and luge. Fantastic.

Follow The Leader

This reminds me of buying albums based on one track.

Monopoly

This reminds me of the dozens of games I played as a kid, all the while losing.

But it's all good now, as a couple of weeks back I beat an unnamed opponent in minutes. Minutes I say!

Leon

Oops, technical difficulties...

This is a great movie. This reminds me of someone who used to love the quote "One thing has nothin' to do with the other". Too true.

Live On Two Legs

Gotta line up a few posts now as I'm away for the weekend.

This is another example of "borrowing" a CD. Although this one did make it's way back to it's rightful owner eventually.

This mostly reminds me of a pair of pink boots.

I Hope They Serve Beer In Hell

I just found out they're making a movie of this. I don't know what to say.

Not my usual type of book, but I couldn't help but find it hilarious.

This reminds me of a dog park on the Upper East Side in Manhattan where I used to read in the sun.

Volume One

Another reminder of the best kitty in the world, and more specifically the day it was discovered that Zooey Deschanel's voice had a soothing effect on her.

Are You Dave Gorman?

No. But this book is hilarious despite my obvious deficiency in the name department.

This book reminds me that Tequila doesn't only make people do stupid things, sometimes it makes people do great things.

Friday The 13th

I don't know why, but this reminds me of my formerly local and favorite pizza place in Brooklyn.

I suppose it's possible I watched this and consumed pizza at the same time, but I can't be sure.

The best thing about the place was that they sold genuine, bonafide "Freedom Fries". Fantastic.

Back In Black

This album is definitely NOT crap.

This reminds me of Canterbury and in particular the sofa I occasionally lived on between shifts.

Silver Side Up

Disclaimer: THIS ALBUM IS CRAP AND I KNOW IT.

But it is absolutely full of easily punnable song titles, and for that reason alone, I'll always remember it.

Casablanca

This reminds me that sometimes "Classics" are rubbish.

This movie is about as subtle as a sledgehammer or another, more amusing analogy. Perhaps that was a good thing for when it was released, but it doesn't make for good viewing now.

Ender's Game

We have just had a rather lenghty power cut, during which I read (again) most of this book.

It reminds me of avoiding Chemistry homework...

Never Mind The Bollocks

This reminds me that sometimes it's good to let someone else put music on your iPod.

Juno

This reminds me of going to the movies on my own, so far, this is the only time I've done it.

Ruin Jonny's Bar Mitzvah

A live album of some style.

And it actually reminds me of a Bar Mitzvah I attended half my life ago.

Great food, the non-alcoholic, children's equivalent of a mucky pint and breathing helium from balloons. What more could a kid want?

A caricature too? Sure, go for it. A fine night out.

Band Of Brothers

This reminds me that every now and then, there will be a non-clown, non-moron ginger haired character portrayed on TV.

Every now and then...
