"You could have a six demon bag."
"Fantastic, Egg!  What's in it?"
"Wind, fire, that sort of thing."

I was blown away by CotWR.  I thought it would be a series of cheap gags and other hollywoodian sellout material.  Boy, was I wrong.  References to the original series felt legitimate, instead of wry fan service.  And rather than being mere name-dropping, they actually did clever and witty referencing.  Gotta love getting a Tremors reference into a 'kids' movie.  As usual, they pack loads of sight gags into every frame...anyone else catch the portrait of Chairman Mao?

Most recent movie watched: Grosse Pointe Blank.  Bloody brilliant.  Cusack does the neurotic, mid-life-crisis-d Hitman thing very well.  And making what is essentially a teen after-school special but with an entirely post-20 cast turned out rather better than one might expect.

[Cusack delivers a long, rambling, pointless dissertation on why people kill in order to calm his girlfriend, who has just witnessed him kill someone assigned to knock him off]
"You're a psychopath!"
"No...psychopaths kill for no reason.  I kill for money.  It's a job.  Sorry, that didn't come out right."

Bastardous Bassist:
Speaking of referencing, "Looks like all the bounce has gone from his bungee" is the greatest line in the entire movie.

Grosse Pointe Blank is indeed a quality movie.  I'm glad others agree with me on that one.

KharBevNor:
I love the fact it manages to have a more insane final action sequence than even The Wrong Trousers.

strawberry_gashes:
Uch.  My sister just rented Space Balls.
It was funny a few years ago, now... now it's just dumb.
(The real Star Wars owns!)

tomselleck69:
unhghggh recent movies watched/purchased/rented in the last few days include:

silent hill
bullet in the head
broken flowers
robocop
project A
spetters
martin & orloff
afraid to die

all were at least decent, some excellent. i will let you decide which are which. also, martin & orloff was not worth the purchase, but it was still much funnier than 100% of the standard comedies in theaters.
