Death Sentence

Hear death sentence is so bad it made my buddy physically ill. Bad as in shitty. Apparently they kill his son because of an urban legend involving flashing high beams (wicked retarded). Also hear John Goodman is the only redeeming factor.

My bad, I meant Sam Peckinpaugh. Which reminds me of Cross of Iron.

I find Crank and Harsh Times enjoyable from the newer movies and Harsh Times has an over the top asshole in it which is something at least albeit he lacks the decency and style of the real heroes.

Harsh Times? Are you serious? That movie was pretty bad but in a funny way. Christian Bale as a gangster was comedy of the year.

I haven't seen any preview for Death Sentence but Im kinda interested because it has Kevin Bacon in it and stuff. I might rent it when it comes out on DVD.

Crank was another pseudo-remake: DOA.

The only cool thing about Crank is the ringtone.

I don't profess any great love of Morrowind, kinda like games like Everquest 2 it is something to do to pass the time. As far as being an RPG I think both of those games are severely lacking.

Anyways, Kevin Bacon and the Elder Scrolls are more than a little unrelated...or are they?

Kind of the way Hilary Swank and Josh Hartnet in a neo-noir crime drama driected by that contemptible hack Brian De Palma was the funniest shit I saw all last year? I might have to check that out...

Yeah, I saw this crappy movie on tvlinks.

I'd give it two "this thread sucks". The movie was terrible, but *spoiler if you care* nothings quite like seeing some guy go on a would be punisher, then whoops, wife and kid take a bullet in the squish because you couldn't let it go.

Only good part. The end was trash.
