Whenever there's active promotion on the part of somebody else, whenever I see somebody all dolled up for a fancy photograph and someone's handing out flyers or whenever there's active promotion for something like that, as an imposition on my day, I hate all those people and I want them to fail. I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

He really is. I love him with all my heart. He's also man enough to sit on the hot car in August. The guy is legend.

I honestly don't know how I feel about this 4th Matrix film being made. If they can do something fresh like the original, then cool, but if they continue down the path of the previous two - then why bother?

[E.H. Ruddock]

Seems like in almost every spy or political thriller movie, there is some kind of clandestine meeting at the national mall in D.C. Seems like a smorgasboard for opposing governments/spies.

Pretty sure this was made fun of recently in a show, maybe Good Omens?

I tend to shy away from remakes/reboots in general. There are some that are great though. Just as a general concept, my knee jerk reaction is to be suspicious of them.

But now I'm seeing across the WWW that Jason Mamoa wants to do a "Twins" remake with Peter Dinklage and I just... I think I'm in love.

We just watched Junior and I think we should have gone with Twins instead. Wow that was terrible.

The fact it was used as the cover art for How Did This Get Made for so long should have been a clue, I think.

yeah i'd watch that.

Also the Richard Linklater version of Bad News Bears is great foulmouthed fun.

I've never watched that BNB but I've always wanted to. I should check that out.

If Star Trek counts, I'd say that's a pretty great one. Also dig a lot of the ones you mentioned, trag.
