  1. RIP Ricardo Montalban. You were never the weenie.
  2. Spidey's is good as far as I can remember (if you can forgive a bit of "why we're right" monologue for the pro-reg side that is way outta character for its speaker), but the Iron Man tie-in has what I personally thought was one of the more touching scenes in recent Marvel memory. Spoiler: Click here to viewTony disconnecting Happy Hogan from life support as the Lord's Prayer is juxtaposed over shots of him, Spidey and Reed Richards.
  3. SS, this is the story following Messiah Complex: Spoiler: Click here to viewThe X-Men have gone their seperate ways, with Cyclops pondering disbandment (and telling Tony Stark that they already have disbanded, as to avoid registration with the SHRA). Wolverine, Colossus and Nightcrawler went on a European road trip to the latter duo's home countries ,which ended with them captured by Russian authorities, who want to know how it is that Russia has lost all of its mutants on M-Day while the X-Men still have their powers. Angel, Cyclops and Emma Frost are in San Francisco, which has been transformed into its '60s-style counterpart by someone being called the Goddess. Angel, like the rest of SF, has been turned into a hippie, and Cyc & Emma have come to his rescue.
  4. 1. Captain America 2. The Thing 3. Deadpool 4. Wolverine 5. Luke Cage
  5. And that they did. Anyone manage to grab them?
  6. With Spiderman and X-Men already mentioned, I'm surprised no one brought up Spiderman and His Amazing Friends. On the other hand, I've just discovered that while their Hebrew dubs were some of my favorite intros as a kid, the original themes of Tazmania and Samurai Pizza Cats really sucked.
  7. Thumbsucker is a cute little vehicle that just worked on all cylinders for me. It's quirky and fun and touching and makes you think as well. I'm on quite a roll when it comes to movies, as I just watched Pirates of the Caribbean 2 yesterday and Superman Returns two days before that. Pirates is all-around fun (even if Knightly is over-exposed) and Superman was also enjoyable, even if because of my lower standards.

    Lion King

    Maybe it's because I was sleepless/grumpy at the time, but I didn't like it all that much. Apart from the Timon and Pumbaa stuff and stuff like Scar's "A monkey's uncle" line, I really felt like it lacked something.
  9. If the Oldboy remake comes out, I'll... lariat a cat. Or an unsuspecting guy-in-a-cat-suit, or something. Infernal Affairs, on the other hand, I haven't seen, and Scorcese/DiCaprio/MOTHERFRIGGIN' JACK always sounds interesting at the least.
  10. Israel-Switzerland, 1-1. Nobody cares but the token Israeli, huh?
  11. In addition to the first NewsRadio episode after Phil Hartman died, I'd put the David Strickland tribute episode of Suddenly Susan. Granted, Strickland wasn't Hartman and Susan wasn't NewsRadio, but it was just as emotional for me back then. Another emotional moment for me was the season finale of Desperate Housewives, when Bree finally breaks down. I know EWB isn't exactly full of DH fans, but that one was truly heart-wrenching.
  12. From what I could gather from the BabelFish translation, Trent and crew fled to their hotel as rain began to pour, and it was security that lowered the backdrop onto the NIN guitars in fear of the drawing storm.
  13. I'm blanking and I'm not gonna repeat what's been said, so this'll be a really short list for now: The Usual Suspects Star Wars (original trilogy) Sin City Dogville Cold Mountain City of God
  14. If anything, Goofy is a Mawg: "Half man, half dog- I'm my own best friend".

    Sin City

    Dwight is already dressed in time for the swirlie, TRS. He exits through the window, fully (well, as much as he will be) dressed. Mysterio2000X was right about the opening though. Still, Hartigan does have a naked scene in which we would've seen Bruce Willis cock, but lets just thank G-d we were spared that, shall we?

    Sin City

    Cool Along with To Hell And Back, which features none of the already-known Sin City characters (Delia notwithstanding), Dame is the only long story left (Family Values is really too short on its own, and Booze, Broads and Bullets is a collection of shorts), and was one of my favorites, even though anyone I've talked to has disliked the Dwight stories up until now. Clive Owen and Micky Rourke ruled here, so I'd love to see them again in SC2. Both surprised me as I've seen little of Owen in the past and none of Rourke, and I was very impressed with both. Bruce Willis was a great Hartigan, but Alba seemed wooden throughout That Yellow Bastard, and only somewhat normal in her Hard Goodbye cameo. She felt like a more grown-up Nancy there, something I was left without in TYB (And is actually normal with The Hard Goodbye occuring around 4 years after Bastard's end). Rosario Dawson is a superb Gail. I came in expecting nothing of the character and the actress for some reason, and was left speechless. I'd love to see her again in SC2 as well. Oh, and sweet little Elijah Wood now scares me half to death.

    Sin City

    This is the best movie I've seen in months. Definite recommendation.
  18. QT's directing about 20 minutes of the movie, that he is. Willis, Rourke and Owen should be superb badasses here. For me, this movie's a markout moment waiting to happen, and it's coming out in Israel a week after my b-day ^_^
  19. Count me in as well if we set something up online. I've been playing D&D for the better part of a year right now, and will probably be taking over DMing duties in a couple of months.
  20. First, I'd have to pick Dreamcatcher. It sucked on so many levels I think I tried to hurt myself while watching it. Also, being a big Jason Lee fan, I was embarassed to pass it off as "It can't be that bad if it has Lee in it" after someone else rented it. Fo' shame, Banky. Fo' shame. The honors of being the other king of suck that I care to remember goes to Ready To Rumble. If it wasn't for the WCW guys' acting, I'd have changed channels. It's probably the only time ever since I became a smark that I popped for Goldberg, whose acting was actually better than nearly half the cast.
  21. Israel pwnz j00. Even though we lost at the preliminary round. Damn that high-pitched squealing piece of shite.
