Edited on Mon Apr-18-05 08:10 PM by Rabrrrrrr
I need an "artistic and well done" fix after watching that POS Star Wars Episode I.

:puke:

Kinda like I need a Coltrane fix after accidentally/being forced to listening to Kenny G; or need a Yes fix after someone forces me to listen to pedantic shit music like Beach Boys or Billy "I Suck" Joel or American Idol.

Fuck.

2. And then, "They Live"

3. I haven't seen that one yet! I really need to.
Er no, wait - if that's the one with the wrestler, with the magic eyeglasses, I've seen about 20 minutes of it.

6. It is so good, it's a "pre-cognitive" documentary. It is just perfect.
And a knock out ending.

5. How completely weird; we watched those in reverse order yesterday
"The Thing" was on cable, so we watched it. Later in the evening, the s.o. had a podrace jones, so we watched that.

Ever notice how much like Dark Helmet (Spaceballs) Darth Maul looks near the end of the movie, at the beginning of the climactic lightsaber battle, just before he takes his hood off? It cracks me up every time.
