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

[Uncle Sam]

I'm-a go see District 9. I look forward to either pissing on Xfear's parade or bending over and letting him take me from behind.

...


What.

 

[X]

You shouldn't.

I've gotta say, I'm enjoying Killzone 2. For no other reason than the Helghast have cockney accents and the idiolect of present day New Yorkers. "I shit you not - ee's been tellin' porkies 'ee 'as! So, how 'bout them Knicks, guvna?"

Is it bizarre that I've *********ed to this statement several times since waking up?

 

[OIL]

Sam, what's your PS3 username?

 

[X]

...


What.

Either way, the fans win.

Go see it. And then either I'll kindly bend over, or you will. Either way, someone's going to be buying softer chairs from Ikea tomorrow afternoon.

 

[Uncle Sam]

You'll have my views sometime today. Look forward to it.

 

[Uncle Sam]

So, X, I typed up a review in the movies & television section. Don't know if it will show up. 8/10 movie.

Ha. Bend over and grease up baby.

Quite good, wasn't it?

 

[Uncle Sam]

Yeah, not bad. It could just be my love of the South African accent though.

 

[Uncle Sam]

Anyone seen Diary of the Dead? Dumbest movie people ever.

"Hai guys, wanna bring your guns in?" "Nah, lol, I'll just go stand in the doorway and turn around so I can't see what's comin'." "Yeah, lol."

Surviving a zombie movie is a piece of piss.

Yeah Diary of the Dead was pretty poor. I hope Romero's next film isn't trash.

I'm moderately pleased with my Flickchart, save numbers 18, 19 and 20. Just looking at the first page.

Edit: I'm trying to fix it.

Edit2: Fixed. Kinda.

 

[X]

Pitch Black as your number 2?



Here's mine:

http://www.flickchart.com/xfearbefore

There's a few films in my top 20 that definitely should not be. Like Jackie Brown, Closer, and The Wrestler. The fact that Blue Velvet isn't in my top films yet saddens me. I'm going to go fix that.

 

[Uncle Sam]

Pitch Black as your number 2?

It beat what was originally second, which was some shit like Titanic. We both know the system doesn't really work. Collateral was originally number two but I couldn't have that so I removed it completely.

I'm trying to get films by the Coens and Fincher as high as I can, but Jaws, Aliens and Pulp Fiction are keeping them at bay well.

Edit: You criticise me for Pitch Black yet you have the most overrated piece of shit of all-time as your number two?

 

[X]

What, the Departed? What the hell's wrong with The Departed? Not in my Top Twenty, but it's a damn good film.

 

[Uncle Sam]

Murfish has simultaneously the best and worst list: http://www.flickchart.com/Charts.aspx?user=Murfish

Equilibrium and Revolutions above the daddy of them both? Something is wrong.

 

[Uncle Sam]

What, the Departed? What the hell's wrong with The Departed? Not in my Top Twenty, but it's a damn good film.

Damn good for a by-the-numbers gang film. Wait. Wait, no. Average for a by-the-numbers gang film.

And with a shit ending. And Ray Winstone for some reason.

 

[Uncle Sam]

NCFOM poster with cast autographs pre-printed on it. Tempting.

 

[X]

Nice poster. Very retro looking.

Somehow Scream 2 just made it into my top 20.

 

[Uncle Sam]

I'm convinced that I'll be perfectly satisfied with my top 20 in about three months. I'm going to re-rank Pitch Black right now - see if I can't knock it down a notch. Problem is, I'll risk putting a worse film as my number two. If Jaws and Pulp Fiction ever come face-to-face, I could spend days trying to make the decision.

 

[Uncle Sam]

Jaws vs. Aliens. Almost as bad.

Edit: Gotta give it to... Aliens...

 

[X]

That's a toughie. I'd go for Jaws though.

 

[Uncle Sam]

That's a toughie. I'd go for Jaws though.

They're both awesome films, they're both great childhood memories, but Aliens is something that me and friends agree on so it has the edge there. Just. Jaws shrugs off the defeat and makes it to number three. I'm going to forcefully rip Pitch Black out to give it the number two spot.

 

[X]

I'm getting angry. Every time I try to re-rank a film and get it out of my top twenty, it pits it up against the worst shit imaginable. I don't want Terminator 2 in my top twenty, but I'll be damned if I'm about to vote Creepshow 2 over it.

 

[Uncle Sam]

I don't want Terminator 2 in my top twenty, but I'll be damned if I'm about to vote Creepshow 2 over it.

Terminator, Terminator 2 and Die Hard must have the most wins of any of my films, but it's only the latter that's made it into the top 20.

The dark knight still hasn't lost one on mine.
