    Grindhouse

    What the fuck kind of argument is this? "That movie sucked!" "It was supposed to!" You're both retarded. Nobody here is a fan of grindhouse movies. Calling Death Proof an homage to grindhouse movies is like calling Debbie Does Dallas: The Next Generation an homage to Debbie Does Dallas (now there's a grindhouse movie) Tarantino made an inside joke for nobody. It sucked. It lost a lot of money. The end.

    Comments which don't warrant a thread.

    I'll listen to that, but I don't really like the idea of genre-crossing covers, they're often cheap and corny. Some exceptions: Ben Folds' "Bitches Ain't Shit" cover... it's so absurd it's almost Weird Al-esque... Uncle Tupelo's version of "I Wanna Be Your Dog". Uncle Tupelo have enough integrity to pull shit like that. Plus I think this was originally recorded as just them screwing around, only to be released years later.

    Yep, Death Proof is fucking awful. The reason why has been noted. But this was an interesting quote: I think I'd rather watch I Spit On Your Grave 5 times in row than... just about anything.

    Brad Renfro died

    I think it's funny as hell, personally. I even have the Teenage Caveman action figure!

    Ironically it's not a particularly difficult problem.

    Well, I mean the plan to be reborn and kill Harry. If he had followed that up with what I described in the last paragraph there, I would have liked it. Oh well.

    Zoo Stories

    That I'll agree with. Most domestic animals, while they may eat shit, lack the opposable digits to fling it.

    I don't understand the big deal with animals fucking. Animals fuck, it's what they do, like that Bloodhound Gang song. Any kid with a dog knows that.

    There Will Be Blood

    I thought Willem Dafoe was pretty good in AP. But hey, that's Willem fucking Dafoe. In an uncharacteristically understated performance, too.

    Harry Potter Movies

    Ha ha. It is pretty silly. But y'know, there's usually a few absurdities here and there. I just enjoy the structure of the tournament. I like the Quidditch World Cup. I like Krum, and Fleur. Hermione is finally acknowledged as attractive. There's a lot of book 4 I like. I've read some explanations as to the portkey thing before. I can't really remember if any of them made sense. Likely a lot of it was Voldemort suffering from Bond villain syndrome, ie, the need to be excessively theatrical (and he does display that trait often). There's tons of it on the HP Lexicon site. Actually, come to think of it, if the plan had succeeded, and Voldemort had returned via the portkey to Hogwarts, with Harry's corpse, and appeared before the assemblage of three schools, slaughtering them all and probably Dumbledore sheerly by taking him off guard... bearing in mind that everyone thinks you've been dead for 13 years... that is quite the masterstroke.

    Mine: Even better when I had long hair, but there's no pictures of that version, unfortunately.

    ^ I know him better than I used to. Hey, I grew that for a while. Quite well. Also, no, I don't have any nieces or nephews, but I probably will. I'm the oldest, there's plenty of time for them to breed.

    Zoo Stories

    As little of a fuck as I give about almost anything, you may be surprised to hear that I hold something of a concern for zoo's treatment of animals. Not an outright moral objection, like I have to the circus, but a concern. I prefer more of a wildlife preserve type environment. San Diego had a pretty kick ass zoo. I've spent the day there almost ten times and still haven't seen it all. LA is a decent smaller zoo. I also like how the old zoo there was just abandoned and you can go screw around in the cages and what not. Considering my concern for the treatment of animals, I was pretty stoked when those tigers killed those guys at the SF zoo. I've actually never been there. Friend of mine takes her little brothers there every week. They would have been there the day the tigers escaped if not for the holiday.

    Cloverfield

    This is an interesting question, because the hype was almost a feint. The hype was all monster, and it really wasn't the monster's movie. It's very much about the friends from the party, set against the back drop of a huge fuck off monster. How do you sell that? Well, you could raise a shitload of hype over the monster, pack the theater on that basis, and then show them your movie which is quite good on it's own terms. Seems to have worked: huge opening, positive reaction. I'm going again with two friends tomorrow, and one of them saw it already too. Genius!

    I've always described that book as "all politics" which is not really a knock on it. It's probably my second favorite of the books. My rank is basically: 4 5 3 7 6 2 1 And, as far as sheer, unbridled hated, Umbridge is one of the better villains to come along in quite some time.

    Your ultimate pizza

    Yes, texture is also the reason I can't eat fresh tomatoes. Still, mashed potatoes is an odd exception for a guy who claims to eat everything. Course, I suppose a tomato is too.

    So Hotbutter Spoontoaster is gone...

    Hey wait a minute, why this unrequited slam on Yuna? Leena I can understand both hate and love for, but Yuna never did anything to anyone. She's pretty fucking weird, I'll admit... but I don't think it's in a bad way. I don't know what she looks like, but I think somebody told me once she was overweight. Not really a big deal. She talks like an anime character. Actually, Leena, Yuna and I all three love cats. That's the connection. KKK and I should be cybering any day, then.

    Nobody's really saying she's anything but that. You want that kind of talk, go to the pit.
