        Being called a ********** isn't personal?

        - No. It's two nouns combined to elicit a prescribed response.

        What if somebody calls my mama a whore?

        - Is she?

          Road House or Shawshank Redemption are on tv, at any given time, on some channel, somewhere.

              And that's what i mean. The people who made Road House thought they were actually making a legitimate, serious piece of work. The same with Rock of Ages.

              The thing that makes Eurotrip and Ski School so great is that they have no pretensions that what they're doing has any artistic merit to it, they know they're just dumb comedies, and they embrace it, and go with it.

                Gotcha. I see your viewpoint now.

                    I don't think Sam Elliott has a Harry Dean Stanton Rule. He's in a lot of dreck that he can't save.

                        I love Sam Elliott, but Ben Gazzara would have been a better choice here.

                          The first Ghost Rider wasn't terrible. It wasn't great, but I don't regret watching it. The second one, though....I need 3 daggers: one for each eye and one for a slow-bleeding gut-stab, because that would have been less painful to endure.

                          Footprints: The Path Of Your Life:

                          A priest leads 10 others on the Camino de Santiago pilgrimage. Documentary, pretty light-hearted, but interesting just to see the scenery. Might be worth a gander for those who are curious.


                          Deadfall:

                          Copy from the IMDB description: A thriller that follows two siblings who decide to fend for themselves in the wake of a botched casino heist, and their unlikely reunion during another family's Thanksgiving celebration.

                          Lots of subplots, and frankly, the subplots are really the story, while the main plot is just basically holding everything together and not the main focus. The ending fell into that style of "wait, so what happened in the aftermath?" It was a bit messy in that regard. The movie itself was quite enjoyable, though.

                            I'm disappointed, because until I read your description, I thought this was the infamous "Nic Cage plays a raging cokehead hitman" crapfest from 1993. Charlie Sheen and Peter Fonda are in it, too, but Cage steals the show. He doesn't just chew the scenery, he swallows it whole and vomits it back up.

                                Huntsman - Winter War

                                Well, we have HBO right now coz of GoT and catching up on some movies.

                                The first of these was okay and the wife wanted to see this one (wonder why ) so watched it last night.


                                Enjoyed the heck out of it.

                                Really funny but not a farce. Characters were likeable and Chastain and Blunt? Sign me up!


                                Not gonna win any awards and I know it flopped, but it was a good fun fantasy that isn't trying to be LOTR or GoT.


                                Oh yeah... and no K-Stew in this one.

                                Thank God.
