Yuri: I also have some dim-dims. You use this word, dim-dims? The bullets that make the head explode?

Harry: Dum-dums. Yeah.

Yuri: Would you like some of these dim-dims?

Harry: I know I shouldn't... but I will.

[takes whole case of dum-dums]

 

Dialogue is f***in hilarious basically the whole movie...

I believe that same scene has both the "corridor" exchange and this one (a fave of mine for sure):

 

Eirik: I was trying to rob him. And he took my gun from me. And the gun was full of blanks. And he shot a blank into my eye. And now I cannot see from this eye ever again, the doctors say.

Harry: Well to be honest it sounds like it's all your fault.

Eirik: What?

Harry: I mean basically if you're robbing a man and you're only carrying blanks and you allow your gun to be taken off you and you allow yourself to be shot in the eye with a blank which I assume that the person has to get quite close to you then, yeah really it's all your fault for being such a poof, so why don't you stop wingeing and cheer the f*** up.

Yuri: Eirek - I really wouldn't respond.

Eirik: I thought you wanted the guy dead?

Harry: I do want the guy dead, I want him f***ing crucified but it don't change the fact that he stitched you up like a blind little gay boy, does it?

forgetting sarah marshall was not funny at all.

 

 

I still get a little teary-eyed while watching WALL-E.

Almost finished with Slumdog Millionaire. It reminds me of a cross between City of God, Born Into Brothels and Monsoon Wedding...some people take issue with the neat "flashback" accounting for the plot, but it works for me. 3 1/2 stars.

 

By the way, I really really like The Visitor, whose star is Richard Jenkins, Frances McDormand's boss at Hardbodies in Burn After Reading. It's one of those quiet, understated but elegant movies like About Schmidt that kind of just sneak up on you and grab hold of you. Great movie. A little bit like In America mixed with About Schmidt is my description.

Watched "The Business of Being Born" with my wife last night. Pretty eye-opening documentary on child birth. Definitely recommend to anyone planning on having a child.

What do you guys think of My Bloddy Valentine 3-D? Looking at the previews you have no idea what it's about as they are just hyping the 3-D effects in the theatre. It has a suprising, yet early, positive rating at RT.

I'm assuming it's a remake of the 1981 film which I vaguely remember seeing.

I love 3-D, just the technology, it's amazing. The movie will blow though.

I like how the previews has a chick riding some dude reverse cowgirl style.

Have to stay at home after a hospital visit today. Rented Pineapple Express. Usually hate movies like that, but that was funny stuff. If Franco wasn't in it, I may have felt differently.

Agreed, although Danny Mcbride (the unkillable drug dealer) has some great comedic timing.

Him and Will Farrell are in Land of the Lost remake.

I loved McBride in that role.

Blunt As Black Widow In "Iron Man 2"?

By Garth FranklinThursday, January 15th 2009 7:14am

image Emily Blunt ("The Devil Wears Prada," "Charlie Wilson's War") is allegedly in talks to play Natasha Romanoff, aka the Black Widow, in Marvel Studios' "Iron Man 2" says Variety.

 

In the comics Romanoff is a Soviet super spy in a skintight black costume that is enhanced by high-tech weaponry.She joins the previously-announced villains Mickey Rourke and Sam Rockwell in the sequel.

 

Jon Favreau helms the Justin Theroux-scripted sequel which begins shooting this Spring.

 

per DarkHorizons.com

Haven't seen the movie, but would it be funny if Clint Eastwood's character in Gran Torino talked to Christian Bale as Batman? It would be super deep, scratchy voices going back and forth like no other.

I'm currently replaying Metal Gear Solid for PS1...you can really tell the difference from a younger snake to an older one.

Voice-wise?

WOW. Two Solid Snake references that quickly.

 

Off topic, yet not off topic. My buddy Juan is such a Metal Gear freak we always jump at the chance of making a Solid Snake joke with him. He gets soooooo pissed its hilarious. We joke he secretly wants to be Snake in a certain situations,mind you Juan is a 400 pound 6 foot 6 Mexican. I guess you would have to know him for it to be funny.

Does he happen to carry around a cardboard box and try to hide in it occasionally?

yeah...Hayter thought giving Snake a growly voice in MGS4 would add to him looking older.
