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.
Nobody can tell Marmaduke what to do. That's my kind of dog.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
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?

Okay, okay, if we're straying out of English language, I wouldn't even bother comparing Die Hard to Woo's best.

Cough! Gasp! Sacrilege!

Oops, Wikipedia cleared that up. Infernal Affairs is merely referenced in Hard Boiled. Gimme a break: I haven't seen either, yet.

Now tagless for your comfort.
We watched Hot Fuzz the other night. Very fun.
I just got back from 3:10 to Yuma. I'm meh about it. It was well cast--Russell Crowe was a great choice for Ben Wade. But what is it with Alan Tudyk and playing funny supporting characters that bite it??

I'm not sure whether my favorite action movie is Raiders of the Lost Ark or 1941.
