    It was enjoyable to watch Willis and Def get into deeper and deeper shit as time went on.

    But it would've been great as an offbeat Die Hard sequel.

    "McLane don't you usually handle the Big Deal kind of cases?"

    "Yeah but I'm retiring tomorrow. This'll be a walk in the park."

    I read this as Bruce Willis and Mos Def playing the same handicapped man like some kind of Always Sunny Lethal Weapon 5 scenario.

    It would have been oscar nominated had he not borrowed from a couple of his earlier songs.

    That movie ruled but I can see where someone might not like it.

    I agree that the final scene is killer.

    They are wayyy too harsh. But yeah, apart from the fun Spidey antics scattered throughout, it is kind of a crap movie.

    Okay no joke that milkshake scene is fantastic! It's a great scene by any metric. I'd heard all about it and everyone made milkshake jokes for months before I actually got around to seeing the movie and it was still a great scene

    It's a shame that I had to sit through the other 2.5 hours to get there

    In the great No Country for Old Men vs There Will Be Blood battle of '07, I was firmly on the side of No Country. But yeah, There Will Be Blood is a pretty rad movie. Not my favourite PT Anderson by a long shot, though.

    There Will Be Blood is not a movie I liked

    I do think the score succeeded in exactly what it was going for

    Which is discomfort

    And it comes from a Radiohead guy, so yeah, that all checks out

    when they both came out I was like, yeah no country is my boy, it's so expertly done with not a second out of place. Just like a pure, you want to learn how to make a movie, study this thing it gets nothing wrong. The pace, the script, the visual storytelling all brilliant.

    There will be blood seemed messy in comparison. But as time went on, the need to compare them has kind of gone for me and i don't really feel that way about twbb at all any more. Fact I think I like it almost as much now.

    Apparently Elsa, from Frozen, is going to be on Once Upon A Time soon
    I know that it makes sense to do so with the whole corporate synergy thing but man do I hate basically everything I hear about that show
    Keep poor Elsa out of it

    I don't know why but I find the depressing stuff by Radiohead relaxing somehow.

    I bought my Mom Frozen, for Mothers Day.

    She's been talking about wanting to see it for weeks, so I thought since I was there we should watch it after we got back from dinner.

    20 minutes in she told me it was the most boring thing she's ever seen and gave me the dvd to take home...

    Guess I know what I'll finish watching tonight.

    My mom wants to go see a new superhero movie every single Mother's Day, since Iron Man 1 basically

    I think the only time we didn't was because the only one that was out was X-Men Origins and she's even more apathetic to the X-Men than I am

    Also I had seen it prior to that and it was just the worst

    This year we saw ASM2, she didn't like it

    She loved Tangled. I bought that for her, whenever that was, two or three years ago, and she raved about it.

    I have seen neither but I would assume they are somewhat similar. Basically, my family is completely nuts.

    I literally don't understand the complaint if she liked tangled

    The first 15 minutes are basically the setup and they're pretty similar

    I watched Naked Weapon today with a friend

    you know, you're brushing through LoveFilm and you see a movie called Naked Weapon about assassins trained in the deadly arts of killing and seduction (?) and you think "this looks shit let's put it on for a laugh."

    Anyway so yeah it was going alright you know as per expected battle royal training camp martial arts etc

    And then there is a single particular scene

    I don't want to spell it out but if anyone has seen this movie they will know what I mean because holy shit that is fucked up

    and then the rest of the movie goes on like this particular scene didn't actually happen and it's exactly what you'd expect given what happens prior to The Scene. It's so massively, hideously jarring compared to anything else in the movie it beggars belief.

    Anyway so Maggie Q is in it but I do wonder when she read the script what led her to think "yeah okay that's all good." I mean 99% of it yeah but that 1% man
