Comments that which don't warrant a thread

Recommended Posts

The digital cable channel Soapnet plays 2 hours of The OC every weekday, from 3-5. It's a damn good show, with great writing and enough to cater to a pretty broad demographic, which I guess explains its success (for the first season or two, at least).

 

You'll change your tune once season 3 rolls around. Also, on the AG front, indy worker Matt "M-Dogg 20" Cross tried out for AG but didn't make it because he was either injured or was told by NBC that he was "too short".

But it'll be back to normal when season 4 starts.

But the reason I stopped in here, I was sick yesterday and just had the slew of Judge Shows on that FOX shows in the mid-afternoon and Chyna was on Christine's Court suing over some Tea Cup Chihuahuas she paid for but never received, the defense was brilliant. "When we found out that it was a wrestler who wanted them we wanted more money." That was the defense, then the lady complained that Chyna got preferential treatment, no, she paid you the price you where asking for the dogs, dogs which she didn't get. Classic.

I'm guessing Chyna won?

I rented Roman Polanski's Pirates on VHS. It's the first time I've rented a VHS in two years (Interestingly enough, the last time was at the same independent video store, it was a compilation of short films from early episodes of SNL). The movie isn't on DVD and I couldn't resist the urge to see what is, according to Roger Ebert, the worst pirate movie ever made.

 

 

The video store also had another notably bad movie not on DVD, the Run DMC movie, Tougher Than Leather (With Rick Rubin as the villain!).

I've been in a real sci-fi kinda mood recently, but I'm mainly after bad sci-fi movies.

 

Resident Evil Apocalypse and Extinction, Alien Vs. Predator, Ultraviolet, Moonraker, Die Another Day, Dinocroc, and any Sci-Fi original movie.

Now thats the kind of stuff I want. I'd watch Sci-Fi all day long if I had the channel.

She did. Got a Grand back for the two dogs she'd paid for.

I recenty started watching Life on Mars, and I don't know why I didn't before. It and Dexter are my two favourite series from the last 2 years.

 

I'm starting to prefer the hour long format.

I watched "The Ten" the other night.

 

I was entertained. Not great, not horrible, but I got to tell yah, Wynona Ryder did a great fucking job in the "thou shall not steal" part.

Terry Crews might just be my favourite actor at the moment. I had his rendition of "A thousand miles" by Vanessa Carlton in my head all day today, and thus a big shit eating grin on my face to go along with it. Seriously, can anyone in Hollywood pop it and lock it like Crews? Dude tends to steal every movie he is in. Cheeseburger Eddie, Prez. Camacho.

 

"What the... How did you know?" "Tupac, TUPAC!"

I took one of my lady friends to see Enchanted, and ended up liking it more than I had any right to. I'm known to love fantasy and occasionally chick flicks, but I think I liked it more than the girl did. DVD for sure.

 

I don't think anyone else would be as impressed, my taste in such genres tend to be unshared by straight men, but know this: It is an absolutely ideal movie to take a girl to.

I wanted to see it but never did. If its been like two weeks since the movie came out, I won't watch it till it comes out on DVD. I haven't heard a bad review on it.

I like how on The Colbert Report, Stephen is now just reading the paper and making comments about the news and has been doing two interviews instead of a scripted comedy piece during the second segment (except last night had a funny segment of him at the Smithsonian).

K-Mart showed the fan trailer "Grayson" after a trailer for Dark Knight, Iron Man and Project Cloverfield.

Strangely enough, I was more pumped up by the Grayson trailer.

 

That's a damn good fan trailer.

Try the Carnosaur series. Should be right up your alley.

The first Carnosaur movie is one of my favorite so bad it's good movies ever. It's regular viewing for me.

I rented Freaky Friday (The Lohan/Lee Curtis one) and enjoyed it more than I should have.

The first hour was absolute shit. I got excited when he was going back in to town to take care of business but that was about 1/10 of the potential for awesomeness it had.

 

I chuckled a few times, but honestly, what's so good about it?

I really have a hard time explaining why something's funny to someone who didn't think it was funny (in fact, it's downright impossible) but I just thought they really aped Michael Bay's style well.

 

Have you seen Shaun of The Dead?

It was fuckin' funny man, I don't know. If you didn't think it was, I honestly don't know what to tell you.

 

(I do agree that the return to town had more potential than was utilized)
