Remember, if the 8 turns on its side to form an infinity, they've ripped that off from me on this very board.

Since Paul announced the movie, I kept on thinking it was 28 Days. When he described it, I said to myself, "Oh, it'll be 28 Days". When he said "We're doing The Lake House", I still wouldn't have it, I just thought "That's weird, they call it The Lake House, why don't they call it 28 Days like we do here?!" Then I searched "The Lake House" on Netflix, and 28 Days popped up, and I thought "Ha! Stupid Paul! I knew it was 28 Days!" Turns out, 28 Days is actually a different movie... FIVE STARS!

I've been thinking of titles for porno versions for hours, and quite frankly, I don't want to even post them here, because I'm disappointed with myself for even thinking them up.

I like this movie, purely for the line "This is an '81 Honda! How dare you?!"

I want Terry Crews in EVERYTHING. I wish there was Terry Crews/Rob Riggle buddy cop comedy. But for Little John, you'd need someone even bigger than Terry Crews. So it'd probably have to be Shaq. I've just looked at the cast for this new Robin Hood movie, and it doesn't make a lick of sense. Will Scarlet (Jamie Dornan) is not only the older brother of Robin Hood (Taron Egerton), he's also married to Maid Marian. Tim Minchin is Friar Tuck, that should tell you everything, and Little John is 5'9". It's like they're not even trying.

Thats kind of why I'm torn on it. Like the whole thing with Jamie Foxx playing Little John in this new Robin Hood film that's coming up, Little John is a giant, who was known as this phenominally strong warrior, so casting Jamie Foxx in that role is a werid choice. But on the other hand, Jamie Foxx is also an Oscar winning actor, so he's probably not going to do a shitty job.

I'm somewhat torn on this, because while "the best for the job" should absolutely be the deciding factor, but I'm also quite firm in the belief of faithful recreations. Case in point, they're making a movie for Sleeping Dogs, one of my all time favourite games, absolutely love it. Sleeping Dogs is about an undercover cop by the name of 'Wei Shen', who returns home to Hong Kong to infiltrate the Triads. However, he begins rising up the ranks, and quickly becomes a 'red pole' (one of the bosses, but not the big boss), and then there's this element of whether he's gotten too deep into the Triads and has become one, or if he's still a cop. Luckily, Donnie Yen (who, at 53 is perhaps a little old for the part, but that's minor) is taking the main role of Wei Shen. However, if they'd have said "Yeah, we're making Sleeping Dogs, but Wei Shen will now be played by Scott Adkins, and will be called 'Wayne Shannon' and we're gonna have it where he was born there when Hong Kong was a UK territory", I'd have been PISSED. I prefer to see the thing that I love made into a movie as I remember them. However, at the same time, Morgan Freeman in The Shawshank Redemption, Will Smith as Agent J, Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury, Denzel Washington as The Equalizer, they were all great in those roles. So, I'm torn on it all.

I think Gallows and Anderson as "Tex Ferguson" and "Chadd 2 Badd" were hilarious, especially Anderson bragging about his new green jacket.

If you have a spare 25 minutes, you HAVE to watch "Southpaw Regional Wrestling", it's a brilliant send up of the cheesy 80s wrestling territories. Especially John Cena as a Ron Burgundy-esq commentator, and a Bulgarian as a hillbilly farmer.

When Paul talked about the guy he knew at school, making sure there was always an outline around his dick, it just reminded me of a guy I knew who did something similar, and I just ended up crying with laughter. Every so often, he'd "adjust himself", to use a more polite euphamism. He'd do that in an attempt to make it look bigger to get what is known where I come from as a "semi-on" so that he'd stand a better chance of "Getting a bonk" as he'd call it.

Is this a porno? Because it kinda feels like a porno.

I said it in that shit show of a thread for "You Can't Stop The Music", I'm saying it here. Coconut is the Channing Tatum of flavours. If Coconut/Channing Tatum in something as a supplement to a stronger flavour, it's pleasant, you think "Hey, Channing Tatum/Coconut is in this". However, when it's the selling point, it falls flat, it doesn't hold the same interest as it does when teamed up with something else.

It's one thing to be eating Bounty, but to not even go for dark chocolate is just, disgraceful. And pineapple on Pizza is wrong.

So, you went to an Odeon Screen Unseen? I keep on meaning to go to them, but never got round to it. The only "weird" thing that happened with me is some stupid girl taking selfies half way through the movie. Who the fuck does that?!

No. it's also playing at SXSW, so there's a tenuous link there. But, I'm so happy The Disaster Artist is good, because I was gonna watch it regardless because I became obsessed with The Room, including a time it caused me to break up with my girlfriend at the time, because I put it on as a joke. So, I got the same excitement about hearing an adaptation that I did last night when I found out about the Sleeping Dogs movie.

I'm also hearing good things about "The Light of the Moon" too.

Yeah, that shit's taking it too far. Don't like them, just leave it alone, simple as that. I only noticed the ratings because when I looked on Netflix, it was recommended to me as a nearly 5 star special. Then the next day, it was on half a star, so I looked because I've never seen such a drastic change. Hell, I don't like Kumail Nanjiani, he was on HDTGM a couple of weeks ago, but I'm not gonna lose my mind over it. But, I'm more of the belief of "Don't like, don't watch", it just seems counter-productive to leave bad reviews for the sake of it. Better to promote the shit you do like.

She's also been caught stealing jokes, that shit goes a long way to it as well. Look at what happened with Carlos Mencia and Dane Cook, they got caught, did huge damage to their careers and public opinion.

Wow! Amy Schumer's Netflix special has perhaps the worst reviews I've ever seen. Over 800 reviews, and most of them have one star.

Not only that, they included stupid side games. If they'd have done away with Motor Kombat and Kreate a Kombatant, then it there would have been fatalities, and actual end sequences, as opposed to those Katas and scrolling text. It's pretty weird seeing a 9ft tall Dragon King doings a Kata, whilst a rolling text describe the events of him destroying all the realms and taking them for himself.

Also, I saw this, and nearly put my fist through my monitor in sheer excitement https://news.boxofficebuz.com/article/donnie-yen-to-star-in-sleeping-dogs-adaptation

I think it was because I enjoyed it because I could predict it, where could say "This is what's gonna happen!" and when it does, I then say "See! I fucking told you! I am the smartest man in the history of everything!" I'm insufferable at times.

Another non-sequitur from me, but If you haven't seen "The Girl on the Train" yet, you really should, it's brilliant. And I may have a perma-crush on Haley Bennett.

Injustice was oustanding, and I'm not even a comic book guy. But you're right, they've introduced new characters, and actually made decent ones, there was a period between Deadly Alliance and Armageddon where they had some real duds, like Kobra, Darrius, Dairou, Hotaru, Hsu Hao and others who were just generic. Then 9 and 10 came about, and we got some great ones like Erron Black and D'Vorah.
