'A Hole in the World'
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.
Can someone incarcerate Uwe Boll next?
Seriously.
Free John McTiernan!! Somebody hand me a picket...I'm makin' a sign.
The Thomas Crown Affair. Best remake ever. And one of the most interesting director's commentaries.
Scooter Libby gets off and John McTiernan gets 4 months.
It's a topsy-turvy world we live in.
The Thomas Crown Affair. Best remake ever.
Best Magritte homage ever.
Best Magritte homage ever.
Word.
Although, it got muddied with the 'let's play ball' line, which McTiernan doesn't quite adequately explain. It came down to 'I liked the line.'

Die Hard rules. Rules, I tell you.
Die Hard rules. Rules, I tell you.
Right, Mr. Falcon?!
In the Best Action Picture of all time category I nominate Bad Boys II. Your one stop shop for clever use of corpses.
Problem is, everything else about that movie sucked. I loved the first one a lot, and they'd have to pay me to see a III now.
Although, just for inspiring so much of the Hot Fuzz cinematography--I am grateful to them for that.
Yeah Hot Fuzz went a long way towards convincing me that it's OK that I liked Bad Boys II.
Fuck y'all all. FUCKIN' HARD BOILED!!!! If you've never seen it in a theater (or a really superlative home system) you've never really seen it.
Hard Boiled is on my list. That's the sequel to Infernal Affairs, right?
