    Sheesh, I'm not having much luck am I... I was trying to make a joke. Whilst I did find the film utterly stupid, I was trying to make out my disbelief was for George Clooney being cast with a Maori tattoo. I did set my rating... but even so I thought it was a pretty straightforward statement? Obviously I should not be trusted to attempt humour after twelve pm. :laugh: I'm going to crawl away and sulk now. :rolleyes:

            Never felt the urge to see it. Saw Res. Dogs though, that was okay at the start - the best part was them walking along to the title music - but after that it went downhill (possibly due to the lack of a storyline or any good actors). Great chance to hear some really classic seventies hits though! :-D

                    Now I am not one for unwarranted swearing, but What The F-ck?! Did I just see what I think I just saw? Some things just don't work - not even in cinema. Did they honestly think they could get away with it? Of all the things they could have done, out of all of the outright wild and preposterous ideas out there in the world, not least in Tarantino’s, why oh why did they just put that in front of my eyes? I mean come on for Christ's sake! George Clooney with Maori tattoos?! :wtf: :wtf: :wtf:

                        I loved From Dusk Till Dawn. It was exactly it's "fuck the norm" attitude that got me going. I laughed, and laughed, and laughed, and laughed throughout the entire movie. It was brilliant. I was shocked but I was grinning. The sequel sucked but then it was low budget. This bit is not safe for even many an adult but the best bit in FDTD was in front of the Titty Twister when the proprietor listed all the types of *cat* you could get in side. I laughed, and laughed and laughed and laughed till my sides ached. Never before in mainstream cinema had I heard something like that on the screen. I laughed! Classic movie and sucks to anyone who feels the need to try and "educate" me into not liking it. You don't have to like it.

                                David Wulff wrote: possibly due to the lack of a storyline or any good actors Ok David. I have discovered the root of all your Cinematic Issues*. You go into movies like FDTD, Res. Dogs, Pulp Fiction, Black Hawk Down and you go in expecting drama, intrique, oscar performances and life changing subtleties. You go in expecting The Piano Teacher or Beautiful Mind. Let me help you: Don't The aforementioned movies are about fun, about shock, about bucking the system, about flipping the finger to authority. The director gives more of a toss about the gaffer on set than his potential audience. He is actually thinking "har, har, those fools, they actually pay me to make shite like this." And we love it. Those movies are not about making you a better person or enlighting you on historical fact. Have no expectations, like me, and you will come out grinning like Uma Thurman with a syringe up her butt**. * PC for fucked up head problems ** OK so that was in Plump Fiction and not Pulp Fiction

                                  Flipping brilliant film. Not to mention that it has both Salma Hayek and Juliette Lewis in it. :)

                                      I had a look at that Elmo thing, very strange, although my mate was even more confused (he was in the room unawares until the song came out of the speaker next to his head) Although the "Peekabo" on on that site is just as entertaining.

                                      "Where would you rather be today?"

Did they honestly think they could get away with it? Of all the things they could have done, out of all of the outright wild and preposterous ideas out there in the world, not least in Tarantino’s, why oh why did they just put that in front of my eyes? I mean come on for Christ's sake! George Clooney with Maori tattoos?! :wtf: :wtf: :wtf:

                                        Great film. I guess the only problem now is that if you haven't seen it yet it's getting increasingly difficult to not already know the plot twist (hell, I've seen it given away in a tv listings magazine) When I first saw it I had no idea what was coming, and neither did anyone else who I was watching it with, which meant there was an almost symultaneous "What the f.." from us -- Help me! I'm turning into a grapefruit!

                                          Settle down Beavis. It was an ok flick. I liked how it changed from a kidnapping story to a gory vampire story in under 2 seconds. Just don't see the sequels. They're not good at all, and I doubt Tarantino had anything to do with them. :( David Wulff wrote: George Clooney with Maori tattoos Oh, isn't he just gorgeous? :rolleyes: :-D -- we dance to the sound of sirens and we watch genocide to relax we dance to the sound of sirens we are the heroes of self-deception
