So, I have a cold, I am down in Gulfport and don't want to spend money, so decided to spend my Friday evening in the room watching a movie or two.
Get the Gringo, pretty good, different. And to cheer me up, I watched Deliverance, excellent movie.

Riddick, good sci fi with simple story, violence, nudity, and a few humorous moments. Like a well done sci fi B movie.

Concur.  It's juvenile, almost beyond belief, but I enjoyed it, partly on that account.

Full write-up: Rule the brown

B

I watched Blue Jasmine a while back.  It is also a B, but while interesting to watch, it's a little boring to talk about.

A Vin Diesel movie getting a B? Oh hell no. (Even if it has Starbuck - she's a woman!)

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

The Assburger Generation just loves Vin Diesel.

Ide and I are in the same generation. :huh:

I consider you an outlier, for a variety of reasons.

I gave the last two FF movies Bs.  They're low Bs, but they're watchably fun.  (And I like Han and Gisele's ass.)

Anyway, I grade on entertainment value, and I happen to be entertained by gore, survivalism, softcore porn, and desert landscapes.  That's why Lawrence of Arabia is so good.

I am also entertained by science fantasy, and by Vin Diesel saying words.  It's just so cute.

Yeah you really are a shitty movie reviewer. It is possible that you just might have tainted Ethan. :cry:

I hope so.  You don't deserve him. :angry:

I think that Seedy meant that as a compliment, in this context.

I mean, if Ide's in a group, who wouldn't want to be an outlier?

I don't get the picture of Schwimmer?
I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.

And people give me shit about my Costner Crush.  :rolleyes:

I think it's just because Hawke and Ide share the same ability to grow facial hair: like a 15 year old Latino busboy.

Pining over lost lesbian love.  If only he'd been stronger, faster, or had night vision.
