More Randomness

Hey, look, an update.

I finally got around to seeing Collateral on Saturday afternoon, and I really liked it. Tom Cruise was great, and he just might make my Top 25 favorite movie villians. Collateral gets four stars from me.

For those of you who enjoy my reviews, I'm working on new ones for The Butterfly Effect and the Buffy The Vampire Slayer movie. Target post date: whenever I feel like it.

Bravo's editing of Pulp Fiction needs some work. They completely erased the existance of the Gimp! Sure, I can understand them wanting to cut back on the homosexual rape, but completly erasing a character (even if he was only around for two or theee minutes) is nuts. They even cut Jules and Vincent deciding to go to Jimmy's after killing Marvin. It was bang, cut to black, "oh man, I shot Marvin in the face," then they're drinking coffee with Jimmy. Oh well, I guess I shouldn't get too worked up. I still have the full version on DVD and video.

The USA Network has been showing Escape From L.A. occasionally, and I can't complain. I love the Escape movies. Too bad there are only two, because there could be several. Maybe Escape From Miami, Escape From Philadelphia, or Escape From Houston. Maybe they could go international with Escape From Tijuana, Escape From London, or Escape From Moscow. I could live with two or three more Snake Plisskin movies. I guess it'd just come down to John Carpenter and Kurt Russell wanting to do it.

In recent horror/sci-fi news, it's been reported that the upcoming Godzilla: Final Wars (which is being made to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Japan's favorite atomic dinosaur) will pit the original Godzilla from Japan against its American counterpart from the 1998 Matthew Broderick movie. That'd be one heck of a movie, and maybe Godzilla can kick the crap out of the American 'Zilla.

With the "versus" craze going on (like Freddy vs. Jason and Alien vs. Predator), there's only one other "versus" movie I can think of. If Peter Jackson's remake of King Kong is a hit next year, somebody should get around to remaking King Kong vs. Godzilla. Besides, Hollywood's going crazy with the remakes of Japanese movies.

All these Beavis & Butthead and Celebrity Deathmatch reruns on MTV2 make me want new episodes of both shows. And Beavis and Butthead watching "Real American" by Derringer is awesome.

"If you live in Butt Town, you gotta get down." Iggy Pop is a genius. Him and Sir Mix-A-Lot should get together and party.

Good news in the computer world: my monitor had been stuck at 640x480x16 for a few months, but somehow fixed itself today. I don't know how, but I don't care. It's fixed, so yay.

I read today that Kevin Smith is will begin filming on the Clerks sequel (titled The Passion of the Clerks) in January.

I want the new WWE "Day of Reckoning" video game. Somebody send me 50 bucks. :)

Decent episode of Raw tonight. The whole Diva Potentials Challenge... whoa. Too bad it wasn't on HBO, because bleeps suck. And Christian's back? I want a Edge/Christian/Jericho ladder match, and I want it now.

Okay, I have nothing else to say. Sutton out.
