Five statements of WISDOM
1. You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity, by legislating the wealth out of prosperity.
2. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.
3. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.
4. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it.
5. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friends, is the beginning of the end of any nation.

Looks a lot better than the Matthew Broderick abortion in the late 90s.

"Hey my friends are the ones that wanted to eat at that shitty hole in the wall that only served bread and wine.  What kind of brick and mud business model is that.  Stick to the cart if that's all you're going to serve.  Then that dude came in with like 12 other people, and some of them weren't even wearing shoes, and the restaurant sat them right across from us. It was gross, and they were all stinky and dirty.  Then dude starts talking about eating his body and drinking his blood...I almost lost it.  That's the last supper I'll ever have there, and I hope he dies a horrible death."

It truly doesn't......It's almost as good as watching the last second of the Iron Bowl.

My doctor told me I needed to stop masturbating.  I asked him why, and he said, "because I'm trying to examine you."

Saw it last night. The action and monsters looked great. Human characters were a little thin, dialogue was not that great, but let's face it, I was there for the monsters and the third act delivered on that in a big way.

Not the greatest thing in the history of ever, but fun and entertaining nonetheless.

You can keep a wooden stake in your trunk
On the off-chance that the fairy tales ain't bunk
And Imma keep a bottle of that funk

Well, to be fair, I don't read critics' reviews.  The ones I'm talking about are people whose opinions on art I respect.  YMMV.

Well the first fucking problem here is that people are thinking it's art.

It's entertainment.  Like the Tijuana donkey show.

I haven't seen it yet but I'm sure you would have a lot of respect for my artistic taste. I have a lot of Elvis stuff on display and a couple of vintage Budweiser signs. Maybe you could come over some time and we could hang out?

Who are your go-to reviewers?

Rotten Tomatoes has it at 77% fresh.  I usually use their conglomerate.

Don't waste them money on 3d. But give this movie a shot.

It didn't do anything I expected it to.  It was a good 40 minutes too long. It invested too much in throwaway characters. It had some enormous plot holes.  (For instance where does your uniform come from when you are hundreds of miles from where you are supposed to be and didn't have it with you to begin with?) There are some bizarre contrivances. (For instance, if you can just fly the warheads in a damn sling why bother with a train?)


But overall? It worked. Truer to the original than the ferris buehler one even though some aspects were similar.

I liked it. Broke no new ground. Made superman, zod, transformers and the avengers jealous of its total destruction.  But was what it was and good for that.
