Another new Indy 4 photo! Blanchett looks pissed!
Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. I'm about to run to a flick at the Santa Barbara FF, but I saw this hit the KINGDOM OF THE CRYSTAL SKULL fan-run myspace page and figured I'd share it with you good folks. Ford looks like ea beat down Indiana Jones, the commies look more Nazi-like than I expected (yay) and Blanchett just looks mean. Love the hair.
Looks to be a photo from an upcoming magazine spread on Indy 4. With only a few months until release I'm betting we start seeing some crazy market-flooding advertisement. Enjoy!

ADVANTAGE!

I'll have seconds, please
-
Still excited for this movie.
-
does the retarded soldier to the right have "US" on his jacket?
-
Cate Blanchett looks like the chick from The Departed there.
-
And it's missing the magic of the Raiders publicity photos.
-
Everyone I talk to, from classmates to workers to random people...either their first or second question is "IS SHORT ROUND IN IT??"....When you tell them Marion is in it thats AUTOMATICALLY the next question.<BR><BR> What a miscalculation by the studio. Short Round 4 life.

Can't wait!

"You expect me to get it up? at my age?"

He need only play his Shaolin Soccer character. Might have to de-age him a bit though.
-
Hang on, lady. We goin' for a ride...to Old Country Buffet.
-
Does it feel to anyone else like a bizarre dream that there's a new Indiana Jones movie coming out very soon? I can picture saying to someone, "Wow, I had the weirdest dream last night...There was a new Indiana Jones movie, but Harrison Ford was kind of old and Cate Blanchett played a goth...That's it, no more cheese before bedtime."
-
Aren't those guys wearing American uniforms?
-
She brought a knife to a gunfight.

-
brush against my groin anytime. Indy...not so much. The stubbles a deal breaker.
-
Is the soldier over Indy's left shoulder miming how much he wants to dab that tongue of his into the bone-daddy archeolgist's sweaty glute-itudinal cleft? I vote yes.
-
Unless thats the guy's name...."Yo, Mr. US, get yo butt ova here!"
-
I dig it.
-
or Miranda Richardson in the Crying Game.
-
It seems like Harrison Ford and Cate Blanchett aren't actually in the same dimension. Maybe it's just the way the photo looks from this generation. And yeah, they've got US military duds. Is this some secret joint mission the US and Soviets are in on? If they're in the same picture, that is.
-
Get it, New York Yankees...bring the hat.
-
...Spielberg has taken some directing advice from Sylvester Stallone, so now, "Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" will include a montage of Indy and Marion and all their romantic moments from Raiders while "Hearts on Fire" plays in the background.

So that's what Aintitcool has come to after all these years?
by Vicenzo
Taking pictures of Empire magazine and passing them off as news?
-
FUCK THE BEEF
-
Or U.S. Nazi sympathizers! Good grief! How more un-Nazi could a uniform look than mid-1900's era U.S. Army uniforms?
-
She looks so angry all the time. Probably stress.
-
ROFL!
-
i guess cate is playing Princess Valiant.
-
Seriously, her look KILLS.
-
Is that Mikhail on the left? Looks like him.
-
I'm all for a great INDIANA JONES movie (although I really wish LAST CRUSADE wasn't the tonal template for this film) but...man...Indy's looking mighty geezerly in that image.

C'mon man, you're making millions of dollars!
-
Are we sure that isn't Vera Farmiga from The Departed?
-
I liked Herc's "cranky old man" idea. Funniness. :)
-
Vagina.
-
"Doctor Jones!, Hot Dog!" comic relief gold.
-
that I wont be seeing this movie
-
Those guys ARE wearing US uniforms, but who says they're really US soldiers in the movie? You guys never saw a bad guy dress in the colors of his enemy?
-
you can see Mirajeff puking in the background
-
Shame!
-
what if we get some bear porn discussion going on here?
-
You know, the more I look at it this the more I feel like it's a part of an actual movie. This really does look like an actual moving movie shot to me, more so than any other picture released so far. I'm excited.
-
however, Mirajeff still is puking because he challenged Jarv to a fight and he knows he will lose
-
Russian soldiers, not American. That one soldier's gun-strap is hiding the S.R. after U.S. And for the acronym: Union of Soviet Socialist Republics
-
smart ass TB'ers kept talking about my Depends! Heck, half of us won't even MAKE it to that age. 2012, baby! It's ALL OVER 2012!
-
..this movie looks awful. I love me a movie with some hot blanchett in it...but this indy movie looks like steaming shit. she's about to go from oscar winner(Im not there) to 2 bit indian jones villian. damn you harrison ford.
-
NOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooo
-
Bored and tired? And they've committed the cardinal sin of making Cate Blanchett ugly.
-
with the bangs and the staring. *tee hee*
-
how they hanging this fine day?
-
Since the son role already went to Shit LeMadCow. <p> BTW there's no petition. Sorry for the inconvenience.
-
or is Indy's chest hair glowing?! Now THATS masculinity!
-
Last Crusade was better then the Temple of Doom, I just hope they don't keep driving home the point of how old he is and how this is his last ride and blah blah, i want this to be a real Indy film and not just a set up for Shia in future sequels.
-
Is that patchy from lost in the background? It looks like him... movie just got better...
-
heh heh heh...
-
They are masters of disguises.
-
You can imagine where it goes from here. Indy fixes her cable.
-
wishmaster!
-
This time with wire-fu!!
-
"i'm here to fix einen cablen." i love maude. remember when she says the line about whats-her-face being in the 'beaver picture'? jesus christ she's funny.

the two ruskies behind him are Pavel Lychnikoff (Deadwood) and A
by hegele
both are pretty cool character actors
-
woot
-
all over Indy's back. Not cool.
-
Thanks for that. We know he looks older now. We get it.
-
This is not going to be good.
-
No, Donny. Those men are Nihilists.
-
They should have made this ten years ago. Seriously, I hope my suspension of disbelief holds up.
-
Vera Farminga
-
I'm a sucker for a beautiful woman dressed all fascist and cold. We could take turns beating each other with a riding crop. And then fucking to Wagner.
-
So that's definitely him in the picture. Andrew Divoff is his real name, I think.
-
after all, all roads lead to donny, IMHO. poor bastard.
-
nice reference anyway..
-
"How about now? No? Well if you don't give the order to stab him in the neck soon, I'm just gonna put my sword down because my fucking shoulder is getting tired." -Goth Cate
-
That's the only way to show Indy. He is old. He apparently has been beat down (a tradition hailing back to Raiders, where he *spoiler* lost to the Nazis if you recall God ended up beating them with Indy tied to a pole *end spolier*). This makes me happy.
-
FUCK. Some of you act like you are the first to fuckin notice that a 65 year old dude looks old. No shit. The great thing about Indy is that the character is HUMAN. He gets hurt, he's a bit clumsy at times and yes he gets old. I'd be pissed if they tried to hide his age. His character has progressed in each of the previous movies and he will in KOTCS as well. This is as it should be. I think its badass to have a seasoned ol adventurer on the big screen. Its been a while and Lord knows the genre can use a boost. Oh yeah and Shia's a talented kid, Speilberg doesn't make bad movies (besides Lost World) and the Ravenwoods are back. Let's just hope the tone has a bit of Raiders in it too.
-
Ah Ha!
-
Now there's a fine upstanding cocksucker. Played fuckin' Blazanov, the Russian who ran the telegraph office in Deadwood. Mysterious messages from unknown fuckin' sources!
-
..in that photo...You vaginal warts need to come back to reality. Oh and Merrick, thanks for letting us know that Harrison is old. He SUPPOSED to be a fucking old geezer in this movie. An old man who can still kick ass. Ever heard of Rocky Balboa or Rambo or Unforgiven?
-
...really tied the room together.
-
That's what it seems like she's asking in that photo.
-
Wishmaster, bitches! <p> The guy supposedly speaks nine languages in real life, including Russian, which might indicate that those soldiers in the pic are indeed Soviet infiltrators. <p> Now let's hope that Divoff does the right thing after KOTCS and sets in motion Wishmaster vs Leprechaun. <p> Oh, you know you want it.
-
Naahh...it's Indy who looks pissed. And tired. And weary. And kinda ...glowing around the solar plexus region. (apropos: I think someone from the theraider.net boards took that picture) Mmmhhh...I like his look.
-
touche, embee. touche.
-
The story is ludicrous.
-
Just after watching raiders again, I think Ford looks great. A wicked picture, and Kate looks like shes channeling Queen Liz, SUUUPER pissed and deadly cold.
-
He's a good man, and thorough.<br /><br /> Ok, I'll stop now.
-
He doesn't look like a man in his mid fifties, unless, that is, youre talking about a guy who's been smoking and drinking pretty hard. The guy looks like he's in his mid sixties--end of story. Sheeesh, I must be getting old. <p>As for Indy being in his sixties, I dunno, I'm not sure I'm comfortable with it, either. I understand most people feel the character is allowed to be old and worn, but the films were all released within a relatively short time span and established his character as a 40-something who isn't quite over the hill, but surely on the edge. Now, twenty years later, the character is being established as this 60-something father, so I think its all right for people like me to think its a little weird. Again, this whole film just has that tacked-on feeling, and deservedly so, I think.
-
Last Crusade was a lazy rip-off of Raiders.
-
Damn she looks fine in an evil Soviet uniform.
-
"Done." (Wishmaster rips Shia's skull out from under his face, dips it in Crystal meth and shoves it up Indy's ass) Best Wishmaster kill ever!
-
Cannot wait to see this and to quote FerfMuckmeyer: OKAY, SO WHERE'S THE FUCKING TRAILER????
-
He actually looks pretty damn young considering. This movie will rock and yet I still don't think its hit me that a new Indy is coming!!!!!!!!!
-
I really can't make out what patch is on his shoulder, but to me the uniforms looks more Russian, than U.S. (and one patch looks like a red Lenin star patch, to me) Also, it makes more sense to me since Cate's character is a Russkie. So, either it's U.S. soldiers rescuing Indy, or Russian soldiers surrounding him while Cate gets ready to skewer him...
-
...seem less tacked-on is if this film is only part one in a new trilogy of Indy films. It would have a nice symmetry.
-
we have successfully infiltrated where none thought we could. i'll suck everybody's cock for a thousand dollars!<p>sorry...i think i might have just stepped over the line. it's coz i put too much sugar in my quad shot venti mocha choca latte ya ya.
-
Dude, give it up. My dad served in the U.S. army from 1959 to 1962 and had virtually identical fatigues as well as a cap like that. Those are American duds.
-
If this were the new chapter, or if there had been a series of films between crusades and this one, than nobody would be complaining. Don't get me wrong I cannot wait to see this movie, either, but the fact remains that this movie is basically Indiana Jones Rides Again.
-
The pic grows on you. First time I looked at it I burst into laughter. Then I realized that part of the laughter actually was directed at Harrison Ford's weird look, and the other part was sheer goddamned excitement. Because despite the rather ridiculous connotations, this still really looks like Indy.
-
I'm just gonna go find a cash machine.
-
give it to him Cate!Poor old geezer.
-
I thought we all agreed coffee should be black as a nazi's soul and that double mocha latte fairy juice was to be avoided? <p>Now, do you mean you'll suck for 1000 dollars PER dick, or is it the whole lot for a grand? Cause that would just be crazy, of course ;)
-
Those are US fatigues--NOT commie garb. The Soveit Union's fatigues were gray, not green.
-
did not know the DUDE is in Indy4.Now I got some hope for the movie.
-
PLEASE DON'T SUCK.
-
Another photo of the same image sans flash: http://tinyurl.com/2pzbvk
-
Cause technically, they were more like a drab brown/grey color, but in any case, they were deffinitely not Pine green like ours. At least, not in the time period we're talking about.
-
and for xi, coz i remembered, through a grapefruit soda-addled haze, our discussion last night. i'm actually drinking boylan's, which has more sugar in it than a miley cyrus concert. now, if i were tara reid, i'd charge only a thou for the entire lot! however, i have standards, plus a mortgage, so i'd like it if everybody paid their own way. cheers.
-
mehh
-
bag of dirty underwear for Cate?
-
Me, I'm drinking some Mountain Dew Livewire--which, I believe is hands down the most sugar-infested caffeine drink on the market, akin to liquid speed.
-
Fuck your trends!
-
the bottle says:"The Queen of Tablewaters"!hhhmmmm........queen...
-
it's good, bring it back!
-
Well ain't WE fansthy?
-
or, as 'cho calls it, 'ol' red'? that shit looks toxic. however, i cannot judge, as i have put many a rockstar beverage into my gullet and, therefore, am probably sterile. perhaps we should all switch over to bsb's fagola orange essence water and give our systems a break.
-
but the vending machine only had this livewire stuff available. Its not bad, actually, and I kinda like it, but I think classic Dew is the best, too.
-
I don't have a $1000.00, but I do have $100.00 to watch. Is that ok?
-
That red stuff is pretty frigging nasty, but the orange soda tastes alright, to me. I grew up on orange soda, so perhaps I'm biased, but it Orange Mountain Dew (aka Livewire) does hit the spot on occasion.
-
And is guaranteed to give your pee a much more tropical hue.
-
It's gone. Did the suits get to you, Harry? Say it ain't so!
-
Me, I'm an old fashioned kinda guy. I just drink Mountain Dew to wash down my Sour Patch Kids sandwiches.
-
Keep up the good fight!
-
you cheap girl you!;-)
-
I'm just barely old enough. That came out in '92 right? I had a some once. Tasted like regular fuckin' Pepsi to me. I think you can get a six-pack on EBay for $100.
-
that brings back memories of being a kid at the beach. *has a moment* moony, how dare you impugne (sp?) that my grapefruity sissy-mary soda is inferior to the dew? pistols at dawn, sir.<p>sure, i'll take a hundy, shank. i also need to pay the phone bill.
-
That's the second Indy image you've had to get from them in as many days...
-
or the horrid Blue Pepsi
-
Nothing is better than puffing on those bubble-gum powder cigs after a sour patch kids sandwich and a dew. Diabetes here we come!!
-
and cigs
-
Bubble-gum cigarettes! How could I forget? What the fuck were they thinking?
-
I grew up with days at the beach (lakeside and sometimes gulfside) and orange soda. Lets put some Jimmy Buffet on the radio and have our moment together.
-
in Germany!ay......I am living next to the homeland of RED BULL!
-
But Lemonheads? Those were the treat. Yeah, new coke sucked hard and fast, but it all paled in comparison to RC cola and a six pack of Sunkist orange. ohhhh yeah.
-
Well excited!
-
i have a very specific memory of sneaking candy cigarettes into 'the dark crystal.' it was the first time i snuck candy into a theatre and i was completely petrified i'd get caught.<p>sorry for sort of hijacking this TB down memory lane, gang. but i s'pose it fits into our raiders nostalgia, no? does everybody remember seeing raiders in the theatre? and do you remember what candy you ate? i also remember i brought a sandwich into 'jedi.' that was a big deal coz it meant shoving it under my shirt.
-
Batman already has two and I'm fairly sure it comes out after Indy.
-
who served who DIDNT hate the commies? I still cant stand russians to this day. Dont even get me started on a Putin rant or this TB will never end.
-
where is that from?Cant remember.
-
...complete with sharp object which dices men.
-
it feels... feels like a legendary hero has returned.. ahhh
-
and bunch of reeces peanut butter cup packages. I was the pack mule for my brother and sister and have always been able to smuggle just about anything into a theater.
-
...looks like he's gearing up to Butt-Fuck Indy! Look at him! He's rubbing his crotch, licking his lips & has a weird look on his face! My bet is Short-Round (Played by Burt or Ryan Reynolds or Dane Cook) is waiting just out of shot with a huge Bow & Arrow. Deliverance is the template for this movie, not Last Crusade or Big Lebowski!
-
Batman was playing and I smuggled in three foot long sub sandwiches and a case of beer.
-
I don't know where it comes from, but I remember this one time (I think it was the last day of school, I was in junior high or some fucking thing) the little convenience store on the corner was giving out free Jolt and parents complained because all these little kids were getting all hyper on the shit. I don't know what their problem was. I drank about 19 of the things and it didn't do shit to me.
-
snoogans.
-
Is that her arm below her head?
-
And I had a brick of grape Now and Laters stuck to the roof of my mouth for half the movie. :)
-
Those were the mana of candy.
-
that if you drank jolt and ate pop rocks your stomach would explode?
-
shit i love those coke gummies. i was on a jag for years where i would eat anything gummy, like, you could get a gummy rat or a gummy tire or whatever. right now there is a package of gummy haggis on my bookshelf. obviously, i have a problem.
-
...kept me from eating pop rocks as a child.
-
All I did was burp...
-
Timely posts, RED DAWN was on AMC this morning...remember the first time watching that back in 1985? I was in high school and got kinda freaked out :D
-
I was stationed at Sschweinfurt. I dunno about the evil empire being drilled into us, which it was, so much as the fact that I grew up with something of an objectivist mentality, so you can imagine my dislike of communism.
-
Great sets and locations are what we're seeing. Thank fuck this isn't another Star Wars prequel. Let us pray the 'Berg really has recaptured the feel of his '80s flick.
-
Yeah, its very, very cornball, but the premise is excellent. Let me tell you, when I first saw that thing I was at Ft. Brag, and all I gotta say is that that scenario was very, very plausible at the time. Discounting nuclear response, of course.
-
stuff like: "Based on this crappy photo/ press leak/ rumour I am not going to see Indy 4". I have to call bullshit- you know you'll be first in line on opening day for a new Indy flick.
-
Right on, dudes...I was in the Chair Force but got to see some Gulf War action at least :D You guys probably got to see far more interesting things. One of the things our OPSEC commander used to say..."the Bear is dormant, not DEAD" and that stemmed from 80's commie-hating. Still makes sense if you think about it.
-
Fuck! I'm dying to see one!
-
That's from a spread that has been out for two days here. I get that posted through my letterbox and it's headline news on AICN? You guys need to start digging up exclusive shit. Remember that? Not disrespect. I still come here daily to see what you got, but honestly? I'm mostly dissapointed at the moment. Maybe it's the writers strike taking hold so there isn't as much news about stuff in production, but lately? Dullsville. Is it just me? Also, Indy looking old? No prob. I like my heroes aging. Even when I was young I though young people sucked and had no right or decent perspective with which to comment on existence. Yar I'm cranky.
-
Yep, all the Bowl crap is really getting old, especially all of the local news stations hyping the celebrity parties and so forth. Like anybody cares. Just glad I don't live out in Glendale and dealing with all the traffic and clueless tourists!
-
And it is absolutely prudent to be distrustful of Russia in its current state today. I mean, come on, its still run by the same KGB personell as it was in the eighties, the media is still run through the government filter, and every important business function is government operated. Hell, the same antics go on today as they did in the eighties--just look at that poisoning nonsense that was going on a year or two ago, which was typical KGB assassination. <p>As for the action I saw--not much. I was the sole white guy in a unit that figured affirmative action was more necessary than quality, so our unit was a joke, but then, that was pretty common for artillery back then. To this day, i wish I had joined the Marines, but back then, I really needed the money and that MOS was going to pay me stat, so I signed for it.
-
That scene near the end, where the Mexican officer sees Swayze carrying Howell after they've both been shot stuck in my mind for 20 years for some reason. And he drops his AK-47 in disgust afterward...that right there could've been sequel material.
-
They should have stayed dead.
-
Did you guys also almost crap your pants when you found out we'd gone after Gadaffi? And didn't our F-111's have to fly AROUND Spain & Frawnce because they didn't allow airspace access? I just remember thinking how testicular-challenged those countries were, hahaha.
-
A few fights between me and some privates, clashes with a drunken first sergeant, etc. Basic soap opera style service, really.
-
I'm not jaded about the army or anything like that. I'm aware that my situation was somewhat exceptional. I mean, really, I nearly killed 4 guys when they tried to pull a rodney king on me.
-
that's Raidersque.
-
That's so awesomely amusing. <p> You have my condolences for all the celebrity party nonsense on the news in Phoenix. I live in the LA area now and half our nightly newscast on any given day is related to un-newsworthy celebrity stuff. It's actually pretty funny when I come back after being in some place like DC or Chicago and watching the news there.
-
Aw man...my sympathies! I heard even Homeland Security will be all over that area, so any kind of travel is going suck bigtime. I'm over in the Arcadia area, but the entire I-10 corridor will likely be crowded with tourists sniffing around. They are even closing the stock market down from the stadium tomorrow, ugh.
-
To the left of Indy, its clearly Dennis Quaid. You know its true. How did he get in there?
-
Really, I dont feel sorry for any of you. None of you had to endure the shame of being a died-in-the-wool chicago bears fan last year...
-
The fact that they even consider it "news" is what sucks! Some of the parties are for charities at least. But mostly, it's "hang out with celebrities this weekend!" as if your life's not complete unless you do such stupid things. Can't imagine what L.A. news is like.
-
I swear, I'm the world's worst typist. I know how these words are spelled--honest. Its just that when I type my brain kinda goes on automatic and I just type it all out and hit post, sans editing. Please forgive me.
-
All they do is glibly worship the celebrities every other minute. Imagine the E channel, and you have an idea of what all the news stations are like in LA. I had to spend a few years in Cucamonga, and it was the absolute pits for me.
-
I was just suprised to read that on AICN!wow,man(I mean that).I was once beaten by 4 guys,turkish guys....fuck!
-
If you bash it after you see it fine, but don't bash it when you haven't even seen a clip of it.
-
I'm a pretty good sized fellow, which is a check in my plus collumn, but really, it was a lot simpler than that. Never try to surprise a guy with an ASP baton and is capable of throwing you down a flight of stairs.
-
that about sums it up. The very first LA newscast I saw I just laughed b/c I couldn't believe it was "really" the news.
-
even though they were the ones that jumped me, I nearly got court-martialed for that one. I stashed the baton with a friend and blamed their wounds on falling down the steps. They tried tos ay I had a baton, which, as you know, was a no-no, but I just stuck to my guns, blamed it on the steps, and said that since they were the ones who jumped me, they are obviously not content with being beat and that they were trying to railroad me.
-
and stairs can come in handy!
-
Uh...no...that's me who should do that right now. Damn. I'll miss all the sunkist-mountaindew-war story-superbowl-partying-trash tv(and who knows maybe some milf-filf or production design chat as well) talkback hilarity.
-
i leave for an hour to sew a hat and when i come back we've resorted to violence! hang on, lemme get my blackjack.
-
are you from germany, travis?
-
I was on the second floor, two guys came up behind and two from around the corner. I knew them and knew exactly what was going to happen so I just whipped out old trusty and beaned the two in front with the baton, threw one down the flight of stairs, and when the other guy, who had some serious weight on me, tried to do the same thing, I just helled on and jumped and we both took a tumble. After that I was on him and it wasn't pretty, I can tell you that.
-
And, of course, served in the military, so I'm from all over. Mostly, I'm from the chicago and kentucky areas as a kid and new york as an adult, with a slew of places in between.
-
Ach so :)
-
in a fight.Often times it is over when you sit on the dude.It is a fucking shame that guys do that shit in the Army.I was just beaten up in an club.4 to 1 sucks.
-
ich bin nicht allein!
-
See, my first name is Travis, and so i reacted without even thinking. Sorry.
-
that fight sounds like it coulda come out of a Jack Reacher novel. Now I see why TerryMalloy wanted to make out with you.
-
I've been in quite a few fights, and invariably it goes to the ground in less than 15 seconds, which is where muscle comes in. Seriously though, I really was going to kill that guy after I had my hands on him. If it wasn't for a friend of mine who went to see what all the yelling was about, I would have had him. I got lucky all ways around, really.
-
a fine name SIR!;-)
-
Who is jack reacher, though? Is that like a Mitch Rapp book or something?
-
But why are <i> you </i> working? It's pretty late over in Deutschland? The home country of my employer.
-
And may I say, your name is very fetching also.

Is the Superbowl this Sunday?and it is late here 2.35am.
by travis-dane
-
Because I would get fuckin' creamed in a fight.
-
I don't blame him either. After everything he's been through.
-
believe it or not, I'm one of the happiest, likeable people you'll ever meet. I mean, yeah, i've gotten into a few rows, but its only cause I have a horrible superman complex, which gets me into a lot of trouble. <p>I just googled Jack Reacher, and I gotta be honest, as many books as I've read in my lifetime, and I am a voracious reader, I've never even heard of Lee Child. How out of touch is that?
-
He had a tie in Last Cruasde!
-
Jack Reacher is the main character in a series of books by Lee Child. Reacher's (at least in the first 5 or 6 books) an ex-Army MP recently out of the service who sorta wanders the US, seeing the sites etc, since he was a military brat who grew up pretty much everywhere but the US, so he wants to see his own country. <p> But in each book he finds himself involved in somebody else's dastardly plans and has to save the day, usually "getting the girl" in the process. Reacher employs his skills as a military investigator to unravel the antagonists' plans, which usually invovles a good plot twist and lots of Reacher using his military training to bust a few skulls, etc. <p> They're pretty good, fast reads. By all means, check out a copy of Killing Floor -the first novel sometime.
-
Maybe that explains a few things?
-
Oh, and no, I wasn't an MP. I was just in Artillery--nothing special.
-
I never heard of Lee Child until about two years ago when my friend lent me Killing Floor. I was hooked after that.
-
And even people I don't like seem to like me. It's weird. Maybe it's because I'm laid back. I don't know.
-
It always irks me that the guy is made out to be some super soldier who is capable of taking out Navy Seals at the drop of a hat, and all it seems he's had is a crash course in various boot camps (a few weeks here, a few weeks there). Let me be frank, in real life, a seal would reduce the guy to lawn mulch. Those guys are TOUGH.
-
I'm very, very laid back, but I just tend to pull the old "there's trouble over there! Go help!" routine, and, as you can imagine, its made my life eventful. Why, just a year and a half ago, a man intentionally hit me with his car ;)
-
and the ghost of Bruce Lee!No retreat,No surrender!
-
...so if somebody hit me with their car it would probably be enough to get me mad.
-
...with my secret weapon: humor. If you're like me and can't take a beating, make 'em laugh.
-
I know it!
-
the guy was stalking/instigating a scene with this girl at our school parking lot. I go out there, keep her away, and then he puts his car in gear, speeds up, and hits me head on. I was not a happy camper, lemme tell you! I had a sprained ankle for about a month and a half after that. If I ever get my hands on that guy...
-
and do the TREJO on some poor schmock!
-
He's also pretty laid back like me, but he gets in fights pretty often. He never starts them, but he sure as hell finishes them.
-
I've read a few Vince Flynn books with Rapp, but I think the Reacher books are better (the earlier ones like Killing Floor, Tripwire, Running Blind are the best). The first Rapp one I read was Transfer of Power. A co-worker told me it was like Child's reacher novels, but it felt "cheaper". Don't get me wrong, Jack Reacher pulls off some pretty outlandish shit at times, but to me it always seems more plausible given the background Child has given him.
-
I'm very laid back, and have a great sense of humor, if I do say so myself. I dont think I could even have hoped to become a teacher without my humor and attitude. But when I get into a fight, that fight has to be finished and right soon. Don't get me wrong, I'm not some super guy or anything like that, its just that I tend to be pretty durable (have yet to brake a bone in my life) and can take a few whacks, and my size and experience/training give me an edge, and I'm a lot faster than most people would think someone my size can be, so that helps out too.
-
if I remember correct?
-
are by a guy named Richard Marcinko. Most of it is pretty believable, too, from my understanding of BUD/S training.
-
Infantry. Been to Afghanistan a couple times.
-
wow (sincerely) <p> You might just be Jack Reacher. <p> On that note, I got to finish up some work and get outta here. Night gents! <p> Moondoggy2u, enjoy reading some Reacher.
-
We're getting one more Indy flick. It's about goddamn time! I wanna see a kisk ass Indy video game, and a decent comic book adaptation.
-
The new students, I mean. I still have students who try to backtalk me and so on, but I don't tolerate that sort of thing. Oh, I don't mind being informal, kids talking civilly without raising their hands and such, but obvious disobediance is something I don't brook. <p>As far as kids starting fights and such, I tend to break em' up pretty fast, much to the relief of our local security guard (who is in his mid sixties and with a belly as big as yogi bear's), but I have had a few kids seriously try to start a fight with me. Not many, but a few.
-
damn picture, at least wait for the trailer before you start shitting on it.
-
Sure the books are full of shit. Hell, legally speaking, he can't actually say word one about anti-terrorist tactics without getting thrown into the slammer. But the fact remains, that given his background and the genre (fiction), his books are more believable than most. Now, were you to actually treat Marcinko as a real life person, there is no way on God's green earth could he get away with all that stuff and still be alive, let alone walking and holding cups. But so long as you treat it as fiction, as I do, then they aren't half bad.
-
Indy movies. Doom was okay, but the storyline was too simple. Also, anyone who hasn't seen the Young Indy series should really pick it up.
-
got respect because he/she was an Teacher!but now,the kids pick fights with teachers.Fuck that.
-
is to avoid the obvious age problem. Also, keep in mind that he isn't really writing those books. They're all ghost written and packaged with his name. The only thing that makes them nifty, in my opinion, is that they freely use his real-life background and GENERAL knowledge, ie non classified, of certain strategies and scenarios and incorporate that into the fictional plotting.
-
But I knew of him and started reading the books. Thank god it was only later that I actually saw the guy on video tape because lemme tell you, the voice and manerisms in my head were of a much nicer, more gruff sort of man. When he spoke the way he did, using the familiar syntax, he nonetheless had a lot of manerisms that struck me as just some new-england type asshole. Still, entertaining fiction, if I do say so myself.
-
asshole or no, that guy used to be in charge of seal team 6, which in my opinion, commands a lot of respect from me. He's obviously capable and tougher than any guy youre likely to meet in your life, but he is most deffinitely not very likeable, from what I have heard.
-
thanks for the laugh, Xiphos. If it's a good read, that can make alot of difference in how easily I stomach a character with "outstanding" abilities. I'll have to read Marchinko and get back to you on how he compares to Jack Reacher novels.
-
though you seem like a funny bastard, so a rant could be fun reading.
-
But I think China is the bigger problem!
-
And even though there's an inordinate amount of self-stroking, he weaves some pretty damn entertaining stories deeply entrenched in realism. I recommend them for people who wish Tom Clancy books would tell them from a less boring, bureacratic perspective.
-
Thats the depressing part. Seems like only yesterday
-
Clearly, Blanchett must be a big fan of Julianne Moore's look in The Big Lebowski. Female Russian Nihilist: Do you like sex, Dr. Jones? Indiana: 'Scuse me? Female Russian Nihilist: Sex. The physical act of love. Coitus. Do you like it? Indiana: I was talking about my rug. Female Russian Nihilist: You're not interested in sex? Indiana: You mean coitus?
-
And Hitler let him live?
-
My ding ding dong.
-
you crazy Lebowski fans
-
Deep in the night I am looking for some Indy 4
-
occula, although we don't knwo each other, I hope you know I jest because I found the exchanges you and others had up there amusing.
-
"Indy, the Russians are not the issue here!"
-
Yeah, I caught your drift and I'm sure you are accurately describing that guy. Needless to say, I'm glad I never met him, otherwise I wouldnt be able to enjoy the dime-store fiction.
-

you know, maybe Ratner would be a better BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRF!!!!!!!!!!!! <p> 'burp' <p> Huuuuuuuuuueeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeehh!
-
Are blinding. A little holy water from the grail sure does shine up the torso. By the way, that "No, Walter. Those men are nihilists" cracked me up, Embeeduece.
-
Since, she's obviously supposed to be Natasha.
-
I want my family back!
-
I hope I'm wrong and the film is more like Raiders that the Last Crusade, but the still photos we have see thus far look like a cartoon.
-
Good stuff.... like Grenadine and Mountain Dew. Hey, where's the vodka?!
-
Kate Blandchet is in this? I smell boring. Well there goes all hope for me caring about this.
-
i take it all in good fun, 'specially since i'm the one who started it. hey guys, i just went and bought my 'hobbit.' it better be as good as you said it was. *snork*<p>beware teh chest hairage
-
...that people will look at Indiana Jones/Harrison Ford and say, "Man, he's looking really old" or something along those lines. Guess what? He IS old. No shit!
-
I thought Willis looked old.
-
...invading the USA. Cornball, but wow were people alarmed by it.

I WOULD BE 1,298 TIMES MORE EXCITED IF LEBEOUF WASN'T IN IT
by BringingSexyBack
You know exactly what I'm talking about. Don't you?
-
Thank God for Glasnost.
-
...but they waited too long to make another one. More films could have worked, but it's too late. The Last Crusade was the perfect way to end it, and now they just seem to be reaching and looking for a sure thing financially. Which reminds me, before he gets too old, Bruce Willis needs to hurry up and make a sequel to The Last Boyscout...oh yeah, go Giants!
-
Take it easy, boy. I'm a scientist... I'm a scientist...
-
Around my house we don't talk about LeMadCow. We like to pretend he doesn't exist. It's how we make it through the days.
-
He is so talented and versatile.
-
Panzerfausts and commie propaganda are no match for the Sword of Destiny.
-
as Senator Larry Craig's bathroom buddy!!!!!
-
The Beef was the best part of TRANSFORMERS. So that must really say something about how shitty that film is. But seriously, the kid did alright.
-
...Topher Grace was supposed to be the next Tom Hanks? What happened to that kid?
-
And we chant to Xenu to come take him away.
-
That ain't happening after Spidey 3 ... nice knowing ya, Toph.

In COCK & BULL WEEKLY.

You douches are probably home humping your copies of Shit Runner. I mean Balde Runner.

An sci-fi film acted out entirely by puppets made out of feces? Who doesn't love that shit!
-
(big toke) "Dooooctoooor Joooooonnnnesssss." <p> Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Bong <p> And don't claim you're not sorry you didn't think of it first.
-
better, though.
-
This just in.
-
Why would they release this one?
-
The movie comes out in three months. We should have a trailer by now.
-
I´ve been a very bad archeologist.
-
Sorry, just got back from Thursday night carousing and general mayhem. Which means I'm slightly buzzed, and you know what? I take that sorry back. What the fuck is this, an Indiana Jones talkback? Fuck all ya'll. Indy is a coffee man. Black. Bitches.

that thinks Blanchett looks really, really ugly.. in every movie? I guess that soldier on the right disagrees.

I think this film will help to set an example for older folks
by caruso_stalker217
They aren't useless after all. They can still fight Russians and blow shit up with bazookas. This is a good thing.
-
I loved seeing the older Rocky in that movie coming to terms with his life. I hope this Indy movie kind of follows that idea.
-
Marion ain't gettin any younger either.
-
...roast beef....
-
I also like wite wine and miniature horses.
-
but I think the pace in Temple is the best of the 3.
-
... geriatric? Looks that way. Except for Shia... and there's another problem, right there...
-
I saw Temple in theatre when I was 9 yo. And I just liked those over the top none stop action packed movie! Even at that age the "impossible-to-happen-musical sequence" made me smile when Willie finaly showed up in the small stage of the club (good cinematic humor). The beating heart on fire was amazing. Willie was a caracter that I loved to hate! I wanted so much to be a little older to follow Indy everywhere like Short Round did. I know this movie is a little too over the top and cartoonish for some people, but I prefere my Indy this way than the average humor and the almost funny dialog that runs all along Crusade, (and the irritating little music that Williams made that ruins a lot of action scenes). That said, Crusade is a good movie, I just prefer the others!
-
You're a lightweight, pal. You haven't lived until you've smuggled KFC into a theatre.
-
I possess...the Power of Perception! Beholddddddmumblemumble.
-
And I was surprised that I liked Crusade better. Neither compare to Raiders, but Crusade lacked that ANNOYANCE factor. Temple was incredibly loud, jabbery, annoying, the music was random and all over the place. Crusade was essentially a remake of Raiders, but it was a reverent remake, largely, capturing the tone of the awesomeness of history, and replacing the Ark with the Grail, and repeating the big Fight with Nazis on moving vehicles of Raiders. So I have to eat my words, and say that Crusade is better than Temple, by far. (Only awful thing is the "young Indy" beginning, with the unnecessary origins of Indy's liking for Hat, Whip and Jacket). The actions scenes in both Temple and Crusade are retarded, though, compared to Raiders. Nice thing about both .... real sets, real photography, no CGI crap muddying everything up. Oh, and Kate Capshaw was hot in wet pantaloons.
-
Harrison Ford is still Indy in both, but seems more himself in Crusade.
-
She was imagining all of that. Yes, it was an awkward scene.
-
I await Backlash
-
are you feeling OK? This isn't like you at all. <P>Now go and rewatch Alien and Aliens.
-
he needs to lay down
-
Anyone else think she looks a bit over the top? I know, Indy carries a wip but what is a soviet agent doing with a fucking rapier? The get up and the hair cut might be too much for me. We'll have to see of course, it could work very well within the genre...
-
it came out the same summer as batman i think. I was 11, first movie i went and saw twice on my own. Don't really get the dislike for that movie. Don't get what Lucas was talking about in that vanity fair article either about how the Holy Grail wasn't the best artifcat to use, etc. I thought it was great. Ok, maybe the ancient knight dude wasn't the best move.
-
YEs, we all love the guy but there sure is a similarity between the love themes in star wars and indiana j ones. No?
-
I am worried now that Frank Marshall stated that SKULL is 'closer in tone to CRUSADE' cause the latter was a lightweight, campy romp devoid of a decent villain, decent action scenes, and anti climactic. f you enjoy comical Nazis crashing their planes into tunnels, rat infested sewers burning up, the 'Junior!' shtick between Connery and Ford, Indy taking out three Nazis with one bullit, and a scaled down climax involving one armored and an old templar asking our heroes to the holy grail cup 'wisely' then I dont know what to tell you. My favorite was RAIDERS, the occult elements were great and the action was gritty and at times bloody (the Indy-thug fight in front of the plane) and the horse-vehicle chase, etc. TEMPLE OF DOOM had a memorable villain, was action-packed and dark, - its a much more replayable enjoyable flick than CRUSADE (which seemed like a smaller scaled, campier version than RAIDERS - although I enjoyed the River Phoenix opening). CRYSTAL SKULL is already 'locked' - the onyl thing missing is the John Williams score - lets hope Marshall was mistaken and the flick is closer to RAIDERS, but I have a feeling Spielberg enjoys his star-studded-lighthearted romps way more than the edgy flicks he used to make.

NO THANK YOU, FRAU THAT WILL BE ALL!!! *kisses portrait*

Seriously, who carries around a dueling sword in the 50s? And why has this not been a topic in the talkback yet? Wtf? In all seriousness though, I'm there first day.

Would you ever have thought that you would begin recognizing characters in major films because of bit roles in the best TV show ever (LOST)? Cool!

Soviets in disguise who mislead Indy and brought him into the hands of Natasha up there.

he's back

you little bitch

what's going on with Nodigs? I feel sorry for the man
-
perhaps if we ignore AssBraff08, he'll go away.
-
glad you liked the 2for2true stuff
-
and is slowly crumbling from the inside out. <p> In which case, I could feel bad for the guy too.
-
from yesterday. With MiraTwat singling out Jarvy. I haven't been back this morning to see if Twatyever came back, but you guys ripped him gloriously all afternoon yesterday.
-
it takes a toll on any man
-
we scared him off for a long time I think. He deserved everything he got though. He should have known better
-
anything that will surpass (maybe even live up to) the Airplane fight, followed by the Truck Chase from Raiders. I said this inthe other Indy TB just reently, but those scenes are, without any questionable doubt, the single greatest one-two punch combination of action sequences ever committed to celluloid.
-
to beastiality, to cannibalism, and to Cloverfield. so the bashing has stopped...for now
-
yeah, I'm not overly excited. I may just wait until dvd to see it. my level of excitement isn't all that high for it.
-
I feel cognitive dissonance even addressing you because you're an attention whore, but I can't let you call out a fellow TBer when he's not even fucking talking to you. <p> Just go the fuck away. Or stay. The sad truth is no one give a shit about you here. <p> But stay and prove my point if you want, though.
-
I just can't wait til the day he tries to say something important to one of us or the mods, and no one will listen to him because he's just a troll.

if you know what I mean...

Don't try to make fun at people standing there with your pants still down. Walk away and wait awhile, then come back and pretend nothing ever happened. Don't hit people while you're lying down.

it's just glovedone, the dumbest bitch on AICN
-
why don't you relax and enjoy your special time receiving some TOTAL FUCKING DESTRUCTION?
-
I missed you man!
-
I love that guy
-
a big baby who used to blow up frogs with firecrackers is now so fat the can't leave his mother's bed. thanks to his pent up sexual frustration, tiny pecker, overwhelming body odor, and sky high blood sugar, he decides to have a little fun by harrassing people on messageboards while using the name of his fantasy gay boyfriend, Braff. all seems like fun and games until he runs smack into TOTAL FUCKING DESTRUCTION.
-
I love WHEN THAT GUY shows up. But if it turns out that he looks like Natlie Portman, I'd totally make out with him.
-
did you hear about that gay porn movie with Zackkk Braff and Glovedone/braff08? It's called "Guardin' Taint"
-
that's what Braff08's mother was trying to do before i slipped her the stiff rod of TOTAL FUCKING DESTRUCTION.
-
We still doing that? No? Dammit.
-
did you know that i have a tattoo on my penis? it says TFD. but when i get hard, it then reads TOTAL FUCKING DESTRUCTION.
-
that's what TFD's bringing to us today, courtesy of AssBraff
-
If you post three posts in a row, you have already disregarded the opinions of others and think you're the shit just cause your spasms make you ejaculate, and technically that's not jerking off.

He isn't THE shit, he just is shit. Actually his mom took a huge dump one day, and there was glovedone/braff, a little turd baby.

"come on, sweetie. Just pull your should strap down a little more. A little more. Just do it for me. Please?" <p> "Oh that's beautiful. Now, let's try it with you pulling your pants down a little. Past your hips. No, a little more. Please, for me? Come on, I'm your Father."
-
(yay)??? Why is that a good thing?
-
to be as easy to root against as the Nazis were. Given that "the Bear is currently hibernating" (as someone said yesterday), it's not so acceptable now to look at them as the kind of nemesis that the Nazis are viewed as post WWI through WWII. <p> For some people, if the bad guys here (Soviets) remind them of the Nazis from the previous films, then, i guess, the theoru is that the film is reusing elements they liked fromthe original Indy films. <p> I don't know if that's really it, just my theory. Soviets make sense as a rival faction, but that's about as much as I care that they are in it.
-
"You vill fuck me Dr. Jones, or you vill die."<p> "Whatever, sweetheart. I'm almost 70 years old. It doesn't matter."

it's at mtv - indy standing on some crates in the guvmint warehouse, looking smarmy! so niiiice...

...and come off like 'Captain John Mason, Special Air Service..retired, of course. I love the idea that this is the *real* end to the James Bond saga. I'm not sure that Harrison's got that much left in him. After all, Sean's still getting drunk and punching out his neighbours!
-
how's the sewing today?
-
i have blown off sewing today, when you run your own company you get to procrastinate jobs until the last possible second. instead, i am watching 'the matrix' and drawing. hope your afternoon is as pleasant as mine!
-
Yours are better anyway!<p> I don't have cable, but if they're promoting Indy on MTV at all it's a little peculiar, since no one who grew up with Indy could possibly be watching MTV anymore. It's complete crap. What, are they trying to target 11 year old girls for the movie? Guess so. But good luck.
-
I just closed the window otherwise I'd paste the link. <p> Ok, fine. here it is. <p> http://moviesblog.mtv.com/?s=indiana+jones <p> Just remember to remove any spaces. ;)
-
..but this "villain look" is the best thing ever
-
I dunno, seems kinda par for their course to rpomote a big summer tentpole flick. Besides, it has Shia, which is totally mTV crowd. And, SS/GL and company know they need to "reintroduce" the man in the hat to a younger generation who was too little to appreciate him (if they were even born yet) when he was last on the big screen. <p> But, I admit, it IS weird to see Indiana Jones on an MTV website. Perhaps I'm getting old, though.
-
most of the time....or, so I hear. <p> Though with every badge, there comes a burden, so I know it can't always be Matrix and grapefruit soda. ;)
-
the EXECS at mtv are of an indy age. that's why they would give it the time of day. i'm sure they know most of the viewers aren't old enough to drive, much less know about raiders, but i would bet you dollars to donuts the programming execs are like 'oh yes, indy 4, me loves!'
-
Usually I don't care, but when it fucks with somebody's name it just doesn't seem as forgivable.
-
you are so right, finx. you see how i did that with your name? you like?<p>yes, being the boss is both a burden and a blessing. i am, however, the most insubordinate person i know, so i can never go back to working for the man again...i'm stuck with the rough road of running my own business. so, when i use the company card to buy grapefruit soda, i'm the one who gets dragged into the boss's office. *sigh*
-
which is funny, coz it has 'poo' in it
-
I do believe self-discpline will be the death of our society. And, I'm really not helping because I think I've typed more on this website today than I have typed for work. <p> I'd like to chalk it up to being "friday" and all, but honestly, I spent a good portion of yeterday like this. Perhaps it's because I know my deadline is far enough out that I have time to cram at the last minute, I dunno. <p> Are you a one-woman shop? Do you make costumes for all kinds of productions ro primarily theater or movies/TV? (I'm from the finance world, thus my insight into it.)
-
"poo-flinging monkeys" <p> "poo-flinging flying monkeys" <p> um....<p> Well, I'm sure there are others, but they escape me at the moment.
-
poor proofreading strikes again!
-
remember that was the punchline from a joke in junior high?<p>i am sort of a one-woman shop - i have a crew that works off-and-on with me. i do costuming, sets, graphics, concept illustration and a host of other egotistical shit. since you're a finance guy, can you get me a bunch of money so i can shoot my own project? i promise to make you an associate producer! *wink wink*
-
sounds like a cool gig. I bet you don't even have to get dressed for work if you don't wanna (well, except if you have your crew there...unless you're all cool with that sorta thing.) <p> Unfortunately, I am in real estate finance (mostly multifamily) and can't directly help on the production loan. But, if you know someone who owns an apartment building/complex and will refinance it to let you use their money for moviemaking purposes, I might be able to get you decent pricing for the loan! <p> Actually, I'm one of those guys who has been a perpetual writer for years, but has a hard time finishing things. I've done a year of screenwriting classes, too, and pretty much finished one script, and started countless others, but I never seem to find enough time to finish before life interrupts. <p> That said, I still have a dream of selling my writing, quitting this ubernasty corporate lifestyle and being a successful, working writer. <p> Ah, to dream.....
-
don't worry, you'll finish something sooner or later. so long as you got it in you, you can do it. my friend's grandfather just published his first novel at AGE 98. life has a way of getting in the way, but sometimes you just have to look for a chink in the armor, you know? it'll happen. aren't i positive today!
-
it's not often easy to come by around these parts. <p> I'm going to try and buckle down this last hour at the office. I....can....close....the...browser! <p> So, have a good weekend. Nice getting to know ya a bit. See ya 'round the TBs.
-
i started last night, thx for asking. man, that book is boring. BO-RING. i mean, it's all about, like, hobbits and shit. what have i gotten myself into? AHHAHAAHAH i'm so funny i crack myself up!!<p>on an entirely unrelated note, i got my 'blade runner final cut' in the mail today (next week's class is all about blade runner) and it's like watching an entirely different film. wowza!
-
it will give you that weird feeling like 'have i ever seen that scene before, or is it just that it fits so well into the film that i only THINK i've seen it before?' verra weird. ps did you see the new indy pic i mentioned earlier?
-
now what did you go and do that for? do you have a kid who's giving you problems? lock 'em in the bathroom, that's my solution. *tee hee*<p>a 'reverse occula', i'm even more flattered than when finx called me 'poo-cula' earlier!<p>i think one of the things we all like best about harrison ford's old characters is the smarm. it's why han solo beats luke skywalker, luke is just whiny but solo is smarmy.
-
How's it hangin?
-
i have decided to make annoying nicknames or abbreviations for everybody. everybody COOL, that is.<p>xi, you must be bored outta your gourd!
-
again
-
hey xi, speaking of smarmy 80s movies, today i went to amoeba records (the greatest record store in the wurld) and scored some really bad 80s dvds, chief among them: 'campus man,' the worst movie made about arizona, evar!
-
It's too bad you can't reduce "Terry Malloy" to something smaller than "t". That would be impressive.
-
she won't even cross it
-
thx klo. i'd call you 'k' but that reminds me of 'the english patient' and that is just ghey.
-
No one even talks about movies out there. It's crazy.
-
either that or Men In Black, both awful
-
It had Sayid in it!
-
you don't have 'poo' in your name. *tee hee*, i said 'poo'
-
i fucking bought that today too!?! it's my second favorite 80s film ('better off dead' is the king)<p>except it's not about arizona. that gives 'campus man' a bit of something special. however, it doesn't have a nice titty shot at the end like 'jootg' does.<p>i like the english patient too - it's a very well-done film - but t, you must admit it has a bit of gheyity to it. but sometimes we all need a little ghey in our lives.
-
but Kristin Scott Thomas and Juliette Binoche even it out for me.
-
Both look beautiful. I'm assuming you are talking about Arizona because you live there occula.
-
sayid looking pretty good plus rafe fines back when he was a handsome motherfucker.
-
i live in LA, you will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy.
-
again, i'm weak sauce with the o'nite crew. *sigh* a friend's coming over to hang out and i have to clean up this hellhole i live in so i don't embarrass myself too badly. gents, keep it real!
-
Being a burn victim is not a pleasant experience.
-
Have a pleasant morrow.

You are a NM denier!

I think the problem with sequels is that everyone involved becomes self-aware. Whatever magic the first film had is dissected, analyzed, and attempted to be duplicated. But the identification of "what worked" is often wrong or certain parts are exaggerated. So the magic is killed. The Last Crusade, while an entertaining flick and a great ride, cannot compare to Raiders. I hope enough time has passed and the filmmakers/actors have matured enough to be able to try to create something new out of the old.

I am reading the entire history of lost right now to remind myself what happened. I am a geek. No doubt about it.
-
That is rad. I missed Lost. I waited for fucking nine months, and I missed it. Now I know what a woman feels like when she's past term. Yes, I am that presumptuous.<p>Xiphos, I'm glad that you will at least respect the evil mojo of Darth Hoody. Did you see my "Leave Belichick alone!" youtube video?

gotta get up at 5 a.m. for a trip. Peace out.

Is your trip going to be put to film with a plane in the background of a transparent map with red lines detailing your progress? Xiphos there are several Leave Belichick alone vids, but only one that isn't stupid. You'll know it when you see it. I will have to check out the Ballad.

By that I mean, a movie with robots disguised as lions run by midgets needs to concentrate more on the sexual antics of some teenaged nerd-weenie.
