To be fair to my junior high school buddy idiots from whom I first heard this drivel; the idea is that someone OD's on alcohol or pills, their stomach is pumped for that reason, then the semen is discovered incidentally. No one is thinking a doctor went "Wait! What if there's some jizz in there?! Prep for gastric…

You're thinking of Itchy, the dirty old one.

Cheeky.

True.

Biology all works different now.

I'm hoping he just remakes both into the same movie.

Butts only, and character should be punished. No second screams. Head-caving, impalement and flaying accomplished with sound effects only. No incest!

For me, that's still more about justice than revenge. After all, Warren is not damaged, there's nothing really to revenge. It's about punishment, which is more the purview of justice. And whether it happened or not, or happened that way or not, it's still one of H8's overlapping depictions asking "Is this justice?"…

"Go-nowhere?" Really? Mannix's decision on how to take sides in the middle of that savagery is the crux of the movie for me.

There is a lot of justice, of different flavors, on display. But you're right, there's basically no revenge, at all: no one has a dog in any of the fights. The one opportunity for revenge is quickly and immediately extinguished.

I actually didn't get much out of the movie of what reviewers are calling the central theme it: "America's (broken) promise." I think if you stop focusing on "But what does it really say?" it's a better movie and a more personal one about the reconciliation of two seemingly irreconcilable men over the nature of…

I enjoyed it a lot more when I stopped looking for an explicit message and considered it more a story of two seemingly irreconcilable men able to reconcile. The context is heavy with pondering the nature of justice (I don't actually think it has much to do with "the promise of America"), but it doesn't try to "answer"…

Well, I don't really buy that westerns "went" anywhere and are now making a "comeback", but on the other hand: superhero movie hegemony stretches back for longer than a single year; superhero movies are dominated by closely similar Marvel or Marvel-formula movies, while these "Westerns" aren't really that similar to…

Your description makes me feel lucky to be alive.

Oregon, but not Portland.

There actually used to be a pizza place in my town which brought you the pizza in a reusable carton, which they opened and gave you the pizza on your own plate/pan/cutting board/whatever. It was great because when you were done with the pizza you didn't have a big box to either sneak into the recycling (my recycling…

Elsewhere I suggested Black Jack Davy as well.

Are you familiar with Liz Phair's version?

Alice Cooper, "I'm Eighteen"

If my seventh grade symphonic band could do it, Feist can do it!
