    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:

            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

                            Cheeky... Anyway I am forcing myself to bed now because this is starting to get out of hand. I thought I'd overcome this level of activity two years ago, but tonight I've even managed to scare myself! :eek: G'night. :zzz:

                                  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.

                                      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.

                                          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

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
