So, in the movie there was live ammo, but temperature sensors that prevented the robots from ever shooting anything with a body temp above a certain threshold. That said, it is a pretty crazy thought, that all those vulnerable guests would be carousing around real bullets and explosions and so forth. I'm guessing

When I saw True Lies in the theater I loved it, because I was 12. Now I can't stomach it. The weird striptease with Jamie Lee Curtis and the cartoonish Middle Eastern terrorists (the leader of whom is shot into a building with his own rocket, for crying out loud) just make me really uncomfortable.

I really thought The Good Thief was a great remake—probably just a tie with the original, though.

That movie is amazing and wonderfully scary. It's a movie with, IMO, one of the scariest sound effects ever employed (the "scream").

Like when he talked in a big circle of word salad and she managed to parse it all and still come back to NATO (the actual topic). It was admirable.

See now that does interest me. In fact, that sounds like the Sandman comics I loved so much. I enjoy shows that present the more "human" or relatable sides of mythical figures (I likes the show "Mulberry" and the book "American Gods" for example). I will say, I did like the scenes I saw with the therapist—honestly,

I think they could do it with Mark Ruffalo. Of course, that's partially because I'm positively enamored of him, but I also think he has the schlubby charm and the disarming presence that Falk had. I would kill to see them do a Columbo TV movie with him and a slew of great old character actors!

>do that bit where they all just start laughing for no reason.

I'll watch anything with Tom Cruise in it—partially because he picks great projects, but also because he's incredibly charismatic.

Rhys Darby is hilarious. Everything about this episode was pitch perfect.

Holy crap, I've been trying to remember the name of Shoot To Kill for a long time! I remember seeing it when I was a kid, but then it fades from my brain and my main memories of the film were of Kirstie Alley looking scared. I'm going to have to watch it again.

I clearly remember seeing that movie in the theater and about halfway through I threw up my hands and said "I get it, this has to be a joke." The film features a guy feeding himself to a lion for Christ's sake.

I loved the part where he brought in the actress to play the bar's owner. She nailed it. I would love to get John Patrick Shanley's opinion of the episode.

Wow, I thought I was haunted and a bit put off by "Suicide is Painless." It actually made me avoid watching M*A*S*H for years. Another thing that used to give me nightmares was "The Jar" episode of the mid 80s reboot of "Alfred Hitchcock Presents." It scared me for years.

I really love Blue, but he was a dick for calling her "insecure." He's not into her music, and that's fine, but don't make it personal, man.

Bring back Whodunnit!! It was so dumb, and it became kind of easy to figure out towards the end, but I really enjoyed it the summer it aired. The staged murder scenes alone were great for laughs.

Audition really is something. It's the only horror movie to ever make me physically sick, so for that reason it's earned a spot in my personal top 5.

And really, what ISN'T all fucking Pauly Shore's fault?

Saw this movie last night and I loved it. It was very sweet, and, in my opinion, well made. I think it deserves higher than a C+ (the laughs alone made it above average).

eh, normally I would agree with you, but this twist—at least the whole "Christian Slater isn't real" twist—was pretty obvious. In fact, I think it was intentionally obvious. Why else would Eliot break the 4th wall and say something along the lines of "You're going to make me say it, aren't you?" We figure it out
