Is "genuflects" even a real word? by OBSD	Jan 21st, 2008 06:21:45 AM
Actually it is, but it's an early Christian word pertaining to worship, not a Hollywood executive bullshit word meaning "genuinely reflects", which is what this dimestore PA moron thought it was.
genuflect means to lower oneself as a sign of respect by bending by Dr. Sid Schaefer	Jan 21st, 2008 07:02:37 AM
from latin: 'genu' (knee) and 'flectere' (bend). there is no other use. submitter is an asshat.
by bending one's knee by Dr. Sid Schaefer	Jan 21st, 2008 07:03:14 AM
whoops. cut off there. submitter is still an asshat, though.
gee thanks by Teko	Jan 21st, 2008 07:54:54 AM
for the spoiled ending.
Yes, people do still rent VHS tapes... by LordPorkington	Jan 21st, 2008 08:19:26 AM
...they're called 'stupid cunts'.
Genuflect, show some respect by F69	Jan 21st, 2008 08:51:33 AM
Down on one knee! Now, try your best to stay calm, brush up your sunday salaam then come and meet his spectacular coterie!
"but the movie studios (Sigourney Weaver)..." by tonagan	Jan 21st, 2008 08:52:01 AM
So Sigourney Weaver plays all the movie studios? Is she CGI'd as a giant, transformer-like monster (who can apparently transform into a bulldozer?)
People do rent VHS still by norrinrad	Jan 21st, 2008 08:56:21 AM
if they're poor. The hard part is finding a video store that still has VHS tapes.
This years Little Miss FUCKING HORRIBLE FILM by hatespeech	Jan 21st, 2008 08:59:31 AM
God this sounds like a youtube experiment gone wrong, fucking horrible. shame on you JB, you're just in it for the MOAH-NEIGH!
"genuflects the thrust" by movieManiac	Jan 21st, 2008 09:01:12 AM
that just sounds nasty.
I'm in... by rxse7en	Jan 21st, 2008 09:09:54 AM
original story, chance for Jack Black to be funny, Mos Def goodness...what's to hate?
I Genuflected the Thrust Last Night by kevinwillis.net	Jan 21st, 2008 09:23:21 AM
Truly, I know how to give a woman pleasure.
Respect the Genuflect, bitch! by HudLives	Jan 21st, 2008 10:30:44 AM
This film looks great.
sweded pictures?! by RustyStardust	Jan 21st, 2008 10:57:14 AM
this dude must still be stoned from the show.
by the way, hatespeech. by RustyStardust	Jan 21st, 2008 10:57:56 AM
yer an ass. this movie looks awesome...
Sure, people still rent VHS.... by JustinSane	Jan 21st, 2008 11:14:26 AM
...not EVERYTHING is out (or will be out anytime soon) on DVD. The video store I used to work at had tons of super-rare titles on VHS.
True, JustinSane... by tonagan	Jan 21st, 2008 11:43:46 AM
And if it was anything like the video store I used to work at, a customer would return the super-rare title with six feet of chewed-up tape trailing on the flor and say "I think something's wrong with this tape. All my other movies play fine." Ah, memories.
That was supposed to be "floor" not "flor" by tonagan	Jan 21st, 2008 11:44:43 AM
I guess I was thinking of the film Dona Flor and Her Two Husbands (sure I was).
I want this movie to be good by Gungan Slayer	Jan 21st, 2008 01:37:50 PM
let's hope so. VHS rocks man! lol
blockbuster pays you to take their old VHS tapes by George Newman	Jan 21st, 2008 02:12:59 PM
those things are cheap
VHS tapes in 2008?! by Osmosis Jones	Jan 21st, 2008 02:30:53 PM
This movie would have made a lot more sense as an early-90's period piece.
I love Gondry, the cast, the concept... by Tourist	Jan 21st, 2008 02:57:54 PM
...But the trailers fucking stink, the attempt to add "sweded" to the lexicon, and the shitty vids themselves up on youtube. I hope it's just a case of everything not working out of context.
Genuflect before Zod!!! by Dingleberry Jones	Jan 21st, 2008 03:00:19 PM
Just doesn't sound quite right.
I still rent VHS by Tourist	Jan 21st, 2008 03:13:29 PM
Theres so goddamn much on VHS that isn't available (from rental sources) on DVD, that I'm left with no choice. Well, no cheap choice other than purchasing the DVD online.
People like a cheap knockoff better made by by Grammaton Cleric Binks	Jan 21st, 2008 04:25:42 PM
some amateurs instead of the original. Sure. It sounds likes this movie is trying to combine today's internet technology, and rampant homemade clips on You Tube with 80s nostalgia and technology. If I rented Rambo and watched it only to find Jack Black with a bandolier I would hunt him down and kill him. I find it easier to believe Denise Richards as a nuclear physicist in Tomorrow Never Dies (or whatever one it was) than this plot. There's suspension of belief, and there's who the hell are you kidding. As far as VHS goes I just rented Watership Down in that format because no one carries the DVD. Maybe Netflix, but I don't have a subscription.
Could I get a spoiler warning?!? by beetlegeuse	Jan 21st, 2008 09:20:24 PM
I know its pretty predictable but still... goddamn it
Lol Danny Glover and VHS by skywalkerfamily	Jan 21st, 2008 09:43:09 PM
Welcome to 1980.
If I had a nickel every time Moriarty promised a review and neve by JackIsLost	Jan 21st, 2008 09:44:27 PM
I would have approximately $30 bajillion.
never produced it, that is.... by JackIsLost	Jan 21st, 2008 09:45:47 PM
Seriously, just post what you write and stop telling what you WILL do. It's enough, already.
cant wait by stephen brown	Jan 21st, 2008 09:58:32 PM
I wonder if after this has passed theatrical release if it will come out on dvd or VHS. a bonus VHS tape with crappy ads for Leprachaun 4 or Blair Witch project 2 and the tape is not reqound
by stephen brown	Jan 21st, 2008 10:01:57 PM

its obviously everyone is asleep by stephen brown	Jan 21st, 2008 11:18:34 PM

The last VHS tape I bought was The Phantom by skywalkerfamily	Jan 21st, 2008 11:37:22 PM
Menace.
