Like I can't really think of any awards show bits that have really made me go OH WOW WHAT A SHOW outside of that one Conan musical number or one of the Emmys things where they actually filmed stuff with the casts of various shows with the hosts running through them
..up to a point, a point at which it was originally supposed to end. But when they were getting to that point some of the less creative aspects of management realizes "hey woah woah woah, we are making a bunch of money on this.. let's keep it going! make it bigger!"
And that is when the Clone Saga became the Clone Saga
Also the Ultimate Clone Saga is legit great no reservations
Middle English the language of the middle ages. So Chaucer pretty much. It'd be really cool to see a historical film that actually uses the language of the time.
It's the mid point between Old English and Modern English. So it's both familiar and alien. You can read it fairly easily.
An Old English film would be great too. But it would be more difficult to do.
I feel like Dusk till Dawn is great up until the Vampire twist, not because the twist itself is ridiculous, but because the action after that point is so lazy and half-assed. It comes off as less "there was a monster moving hiding in this film all along!" and more "um, throw some vampires in and film lots and lots of quick action cuts which disorient the viewer into thinking something badass is happening, when it really isnt"
Also I enjoyed the Evil Dead remake better than the original, it has a kick ass ending and although the tree rape scene is still in there, its toned down and less film-ruining because of (maybe spoilers)
the main character being a twist, where instead of the strapping level-headed white guy its the flawed but badass junkie chick who ends up ass-kicking
Marty: The future, it's where you're going? Doc: That's right, twenty five years into the future. I've always dreamed on seeing the future, looking beyond my years, seeing the progress of mankind. I'll also be able to see who wins the next twenty-five world series.

Like, I wasn't even joking. I own the collected editions and everything.
Mostly for nostalgia purposes, but yes, I will agree, it turns to poop 2/3rds of the way through.
Ok if you're into feet, fine, it ain't my thing but do what makes you happy
But quit putting them front and center in your films and when you're in your buddy's film don't make me watch you sucking on Salma Hayek's toes

I don't have a foot fetish and I'd love to suck on Salma Hayek's feet.

By the way, I got to see a free early-screening of John Wick.
It was incredibly brutal and it is so enjoyable watching Keanue Reeves headshot his way through a river of Russian mobsters in heated pursuit of Theon Greyjoy.

It seems like a lot of people I know read Canterbury Tales at some point in school but I've never read a word of Chaucer
It is really good and also this is because he's on a lot of school curriculums if only for students to memorize the first passage of the tales. But if your high school didn't do it then it's not likely you'd ever read him.

That was pretty great.
See here's the funny thing about the Clone Saga
A lot of it is quite good!

there was that one episode of sleepy hollow where dudes from the seventeenth century were speaking it for some reason
At any rate, it's one of my favourite films, and a pretty goddam good one.

Did people really go into this not knowing it was a vampire movie?
Roanoke even, a colony that disapeared when Shakespeare was writing plays.
This was years and years ago though, and it became obvious pretty quickly

I think he means Middle English as in, the language of Chaucer and his contemporaries

Ugh you weirdo
Guh.
I mean, don't get me wrong. I'm not opposed to older variants of English. Shakespeare is my jam and all that.
But Chaucer...
That was English in Alpha. Maybe pre-alpha. English before it was ready for the viewing public.
Early access English.
Why I fear the ocean.

I still love it though.
It's not a Tarantino movie, so it's really just Robert Rodriguez indulging his buddy

If you dig feet whatever more power to you
But I can still find it gross to watch
Well now I'm gonna do just that, just to spite you
kinda

Just saying....
It was incredibly brutal and it is so enjoyable watching Keanue Reeves headshot his way through a river of Russian mobsters in heated pursuit of Theon Greyjoy.
DIDN'T I!?!?!
No you did not
No that's old English, keep up!
