Ha, thats great. I’ve seen the previews for the movie but haven’t seen that clip yet! I’m waiting for the new Alien vs. Predator movie coming out on Christmas. (there’s an alien predator hybrid now)
This is not a movie, but there was some cartoon snuffing the other night. I was watching The Venture Brothers on Adult Swim on the Cartoon Network. It was the episode called The Incredible Mr. Brisby. I had to rewind it on my DVR to make sure that what I just saw was Dr. Venture really taking a pinch from his snuffbox. He definitely took a quick pinch, guaranteed non snuffers would not have caught it.
“I’m waiting for the new Alien vs. Predator movie coming out on Christmas.” Why?! The first AVP was such a let-down. I’d sooner watch “The Sound of Music” in a room full of gay men than to sit through another AVP. Just pass me the Rainbow Snuff.
Thats exactly why I said that. I was comparing it to Johnny Depp singing in a musical type atmosphere in “Sweeney Todd”. The last line I wrote in parenthesis was a little sarcasm!!! About as bad as a 61 year old Sylvester Stallone doing another Rambo!!!

One thing I find funny about supposedly gay things like musicals is how often they will have sexy woman in them. I don’t know much about who’s in sweeny todd otherwise then Johny depp Though I’am sure there is some fine Victorian-era cleveage in there somewhere.

I’m going to have to back Chas up on this one. Yeah, OK, it’s a musical, but if someone told you the plot, and you didn’t know it was a musical, it would sound pretty good. I’m certainly going to go see it. Cheers, Tom
Hey, nothing wrong with musicals. The Rocky Horror Picture Show, anyone? Or even Grease, or Hairspray
Those movies are a complete waste of film in my opinion. But again, thats just my opinion & each person enjoys their own style. Nothing wrong with liking them, just I don’t. My mom & sis enjoy them but they also took musical theatre classes in High School & mom continued through college, so thats their style. I wouldn’t go to see one even if there was guaranteed nudity!!! Thats the biggest reason I couldn’t enjoy the Gene Autry movies, all the singing. And I’m a big fan of old westerns. If I went to a movie not knowing there was singing involved, I would walk out as soon as it started!! LOL
I’m with troustroker on this one… I don’t particularly like movies in the first place. 1) I can’t sit still long enough to finish them most of the time. 2) I’m just too damn arrogant to pay someone else to burn up 3 hours of my day even if I could sit still through the whole thing, not to mention I don’t have the most willing suspension of disbelief required for pure fiction. and 3) I just flat out disagree with the political views of about 90% of the actors, producers, and directors so i prefer not to feed their political action committees. However, even more of a waste of time than a movie in my opinion is a musical… If I’m going to listen to music I’ll turn my radio on…at least its free and the songs only last 3 minutes…
There’s plenty of free movies on the net. I haven’t even watched TV in years. The last time I actually paid to enter a theater was 1970 something. I smoked a pipe while watching the movie which seems incredible now.

Usually I watch out for Tim Burton films, even if they are not great they are usually worth watching because they have a great sense of otherworldiness that other film makers cant capture in quite the way Burton can. Having said all that, I would like to tell him to stop making flims with singing in! I think Nightmare before Christmas was a musical he made and I only got about 10 minutes into it before switching it off. The big problem for me with musicals is that the songs are usually so bad! (Mary Poppins exculded, I do a great version of Chim Chimeny on the ukulele!)
I guess I just like theatrics, I’m a Gwar fan as well (that’s a metal band that puts on one heck of a stage show) I prefer indie horror/gore flicks in all reality as my favorites.

Funny you should mention Gwar, Yaznaki, I went to college at VCU in Richmond in from ‘87 to 92’ and knew Dave Brockie aka Oderus Urungus, and was dating the bass players cousin for a bit. I have partied with some of the guys a few times. They were just local Richmond, Virginia guys before they got big. They put on allot of shows at the smaller local venues in the fan area of Richmond. I always came home from those shows just filthy. Suprisingly normal dudes out of costume. One of my friends sold them a spray insulation gun that wound up being a butt cannon that shot colored grits all over the audience. Also a couple of guys from Lamb of God went to school there too at the end of my term, never met them though. Richmond has a great metal scene. As far as horror flicks, I too am a big fan, I love Dead Alive and of course the Evil Dead series, but my very favorite is Rob Zombies “The Devils Rejects” big fan of Sherry Moon, Sid Haig and Bill Mosely. Let me know if you know of any I may have not seen that you think I may like.
I know out of costume David Brockie and crew are regular guys, depending on your definition of regular. I’m not so much of a fan of LoG, but one of my friends is. I don’t really listen to much mainstream metal, and definitely nothing that is played on mainstream radio. The most mainstream I listen to that I can think of off the top of my head would be Deicide, and Gorguts. My fav metal band would be Ninnghizhidda, however they only made 2 cd’s and no longer exist. I mostly listen to European Black/Death/Doom metals. House of 1k corpses is in my top 10, right along with anything Bruce Campbell. It’s one of the few movies I’ve ever went to a theater and watched. Sincerely, one of the only ones I didn’t feel like I got jacked on the extreme ticket prices. Are you into Indi films, like stuff from Troma? They make great low budget horror, and a lot of crap low budget horror too. They also are the kings of gratuitous nudity in films. Here is me after a Gwar show this past Dec.
Troma made the best/worse post war movie ever “Shell Shock”. I mean when the mafia wants to use a guys baby for perverted reasons and his brother overdosed on herion (by useing an old coathanger to pock his vein and then dumps the bag over the puncture wound and dies) and you can’t feel anything but laughter you know the guy isn’t in a great movie. Though you have to give the movie balls points for the scenes that are supposedly in veitnam having the same flora as up State New York. Great movie definately worth a watch if you like terrible movies.
Funny you should mention Low Budget Pictures, I have been watching a few of the Chris Seaver movies lately…they are soo bad they are actually kind of funny. They even have Mulva 2 that you can watch online on Netflix lol.
