He works better than Vin Diesel I think. But maybe they could have done one better and used an unknown actor. And there'd better be some in-jokes for fans of the game.

The last episode I saw of the new season was Episode 7 'Tsst'. Why did they release half the episodes then stop? My bet is that they were stuck for ideas after cartman swallowed all that fake treasure in ManBearPig, then crapped it all out furiously.

So you watching the series at the moment? I gotta say, they're gonna pull something good outta the bag for this last series.

See I would say E.T. but I'm not sure if it's that little weiner-kid Elliot or not. Never had the inclination to see that film so who knows.

posted in the forum: What is the worst movie you've ever seen?
Wedding Crashers I think is really good. Obviously Vince Vaughn adds to it phenomonally. And I think it's unfair to trash all films that don't use big words or are targeted at people who make sly jokes in suits about "commoners" or "hicks". Sometimes its good not to have to think about a joke too hard. Is it really that wrong to just laugh at a guy who's had his face beaten with a shovel or chased by a dog while wearing a German-esque outfit. (Only when designed for comedic value obviously). Good, dirty 'man-getting-hit-by-football' fun. However, saying that, DONT watch Date Movie. Its a crime against humanity. Everybody's got their limits.

I saw this film the day it came out, which is a first for me, I have to be honest there. I thought it was a really good film though. However, Jack's accent annoyed me a bit at times. Was he going for a Southey accent because it was pretty inconsistent. As was Ray Winstone's. When you've got that strong an English accent, you shouldn't try to put another one on. You know it's just the little things that bug me. Nit-picking. But I loved the blood-bath at the end. It's so rare in films these days to have shocking, slightly humorous amounts of gratituitous violence. Well done Marty. Question though: in the scene where Mr. Damon has left the interview room and talks about pulling strings or something with that other cop, there's a poster of an asian woman behind him with like 'Liza did it' or something written underneath. Is that a reference to Infernal Affairs or something? Haven't seen it so I dunno.

Well, yeah, I suppose my main concern is what Mr Banshee suggested. Permits. You need to have licensed explosives experts and stuff. And what am I going for? A horribly bloody and nasty death. But the way I look at is if you do with a certain swagger, it can be quite dramatic. I mean, having a fat hose gushing blood is pretty good for certain things but if you want a front-on look to someone with an unbloodied shirt and then have a sudden bullethole appear, it's slightly lacking. But I agree with the blood recipes, the ones with coffee in particular. They're good stuff. And your film is quality by the way.

What do you guys use for squibs? I saw a site to make a system using a hose and a fertiliser gun. But I was looking for a bit of a better one than a spray. Obviously I'm not knocking the idea of having blood spraying everywhere but I guess I'm looking for more of an explosion. Any ideas that don't involve any real gunpowder squibs?

Are you single? Seriously. That's actually so great. It may sound lame but this film, and not knowing what it was called, has plagued me for years. And now I finally know what it is. It's actually been one of my life goals. Anybody can kill me now if they like. I'll die happy. I've got a gun and everything.

Since everyone's talking about subliminal messaging in Disney films, here's some evidence of subliminal laziness. Except some russian guys, seemed to have picked up on it.

In The Devil and Max Devlin, he comes back to life a few times. In my film, this guy stays dead. Thanks for trying though.

And that person's me. Hi, everyone. I've had a look round the site and it's good stuff and everyone seems real helpful. Hope some of that good nature'll go my way.
Anyway, i need some help finding this film i saw once on either TCM or Hallmark Channel. It was about a guy who died and went to purgatory. (that's the mid point before heaven and hell right?) Anyway, this guy (looks jewish and has an afro) is getting judged by a council and during this trial has to watch moments from his life on television screens. During his judgement, he meets a woman, who may or may not go by the name of Catherine, and grows fond of her. Needless to say, they end up gettin split up when he gets judged for hell and she for heaven. (Or vice versa). They then depart on trains/trams/trolleys for their final destinations (naturally) and then he jumps trains at the end because he wants to be with her. I don't suppose it's because heaven sounds a lot sweeter than hell. My recollection of this film may be not up to code but the basic elements of the story are right. I had it on half-good authority that it was called Heaven Can Wait but i distinctly remember there not being a guy come back to life as a millionaire. Also the 1943/34 version sounds pretty good but anything from the war isnt going to feature a man in either colour (maybe) or 70's/80's gear which im fairly sure everyone was wearing. I would be very grateful to anyone who either knows this film or could locate the name of it, and they told me.It's plagued me for quite a while now. Apologies if you don't understand my English colloquialisms. Thank you. |
