"You know, if I ate a sandwich, and then you cloned me, you would not end up with a human-sandwich hybrid!!!"

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

I haven't seen any Alien movie, but the alien sandwich hybrid is sorta the "science" of The Fly, right?

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

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

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.

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....)

On the other hand, I despise Alien Resurrection with a passion, and that Joss did script doctor work for it only exacerbates the badness, in my book.

Not just doctoring, I'm afraid - I think that was his baby entirely, but with director-ordered changes that he fought tooth and nail (I think Michael Wincott's death, now with extra-stupidity, was one of major bones of contention), not unlike the Buffy movie. There was a great interview in the Onion (I think) where he got into details on that (and also why he'll never be casting Donald Sutherland in anything).

The fascinating thing with it is you can totally map the majority of the smuggling crew to the characters in FIREFLY (not to mention that the whole science station had a big whiff of Alliance to it).

I love that Sneakers somehow managed to make this list. I have an irrational love of that movie and usually no one seems to have heard of it.

I love love love Sneakers as well, and I am surprised no one else jumped on this comment.
