Just watched "I love you Philip Morris" on DVD, was much funnier than I expected. Good laugh, quite twisted in places.

Tristram Shandy: A Cock & Bull Story is a lot of fun. Does great justice to the book, even though it only shows about three scenes from it.

coopers camera (alt title coopers christmas) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1242777/

smutty dysfunctional holiday fun . i could have enjoyed it more if was a lil more moralistic , but that would completely nullify the main gag of this film . the writing , acting was really well executed , i guess i would say it was a guilty pleasure . the drama revolves around a phony adulterous marriage , and that is tough for me personally . my entire extended family pulled off the appearance of successful happy monogamous relationships . any sort of infidelity in movies tends to throw me off quite a bit , either way , man cheating , woman cheating it just fuckin ruins it for me , the premise of this whole film was exactly that , but it was comedic gold at many points . check it out if you can find it !

imdb shows polarizing reviews which usually points to awesomeness more than not .

Got a copy of Expendables from a mate. Oh my god, terrible.

If you haven't seen it, here's the recipe:

Take Sly and Dolph, mix in some 90s action hero movie cliches, add a pinch of Jet Li, throw in too many wrestlers, add pornoultraviolence gun candy and martial art takedowns, remove any common sense, chuck in a cameo from Bruce and Arnie looking smugger than Jeremy Clarkson in a hall of mirrors, then shake the whole thing up, shove it up your arse and shit it out into the cinema-going public's collective mouths, whilst rolling around in money, snorting coke and wanking into your own mouth, sniggering at how you fooled everyone into thinking you ever had a quality product to sell.

Really, it's that bad. There are straight to video movies I saw when I was a teenager that were better than that. Actually, was it made as a joke? Did I miss a meeting?

0 stars
0 out of 10
0 out of 100
keep raising the bar, use any rating system you like, I'll keep giving this film 0.

Thank Christ I got it as a freebie. I would have travelled to Sly's house to get my money back (a la South Park/Mel Gibson episode) if I had paid to see that piece of shit.

I literally watched it, on my iPod, on the bus to work across the week. I would never allocate any of my actual valuable time to that crapout garbagefest, nor recommend anyone else does either.

Shit, I could have read a decent book on those journeys.

I wrote that while I was drunk, yet I stand by it.

I would however, like to remove the repetition of the word "mouth", maybe use "eyes" second time around?

Been watching "The State" all over again- it's so-so. Cool seeing all the Reno911 crew super young and I always loved the intro song.

Watching some of "The Whitest Kids You Know"- there's some great bits and at worst it's so-so

Also watching the series "The Vice Guide To Travel"- so far I dig what I'm seeing. Liked when they explored Chernobil. (sp)

Yeah, I had a blast watching it. Also watched The Fighter this weekend, everyone was amazing in it, but particular kudos go to Christian Bale and Melissa Leo, they really sell the poor white trash thing.
