I'm glad someone got the joke. And touché with the green eggs and ham.. Wish I had thought of it.

Movies:
Equilibrium (little campy but still amazing.. Stars Christian Bale)
American Psycho (also starring Bale)
Sin City (Frank Miller is a genious)
300 (see above)
Black Hawk Down (true story, way fucking better than that garbage Saving Private Ryan)
Tears of the Sun (Bruce Willis and Monica Bellucci)
The Entire works of Kevin Smith (only watch the first hour of Chasing Amy trust me)
Shoot 'em Up (Campy as hell. I've never seen actors chew scenery like this before, but its still really good)
3:10 to Yuma (For and Australian and a Welshman the main actors put out the greatest western in a long time)
Television:
Bleach (its the only anime I can bring myself to watch.)
Jericho (Skeet Ulrich and crew make a damn good post apocalyptic show)

i really thought american psycho was done ridiculously poorly in comparison the book...it seemed to loose the whole psychological aspect which stephen king books have habit of loosing when made into movies

It's a good thing it's not a Stephen King novel then.

It was trash compared to the book but I still think it captured a lot of the character involved. Sure its a little campy because of the poor transition but comparing it to a Stephen King movie... Thats just coldhearted and mean spirited...

i compare it that wasy becasue it was the only thing i could think of off the top of my head that get's fucked by american simplicity so often...outside prehaps comic book movies but that could be going further
