Alien 3 lost me at the very beginning, when they killed off Newt and Hicks. Sorry, but you lose my two favorite characters in Aliens, I'm gonna hate you forever!
Xander: Just once I'd like to run into a cult of bunny worshippers. Anya: Great. Thank you very much for those nightmares.

I agree with Kathy. Alien 3 lost me at the first scene.

Never saw Alien3 or Alien!Sandwich, but now I kinda want to.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I haven't seen any Alien movie, but the alien sandwich hybrid is sorta the "science" of The Fly, right?

That's exactly where it grabbed me. Hard core, man. Hard core.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Pretty much.
Ooh, the SciFi channel could do a movie about teleporation called Egg Salad Man.

That, and my mental image of the director, who spoke no English on set, directing the action scenes by waving his hands and shouting "ALIEEEEEEEEEEENS!!!"
Despite my love of Delicatessen, Amélie, and all things Jeunet, I've heard so many bad things about Alien: Resurrection that I've never even attempted it.

This is great:
Sens. Tom Coburn (R-OK) and Barack Obama's (D-IL) bill creating a "google" for government spending was just voted out of committee and heads to the Senate floor. The new government feature, courtesy of the OMB, creates a single searchable database that lists the amount of taxpayer dollars received in the past 10 fiscal years and an itemized breakdown of each spending project (thanks to Rightmarch.com for the email pointing this out). Five words: What took them so long?
What a wonderful idea.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Guess what, the office just surprised me with a birthday cake and sang and everything. Sweet. We usually only do cards, so the cake was extra-nice. And my acutal birthday isn't until Sunday. Woo hoo--what a great way to start the Robin Turns 50 Celebratathonapalooza.

There are parts of Alien: Resurrection that I like and parts that I loathe (like the alien baby....)
