Random movie thoughts

Yeah, I watched it a few years ago and enjoyed it as well. Three was pretty good as well. Two was just awful.

I still find #1 very enjoyable, probably because Hunt wasn't a superhero in that one.

Uh... well, he jumps off an exploding, crashing, flying helicopter onto a moving train, in the middle of a tunnel nonetheless...

Yeah, I've always viewed the "at least 1 was relatively restrained" as complete baloney. :p

And II definitely knows what it is. It goes all out with the stylistic flourishes, the dominance of the score, the overall impressionism.
 
Birdemic knows what it is too. :p
 
Big deal. He only gave one-half star less to Pay it Forward.
 
Im looking at the back of the Boiling Point dvd cover and it says "3 and a half stars, Boiling Point sizzles. Riveting, swift and sassy." Why would they boast about 3 and a half stars though? I mean, if it was 4 and a half stars, okay. But 3 and a half stars and they boast about it? why not just say "Boiling Point is pretty good i guess. Riveting, swift and sassy, whatever that means. It has its moments, now hork over the dough please"?.
 
For me, the best part of the M:I II DVD is the MTV parody with Ben Stiller as "Tom Crooze", Tom Criuse's stunt double. I love M:I III though, J.J. Abrahams FTW. :)

isn't 4 stars the industry standard? kind of like eberts "2 thumbs up" - AFAIK, most of the time there is nothing higher than 4 stars when it comes to movie tagline reviews.
 
Well thats a horse of a different color. My mistake. I still dont know exactly why they used the word "Sassy" in there but i did hork over the dough. :D
 
Hork...
4. v
to steal or pilfer, usually pertaining to items of little value.

Rogue stole the money to pay for the DVD.
 
I stole money out of my own wallet and ate it, then i horked it yes, because it only said 3 and a half stars, there, you satisfied now? Just because i dont live on venus like Tvs-Frackin-Frink doesnt mean i have to fork it, so fork off for fork sakes. :p
 
Didnt want to say Uranus, and i wasnt going to say Mars either cause that would be hogwash.
 
I...but...

Got me.
