I wish I had a theater in my house. I knew a guy who was loaded and had like a small movie theater on his property. I tried to get him to let me hook smash up but he said it wouldn't work.

The first Crank was a piece of crap as well.

The problem with Jason Statham is that hes a FANTASTIC actor...but hes in the worst movies ever aside from The Italian Job and Snatch.

The One=horrible.
Crank series=horrible.
Transporter=horrible.
Cellular=horrible.
Revolver=horrible.
In The Name Of The King=horrible.

Also, I only go to the movies if a bunch of my friends want to go and I can afford it or its a director I support or a movie I really want to experience in theaters with good special effects etc

Also, has anyone noticed that Tuesday is the new Friday night at the movies? haha

wars not make one great
Well, he was in Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels and that movie is hilarious.

In the Name of the King shouldn't be on your list because Uwe Boll made it and therefore doesn't deserve any kind of recognition as a movie.

stop hitting me, Ricky
There is nothing like seeing an audience-intensive (if that makes sense) movie in a theater.

somewhat of an example: I recently saw Inglorious Basterds at the Fenway Regal 13 in Boston which is pretty much right outside of Fenway Park. When Donnie beats the dude to death with the bat pretty much the entire theater cringed in horror but it was immediately relieved and the entire place went ape**** when he started yelling about being Ted Williams and hitting one out of the park onto Landsdowne St. (the theater is within spitting distance of Landsdowne)
Also Cort has a point in that going to a theater is a huge roll of the dice when it comes to terrible shatty kids. There was an entire ****ing row of 15 year old yapping ****tards texting and talking during the first 5 minutes of IB. Good thing someone notified the theater and an usher kicked them out because they didn't have tickets. One of the kids started yelling "WHY YOU GOTTA SNITCH YO! **** SNITCHES!" as he was being escorted out. I've probably never disliked anyone more then at that very moment.

I want to expect better of you, but I know not to
That's just frame perfect timing...and not all characters can go that far anyways. It has to do with initial dash speed and the character's ability to retain momentum.

-DD
we apparently missed that this was post 66666... sigh...

also, LMFAO @ Jason Statham is a great actor in bad movies, he's just another take on Vin Diesel, who is also terrible. Having a cool voice and being jacked =/= acting.

Crank 1 was at least amusing, crank 2 just left me confused and angry. I still have no idea what the hell the movie was about or what happened or why there was a godzilla fight in it...

going to the movies is more about the exp rather than the movie itself

swift/donald glover: where be ma gif? :(

i wanna play but being carless makes things tricky.

Last time/my first time I went to Hooters I had this like 58 year old woman who took our order and I had terrible wings. So really I just go to Hooters for no reason.

LOL Cort. Amazing.

No Jason Statham is pure genius in Snatch and two smoking barrells....forgot about that movie. its awesome.

He also carries a sense of dark comedy with him and i could see him fitting in great with good movies such as a tarantino flick.

Theres the link. observe the troll in its natural habitat.

Also, the fees and prize split were pretty much set by the venue, not me, so I dont have much control over it. Just the sheer vitriol that i got from a few select members of the competitive brawl scene *gag* make me not want to hold any more brawl tournaments like AT ALL, or at least not post about them on smashboards. Seriously, **** those guys.

Also, i took my grandma to see Barbershop a few years back, and she grew up in Virginia. All the work that Al Roker and Bryant Gumbel put in to her trusting black people, instantly erased.
