I spent a lot of time in the SE US while in the Army. Yes, there are people like this.

Generally very nice folks.

Reservoir Dogs, great flick.

I thought both Pulp Fiction and Jackie Brown were excellent. And True Lies, if we consider that a Tarantino film.
You mean True Romance.

I want to see that version now. :(

Just watched the first episode of Rectify imdb and I have to say I liked it quite a bit.

Synopsis - a man on death row is released after DNA evidence is analyzed which lends doubt to the validity of his conviction for at least part of a the rape murder of his high school girlfriend (I think) when they were in high school. 20 years later he is released and sets about the difficult task of returning to life after 20 years on death row. The skills he developed to cope with death row are completely out of place for civilian life and he has spent 20 years away from human contact so lacks social skills. The small town he comes from dis-approves and still thinks he is guilty given his confession (possibly coerced) and witnesses.

After the first episode the only concerns I have is that the family members will become one issue ponies each with his or her own specific concern or problem for the protagonist to deal with. I have high hopes though.
First Maxim - "There are only two amounts, too few and enough."
First Corollary - "You cannot have too many soldiers, only too few supplies."
Second Maxim - "Be willing to exchange a bad idea for a good one."
Second Corollary - "You can only be wrong or agree with me."

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.

Meh, a Tarantino version would be pretty predictable.

meh, The Governator never delivered a line with that many consecutive words in his entire career.

You know, all kidding aside, it really bums me out that True Lies (and, far more crucially, like, the crucialest, The Abyss) are not out on Blu Ray yet. :(

For all you Patton Oswalt fans:

QuotePatton Oswalt guest-stars on this week's Parks & Recreation as a filibustering Pawnee citizen. The show has just released a nearly nine-minute video showing Oswalt improvising a pitch for Star Wars: Episode VII.

Among other things, the comedian makes a heartfelt and hilarious pitch for linking together the Star Wars and Avengers franchises — because Thanos has the Reality Gem! Don't forget about the Reality Gem! — while also roadmapping some incredible new developments for Chewbacca. Also, Boba Fett. Also, Moon Knight.

It's true.  You know who forgot about the reality gem?  The Magus.  And it did him no good.

Would love a clearer shot of JLC too.

The Abyss; love that flick.

Fair enough.  Basically what I'm saying is I can't tell you how orgasmically pleased I am that someone, somewhere, somehow made an Infinity War reference.  What more could one ask for?  Much.  And soon that too will be mine.

Quote from: InfantryThe Abyss; love that flick.

Right on.  It's a hell of a film.  I believe Cameron's working on it for BD, and may be out this year, but a release date has not been set.
