  1. I'm sorry but that movie was garbage.
  2. Wasn't feeling that one at all. So except for her dad, every male in town is a rapist or pervert of some sort? Talk about a straw cock argument. That's not feminism, that's some middle-aged guy screenwriter trying to act like he's feminist. I agree. If it were written by a true feminist, the dad would've been a rapist pervert as well.
  3. Whenever I watch it I really like it, but I can't seem to get in the habit of watching it regularly.
  4. I thought I did send a PM. I'd look at my sent messages to double check, but I cleaned them out earlier.
  5. My turn comes after yours this round, it's not my responsibility to PM you, no need to be a douche about it. A Face in the Crowd (1957) An overlooked gem. The same writer/director pair from On the Waterfront with another great cast highlighted by the best performance of a really good actor, in this case Andy Griffith. This MIGHT have been able to wait, but I know a few others on this board like the movie as well, so I thougt I better get it while it's open.
  6. Part of the commercials remind me of the episode of South Park where everybody's running from Global Warming.
  7. Chris Benoit vs. Great Sasuke J-Cup '94 Finals The best match from one of the best tournaments in wrestling.
  8. Well, since it didn't get scooped up during the ladder match series of drafts, I guess I'll get it now. My favorite TNA match still available: Jerry Lynn vs. Low-Ki vs. AJ Styles Three-Way Ladder Match 8/28/2002 When these three and the X-division undercard were getting (NWA)TNA noticed, it was still in the weekly PPV phase and I pretty much wouldn't have anything to do with it. But this was the first show I ordered. Based on that show, I would've ordered every week if not for the lack of money. But at the very least I got this one great match.
  9. You took that Velvet Underground album from me and I've been mad at you ever since.
  10. Any second now the New Pornographers are gonna pop out of that hair.
  11. I'm torn on Slipknot. I mostly liked them in my angsty teen years and kind of grew out of them. But I can't just up and call them a shit band like I can with Linkin Park. Whoever writes the songs can write catchy and anthemic hooks well enough, the lead singer is competent enough, most of the individual aspects of the band aren't bad. But anything good about the band is done a lot better elsewhere. Also, I like the new Coldplay song. It's better than the stuff U2 has been putting out as of late.
  12. Oh, my turn. Now, let's see if I can remember what I was going to pick next... "Unplugged in New York" by Nirvana Good thing live albums are alright to pick. I've never claimed to be a big Nirvana fan, but I always thought this was a hell of an album. It also plays into my bias towards acoustic arrangements.
  13. Yojimbo My favorite movie from one of my favorite directors. Might not be as thoughtful a movie as Rashomon or as visually expanisive as Ran, but Toshiro Mifune knocks it out of the park. Then follows it out of the park and keeps hitting it.
  14. Is he still billed from St. Louis or are they saying one way or the other? Isn't Matt Sydal his real name? Can't trademark and own that... I'm not sure if Sydal is his real last name or not. I know back when he first started in GCW he just went simply by 'Matt' and then Sydal got thrown on there sometime over the years Hah. I forgot about that. I miss GCW.
  15. -Google Image hates my list- The Great Sasuke, Gran Hamada, and Masato Yakushiji vs. TAKA Michinoku, Terry Boy, and Dick Togo ECW Barely Legal 4/13/97 Taking the spot that was going to go to the Supercard of Honor six-man, I guess I'll pick the predecessor to that match, the Michinoku Pro Barely Legal six-man match.
  16. I don't care what his/her gender is, I'll call someone what they want to be called. But, yeah, it's more or less a short-haired broad with facial hair getting pregnant.
  17. -No Pic Available- Cruiserweight Battle Royale/Chris Jericho vs. Dean Malinko Slamboree '98 5/17/1998 The highlight of the entire Cruiserweight division in WCW. Jericho going to town on them in the battle royale announcements, the better-than-average battle royale, the sheer "what the fuck?" moment of Cyclope winning, the fucking unmasking, it was pulled off fantastically all the way through.
  18. Their JCW videos (not where they're trying to be a real wrestling promotion. The joke ones) > their music.
  19. I gave up on that hospital staff when they hooked up a fifty year old corpse to a heart monitor. And yeah, the little girl ghosts in J-horror bug me, too. I think it was only done well in Dark Water and Ringu. But no J-horror can touch Kaïro anyways, so w/e.
  20. If I'm eating something else along with it, I will go to town on some Angel Food cake. On its own it's just okay. But if it's a piece of angel food cake and some strawberries, or a cinnamon bun, then it's good times.
  21. Zombi 2 is good stuff, The Beyond is shit.
  22. In theory those two scenes could have been disturbing, but the acid scene was ruined by the acid apparently falling by its self in what is either another "the evil apparently controls everything except what moves the plot along" issue or just a hilariously contrived gore set piece, and the spider scene- what I thought was the worst offender of bad death scenes in the movie- was just completely out of nowhere and went on way too long. If the omnipotent evil can make animals (made out of pipe cleaners) appear out of nowhere, then why can't it just take over the world like that? It could've just sent an army of fuzzy wire-skeleton spiders to eat melty latex off everybody's faces and then it would've won within the first half hour. That scene DID remind me of a scene in Spider Baby, though, and any giallo that can somehow remind me of Spider Baby can't be ALL bad.
  23. I probably won't be watching either movie. And I won't even bash Fulci. I think Zombi 2 was a good movie. The Beyond is a muddled heap of idiot characters, awful dialogue, incomprehensible plot developments and bad special effects shown in close-up that go on forever. There's no ground rules for the omnipotent evil's power which just lets the writers do whatever they feel like. It would allow for neat self-contained moments of horror if any of them were executed well at all, but they all suck.
  24. Then call me David Caruso because I thought it was a shitty movie and was unmoved throughout. Scratch that. The film moves me to anger with its awfulness.
