That was good, but I just close my eyes and pretend it's Jim Carey, like when he pummels the cow in You, Me and Irene.

I guess anyone could have done that Jack Black scene there. The secret is in the kick, and how he nods when Ferrell lists up the things he love.

All the scenes in Me, Myself and Irene are hilarious. That movie is underrated.

I like that film. It could have been great. I really liked Anchorman though, I felt it was too stupid not to like it.

I hated it. Steve Carell was awful. The only good role he ever did was in Little Miss Sunshine. Watching the American Office makes me wanna kill myself. Im not too crazy about Ferrell either. Sure, he is funny now and then (Old School, Blades of Glory), and he did a pretty good job in Stranger Than Fiction, but most of the time he overacts with his screaming nonsense.

I just finished United States of Leland. I always imagined this to be a courtroom flick with Laura Palmers father in the role as the lawyer. I was wrong. Instead it was good film about people making mistakes. It was good because of Ryan Gosling. He is going to be the next big thing. I remember he did a great role in The Beliver, where he played a nazi-guest. Good film, great actor.

Deja Vu. I felt I'd seen this before.

PS the pun WAS intended, but I also meant it literally.

To be honest, I enjoyed Terminator 1 more than 2 and loved T2 when I saw it in the cinema when I was 14 but hated Terminator 1 years before the third one came out. I really dislike all three of them. Caroline adores action films and holds the Terminator films up as masterpieces, even the third one. I enjoyed Xmen 1 and 2.

I liked the second Terminator when it first came out, but now its very existence annoys me for some reason. It buckles under the strain of all the disbelief you have to suspend to accept its paradoxes. Why would you even return to a point after Sarah Connor already had given birth to John, especially if you've developed something as sophisticated as the T1000? Why wait until there are two targets that are prepared for you?

The first one still rocks though.

This joke has so many levels. Not only the obvious title-joke, (which was great), but also the fact that you spent weeks trying to watch it..

Two thumbs up from thunder.

Spiderman 3 : Meh. Missing the whole "Villains played by decent actors" thing

Grandma's Boy: Great stoner flick for gamers. :lol:

Blades of Glory: Hilarity

Black Knight: Why the fuck did I even watch this? Watched it really stoned, not even close to being humourous. DVD mysteriously disappeared the next day.

Event Horizon Special Edition: Dark, fucked up sci-fi = Good.

Don't Be a Menace In South Central While Drinking Your Juice In The Hood: Classic :lol:

Bernie Mac's self-hatred monologue deserves some sort of lifetime achievement recognition. "But I especially hate that black-ass Wesley Snipes!" :lol:
