In Die Hard 3, he was a tough guy who survived a devastating subway crash, a 100-foot fall onto a container ship that he was trying to climb onto and a flash flood through a tunnel.

And his greatest peril:  Harlem in an sandwich board sign.

What's so perilous about this?  :huh:

Sam Jackson had his back there, so it wasn't so bad.

So Welcome To Hard Times came on a Oh-Dark-Thirty this AM; while it stays loyal to the novel in most respects, Henry Fonda as Blue is perhaps one of the worst castings of his career.  No matter how hard he tries, he simply can't portray a tired frontier wimp.  Just doesn't work.

Aldo Ray is my anti-happy.

Also I've never got the whole glorification of the American working class as the underdog thing...the US is anything but the underdog

This calls for a special smilie with Josq's face on it.
:unsure:
Why?
Because I can't relate to the whole Springsteanian glorification of the American worker thing?

Saw The Goon.  It was a good little film, stayed nice and focused on being funny.

Yeah, it was basically alright.  I get the impression that it's being overpraised.

Saw it last week.  Thought it had the usual time-travel plot holes but was fun nonetheless.  Quite good, really.
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

Zack and Miri Make a Porno- Did its trick of being background entertainment. A thoroughly meh comedy.

Boardwalk Empire- I just realised yesterday that there is a new series. Woot. The new (? I can't remember him anyway...) guy. The one who kills the dog walker at the start...rather interesting how they set him up. It really feels now that with everything he says he's gonna flip.
Thank god he didn't kill the dog.

Saw Rob Roy the other day and I thought it was terrific. I never hear much about it but it really was excellent. Liam Neeson was Liam Neeson, Jessica Lange stole every scene she was in and Tim Roth was absolutely incredible. The sword fight at the end was fantastic. :o

Basically what I'm saying is Rob Roy fucking owned.

Did he kill any albanians?

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.
