Not about the film, but I'd like to direct you all toward the comments section of the AV Club's original review of "The 25th Hour". It's… one of the strangest things I've ever seen

Oh good, I was searching for the comment that brought up that gloriously fucked up 3rd act, where every random goon, Elwes, and Flemyng dies in the most gruesome way possible

"…gonna go down to Marie Callendre's, get some pie MMMAAMMMM good
PUT IT ON YOUR HEAD!
your tongue'll slap yer brains out tryin to get TO it
y'intRESted?
JER?!?!"

"…OOMPA LOOMPAS…."

…You have a mustache

Okay, so now that we've got legitimate homophobia out of the way with Freebie and the Bean… What do we make of Nightmare on Elm Street 2? Subversive, dark satire, or actual homophobia?

Wondering why there isn't a Zoombinis movie in development. The marketing team for this film would be going nuts over it. And really, the world just needs more Zoombinis

You mean the first Lego Island. I couldn't even get #2 to load properly

Is this Moron Number 1? Put Moron Number 2 on the phone

Yeah, but that was the UNDERMINER! And guy who takes a leaf blower to the face! Maybe it's the quality, not the quantity of his lines here

Digression: I'm really missing John Ratzenberger here. He's only had one line per each of the past three movies (Cars 2 was a generic "What a happy ending" line; Brave had him asleep at the mic; and the Abominable Snowman just pops up for a few seconds in MU).

Not only that, but Sam Jackson gets a solo credit in the opening. The amount of time his name appears on screen might be longer than his actual screentime

Jazzercise with Wolves!

Well I guess that means it's time for me to do my daily YouTubing of the last 15 minutes of the movie

Favorite quote!

Bring Harvey Fierstein back, problem solved!

Dunno about the dry run, I felt Pixar shot its wad on Cars 2 and now it has kind of a mess on its hands

Between that and Eraser for a random role, you don't want to risk him getting up and punching you in the face (through the phone?)

To be fair to Bruce, he got to (a) make a yo mama joke and (b) get tortured to death (?!?) in his scene, so that's kinda cool for getting cast in a kiddie-merchandise flick

And then they dance to Van Halen?
