:huh: why?

I don't recall exact phrases but it was all very Eliza Doolittle

What makes it an olde British Hooker accent compared to just an olde British accent?
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

Sex and The City

Still a horribly trashy movie that I can't hate. :blush:

I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim.

The big one was the fate of Vulcan.  The stupid look of the new Enterprise was another.  And that's not even taking into account things that annoyed me but didn't cause terror, like the odd slowness of the Romulan ship, the unusual behavior of warp drive, and the fact that Kirk made captain before he even graduated.

Did you enjoy the allergic reaction all the Romulans seemed to be having to the script?

Delirium

Finally read Watchmen Friday morning. Saw the movie this afternoon.

Book extremely rewarding. Movie largely a failure.
Come writers and critics who prophesize with your pen, and keep your eyes wide the chance won't come again; but don't speak too soon for the wheel's still in spin, and there's no telling who that it's naming. For the loser now will be later to win, cause the times they are a-changin'. -- B Dylan

Some movie with Bale about a cop in a dystopian future where emotions are outlawed. sucked. But i did learn that his "batman voice" is not really batmans voice, it's just the voice he makes when he's trying to be intimidating. Still annoying though.
Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".
Hubris must be punished. Severely.

Equillibrium.  I rather enjoyed it myself.  It has Sean Bean in it! :thumbsup:

Grey Fox

My best friends girl.

Kate Hudson needs implants, she's still pretty hot tho.

Dane Cook remains the man.

The Handmaid's Tale (1991)

Stick with the novel.  Though Faye Dunaway shines as Serena Joy.  And the Handmaids Day of the Locust moment with a "rapist" (really a political prisoner) is loads of fun.
Robert Duvall phones in his role as The Commander!

DisturbedPervert

Watched Life of David Gale.  It's about an anti death penalty advocate on death row for murdering another anti death penalty activist.  It seemed to get low scores from reviewers who claimed it wasn't a good movie as an anti death penalty vehicle.  But who gives a shit, it was enjoyable.

The Punisher

When Castle was punishing people it was pretty damn good, but the movie went overboard with the wacky antics of his neighbors.

the slang... "ducks" and or grating twangy phrases....stereotypical cockney in old British movies was code for "whore"... regular Londoners in old movies talked stage British, like American actors did the Mid Atlantic thing you can see on display admirably from Ben Affleck in Hollywoodland.
:p

The Strangers


It scared the shit out of me.
I want my mother fucking points!

Liep

Have anyone watched Trier's Antichrist yet? I'd like a "normal" person's review of that. :p
