The_Quadfather (8/19/2008)My biggest complaint is how everyone speaks in a god damn whisper while the other effects, i.e., motorcycle and car engines, explosions, etc. are entirely way too loud. I spent half the movie adjusting the volume. A few months ago after someone brought up Re-Animator on this thread, I rented Bride of the Reanimator. I had the same sound consistency problem you just mentioned with that one. There weren't captions on the disc either, so I got pissed off and didn't even finish it.

| After watching Escape from NY & LA I decided to check out another cult classic: Big Trouble in Little China. I'd only seen a few bits and pieces of this one over the years. It's a lot of fun and a crazy blender of genres as far as action/comedy/kung-fu/fantasy. Lately I've been selling a lot more DVDs then buying, but think I'm going to have to get that one for my collection. I think to complete my Kurt Russell/John Carpenter run, I'm going to have to rent The Thing which is another cult classic I've never seen all the way through. I watched an indie horror flick last night called Otis about a fat retarded guy that kidnaps girls and makes them into his twisted prom dates. It was decent. It was a lot more horror satire than it was scary or tense. A lot of the jokes and acting were really lame but it had a few moments of brilliance.

| I've been watching a bunch of old Samurai movies that nobody on here probably cares about so I'll spare you all that. I did see Hancock though and it was not so great. The first half was awesome but about halfway through there are couple plot twists that are totally lame and sappy and stupid. Again, it's pretty hard not to like Will Smith, but the script and plot in the second half ruin it. Supposedly it's based on a comic book though, which I've never read or seen, so maybe some of the dumbness originated there.

I know we've never met and you'll probably never read this.
There are certain things your voice does to me, it makes me feel the ground
and sky again.
How sad it is when you spill your guts on the paper.
It only neglects you and never relieves.
In every corner and space I search for you,
I've only found your vocal cords.
Hate that I'm never certain of what needs what most.
All day your songs spin me into a romance repeatedly to the sky.
Scream over and over again repeatedly to the sky.
In every corner and space I search for you,
I've only found your vocal cords.
Hate that I'm never certain of what needs what most.

Watched Pulse a few days ago. Sick film. Not big on that genre so I have no basis for comparison. But it was pretty twisted. Kinda made me think the main character was pretty stupid, though.

Missed Josh's post originally but I used to love watching poorly dubbed kung fu movies. Samurai movies fit right in to that genre. If I had more time I would watch more of both.
