Be Excellent To Each Other

PEOPLE AT WORK HAVE BEEN LYING TO ME!

Watched Ghost Rider on telly last night. I had low expectations of it (anything with Nicolas Cage in has this effect) but I quite enjoyed it, despite the bad guys being rather crap.

"Why hello there receding-haired pilgrim, I'm Sam Elliot, the first Ghost Rider. I'll be riding along with you for this, yur final encounter with that there devil dude."

*Clippity Clop Clippity Clop*

(Few hundred yards later)

"That was a right purdy ride. I'm off now, got meself a stew going..."

A ludicrously stupid film. Enjoyed Sam Elliot as usual though.

Miracle on 34th Street; still great.

Paranormal Activity.

It was good, but i didn't found to be all that scary. And it was just me, or was the actress breasts and tights really distracting? (in a good way)

Yes

He wasn't supposed to tell anyone about it

Films I did watching of over the weekend -

Predator 2 - Better than the first one, yes. I wonder if the crazy future space year of 1997 will really be like that? Oh.

Home Alone - Haven't seen in years, but it's actually rather good.

Miss Congeniality - Wasn't expecting much, but it was better than it has any right to be, mainly due to lovely performances by Michael Caine and William Shatner.

National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation - Haven't seen this before, but I laughed a lot. My in-laws are the Griswolds.

Gremlins - Fucking awesome, obviously.

Alien³. Much better than I thought it was. Really quite recommended.

I watched Blood: The Last Vampire. The recent live action one, not the manga. Don't watch this, it's rubbish.

One of my guilty pleasures, this film. As you say it's far far better than it possible should be.

Zodiac was disappointing. can't elaborate. hands cold, no heating

Last night I watched Spun. I saw it back when it came out in 2002 but figured I would watch it again due to Brittany's death.

Fantastic movie

/narrows eyes

But he's right, it is better. Watch them both again - neither of them are gilt edged classics if I'm honest, but 2 is marginally better than 1.

Pah Mr Wrongo, the original had the gayest scene in it ever, the 'The CIA got you pushing too many pencils' scene...this obviously makes it 3.5 bannanas better.

Danny Glover > Arnie

If I'm entirely honest, I also marginally prefer Predator 2 to 1. That said, "GET TO ZE CHOPPER!" has become a common phrase around my household.

I'm only hoping that phrase came from Predator now, or else I'm going to look mighty stupid, aren't I?

When I lived with MyFinger, Meaty, and other people you don't know we would watch either Predator or Die Hard approximately five times a week because of the Sky Predator And Die Hard Movie Channel. Both are very quotable movies. "I ain't got time to bleed" was one of our favourites.

That is, roughly, one of my mate's gamertags.

If it bleeds, we can kill it.

FTFY

That was from 'Carrie', I believe.

'The Ovulator'

WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR? KILL ME! DO IT! DO IT NOW!

Commando is the most quotable film ever, reckon.

"What happened to Sally?"
"I let him go."

Maybe it's just fucking Arnie. Arnie is the most quotable person ever.
"Who is your daddy and what does he do?"

But Carl Weathers > Danny Glover. So, you know.

Carl Weathers does make lovely stews.

Also, he rivals LewieP for money saving tips.

I'd take Pred2 over Pred1. I've always maintained that Predator 2 is a great film.

But then I watched Saw 6 this weekend and loved it.

Predator 2 is fucking awesome.

I don't believe anything with Sandra Bullock can be good.

Egg and Chips?

But she's got a great name! Especially if you pronounce it all Yorkshire with an exclamation mark at the end, like.

Demolition Man is superacebest.

Also that other film she was in.

Speed?

Which is what Jesse named his autobiography.

I think I pretty much love every Sandra Bullock film ever. Oddly.

It is indeed. "Why don't they just call him Girl George?".

And the camp villain, Bennett, should have won an oscar for services to comedy.

Also, worryingly prescient in its depictions of on-the-spot fines, anti-social behaviour measures, Schwarznegger entering politics, and, er, the shells.

I tried to watch it the other day, and now it just smacks of a right wing wet dream nightmare.

Arnold's most quotetastic film is Pumping Iron. It's complete genius.

Finally got around to watching Sweeney Todd last night. Helena Bonham Carter is quite nice, isn't she.

yes... if you like squashed things.

Aslo: Aaliyah!

Is that Mandarin Grim...?

Didn't Aaliyah! die?

I've no idea what you're both on about. Were you looking at her face or something?

Sometimes she's mildly strangely attractive but most of the time she looks like a Kestrel Super Bus Station draught excluder.

Back to Commando:
"You steal my car, you rip the seat out, you kidnap me, you ask me to help you find your daughter which I very kindly do, and then you get me involved in a shoot out where people are dying and there's blood spurting all over the place, and then I watch you rip a phone booth out of a wall, swing from the ceiling like Tarzan, and then there's a cop that's going to shoot you and I save you and they start chasing me. Are you going to tell me what's going on or what?"
"No."

"i'm not going to shoot you in between the eyes! I'm gonna shoot you in between the balls!"

Nonsensical for the win!
