Suicide Squad

I am watching Suicide Squad again. It got panned by a lot of people but I just don't see what their problem is. Maybe they expect an Oscar style movie?

The action is great. The graphics are great. The characters are great. The story is good. The acting is from ok to great. What isn't to like?

Jared Leto should have had more of a role! Fuck you. He was fantastic in the movie but the focus is supposed to be the Squad and not The Joker.

WTF is up with Enchantress and the dancing? Who the fuck really cares? Does it make the movie suck? No.  While it is kind of stupid it doesn't detract that much from the movie.

Ok, I do agree, Captain Boomerang and the pink unicorn was pretty fucked up but it does have some comedic value.

Will Smith is FANTASTIC as Deadshot.

Margot Robbie is an awesome Harley Quinn....

... and ...

Joker should not have been the focus of the 1st Suicide Squad  movies. A big Fuck You to all the whiners that say that. He should be the main villain in the next one. :)  I feel like they have played all of us. Yes, he was a main focus in this one but god damn he would be a great main focus in the next one. :)



Jack Reacher: Never Go Back

I am watching it as I type. Same problem I had with the 1st Jack Reacher movie, Tom Cruise isn't 6'6+ and built like a brick shit house. But he still does a good job.

I have to go back and reread the book. I am not saying the movie deviated a lot from it. I just don't remember because it has been so long.

The movie has been damn good so far.

From what I recall it deviates from the book ... but ... it is good. :)

"Never underestimate the charm of a seedy motel." Bwahahahaha

It would be more believable if he was a 6'6" brick shit house ... but ... it
is believable. :)

Yeah ... believable is the right word. Cruise really pulls it off. Damn I hate to say that but he does.

I sort of saw the ending coming but didn't. Well played!!!

Choke the mother fucker out!!!

This movie isn't even over and I want to see the next one.

Ok. I figured that would show up ... but didn't expect it when it did. Well played! :)

Holy shit! Cruise does a great Reacher. :)

It makes the books mean a whole lot more. Which means reread. And it is great on its own. :)

I don't say this a lot but ... watch this movie!!!

No he isn't relieved. He was hoping. DAMN!

Great ending!

and I am ho,lding back so many creepy scientology jokes right now!!!!

Good movie ... so many ... good movie ... damn.

Yes, he does. DAMN!

Inception

Tonight I am watching Inception based on the reccomendation of a co-worker. We were talking about waking dreams and things like that and he said I should watch this. So I am.

Damn. Strike one. Leonardo DiCaprio is in the movie. Not a big fan of his.

Interesting concept/premise. Good execution. so far.

I like how they got him out of the dream. :)

A dream within a dream? They should be playing The Alan Parsons Project. :)

Heh ... snitches get stitches!

Ok, the concept of inception is interesting.

Can't ... walk ... away. Even with no guarantee.

Ariadne? Interesting name if you know anything about Greek mythology.

26 minutes in I am wondering if he is still in a dream state or not. It affects how you see the movie.

And she is dreaming. Cool.

I am liking it so far. Even if Leo DeCraprio is in it.

Damn this really is interesting. She can mess with my physics any day. :)

So, inception is possible just bloody difficult.

Ok, this is a bizarre chase sequence. He must be dreaming.

Once again. A dream within a dream. Three levels this time.

Still interesting.

"They come to be woken up. The dream has become their reality."

I am liking it so far at the 53 minute mark.

"I bought the airline." Hahahahaha!!!!!

I am still thinking that this might be the 4th or 5th level of a dream. Damn. I like this. :)

The dream was hijacked? Sweet!

This movie is both suspending my disbelief and holding my interest. Watch it!

Holy shit!

Limbo. Damn.

I still think he is working Saito.

A dream within a dream.

"It is like trying to remember a dream after you have woken up."

0k fight! Boo Yah!!!!!!!

"An idea is like a virus."

Damn!

WTF?!?!?

Oh yeah. Worth watching. :)

Big Trouble in Little China

Tonigh I am re-watching Big Trouble in Little China. Without any other rambling WATCH IT! It is worth watching! Did you watch it? Why not?

It starts off great, with Egg and his lawyer, and just gets better from there.

What would Jack Burton do? He would watch this movie!!!! Besides that it's all in the reflexes. :)

"Have you paid your dies Jack? Yes sir. The cheque is in the mail." 

Damn I am only 3 minutes 45 seconds in and already this movie is entertaining me to the point that I may just stop typing and enjoy it.

And I did.

"It's all in the reflexes." :)

I could be 5 minutes in or 30 it wouldn't matter. This is a great movie for so many reasons. Comedy. Drama. Action. You need to watch it. I am watching it for the umpteenth time and I know I will end up watching it again. And again. And again. :)

"Son of a bitch must pay!"

Oops. Watch it! :)

Seventh Son

Tonight I am watching Seventh Son. I have no idea why I picked it because I know nothing about it. Ok, that isn't completely true, I know the mythos around the 7th son of the 7th Son, and the Iron Maiden album about it. :) Hopefully it doesn't let me down.

It starts out ... meh ... he leaves her there. Not an auspicious beginning. And then .... ummm yeah. Not making me want to watch it much further. It better get ... better.

"This won't be an execution merely an education." heh ... who just got schooled? :) Ok. This peeks my interest a little. Just a little.

"The trick is not to spill." And long have I laboured to learn that trick. :)

Meh it is looking like the TV show Grimm, which I love, on the silver screen. So far I would rather be watching Grimm.

God damn I would love to boogie the night away with Julianne Moore. Or maybe not after she transforms. ;)

So why didn't Gregory just cover her cage in silver? Or her? Damn. Didn't think the squire would die so soon.

Still, Meh.

And now, 12 min in, we see the 7th son. Still meh so far.

Damn. Sir Gregory is such an ass I am hoping the witch wins.

Listen to your mother. Mother's know.

"Keep him safe!"
"Alas good lady, that is a vow I cannot make."
True dat!

"So what are you going to do with me apprentice?" Heh ... starting to like the movie. ;)

"When you address me address me as ..." Oh fuck off you old sot!

I am kind of enjoying the movie.

"Could be useful. Not the passing out part but the visions." heh ... good line.

Damn. Only 27 minutes have passed?

"Show me what you are!"

I am 33 minutes in and am still having a hard time giving a fuck about this movie.

"Missed." Ok better.

So, he doesn't have a lot of time to teach him. I get it now.

"That is disgusting. What does that kill?"
"Cowardice."
Heh.

Ok. Alice makes it more interesting.

So it is only 42 minutes in and it is still meh.

"If it is anything less than O'Bama we are on our way." Really? Did I hear that right?

Meh!

So he turns her. Meh. Not a horrible movie. Not a good one. Watch it if you want to.

Warpigs

I tried watching Warpigs tonight. It is a WW2 movie that tries to be a Dirty Dozen rip off but just can't do it.

I actually made it through the whole movie, Thanks to some judicious fast forwarding. It is a waste of time. Luckily I had booze. :)

Movie: Tokarev/Rage .... Avengers Grimm.

I started watching Tokarev with Nick Cage tonight. It is also known as Rage. It sucks. Real bad. So bad that I fast forwarded a bit before just shutting it off. Holy shit what a shite movie.

Then I started watching Avengers Grimm. It isn't that good a movie but the fight scenes are damn good. That can't save it but they scenes are good. Unlike Tokarev I may FF it but I will probably finish watching it.

Oh Casper van Diem how far you have fallen.

Ok. I couldn't finish this one either but it wasn't as bad as Tokarev.

Maybe I just needed more booze?

Hmmmm .... no they both still would have sucked.

Mad Max: Fury Road

Tonights movie is Mad Max: Fury Road.

It definitely has the feel of the Mad Max I know and love. A gritty, surreal, nihilistic future. It reminds me a lot of Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior. A lot of bald people instead of a maniac with a mohawk. :)

27:45 in and I can't believe that much time has passed. The movie has kept me engrossed and entertained. Not a lot of movies can say that for the amount of time that has passed.

Furiosa intrigues me. She is a bad ass.

Max as a blood bank is interesting too. I am wondering just how he will break free and if he will end Nux the Recipients life quickly or not. ;)

Oh, and THAT is a sandstorm!

Wow. Now THAT is a death wish! Almost makes me want to sing "You Light Up My Life." :)

Seriously? Some fucktard is shooting off fireworks. It is August fucking 29th not Canada Day. Ok, now I am going to have to find out who this fucking idiot is a few streets over. My dog does NOT like fireworks. This asshole disturbed my dog. But I digress.

Blood Bank 1 Nux 0. Oh just cut his fucking hand off.

Heh ... poor Max. Still not having a lot of luck with shotgun ammo.

They have it made it interesting the way he is wrestling with his ... damn ... women bathing ... demons.

Damn. I really like Furiosa.

Interesting how the concept of Valhalla has been worked into the new society.

Hmmm ... I really thought Max would have shot Nux once the chain was cut.

Heh   ... kick the chastity belt and run after the truck. I was going to say don't worry he will be back but Furiosa took care of that.

She is making the mistake of thinking Max actually cares about how Immortaln Joe will reward him. He wants Joe DEAD! He may not acknowledge it but he does.

Damn I am liking this movie.

Damn Nux is like a Terminator.

And Max is still acting, or reacting, like Max.

The more Max saws at the mask the more I think of the song "Chip Away the Stone". and he is free. So is Nux.

Bye Nux. Or is it?

Damn. I just realized. What happened to his bad knee?

God damn Furiosa is fucking amazing! What was I talking about?

And Nux got recognized.

Holy shit those guys know how to drive their cycles.

I guess this means they are working together?

And there is Nux in all of his aluminium glory.

Damn. I thought she was dead.

And now she is.

God damn. The movie is only half over. It feels like I just started watching it but it has been on forever.

Holy shit. 2 with one shot. FURIOSA! FURIOSA!

And Nux is still alive and kicking. Or at least slamming his head.

Oh Nux. Fuck her. Fuck Larry and Barry. Fuck her.

Damn. That is fucked up. Yes, you had a baby brother you fucked up fucktard.

So, Nux is coming around?

"I am the scales of justice." You are the next mother fucker to die.

Redemption. Now there is something to die for.

Furiosa has a good memory.

I guess the grass isn't greener. Damn!

Heh, back the way you came.

And Nox is still styling and profiling. :)

"What are you doing?"
"Praying."
"To who?"
"Anyone that is listening."
Damn!

Nox and Red up in a tree. :)

God damn!

So the sniper crone carries the seeds. Interesting.

Damn. Sniper crone is a good shot.
"One man. One bullet."

Damn Nox is useful!

Nice fight scene.

Kill the guitarist. Make it hurt. Why is he still alive?

I mean. Damn. WTF?!? The guitarist died. Eventually. Didn't he?

God damn. Furiosa! What a face rip!

Damn. Nox!

Damn. That is the Max I know.

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! Oh yeah. Damn. Should have remembered that.

"Max. My name is Max."

God damn I like this movie. :)

"Where must we go ...
we who wander the Wasteland
in search of our better selves?"
The First History Man

Watch this movie!!!!

Jurassic World

The movie tonight is Jurassic World.

A friend gave me a copy of a CAM version he got. Considering it was recorded in a theater it is DAMN good

Strangely enough, it was recorded in a theater in South Korea. How do I know? It has Korean Subtitles. My Korean is pretty weak after so long away but I actually found it interesting to try and follow along. :) I will be saving this copy.

It starts off mundane enough. Ok Parents aren't going.

Kids that are related to someone in the park will be the focus. Homages are paid to Jurassic Park and Hammond.

It is interesting so far. The whole idea of marketing a hybrid to a company.

The new version of Hammond, Masrani, thinks he can fly a helicopter. Heh.

Helicopter pilot is throwing up.
Aunt "Are you ok?" 
Masrani "He is just being dramatic." 
Well played. :)

Damn Pratt has the raptors well trained.

I am liking it so far. Looking forward to the field test.

"Maybe progress should lose for once." Word.

25 minutes in and I am definitely being entertained.

God damn, I never would have thought it but the Hangul is making me nostalgic about my time in South Korea.

Ok, back to the movie, Pratt's character, Owen, and the aunt, Claire, almost have a thing going. Will it evolve? Will she make him instrumental in saving the new kids on the block ... I mean in the park? Only time will tell.

"Oh Shit!" Yeah. Damn. The hybrid is on the loose!

God damn! It is on the move. Makes T-Rex look like a pussy!

"It's in the cage! It's in there with you!"

Oh yeah, he's dead.

And because Pratt sliced the gas line ... he's alive. Damn. I have to remember that one for the zombie apocalypse. Better than zombie blood and guts.

Ok, so the asshole who wants to weaponize the raptors is an asshole. What an epiphany. Hope the raptors eat him. Heh ... they probably will. :)

Easy to see where Pratt and the raptors will be heading.

Some tough brotherly love on the topic of divorce.

Really? Kayaking through dino areas. Fucktards. Where is the new chaos theory exponent?!?!?

Here comes some food. I mean an attack team with non-lethal weapons.

So much for the tracker. So much for the attack team.

Damn she is badass. I bet you regret making her now. If you were smart you would. But you can't see beyond the error of your ways can you?

"Evacuate the island." Too late.

Owen: "You made a genetic hybrid. Raised it in captivity. She is seeing all of this for the first time. She does not even know what she is. She will kill everything that moves."

Ok, so, they used DNA to create a prehistoric douchebag.

Masrani: You think the animal is contemplating its own existence?

Owen: "She is learning where she fits on the food chain and I'm not sure you want her to figure that out."

DAMN!


"All of this exists because of me. If I don't inovate someone else will." You are such a good little soldier aren't you. Don't question. Just do. My father fought your kind back in the day ... what were you called then ... oh yeah Nazis. I was just following orders. Fucktard.

And now she worries about her nephews. Wow she is so ignorant about her nephews.

I am still not liking Claire. Owen is great.

The rescue is on.

So the genetically created dinosaur is hunting for sport. Like the fucking piece of shit dentist that killed Cecil the Lion. What a piece of shit.

Damn.

And I got so wrapped up in watching the movie that I forgot to type anything. Speaks volumes about the movie.

Is that the old Jurassic Park main building?!?!? Nice homage.

Very nice homage.

Ok, this movie wants me to watch the Jurassic Park movies and THEN this movie again. Well done. :)

Moral of the story ... always keep your weapon on you. And be able to run. RUN!

Another homage.

"Its like the fox in the hen house." Someone really needs to kill that piece of shit. Soon.

"That's a first." No second for you fodder.

Bwahahahahaha .... an air raid siren!!!

Ok, Claire and Pratt are definitely going to be knocking boots.

"You are all relieved. There is a new team on the ground." A team of cunts led by a cunt. Ok Pratt is leading them, not the Ingen cunt.

She looks fine all sweaty.

"I am their alpha." Heh.

"We'll always be brothers."

"No matter what!" Word!

"Your boyfriend is a badass." Heh.

Go Raptors!!!

"Watch your 6! Raptors got a new alpha." And carnage ensues.

Damn!

I like this movie. :)

Damn!

"Please no, don't tell your mom about that ever." Heh :)

Oh fuck me. The friend zone.

It is kind of funny. InGen is still the villain but managed to make enough inroads to really fuck things up.

I can't believe the InGen fucktard is still alive. Come on Blue. Kill the piece of shit!

Go Blue! Go Blue!

God damn!

And double god damn. Bryce, I mean Claire, looks good. :)

Get some more teeth!

"Why did you have to make it personal?" Bwahahahahaha!

And that is a lot more teeth!

DAMN!!!! I guess the fishy one was hungry!

Heh. She had to warn them that their parents were coming.

Ouch. I think her sister is pissed.

"So what do we do now?"
"Probably stick together. For survival."

Good movie. Watch it!

The Amityville Horror

It is Halloween night and after handing out candy to the kiddies I am

watching the original Amityville Horror.

19 minutes in. The real estate agent sold them. The priest has fled.

Margot Kidder is in pigtails. SHWIIIIIINNNNNNGGGG! Damn she looks good.

Even better in pigtails.

So, WWID? What would I do? Flee like the priest? No. I would do Margot

Kidder. Damn that pigtail look.

Seriously though, DAMN! :) Flee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If I heard a disembodied voice tell me to get out I would hope I had enough sense to get the hell out. After doing Margot Kidder. :)

The story is good and the signs are subtle. He turns to the dark side.

Evil shit starts happening slowly.

The basement. Damn. The basement.

Margot Kidder doing ballet in her undies. Damn.

I hope they realize the ghosts are watching them fuck. Or at least we are.

Scarily enough this isn't what I remember of the movie. I remember the evil horror shit.

This could be called the Flannel Family moves in to a hautned house. Damn! Kidder still has one legging on.

God damn that cat!

And the wood chopping starts.

God damn ... that skirt. If you don't put the axe down and take her right now you have to be possessed!

George, you are possessed. Seriously though, if you think those 2 bags are a weeks worth of groeeries you are starving.

The build ups to all out batshit haunting is subtle. I like that.

Hmmm ... so a demon possessed house keeps religous people away? Hmmm ... bye bye Jehovah Witnesses?

George ... let her warm you up. Damn! You possessed.

"There was a presence in the house." Damn!

When he was ordered to sit teh Priest should have told the "superior" priest to fuck off.

Damn. It was a good watch when I first saw it and it still is.

I hate flies!

The orange upper lights are evil. EVIL!

Kill Jodie!

Fuck the basement.

GET OUT!!!

The Last Night!

Oh yeah. Get the fuck out!

Watch this!

The Babadook

Tonight I am watching the Babadook, another recommended movie.

Intense opening. Then meh.

Wow. What an inventive brat. I guess she never heard of the benefits of a wooden spoon.

And the brat is in trouble. No, he needs a full time monitor!

Yes, his name is Samuel. But he is a boy AND he needs help. Mom, you aren't helping.

Yeah, your kid jumping and yelling about smashing "his" head is no sign that he needs help.

Holy shit that kid is a screamer ... and seriously in need of some discipline. And I am not even 10 minutes into the movie. Dunno if I will be able to watch this.

Interesting book. Maybe letting the brat pick a book wasn't such a good idea.

Yeah, I see where this is going, I just don't care. Samuel just isn't that sympathetic. Neither is the mother.

Bwahahahahahaha!!!!!! OK, the vibrator is making me chuckle. Yet I am still not caring about the characters. I just keep wondering how the brat is going to interrupt her orgasm. And that is how. Damn! OK, now I feel some sympathy for the mother. Orgasmus Interruptus.

And she went into the basement. Didn't she see Scream?

OK. The kid is seriously fucked in the head.

24 minutes in. Still not caring. Boredom is setting in.

Even if the Babadook is setting the kid up ... the kid is still seriously fucked up. Or she is. Or they both are. Or ... fuck I just don't care.

No Amelia, it is true. You can't cope.

Damn. Samuel is going all Damian.

Yet still all I see is a fucking brat that has been allowed to act out his whole life and is probably fucked in the head.

Even if they finally introduce the Babadook as being "real" Samuel has been set up as just a brat too much to find any sympathy for him.

"Why don't people like me?" At least it is a kid asking. I once had a grown ass adult co-worker who went around asking people "Why don't people like me?" One night he asked me if I find him annoying. I said yes. He didn't know how to react. But I digress ... because this movie is boring me.

35 minutes in. I know the Babadook will eventually be revealed and the kid was the only one who saw it. But I just can't find any sympathy for him or his mom.

36 minutes in. knock knock knock. No one there. Babadook arrives. Book on the door step. All torn up inside. Yet I still don't care.

OK, the book is actually interesting. More interesting than the movie. Showing her deterioration. Maybe it is all about her descent into madness and not his.

She burns the book. And now she gets phone calls from Babadook.

OK, if the movie is about Amelia's descent into madness it makes more sense. Yet I still find it hard to care.

Had to stop watching 50 minutes in. I want my time back.

OK started watching it again. The book was prophetic. Damn. Kid is taking her to town! That will teach you to be psychotic or possessed.

OK, now it is like Home Alone meets The Exorcist and ... I am starting to find some interest. :)

OK, I was wrong. I have some sympathy for the kid now. The movie took a twist I didn't expect. Definitely an Exorcist overtone now.

I am starting to like it ... a bit. Holy fuck it was slow getting to this point. If the lead in were more interesting, yet still slow, it would have been better. It pretty much made me want to stop watching.

OK, the conversation with social workers was funny.

And Amelia and Samuel have bonded over the Babadook that is in their basement. That mom brings worms to.

The end. Thank fuck. Such potential wasted.

And I used OK way too much.




















The Bell Witch Haunting

Tonight I was watching The Bell Witch Haunting. I say was because holy shit this is horrible.

I am 25 minutes in and I have skipped shit to get this far in. Is it a teen angst ridden T&A movie? A horror movie? Or just a piece of shite?

I only started watching it because I have read about the Bell Witch and the history around what happened.

Stupidly enough the only reason I have hit play again is because I am hoping it will get interesting. If it doesn't within 10 minutes I will probably stop watching.

Good god I don't think I can even go another 5 minutes ... oh what is this? Meh ... hard to care.

Fuck me. I can't even make 30 minutes. This movie just plain old sucks. Even T&A and panty clad ass can't save it.

Do yourself a favour and run, do not walk, RUN away from this movie.

Piece of shite.

Star Trek 2: Reboot Boogaloo.

I watched the reboot of Star Trek for the first time since it came out in 2009. I saw it in a theatre in South Korea then. It was a good action movie, unfortunately, I was just so tired of reboots then that I wished they did something original. That tainted my enjoyment of it. If I hadn't seen all the Star Trek stuff before it I probably would have enjoyed it But I had. And it tried to be original but wasn't yet was. I would have preferred they just started off with new people and a new idea. so I didn't like it ... then.

I watched it on Showcase last week and saw it in a new light, 6 years later. I judged it on it's own merits and liked it. This time I was able to hold back my distaste for reboots and watch it.

Now I am watching the 2nd movie in the reboot series. It starts off right. Kirk ignoring the Prime Directive and Spock wanting to abide by it. :)

Once again my distaste for reboots started rearing its ugly head. Or noble head depending on how much you like reboots. They did the reboot shit in the first movie. They set a new path. Why bother rebooting more stuff? Take a new direction.

Yet, I am still enjoying the movie. :)

Kirk breaks the Prime Directive. Nothing new. He gets sent back to Starfleet Academy? Something new.

I am almost 20 minutes into the movie but I find my old prejudices about reboots coming out. WTF? There goes London! What?!?!?

Kirk drinking whiskey and listening to the blues? I can relate to that. :) Feeling better about the movie.

Interesting twist. Kirk back as 1st Officer.

"Where I come from if someone saves you don't stab them in the back." Well said.

And when assembled Kirk is right yet again. :)

Damn Pike is all kinds of fucked up. Much like the original show.

No Spock don't do it. Do it. Don't do it. Do it. Fuck, you did it.

Ok Pike is more fucked up than the original.

Interesting turn of events but it is still just a reboot of Kirk vs Khan.

God damn! Section 31!!!!

The crew interaction is damn good. And Wallis (or Wallace) is the next Kirk Conquest and betrayal.

Damn he accepted Scott's resignation!!!???

I am really liking this ... reboot. Damn!?!?!?

"Ears burning?" Heh.

Put on a red shirt? Fuck! That is consigning Chekov to death! A red shirt. Damn! It is a reboot so they could kill him off. Will they?!?!?

Ok, hot blonde Science Officer Kirk wants to shtup is definitely Section 31. And up to no good.

Go get her Spock! Dr. Marcus?!?!? Wait ... rebooooooooooooot!
Heh heh heh ... new Chekov. :)

New Sulu is good but damn George Takei is better!!!!!!!

Is Kirk picking off Section 31 people?

"Mr. Sulu. Remind me to never piss you off." HAHAHAHAHA!!!

The chase scene reminds me of the Falcon in Star Wars. DAMN!!!

Go Uhuru!!!!

No one wants the wrath of Uhuru! Not even the Klingons! Ok didn't see that coming.

Or that. Or the helo sort of rappeling thing.

Spock lied!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Quite the surrender.

I like the Spock-Uhuru thing. :)

23174611 ... I am waiting.

"I can give you 72 and they are aboard your ship." Damn!

"Are you out of your corn fed mind?" Heh :)

"I once performed a C-section on a pregnant Gorn." HAHAHAHAH!!!!

Go Jim Go!!!!!!!!!

DAMN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What the reverse!?!?!?

Oh yeah ... Spock is pissed! KHANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

God damn what a twist!!!!!

I like it!!!!

It Follows

Tonight is a Port night and I am watching It Follows.

It opens with ... bitch running away from anything in heels is just stupid ... a woman running away from something. Ditch the heels and pick up some speed! But I digress.

So she runs back into the house she ran out of and runs back out and into her car. I am starting to feel bored already.

Sitting at the beach with her car lights ... holy shit that is one contorted corpse!

And now on to the main character.

"How cool would it be to have your whole life ahead of you." Nice.

Sex in a car to strapped out of it in a chair. Strange.

So he fucked her and this thing that has been following him will now follow her. The title makes sense all of a sudden.

"Sleep with someone as soon as you can. If it kills you it will come after me." Damn. Self serving and still ... damn.

And she starts seeing things ... or people.

Interesting premise.

Damn. This isn't just some fucked up game.

It has me watching. It has me thinking. It has me engaged in the movie.

Damn!

So she fucked someone else ... who lives across the street. And it is after him. Which means it will then come for her.

And it does.

Really? It bleeds?

And she passes it on ... and he looks for a hooker. :)

Not bad. It makes you think and is worth a watch.

Saw

Tonight I am watching Saw. It was recommended by 2 friends. I thought it was just your basic slasher flick but I was wrong. So wrong.

There is a lot more depth  to it. A serial killer is killing off people who prove they are unworthy to live. Or rather who are ungrateful to be alive.

It starts off with 2 men chained in a room. I knew what the hacksaws were meant for right off the bat. It was pretty obvious. Or was it? :)

I liked this movie a lot. It made me think. It made me guess. It made me watch. It made me focus and not type. It made me rewatch to see what I missed. Not a lot of movies do that.

It is REALLY worth watching. Dunno about the rest of the Saw movies but the first is damn good.

Kingsman: The Secret Service

Tonight I am sipping 40 Creek and watching Kingsman: The Secret Service. Off the bat I can't remember if it is an action movie or a comedy. Or an actomedy a la Get Smart.

Nice opening. A ghetto blaster in 97. I used to own a blaster that looked like that ... in the 80's. :)

Interesting start to the movie. The sacrifice for Queen and Country.

Ah ... the kid is a legacy.

And now back to the future which is the present.

Nice action scene. And there is Scotch. Mmmmm. 1962 Dalmore. It would be a pity to spill any. :) Ok ... this is all kinds of fucked up. But it works. Sort of. Kind of. Maybe. Yeah, it does because Samuel L "Mother Fucking" Jackson is in the movie!

One of the things I love about Samuel L. Jackson is that he isn't afraid to take on the role of a bad guy.

Ok, back to the movie. 11:51 in and it is interesting. The ground work has been set. You know the kid is going to be the next Kingsman. The next Lancelot.

The whole Knights of the Round Table is fitting for the Secret Service.

The reverse car chase is pretty good. The end of it was predictable. I wouldn't be surprised to find out that he was put into the situation to get him to join. A la Remo Williams.

Just because the father is a good man doesn't mean the son is or will be. But he will be given a chance. Heh ... always someone else's fault. That is pretty much people today.

"Manners maketh man." I like that. I know what it means. :) Damn. Nice fight scene.

Iggy Azalea made it into the movie?!?!? Damn.

Interesting way they got the funding. Makes sense.

Not enough violence yet. Some great actions scenes but I am in the mood for violence. :) Ok now the race to be the net Lancelot begins. I expect the violence to arrive soon.

Every time they show Samuel L Jackson's character I just refuse to hear the lisp. It makes him more serious. :)

Damn. That is some serious weeding out process. I like it.

OK, 40 minutes in and I am liking this movie.

And there is Eggsies (sp?) reason to thrive.

And the lead in is becoming tiresome.

Still ignoring ... or trying to ... Jackson's lisp. It is easier not to take his character seriously.

Thank you for such a ... happy meal. :)

Ok the McDonalds shit is over the top. That is just too cruel! ;)

Eggy needs to throw the fucking hat away.

"Being a gentleman has nothing to do with ones birth. Being a gentleman is something one learns." Well said. Not enough gentlemen in the world today.

True nobility is being superior to your former self. Once again well said.

As in locked up. Yeah, I have trouble understanding him too.

I am glad I am wrong but ... about the dog ... yeah shoot him. Ok I wasn't wrong ... at the moment. Fuck it. Shoot them all. If he doesn't fix it .. fuck.

Merica! Fuck yeah! Ok too facetious. But it is what it is. ;)

This is mine ... I will show you yours. ;)

The heads blowing up!!! Bwahahahahahahahaha!

All in all, I liked it. SLJ was not the best choice for the villain. Not because he lacks ability, but rather the villain was too meek.

Devil's Pass

A co-worker recommended the movie Devil's Pass to me. So, I watched it tonight.

It is about a group of documentarians, is that a word? A group of people going to film a documentary about a group of Russians, supposedly 9, that died in Dyatlev Pass in the Urals.

Strange things start happening as soon as the group gets to Russia. They are told a man they want to interview is dead. However, he is in the window holding a sign basically telling them to leave.

They meet a bartender's Aunt who was Nurse there when they found the people in the pass. She says there were 11 not 9.

The weirdness continues. When they get on their way it starts to remind me of The Blair Witch Project. Group of documentarians encounter strange shit but don't actually see it. Foot prints around their camp. Shit like that.

It isn't bad so far, I am am about 43 minutes into it, but it isn't that good. Better production values than Blair Witch Project, but that was sort of intentional to give BWP the feel it had.

Oh and no I don't think it is the Yeti following them. Mind you, it could be. But the one in charge says it isn't because they don't exist. Why would she be in charge if she didn't know these things. ;)

And the Geiger counters are picking up stuff. Can you see this Jensen? Oh Jensen! There is a door!!!!! A door in the middle of the mountain that locks from the outside. Of course they will open it. Wouldn't you? Nope. I would get the fuck out of there.

Oh yeah, let's leave the door that is already unlocked until tomorrow. Wow. Impeach your leader!

Orange lights in the sky. Hmmmm.

Holly has been strangely drawn to this place.

Hmmmmmm.

Holly and Jensen head for the door. Oh, and of course the cameraman goes too. He is omnipresent.

And they go in. Why am I having visions of the voice in Amityville Horror telling the priest to "Get Out!"?!?!?

Don't power up! Get out!

I like that this movie has me thinking. It isn't the greatest movie I have ever seen but it is entertaining me.

Damn! It works the Philadelphia Experiment into the movie!!!! :)

Ewwww they found his tongue earlier.

Feh ... why not switch batteries. Heh. :)

Ok ... I won't give anything else away. I like this movie. :) It isn't the best but it made me think. And I was right, which makes me like it even more. Being right is usually good. :)

Damn ... I see sequel.

They Live

The Rowdy One is gone. R.I.P. Roddy Piper. Gone, but never forgotten. He will live on in video, be it wrestling or movies. In remembrance of him I am watching They Live tonight. I haven't seen it in about 15-20 years.

I either did not know or completely forgot that They Live is a John Carpenter movie. Damn!

Holy shit Piper looks young. Then again, he was back then, it was 27 years ago.

The lead in is kind of slow and if you don't pay attention you will miss things.

when it comes to people trying to survive ... S2D2 ... same shit different decade.

"The golden rule. He who has the gold makes the rules." Steel makers in the movie and bankers now. Car makers in between. Like I said, same shit different decade.

TV was used to make people into zombies then. Now it is cell phones. What exactly is the opiate of the masses?

Now I am remembering why I liked the movie so much. :)

22 minutes in and still kind of slow. But it works.

Bye bye shanty town. But they will rebuild.

I love how they show the use of subliminal messaging. Send me money. It is well done. Send me money. Of course we don't know it until he gets the right pair of shades. Send me money.

It is a sad commentary on society that the theme of this movie STILL resonates today.

Damn Piper really pulls off the facial expressions the first time he sees one of THEM.

Heh ... money sublimanlly says "THIS IS YOUR GOD." It does seem like that with a lot of people. Send me money. ;)

And now it all starts to come together.

Interesting the first thing I think of when he sees the Politician is one of them with OBEY behind him is George Bush with Mission Accomplished behind him. When had he accomplished? NOTHING!

"You know, you look like your head fell in the cheese dip back in 1957."

Heh :)

"You see, I take these glasses off, she looks like a regular person, doesn't she? Put 'em back on ... formaldehyde-face!"

Damn ... you gave yourself away!

"That's like pouring perfume on a pig." Bwahahahahahaha!!!

And now I am reminded of ... GO ROWDY!!! Clothesline! GO ROWDY!! Kick their asses!!!! ... oops I digress ... reminded of Monty Python. "Come see the violence inherent in the system."

"I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass ... and I am all out of bubblegum." Heh :)

"Momma don't like tattletales." BLAM!!!!!!!!!

Damn! NOW things are speeding up. Go Roddy! Go Roddy!

God damn! Does her ass look that nice with the sunglasses on? Yes it does. :)

Is Captain Lou Albano her neighbour?!?!?!? Nope, but it could be his son.

Ouch! Damn! Never trust a dame! Ummm ... never kidnap a dame?

And that is why you don't hide stuff in garbage!

"I'm giving you a choice. Either put on these glasses or start eating that trashcan." Sounds like we have ourselves a no disqualification street fight here!!!! Go Roddy!

"You dirty motherfucker!" Heh ... someone forget it was no DQ. :)

And there was a WWF ... oops ... WWE move. :)

God damn! Piper fights as dirty in the movie as he did in the ring! Go Roddy!

Roddy suplexed him!!!

"You ain't the first son of a bitch to wake up from their dream!"

Life as you know it is over. Or as Roddy said "Brother, life's a bitch... and she's back in heat."

The hotel room ... that is the raging Rowdy Roddy that I remember from the ring. :)

"You can take your sunglasses off in here. We are all human."  Fuck that! Trust no one without the lenses!

Interesting corridor.

I need assistance.

DAMN!

And in the end he gives them the finger. :)

Love the ending.

God damn. Good movie. I reccommend it. :)



DOA: Dead or Alive

I was perusing a site and saw a blurb about a movie called DOA Dead or Alive.

The set up was interesting enough. A group of female martial arts experts are invited to take part in DOA. A competition. Well, that is how it seems.

The fight scenes so far, 11 minutes in, have been great.

Devon Aoki. Mmmmm.

Three, oops four, women who have been invited are the core of the story. Men have been invited but at this point who cares. :)

Right off the bat I was thinking of .... Blood Sport. Kumite! Kumite! Kumite! The movie has about the same amount of plot to it. But it works. Kind of like, well, Blood Sport and Desperado. Yet so much better than the Street Fighter movie.

Still not caring that guys were invited. To be fodder. :)

OMG ... her father bit her in the inner thigh. :) Oh to be Kevin Nash. :)

Holy shit there is a plot. Of sorts. But now the Martial arts women are playing volleyball so who cares. :)

Oh yeah bitch the glasses are off!

It is a good movie to watch if you just want to see some fighting. It doesn't take any thinking. If it was as bloody as Desperado it would have been better. :)

A good way to while away some time.

Hokey ending but I liked it. :)

I didn't know it at the time but it is based on a video game.

Hmmm ... now I want to watch Blood Sport again. And Desperado.

Journey 2: The Mysterious Island

On a whim I decided to watch Journey 2: The Mysterious Island.

It started off ok, with a funny police chase. The step-father, played by The Rock, just happens to be an ex-Navy cryptographer who then decides to help his step-son go to mysterious island and find his Grandfather.

The step-father also just happens to be rich and takes the step-son to find the island.

Luis Guzman for comedic relief works.

So far it is actually kind of funny. The helicopter ... heh. Damn. Intense flight.

"We are literally walking on eggshells."

C'mon Rock throw a People's Elbow on that lizard!

Action scenese aren't bad. Ok, he punched the giant lizard. That was pretty good.

Granpa is Michael Caine. Cool. :) The back and forth between him and the Rock is pretty good.

The peck pop of love. Bwahahahahahahaha!!! Feed 'em they are hungry. Bwahahahahahaha!!!

God damn ... I am ... enjoying the movie. Damn! I started off not expecting much of anything. ok, I lie, I expected a huge suck fest. It isn't bad.

"Medi-care doesn't cover old ladies falling off of giant bees." Classic. :)

The movie is good enough that I can suspend my disbelief of giant bees. Nice chase scene.

Rocking the ukelele. :)

Ok. If you want a movie that is funny without having to think a lot then this is a good one. I like it.

Great ending. WTF with the game off game on? Sounded like being in Canada. ;)
