I gotta admit, I tried watching VH and couldn't get through the first 30 minutes.
Your mistake was in trying to watch beyond the first 10. Once the screen switches from b/w to color, switching to a different movie is advisable.
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

VH was fun. Stop grinching.
You think strange things are fun. What I could stand to sit through of VH was crap of the worst kind. UGH!
Sean, i have to agree with you. i went to see it at the theatre and considered walking out. there have been, like, three movies that i've seen in the theatre where i've wanted to walk out.
awful movie. awful.
I went into the movie expecting camp, got camp. Not great camp, but serviceable camp.
I disliked both Underworld and Van Helsing. But at least I got the chance to mock the latter with Buffistas.
Different subject, my friends and I were discussing actors who never (or at least extremely rarely) die in movies and hit upon the fact that Liam Neeson "always" dies. We thought back through the movies we'd seen him in and the only one we immediately came up with where he lived was Rob Roy. I'm sure people here can rattle off plenty of others, though.
Breakfast on Pluto, Darkman, Kinsey.
(And probably not Batman, if the franchise lasts long enough to bring him back.)
And in Narnia he came back, so it doesn't really count.
The Woody Allen movie -- Husbands and Wives, I think?
And he was in the Steve Martin movie where Steve Martin was a charlatan preacher -- Leap of Faith, maybe?
He didn't die in either of those.
t edit Oh, and Schindler's List.
He didn't die in Nell, did he? And I haven't seen Gun Shy, but since it's a romantic comedy I doubt anyone offs him at the end.
Love, Actually.
In case anyone was unsure - 40 Year Old Virgin = STUPID.
I know, I know. I was not well last night.
