Last movie you watched?

"The Other Guys" (2010)

Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg are a pair of dimwit NYC cops who stumble onto a plot to drain the Police Pension Fund. An occasionally funny action comedy that could've used a lil' more "action."

Not great, but I've seen a lot worse too.

Love & Other Drugs - I will say that it was an ok movie. I don't hate that I watched it. I keep wanting to call it Sex & Other Drugs. I love Anne Hathaway and the amount of sex in this movie just makes me want to mix up the title. and as I said, I love Hathaway and after this it hasn't changed at all.

GREEN HORNET tonight, it was good I guess. To me it didn't seem to decide on a tone. Lots of slapstick violence, but lots of deaths, funny parts, but not overall funny enough to really be a comedy. It would have been better if they had went with one direction or another. It seems a lot of movies are like that lately, I guess people don't seem to mind

A double feature of vintage Roger Corman drive-in cheapies:

 

"Attack of the Giant Leeches"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ek43qsMoiUw&feature=related

Mutant leeches are draining the blood out of Florida swamp dwellers, and it's up to a hunky Game Warden to find and destroy 'em. I was prompted to dust this one off after reading in the paper that Yvette Vickers (the hot blonde chick seen briefly in this trailer) was found dead in her Hollywood home this week.

 

"Last Woman on Earth"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FoCNY8ufeo0

"Twilight Zone"-ish story of an (unhappily) married couple and their lawyer (!) on vacation in Puerto Rico. When the trio resurface after a scuba diving expedition they discover that while they were "under," everyone on the surface is dead due to an "unexplained accidental interruption of oxygen." Yes, really. Naturally, with two dudes and only one woman left on Earth, the inevitable love triangle ensues.

Doolan's Cadillac - based on a Stephen King short story, I guess this wasn't bad at all. Just a variation on your typical revenge story, I guess, but entertaining enough.

 

Driftwood - another kind of typical story about a detention center and the kids in it. Like the above, nothing outstanding but not a bad movie by any means. Kept me interested.

 

Dark Water - and the trio is complete. Again, nothing outstanding, but genuinely creepy at times. I did get bored early but that was just because I had other things on my mind. Paused the movie, went out on a photo journey, came back and watched the rest with enough interest. Solid film.

"Shadow Zone: The Undead Express"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vl6_tN71HuY

 

Godawful silly, snail-paced made for TV 'spooky' flick apparently aimed at young teens (think R.L. Stine's "Goosebumps," or a kiddie "Tales from the Crypt" - the movie even starts with an introduction from a Crypt-Keeper style narrator) about a New York teenager who discovers a troop of vampires who've been trapped in an abandoned subway tunnel for decades. They, of course, want to use him as their ticket back to the surface. Not nearly as interesting as it probably sounds. Dumb-diddy-dumb-dumb-dumb. My 8 year old loves the "Goosebumps" series of books/videos but he was bored stiff by this flick within 15 minutes. Can't say I blame him.

Yea but you get Christian Slater!

 

On topic House Bunny.

 

Funny in that Adam Sandler kind of way. Certainly could have used more skin. ::))

"The Green Hornet"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PMA-taGtfXs

 

The '60s TV classic gets an action-comedy update starring Seth Rogen (!) as Britt Reid, the crusading newspaper honcho by day, crime fighter by night. It was a decent flick but it would've worked better if it had concentrated less on the "comedy," because the constant banter between Britt and Kato feels really forced after a while. The action scenes are well done, but I gotta say, Bruce Lee never needed fancy "Matrix" style slo-mo effects or CGI assistance when he kicked ass as Kato.

 

Sharp-eyed metal geeks will want to watch for the blink-and-you'll-miss-it cameo appearance by the members of Anvil, who are seen briefly during a nightclub scene.

 

I used a free rental I'd earned from RedBox to check this out, so for that price obviously I'm not gonna complain too much. :lol:

    • Looks like I've got a bit of catching up to do. I've been absent from the forums, and mostly listening to the classics. 
    • It's not a lack of response, it's an actively negative response. They appear to be blocking people and other organisations from sending aid. Really strange. 
    • Glad you're okay, @whiplash1972. I can't imagine what that must be like.
    • If you go to the "edit song details" menu, you can edit the displayed lyrics ( handy to get rid of ugly brackets and prompts ), change the song title and change the thumbnail image.  You'd be able to do that to your tracks as well I think. Create a playlist for each of your albums and use your album covers as the images for your playlists.  They present pretty well on suno. The below link is for my playlist.    As for the vocals, I don't mind having female vocals on some of my tracks. As you mentioned earlier, I have absolutely no musical expertise whatsoever when it comes to instruments and I cannot sing for shit. I sort of think that it's like someone writing a song and then giving it to an Artist, Male or female, to interpret it musically. Think Desmond Child writing for Bon Jovi and also Joan Jett, or great songs by Jeff Paris being recorded by Vixen. Am I comparing myself to Desmond Child and Jeff Paris when it comes to songwriting talent? Hmmm... yes,  I think so.       https://suno.com/playlist/1581a017-9d55-4b0f-8ea8-555aa5b11d00
    • Good safe and well with the footage I've seen on news here in Australia it must be scary.
    • I can tell you that at the very least, there are people from FEMA working with some of the local businesses (my employer included) as far as looking at what aid is available to them. On the flip side, I've heard that one of the FEMA directors "got an attitude" with a few folks in the Asheville area and got popped in the mouth. I can't confirm that, just a story that's making the rounds. 
    • Glad you and yours are ok Mike. There's been a lot of buzz on social media about the LACK of response from FEMA and the current admin. Have you seen or heard anything on the ground one way or the other?
    • Not sure if anyone has noticed my absence over the last 10 days, but I've only been able to sign in a few times from work over the course of that period. As some of you may know, on Friday, September 27th, Hurricane Helene slammed into western North Carolina and absolutely devastated this area, leveling entire towns in its path. In my 52 years on this planet, I've never seen destruction like this with my own eyes.  While my home and property were spared any major problems, our road looked like a damn warzone with all the trees and powerlines down. We were literally trapped like rats in a maze for several days, as even though some good samaritans were able to cut their way through the downed trees so we could leave the neighborhood, all roads leading out of this area were closed off, either due to trees and lines down, or due to flooding.   I was out of work for six days, as my employer had no power. We had no power here at the house for 9 days, with it being restored late yesterday evening. We lost several hundred dollars worth of food that thawed out from our fridge and freezers. No hot water after day one, no cell signal for several days, no stores or restaurants open for several days... If it sounds like I'm complaining, I assure you, I am not. I am grateful. My family and friends are blessed, as we're all pretty much back up and running now. While there was some severe flooding here in Morganton just around two miles from my house, overall, it was MILD around here. Once you drive a mere 20 miles up the road to a little town called Old Fort in McDowell County, and everything west from there, it is exponentially worse. Huge chunks of Asheville under water, Chimney Rock literally wiped off the map, Spruce Pine damn near wiped away, small towns with no communication to the outside world with people struggling. It is BAD here in Western NC, and it's going to take a LONG time for things to get back to some semblance of normal for ALOT of people.  I just felt the need to post and let anyone who might have noticed I was MIA that I am fine, but that alot of good people are not. Please keep western North Carolina in your thoughts and prayers, and if that's not your thing, drink one for all of us tonight. Here are a few links that I've shared over the last week on FB that show the devastation around here... https://fb.watch/v331QebVRJ/ https://www.facebook.com/100067755911039/videos/1069274148086583/ https://www.facebook.com/share/p/ER9b6tv8oj84QuWb/ https://www.facebook.com/share/p/9MpnKZUAx4m5oy3y/ All these aerial shots are from around 1-2 miles from my house: https://www.facebook.com/share/v/vux5WpAqeMDcNMhS/ https://fb.watch/v33x13dnTf/ https://www.facebook.com/share/p/V6RPz7HiiMhrBsfn/ https://www.facebook.com/share/p/vvEuMCm7We6fitZ9/ https://www.facebook.com/share/v/jE1utxkfNLeKEM9S/ Park Rangers in Chimney Rock managed to get the flag raised up again...  
    • I've got a solid top 3 at this point.  At least for me, these 3 are heads and shoulders above everything else: 1.  Kissin' Dynamite 2.  Eclipse 3.  Maverick After that, it's really a hodgepodge of stuff.  New Roses, Daughtry (Only an EP but digging it), Collateral, Sebastian Bach, Judas Priest, Nestor, End Machine.  I'd probably put them in about that order at the moment.
