Hey LV, I'm also a big fan of movies based on historical events but that are embellished and over the top with the story. Have you seen "The Eagle"?

I have not. The trailers made it look pretty rough. But after seeing How I Live Now (same director), I kind of want to see it.

I enjoyed it. Just for the fact that if even a small amount of it was true, that is pretty cool.

Have you seen Logan's Run, LV? Thoughts?

Yes. I think it's middle-of-the-road, but Peter Ustinov's performance is one of my all-time favorites. That guy is awesome.

It sure is really fuckin' weird, though. I would have loved to see Nicolas Winding Refn's remake come to fruition.

I'm watching Fearless Vampire Killers for the first time tonight.

Have you seen Leprechaun 4?

The Leprechaun series remains an untapped venture for me at this time.

LV--As a teetotaler, are you especially disappointed in me?

All I can say is that the sweet visual intoxication of FVK is far more satisfying than any liquor.

i can't envision a scenario in which a teetolaler who likes the phantom menace doesn't end up going on a murder spree

What are your thoughts on Dune?

I've never been able to get through it. I watched the first 30 minutes or so once and found it unbearable.

I had a very similar experience last night with God Only Knows. Except I made it through the first hour. And I wouldn't say it was unbearable, but it was dull and useless. But (even as a straight man) Ryan Gosling is fun to look at, I suppose.

I assume you're talking about Only God Forgives...

Wasn't there talk of a remake? I always thought the story had so much potential but yeah the movie is difficult.
