Ptooey.  Now go buy some food, for fuck's sake.  You have enough Blu-Ray end table coasters.

Little spoiled rat bastards.  In my time, you either had a red astronaut or a white astronaut.  That was it during the Cold War.  Those were your choices during the Reagan Administration.  None of this merchanidizing agreements.  We had to invent a Darth Vader Lego, goddammit.
This is patently false.  There was also a blue astronaut and a yellow astronaut.

I watched the Quick and the Dead.  Has little going for expect for sexy Sharon Stone.  I thought they were going to find out that they were in Hell, or in a space ship it was all in someone's head to explain the over use of cliche and the story the is both absurd and barely there.  No, just over use of cliche and an absurd story that is barely there.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Just got X-Men: DOFP, The Descent, and The Ring. Little late for Halloween, but I'm especially looking forward to The Descent, about which I have heard only good things.

Also! The Brood is on Hulu. Catching up with Cronenberg!

Sounds like something Canada would do.  Metric Legos and shit.

Couldn't agree more about that abomination.

That movie sucked dead balls, very quickly.

I liked an early scene where the you see the sun shine out of Sharon Stone's hat.  The part of the problem with the film was I couldn't tell if was a parody or a homage.  The whole premise is absurd, but it's done with deadly seriousness.  Cliche is embraced to the extreme to the point that it's actually kind of spooky like the film is possessed by the spirits of films that came before it.

These were US Legos.  You just didn't get any, due to the aforementioned cheapness of your Santa and parents.
