God Bless you Stallone...God bless you French people.

I just watched Rambo and man oh man that mother fucker has still got it.

Basically it's balls out, old school action and I wouldn't have had it any other way. It "Averages 2.59 killings per minute." which is epic.

I also watched a French film called "Frontier(s)" which is probably one of the most brutal horror/thrillers I've seen in a long while.

I don't think I've ever seen a female protagonist take such a shit kicking in my life, nor have I ever seen said protagonist proceed to kick as much ass as this movie delivers.

Why is it that French directors are so damn talented when it comes to giving up the goods?
I don't just mean in terms of sick, sadistic violence (which I love) but also in terms of great cinematography, story, characters and so on.

It was not perfect but it sure as fuck beats the pg-13 remakes these hollywood fucks like to keep putting out.

I post about movies too much.

Someone should pay me to be a critic. I guess I'd have to hate some movies though, so...The movie Southland Tales sure did suck.

I don't think I've ever turned a movie off, but I did this one. I told myself I'd try and finish it the next day, and then I didn't.

It lacks pretty much everything that makes films worth watching. Terrible.

I think you would be a fantastic movie critic. Yes. I just wanted to tell you that before going to bed!

I don't think you'd be much appreciated as a movie critic, D. They'd love you when you like something. But if they made shit, you'd kill them.

I don't know if that's good for business.
Well... I think it's good for business. But really, what do I know? I hardly ever watch movies, largely because about 90% of the time, they suck monkey nuts.

Geoff, it secretly hurts me that you don't like movies.

I think 90% is a bit high, but I agree there are a fuckton of shitty films.

The thing is though, I'll watch anything once.

Cause really, it's like two hours of my time at the most. I can deal with that.

As long as it is at least somewhat intriguing.

I refuse to watch Sex and the city though (series or the movie) because what I've seen of it very seriously makes me want to gouge my eyes out and never talk to a woman again in my life.
