Sam's Thread of Chattin' w/ Jake & Other Robust Subjects

[Dowdsy McDowds]

Orion had a nice little run in the 80s too. Well, the 1-2 of Terminator and Aliens (I think that's the second one I was thinking of)

 

[Y 2 Jake]

Robocop & Total Recall as well I think. Why is cinema so shit now!

 

[Dowdsy McDowds]

I need to watch Recall again soon. Balls to the Farrell one.

 

[Y 2 Jake]

Have I seen the remake? I think I have you know.

 

[Барбоса]

Have I seen the remake? I think I have you know.

With its colossal plot hole

 

[Y 2 Jake]

More like a black hole. I know nothing about it. But I've definately seen it. It is on the watched blu-ray shelf.

Frankly, Batista steals the show.

 

[Good Golly It's Ollie]

The Mail's right

U wot m8?

I need to see Guardians; Batista is apparently weirdly good.

 

[Y 2 Jake]

He had good lines of which he mumbled several. But considering he's sharing the screen with a racoon and a big tree, he does well to make an impact.

 

[TLC]

Metaphor.

 

[Tastycles]

I enjoyed Guardians of the Galaxy.

Nodded off during Herculese for about 20 minutes and didn't miss a thing. Earth To Echo steals from so many better films you just wish you were watching them instead.

 

[Uncle Sam]

I think it's spelled "Hercules," Jakey.

 

[Good Golly It's Ollie]

I think it's spelled "Hercules," Jakey.

No, no, no, that's what he meant to say. Herculese. It's what tough guy characters in films speak.

You know, "Fool! Do you earnestly believe you can defeat me?" and such like

 

[Y 2 Jake]

You haven't seen it. You don't know what it'll do to you.

 

[Uncle Sam]

I'll tell what I have seen: The Borderlands. Pretty decent horror that collapses right at the time you expect it to kick off.

 

[Y 2 Jake]

If it doesn't come to the cinema I won't be seeing it.

 

[Uncle Sam]

12-year-old boy: Who's the wanker on the bike?

Sam (on a bike): It's obviously me, you ********.

12-year-old boy's friends: Ooh!

12-year-old boy: That's right, ride away.

Sam: He's got me there.

 

[Dowdsy McDowds]

Watched Filth in 2 sittings last night and this morning. McAvoy is fantastic in every aspect and its great to see him appear in big blockbusters and smaller films in fairly regular fashion. Long may it continue!

Also watched Smaug on Netflix. The barrels and dragon were cool, everything else was poor and some of the fight scenes looked overly choreographed to the point where the actors were waiting for the opponent to get into position. Bollocks to it.

 

[Y 2 Jake]

I liked Filth. I will always hate McAvoy.

 

[Dowdsy McDowds]

How so?

 

[Y 2 Jake]

Appears smug in everything. With the possible exception of Filth.

 

[Dowdsy McDowds]

Fair enough. I have a similar thing with Bill Murray.

 

[Lee]

Fair enough. I have a similar thing with Bill Murray.

fuck you!

 

[Dowdsy McDowds]

That's pretty much the reaction I always get when I share my non-love of that grumpy faced baw-sack.
