    Hey, that's the best way of telling someone they're fired that I can come up with off the cuff.

    Plan9, since I'm noticing a pattern in your visual representation of yourself, I really think you need to consider this as an option in the near future:

    Just a friendly suggestion.

    I'm so glad I got that paper done last night. Now today I can chill and work on my CPF (which is actually kind of fun when you're not filling it out under duress).

    While I'm a huge fan of Terminator 2, I feel Arnold's very best was 1987's Predator.

    Larger than life characters, amazing acting for an action flick. Real masterpiece.

    Commandos getting slaughtered by an alien trophy hunter... serious business.

    Well yes, of course Predator is superior to Terminator 2 in many ways, particularly when viewed in an insomniac stupor at 3 in the morning.

    But that smile... those teeth!

    My favourites of his films are Predator and Last Action Hero. That blend of making fun of most of the standard clichés while mixing in some serious real world elements worked perfectly.

    Your concern is really very touching :rolleyes:


    Honestly, I'm just mad I didn't finish the lawn. And until we fix the mower (or buy a new one), I can't mow at home, either. Harumph.

    If we're talking about shitty action movies, I feel like Tremors needs to be brought up. It may not be Arnold, but it really is Kevin Bacon's best work.

    I already tried the goat suggestion.
    Apparently, Lordeden is concerned that the food truck nearby would prepare it for lunch.

    I like all of the Tremor films, but the first is the best. The 4th? one/prequel was decent as I recall though and going back 100 or so years was a good change.

    Nothing beats Reba McEntire going apeshit on some groundworms.

    Speaking of "action films", one of my favourites is They Saved Hitler's Brain -
    "They Saved Hitler's Brain is a 1969 science fiction film that was adapted for television from a shorter theatrical feature film, Madmen of Mandoras, directed by David Bradley. The film was lengthened with about twenty minutes additional footage shot by UCLA students at the request of the distributor. As the original footage was shot several years earlier, the differences in costumes and production values are rather obvious."
    I stress that last part. The continuities errors in this are classic, the car chase scene is a prime example. The time of day for what is supposedly one contiguous scene shifts from full cycle from early morning to noon and then evening (not necessarily in that order). Hilarious movie that ranks up there with Ed Wood's Plan 9 from outer Space on the list of Golden Turkeys.
