    The 2008 MTV Movie Award Nominees

    I remember back in the day, it was considered practically forbidden to admit you liked "Scream" to other horror fans. I wonder if it still is.

    Pictures I Like

    Best series of pictures ever? Possibly.

    Pundits you love/hate

    http://stuffwhitepeoplelike.com/2008/04/30/97-scarves/ I love that site.
  7. All of Grindhouse, both Hostel, The Devil's Rejects, both Hills Have Eyes, Sin City, and the entire Saw series all managed to get R ratings. Why not this one? I highly doubt they'll get an R rating. I don't know why, but I just do.
  8. First off, there is a remake of "The Wizard of Gore" coming out. I actually have interest in it, as Crispin Glover is playing Montag the Magnificent (say what you will about the remake, but you gotta admit, that's a great casting.) Second of all, "I Spit on You Grave" is a definative love it or hate it movie. We all know Ebert's famous review, and it's one of the few horror/exploitation movies from the 70's that still gets plenty of controversy. Thing is, over time, it's found it's defenders, and not just horror fans. Some feminists, film critics, and film historians today declare it as a good movie. Like it or not, it's rightfully considered a cult classic. Granted, there are better rape/revenge movies ("Last House on the Left", "Thriller: A Cruel Picture"), but ISOYG is the most controversial. The thing to me is, not only how are they going to remake ISOYG, but how are they going to do an R- rated remake? It's impossible to do an R-rated version of that movie, especially today. Also luke-o, you are from England. Is that movie still cut, or have they finally released the uncut version. Just wondering, since I always found the whole "Video Nasties" thing from back in the day fascinating.

    Campaign 2008

    Fair enough, given that she was almost eleven centuries ago. Oh come on! That doesn't count anymore! I'm going to have to consult the judges on this one: Does this still count? Fuck you Magic 8-Ball. It never gives the "good answer"! Eh, Magic 8-Balls suck anyway.

    Venture Bros. Season 3

    "Joseph and his Amazing Technicolor Nightmare Coat" had me laughing for 40 seconds. Also, "Midgitlers."

    Southland Tales

    I hated this fucking movie. It was the most annoying, bloated, pretentious attempt at "satire" I've seen in a very long time and made me want to hurt Richard Kelly. I mean come on Justin Timberlake lipsynching The Killers Horrible attempts at symbolism Kevin Smith as a Iraq War vet Will Sasso The "Anarchists" sub plot (with Cheri O'Teri!) The horrible attempts at humor (though "Teen Horniness is not a Crime" amuses me) Way too many plots that I largely couldn't get into (God knows I tried) The biggest problem I had with the movie, is that I felt like it was trying to say something (well, several things), but it couldn't. The story is way too muddled, and it tries so hard to be different that it just ended up feeling more forced and manufactured than anything. It's like he wanted to do some kind of David Lynch meets Fellini, but it all fails. At least the acting was good for the most part.

    That's it? If anything, the ad should be taken of the air for being a shitty scarf I see hipsters wear.

    Comments which don't warrant a thread.

    "1979" is one of the best songs of the 90's.

    No. I hate clean up duty.

    New to my Ignore list: Marney

    I should have done this earlier, but now that she's back, it's the only logical thing to do.
  21. The next remake ahead: I Spit on Your Grave. The studio wants it to get a theatrical release and an R rating. To that, I say-good luck there buddy.

    Campaign 2008

    That is a great mental image though. Now Hillary needs says "I don't know." The speech Hillary did tonight was the biggest load of sore loser bullshit I've heard in ages. This campaign has sucessfully ruined much of Bill's credibility, divided the Democratic party, created legions of screeching harpies, contained blatant race baiting-the list goes on. Just go away bitch.

    I really don't want to be in this anymore. It's losing all it's fun now.

    What the fuck have I created?

    Nearly three years ago, I created this thread. It wasn't supposed to become as big as it currently is. I thought "Hey, this will end in a few weeks. Everyone will forget it exists, like all my other threads." Instead, it may be the biggest thread in the CE folder. You'd think I'd be happy to be the creator of such a popular thread. Well, I'm not. Why? Because to be honest, I think it's a horrible thread. I know, I know, I'm just bitching. Looking back, I probably should have seen this coming. That still doesn't excuse me or the thread though, and when this election and campaign and whatnot is finally over, the thread needs to be moved into classics. Why? Because of these reasons: Marvin-God, I know he's annoying, but he may have brought it to new levels here, derailing the thread and trolling by constantly kissing the already crusty ass of Glenn Beck, and being horrible. Everyone hates him, and his antics in this thread may already be the stuff of TSM legend. It's practically made for TSM classics. Marney-Lady, I doubt you are reading this. That out of the way, the reason I can't stand you has nothing to do with your political views, and has everything to do with: blatant troll like responses such as "Watch me care" which read like they could have come from an 14 year old, "B.O. Hussein" and calling him "Your Mullatto saviour", among other racist responses-it all has to do with you and your attitude, which consists of acting like an internet tough guy, then getting upset when people call you out on that. Superjerk, NoCalMike, etc-Not suprising, they are pretty much just repeating the same talking points over and over again. Nothing new, but it's annoying. Czech: Hillary fan boy-I like ya Czech, I really do. That out of the way, voting for Hillary just to spite Obama is really immature. Cheesalaisgood: Ron Paul Cheerleader-Like you are suprised. He also bought into some conspiracy loving documentary. I am fully convinced he's a truther. Narcoleptic Jumper: Ron Paul Cheerleader and Truther-I need not say more. I rest my case. Kotz came back briefly today, and he's right: The Campaign '08 thread is terrible, and needs to be put to an end. Just do it when it's all over, and put it in the classics folder where it belongs
