yea, you get more bang for your buck if you buy em”

“Since this is the Christmas season, how about renting "Bad Santa." Its destined to become a Christmas classic for all the wrong reasons!”

“Or how about Tim Buton's "The Nightmare Before Christmas." A little off-the-wall combination of Halloween vs. Christmas.”

“Bad Santa was funny!

I like to take out travel DVDs from the library.”

“omg...I watched dawn of the dead today.
110 minutes of my life completely wasted. what a bunch of crap movie.

i know...should've expected a zombie movie to be a #&%!$y movie...and I did...but i thought they said it was pretty good...then I remembered that was "texas chain masacre"

“how the hell is bad santa a travel movie?”

“Crash, Santa travels doesn't he, lol.

The Lonely Planet travel videos are really good, especially if this guy Ian White is the travel host. He's a riot!”

“I finally got around to watch The Edge last night, good movie and great scenery. Watched Day after Tomorrow Friday night. Another good movie”

“"Dodgeball" has just enough good laughs to make it worth renting. Absolutely mindless fun that has the whole trendy gym and obscure sports elements well pegged.”

“"The Lonely Planet travel videos are really good, especially if this guy Ian White is the travel host. He's a riot!”

This is one of my all time favorite shows! Ian is hilarious! I liked it when he went to Greenland and went hunting. The hunter tricked him into eating the reindeer’s stomach contents. LOL! He’s always getting drunk with the locals too. They still show that show under a different name I think on PBS. He’s also got another new show where he just travels the world doing a bunch of crazy stuff. I can’t remember the name of the show, time or even the station. Sorry. Looks good though.”

“Remember the one where he was trekking in Mongolia, and the natives had him eat a sheep's eye? That one was cool.”

“Watched Day after Tomorrow Friday night. Another good movie”
Ewker

Note to self...Never listen to Ewker! NEVER!!”

“I watched day after tomorrow a while back...thought it was a little stupid...can't remember what exactally...but there was a really dumb scene, where Dennis Quaid was hanging of a building (??? or something)...I think he even had his hands full...not sure anymore...was about to fall, like in all those movies...Anyway... he was able to safe his ass magically by getting a rope, or something. Dang, i can't remember, but it was something completely impossible...

It was still okay...just a little stupid.”

“The new version of "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" wasn't that good either. Other than Jennifer Biel (?) in a sweaty skin-tight T-shirt running in the swamp...nothing too spectacular.

Didn't see the new version of "Dawn of the Dead".....I saw the older version...filmed in the 70's.....the one where the 2 soldiers and a few surviors barricaded themselves in a shopping mall. That one I really liked.”

“The PBS version of Lonely Planet is called Globe Trekker. I love that show. Travel channel used to show it all the time before they started showing their stupid vegas shows and worlds biggest yacht and Haunted Washington DC shows.”

“BTW EWker, that other Alaska movie I was trying to think of with Chris Kristopherson is called "Limbo" it's pretty good.

“The Bear was always one of my favoites.”

“Saw ELF this weekend. That was a lot of fun.


I am totally in love with Zoey Deschanel.”

“I saw Bad Santa. I'll never be able to get those 90 minutes of my life back!”

“I watched Hero...again. I think I'll average about once a week for the next year. I hope The House of Flying Daggers comes near enough for me to go see it.”

“Just saw Dodgeball this weekend.... I really needed something funny to take my mind off of some things... It was pretty funny!”

“oops... double post!

“I watched Dodge Ball over the weekend. Juvenile humor rocks.

One thing that cracked me up was the enormous banner hanging over the dodgeball surface with the logo, "Go Balls Deep"”

“LOL!

We kept replaying the black & white clip of the little kid getting his glasses smashed off--for some reason it was completely hilarious!

Justin was pretty funny-- he was in Galaxy Quest too-- he has the "nerdy geeky guy" role down pat!”

“The Lance Armstrong cameo was good.

"I survived testicular, brain, and lung cancer to go on and win 5 Tour De Frances, but I'm sure you have a good reason for quitting."”

“LOL... I agree with that... :-)

Ben Stiller was hilarious! But didn't his moustache look completely fake?!”

Exactly! And Porn is kind of like sex or pizza, no?”

“Stiller was too much. I thought Vince Vaughn made the movie though. The coach was good too.

What are those?
Wrenches.
Wrenches?
Hell yeah, if you can dodge a wrench you can dodge a ball. {throws wrench}
Oh holy mother of God, my head, my head.”

“speaking of sex and pizza....dodge ball had sex with pizza.”

“I hope it wasn't really hot pizza, that could really burn!”

“I hiked with CMB right after he got burned by a piece of scalding hot molton pizza”

“CMB likes Pizza sex?”

“OMG-- yes, the wrench scene was absolutely hysterical!

Did you rent the DVD and see the out-takes? Some of them are just as, if not, funnier than the scenes in the movie itself...

How about when Justin has to do the lift with the chubby cheerleader?!

I do agree-- although they billed it as a Ben Stiller movie, it was more of a Vince Vaughn movie... he's just so "matter-of-fact" throughout the whole movie... :-)

I actually bought the movie on a whim at Sam's club--I figured that since Thinkbubelz and I'd be watching the movie with a friend, buying the movie for $19 was equivalent to the 3 of us going to the movies... It really gave us a good laugh when I needed it!”

“I think Vince Vaugn is twice as funny as as Stiller. He was great in Old School even though he got upstaged by Will Farrel.”

“They are both funny in their own ways... I don't remember what character he played in old school?”

“I didn't see the outtakes. I was short on time.


Blockbuster had one lousy copy of Hero and it was taken. Maybe next week.”

“Dayhiker, see if you can rent "The Emperor and the Assasin"....a more accurate story than "Hero". Although "Hero" have more martial arts in it.”

“I think my sister just saw "The House of Flying Daggers" and recommended it...
I haven't heard much about it otherwise... I am guessing it would be a film that's shown in limited venues?”

“So these two tales are based on a true story then? I don't know anything about it other than that Nigal has raved about it.”

“I can't remember, but I think I saw the Emperor and the Assassin a while ago-- If I remember correctly the movie sort of dragged a bit.... don't really remember the plot... I've never seen Hero...”

“But Nigal raves about so many things...”

“I'm assuming stuffed pizza would be the way to go?”

“Not necessarily; you could wrap regular pizza around your...oh never mind.”

“Bear-- did you see Dodgeball?
I believe it was a slice, not a stuffed pizza...it didn't appear to be a deep-dish, either.... LOL”

“No, I haven't seen it. I thought y'all were joking. How can a slice be fun?????? Well....looks like Bit has figured it out.”

““I think my sister just saw "The House of Flying Daggers" and recommended it...

We have a movie house that shows all the import films and the ducumentaries near me and they will be starting it on Jan. 21st. It's made by the same guy who directed Hero. I heard a review on NPR this weekend and the guy couldn't give it a better review if he went down on the director. He said the story was just so great and that the use of color was the most spectacular thing he'd ever seen. He said he didn't think that a more spectacular movie could even be made but if there was, this director would be involved in it. YOWZA!”

“See what I mean?”

“I think we will be renting movies this coming weekend. I am hoping she wants to see dogeball and super size me.”

““But Nigal raves about so many things...”

Man you should see the new beard trimmers I got for my birthday! They are the bomb! One thing I hate is when you're trimming up your daddy parts and the trimmer does more pulling out of hair than trimming. These were nice and smooth. No pulling, no yanking. I don't end up itching really bad three days later. Nothing worse than standing in line at the bank scratching like monkey. The only complaint I have about them is they do smell a little funny. Kind of like cheese gone bad. ?????”

“Basically it's about the same emperor in the Qinq dynasty. He did suceed in unifying China (5 emperors at that time)....by conquering them. He was one mean sum-of-a- beach.

In a very sad kind of way...it was good for China...at that time I think there were over 300 dialects in the Chinese language. He made Mandarin the official language.”
