So, in Irwin's world, I'm either (i) a racist, or (ii) an "asshole" for repeating a silly joke that you consider unfunny because it's been repeated many times. I'm an asshole for repeating a tired joke, that's where you've landed.

Smart move. You should use some of the time you've saved to contemplate how crying "racism" where there's no evidence of racism dilutes the word's meaning and undermines your ability to call out actual racism.

Oh, and now making fun of someone's name is RACIST. You really are a lame little attention-starved nerd, huh?

I have no idea what you're talking about, but shut your ass, Irwin, or I'll steal your pocket protector again.

You know, it's the only part I'm not crazy about. The standing in the corner thing is just one notch too literal.

Agreed. It's lumped into "found footage," but BW is successful for any number of reasons beyond that clever idea, and is a master class of horror movie restraint.

Doesn't it start slipping half-way through, cutting from pov to non-pov shots?

As Above So Below did a nice job with the set-up, and the scene of them scurrying over the collapsing bones was fantastic. By the time they got to the door to hell i was ready for some serious scares.

If you enjoy letting Goodnight Shamalamadingdong fart directly into your nose for over an hour. WHICH I DO.

And BWP is STILL scary. It's on Amazon prime, so the other day I queued it up when I had a minute.

Yeah, but once Cloverfield gets going, it's so damn exciting I wasn't too worried with the conceit, I just bought it.

Exactly. Blair Witch gets lots of love for the found footage, but it should get just as much love for not showing you shit.

One brilliant move in Chronicle was to have the boys manipulate the camera with their superpowers, thus divorcing the camera from the cameraman in a convincing way.

I saw it cold on sneak preview in the theater and shit my pants (figuratively). I was then about 25 and it was probably the scariest experience I've had in a theater.

Yeah, I think the main problem is that none of this guy's movies have been even slightly funny. I seem to recall people getting excited about Napoleon Dynamite, but that movies doesn't have a single laugh. Nacho Libre is even worse.

I'm with you, cousin. I love love love me some Lynch (I even love Dune), but I need something to hang on to, some connective thread to enjoy it. I don't like Derrida's Glas; not a big fan of Un chien andalou, and I can't get into this.

Jimmy Fallon IS the dick in the box.

So, it's the failed Superstar Limo ride from California Adventure?
