    Movies that everyone loves that you cannot get the love for

    No, you can get it and just not get that much enjoyment out of watching Christian Bale clench his jaw (indicating INTENSE emotions striving to BREAK FREE!), then a bunch of incredibly cheesy fight scenes. Neither the plot of the Matrix or Equilibrium is especially impressive or new to anyone who's read more than 2 sci-fi books, not that I'm saying that's a particularly awful thing. And anyone who's used Prozac will tell you it doesn't eliminate emotion. That's retarded. It corrects a chemical imbalance in your brain, and helps restore you to how you used to be.

    Hey Leena.

    This is true. Tomato is too strong, and kills the clam's flavor. If it counts, I may have to put gumbo up there with clam chowder. Has to be made with okra, though. Fuck that roux shit.

    Movies that everyone loves that you cannot get the love for

    Zombie 2 has the single most outsanding "Run bitch, run!" scene in it. This old, decrepit zombie crawls slowly out of the ground, and she just screams, and screams, and screams for like literally HALF A MINUTE. I mean, run, crawl do something! She just sits there until it s-l-o-w-l-y crawls up to her and squishes her head. Zombie 2 does have ZOMBIE VS. SHARK, but it's really pretty terrible. Gates of hell is so much better, and way gorier to boot. The Crow, i just LURVED when it first came out, I think I was about 15. It had a great soundtrack, and he was badass looking, and it's so tragic and creepy and ironic that Brandon Lee died while making it. I saw it again when I was maybe 20, and just had to laugh at myself. It's really a pretty corny, cheesy movie. Brandon Lee did well, but scenes like him playing his guitar on the top of the building in the middle of the night? Just too 'Ann Rice' and teenage angst to not be unintentional comedy. EDIT: I LOVED the 40-yo virgin. I think it's the funniest movie I've seen in ages. I may have already been biased, since Catherine Keener is my favorite actress, and I think Steve Carrell, and the guy from Freaks & Geeks are very funny. One thing, though. Don't watch the unrated version. It's just a bunch of scenes that they decided wisely to cut. I don't think they added anything at all to an already somewhat overlong movie. I think last year was a generally shitty year for movies, though. I wasn't impressed by many of the critically hailed movies, though I'm watching GN&GL tonight, and I haven't seen Brokeback yet. (everyone I know who's seen it has liked it, though. One friend said it was the most visually beautiful movie he'd ever seen, though he had to look away during the pup tent scene, heh.)

    Equilibrium was fucking terrible, and I like Bale. Scarface is a good one. I can't see any reason why this is more than a passable gangster movie. Caddyshack. I love Bill Murray, but why this is seen as some sort of high point of 80's sex comedies? Didn't make me laugh once. Ringu: One incredible scene. OK, it was done MUCH better than the American remake, but ONE incredible scene does not a movie make.

    5 famous people who you would love to punch

    I'm just waiting for the first person to say Stephen Hawking. Or Helen Keller if they're fucking daft. EDIT: can I consolidate a dry-docking for Fred Phelps out of my Toby Keith punches? Honestly, I want to rip Fred Phelps's jaw off, play around with his blood, and orgasm right when I'm stabbing him in his chest. I know, being face to face with him, He's the one person I would sock in the fucking face actually. I hate that man, and I would try to savagely beat him.

    Kingdom Hearts II

    I just want to say that the Did anyone use reflect or magnet during the game, if so, why? They seem totally superfluous, maybe I'm missing something.

    Hornets vs Spruce Bugs

    Those bugs are pathetic. Now a big cockroach or a large spider? That'll turn me into a quivering wreck. Well, not really, only if they get into my home. It's one of the primary reasons I like ths primarily cold climate here. Down in N.O, there were fucking roaches (and fire ants) like CRAZY. ONCE, and roach got into my dorm room, and I seriously lost my shit. I HATE those fucking things, they terrify me. Thank God I've never lived where camel spiders are native. I would've never slept. I guess I'll vote for a spruce bug, because it's big, and it sucks blood, right? Hornets are pretty benign, though they fucking love picnic food. They'll only sting you if you fucki with 'em.

    Kingdom Hearts II

    That's impressive. I can't even beat the fate tournament at level 60. Well I probably can, and will (need it for that ultima weapon for before I think of fucking with Sephiroth), but it's fucking frustrating. Thundaga is your best friend in that tournament. The last boss was a bit disappointing. Some incredible visual effects for sure, but I liked the giant boss of KH1 quite a bit more. Plus he was sort of a puss. Nothing compared to Xaldin. Shit, the quasi gummi ship battle was the closest I came to dying, and that's just because I was careless and impatient. Still liked the game. However, by the last two Disney worlds, I was skipping all the cutscenes.

    Toby Keith, five times. How could anyone punch a face like that?

    Kingdom Hearts II

    I mean there's bonus RPG bosses like some of the weapons in the FF series that require an insane amount of levelling (the level 9999 bosses of Disgaia come to mind...) to beat, but it's mostly a slog to get strong enough. Then there's bosses in some actions games, Devil May Cry I & III comes to mind, where you just have to be dexterous and quick. In KH1, FIRST you had to level up very high (totally not an option, he has an attack that straight out kills you and never misses if you don't have Once Again), THEN you had to be really good on dodging and quickly picking up on his attack cues. Apparently even when you're pretty much maxed, know exactly what to do, and have become competent at doing it, it's a race against time as you try to beat him before your elixirs run out.

    Kingdom Hearts II

    Saying is easier this time around isn't really saying much, seeing as he might be the hardest boss EVER in the original, and yes, I mean out of any game I'VE ever played at least. I'm something like level 55 and he kicks my ass in literally max 10 seconds, well before his badass music can even kick in. He apparently has FIFTEEN life bars in KH2. Jaysis.

    He derails every thread he touches. He's an obvious troll, and probably PRIME or fishyswa. (Makes outrageous claim, starts completely circular argument, slowly adding flamebait) Ban him.

    Versus

    It kicks fucking ass. Notice that rat boy tumbles into every scene. 'I'm a feminist.' They're making a sequel.

    Kingdom Hearts II

    Just wanted to say, Cloud and Leon back-to-back (I think it's on the back cover, so no spoilers) made me mark out like a little boy. A litte less than Being SUCH the consumate badass.

    Kingdom Hearts II

    Still pisses me off a bit, it's like people calling Hucklberry Finn racist, when it's one of the most anti-racist books ever. Song of the South is a wonderful movie. I was being sarcastic about it ever being incorporated into KH, tho. Question about the game: sometimes when I want to go into valor drive, Sora turns into a Heartless form. It's badass against tons of enemies, but it ain't near as good as valor driver against bosses. Is this just random?

    Don't forget song of the south! EDIT: Xaldin is a fucking ASSHOLE.

    Kingdom Hearts II

    I just want to say I'm enjoying this game quite a bit. The main plot is very intriguing. This game has tons od=f gameplay after the fucking arduous opening. One thing: BTW. Chain of Memoris is a decent game, but it's fucking HARD. I like that the platforming elements are almost eliminated. I like some platforming (God of War is boss) but Sora jumped like a retard last time around, I don't miss it.

    Empire's 50 greatest Indie films...

    I'm sorry, Bad Taste is only a mediocre movie, but it's pretty much uninventive. It's like an episode of Miami Vice with a puke-eatting scene. I know this statement seems ridiculous, but there's a boring-ass shootout that takes half of the movie! Evil Dead is SO much better. So is Braindead. I LOVE Braindead. Bad Taste? Eh. I'll admit to having a giant erection for Donnie Darko, but come on. Also: Bad Leiutenant is not a very good movie. Fucked up? Yes. But not good. El Mariachi should kill a lot of these, for being a really good film on zero budget.

    THIEF

    Well, after the tiniest bit of research, he DID want to eschew a heavy work schedule to be with his kids, which is awesome. and a little egg on my face. I still think he could have been one of the biggest movie stars in America if he had gone for it. But I'm sure he does well, and he has absolutely nothing to prove. One of Poeple's 50 sexiest men and a Shakesperian actor? Guy's a stud. I like the show quite a bit, BTW.

    If that's the case, that's cool, but I doubt it.
