Re: What Made you Smile/What Ticked you off Today?

Last week I was at a thrift store and was leafing through a book I was thinking of buying. I found a nice crisp $20 bill in it. :D

Technically both Origin and In Space still fit in the Leprechaun/Returns time frame since they occupy the ends of both timelines.

Re: What was the last movie you've seen?

Just watched Leprechaun Returns - it was far better than I expected. It picks up 25 years after the first one (the others don't exist for this movie's timeline) - quite a bit smoother than any of the other ones. Lotsa of humor (of the black variety) and Linden Porco/Hornswoggle do a fine job in lieu...

Re: What was the last movie you've seen?

Mrs. Armitage and I watched Apocalypto tonite -we really enjoyed it. The latter portion was very reminiscent of one of my favorite films - The Naked Prey from 1965. Both movies are pretty intense - but well worth watching if you enjoy such things. I stumbled on this trailer today whilst looking for ...

Re: What was the last movie you've seen?

God, The Seventh Voyage of Sinbad. I had a high school video production class that required we cut a trailer for that using two VHS players. I must have watched that film thirty times in one week. It's tough to go back to, so I'd rather seek out the schlock like Hercules and the Captive Women. Spea...

Re: What was the last movie you've seen?

I also like a good (or bad) spaghetti Western, and I sometimes review them. Unfortunately, they seem to get the least attention amongst the few cult fans I talk with, but hopefully they'll get their due once again. Heh - peplums are even more overlooked.Sones https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A5L9pA4...

Re: What was the last movie you've seen?

Mrs.Armitage and I went and saw "They Shall Not Grow Old" - it is pretty amazing.

If you have any interest in history this is a must see. If you do go, stick around for the making of feature after the credits. Well worth the extra half hour.
