Here's a (very much not) fun drinking game - see how long you can watch that Glenn Beck clip before you shut if off and wonder where you left the scotch. I made it about five whole minutes!

I liked that intense car chase / shoot out scene in the hills. But that movie had a bad case of Writer-Strikeosis.

That's a very valid and interesting point. I don't know if you saw John Carter, but there is a lot of super violence in it, including a scene where John loses his shit and basically massacres a whole army of alien dudes  - - but this is cool, because their blood is blue.

Can I get a link to that, Morg?

It was about ten seconds ago

I remember the first time I ever heard of Paul Gilmartin

I feel like the over-all tone of the film was the main thing that made so many critics feel it should have been an R rated film (which is understandable - the thing looks, moves, and feels like a horror movie) but any punches pulled (just-offscreen gun violence) are IMO just there so they can double down in other…

We don't need to go back to Red Dawn, here, either, I'm talking about more recent examples like Taken and its ilk, Live Free or Die Hard, Skyfall, Dark Knight

Don't assume that the passing of this milquetoast movie rules out that possibility. This is the land of the adaptation and that's still totally possible.

OH!

I want to go to there

Just saw him in Django. SPOILER ALERT

Newsroom 2: OWS, the Tea Party, some ladies punchin' dudes a lot…

First Sucker Punch, and now this? Man, some real stinkers coming through Watch This lately. Well, that's my two cents - the only other related comment I could have is to recommend this episode of How Did This Get MAde?

remember, kids: don't feed the troll

OK guys, help me out. Is that Marnie from Girls in this video, or just a look-alike? (BTW her name is Allison Williams and she's apparently news anchor Bryan Willaims' daughter, weirdly enough.) The Maybe-Marnie in question is part of the spandex-clad bizarro gymnast trio that features throughout the last half of the…
