I am behaving. - Joe Pierce

uh-huh. do you have a bridge for me to buy too? - pea

I do not control the cockknocker, I only point him in a direction and let him do his work. My hands are clean on this one. - Joe Pierce

"I only point him in a direction" So you admit you play a role; therefore, you are not behaving. So I repeat: Behave. - pea

Someone has to control him, if I didn't point him at those who deserved it he might just walk up to innocent people and start punching. I'm really just doing a service. - Joe Pierce

Don't let her tell you what to do, Joe!!! - Baroness Von Cut-A-Bitch

You'd think you'd want me to focus my attentions elsewhere as it frees you up from having to listen to me. - pea

Eh. Slow news day on the West Coast. - Baroness Von Cut-A-Bitch

Silly Kaia. You just don't like it when I don't pay attention to you is all. - pea

The secret to stopping Pea from being bossy all the time is a well placed Friends quote. - Joe Pierce

You hush. Don't be telling people my secrets. - pea

you can't silence me! - Joe Pierce

You keep talking out of turn and I will and you'll like it. - pea

SMELLY PEAS, SMELLY PEAS, WHAT ARE THEY FEEDING YOU?!?!?! [The only friends quote i know] - Baroness Von Cut-A-Bitch

heh. Of course that would be what you remember from ten years of a show. - pea

I never watched a full episode. I didn't like it. - Baroness Von Cut-A-Bitch

As long as Colin Firth is in it, I don't care how it happens. ;-) - pea

pfft - Joe Pierce

Hollywood studios wouldn't know quality if took bought them a beer in a bar. You have to remember that at the end of the day, it's all about the dollar, dollar bill, y'all. And a lot of these so-called executives are there because they once ran Campbell's Soup, or Xerox, or Home Depot; these are not creative people, they're *business* people. - Derrick

What Derrick said. If they could re-release the original film, somehow convince people it was new and get them to pay for it all over again, they'd probably do that instead of remaking it. Oh, wait, they do that with DVD releases ALL THE TIME. - Jandy, ConcertMaven of FF

Only part of the blame goes to the execs. Some of the blame does actually have to fall on the audiences who keep going for more. It is an unsolvable problem. - Joe Pierce

Personally I enjoy subtitled flicks a lot better. Ran, Seven Samurai, Throne of blood, Goya in Bordeaux, Like Water for Chocolate, Marlena, Roshomon, Run Lola Run, Y Tu Mama Tambien, Amelie, Black Orpheus, The Red Violin, all great foreign movies. I also agree with Derrick, to me the quality of foreign flicks is a lot better but I suppose that may be my own personal opinion. Most of my money goes towards DVD rentals as I loathe sitting in a movie house. Disgusting but that's another topic. - Jeunelle Foster

Which is exactly why I stopped going, Joe. There just isn't a whole lot out there that I want to see, sadly. My home viewing via Netflix has gone up accordingly. - Derrick

Joe is not wrong. Execs are out to make a buck, but they also perpetuate the environment that creates the easiest income stream. - Steven Perez

My last visit was about 7 years ago when my sister wanted buttered popcorn so we waited in line to get her popcorn but when I finally reached my turn and ordered I noticed that the attendant had a really bad case of dandruff and her stringy black hair was hanging down in the popcorn. At first I thought she just had grey roots, boy was I wrong. We both turned to each other and as sisters... more... - Jeunelle Foster

This is why I was so sad and despondent after going to film school; I learned how to be incredibly creative, how to run a set and make movies from idea to script to shooting to post production, but didn't learn very much at all about the *business* side of it. :( - Derrick

business hurts art in ways that you can never anticipate. - Joe Pierce

One bad experience (with the concessions, no less, not anything to do with actually watching the film) seven years ago has kept you out of all cinemas ever since? Wow. I've been in some pretty gross theatres, but I've also been in some that were amazing. My home set-up is nice, but I'd still go the cinema every time if I could afford it. - Jandy, ConcertMaven of FF

I'm with Jandy, I love the theater experience when I can go. I'd say if you need a snack just buy something sealed and your problem is solved (chocolate covered cookie dough is a good choice). I don't eat theater popcorn because it is popped in coconut oil, and that makes me yak. - Joe Pierce

Well we all have our faults but I didn't want to pay $10-$12.00 to sit in poop or flying cockroaches or that rat near my foot. Somehow that took the enjoyment out of it for me but you know everyone's different. Next time if ever, I'll take my gun with me and just shoot the next thing I see crawling past the side of my eye. - Jeunelle Foster

I'm not saying you should - just that all theatres are not like that. I just avoid the gross theatres the next time and go to a nicer one. May take a few bad experiences to figure out which ones are which, but some theatres are pristine - I was only objecting to the generalization that because of one nasty theatre, all theatre-going wasn't worthwhile. That's all. - Jandy, ConcertMaven of FF

I didn't say anything of the sort yet I did decide for whatever reason to not bother good or bad period. - Jeunelle Foster

I'm sorry, then, I extrapolated too much from your original comment. - Jandy, ConcertMaven of FF

Roflmao....Girl I don't even take myself seriously so don't worry about it. But seriously I prefer my own TV and Dvd's at least I can rewind them when I missed something. - Jeunelle Foster

LOL, cool. I was momentarily afraid the overly hot temperature in my office and how much I'm ready to go home had made me get too snippy unintentionally. I just find that I'm too distractable when I watch things at home ("ooh, the internet, ooh, I should make food, ooh, there's something going on in the courtyard, ooh, did I remember to pay that, ooh, what the heck is my DVR recording... more... - Jandy, ConcertMaven of FF

"...for the restivus." - Mike Cavaliere

Your holiday isn't better than my holiday Pea! *marks down something for the airing of the grievances* - Joe Pierce

How bout blaring the Xmas music in supermarkets already - gotta love that right? :( - Patrick Jordan

Tell me you're going to Ustream the Feats of Strength! - Spidra Webster

There are 2 good Christmas songs, one of them is "James Penguin" by Brad Paisley, or the Trans Siberian Orchestra medley (I think it is actually two tracks meshed into one). - Joe Pierce

Mine has presents. How is that not better? - pea

ustreaming the feats of strength would cause a rift in the time-awesome continuum and we'd all be zapped into and out of existence. Pea, yours also has a breaking and entering cookie thief. The fact that he drops a few parcels during his escape doesn't make up for that. - Joe Pierce

plus if you remember I have unfinished business with the fat man http://ff.im/7Fwat - Joe Pierce

Yes please and take lot's of photos. I know you look good in a g-string - Jeunelle Foster

Don't be silly, Joe. Santa Claus is a lie. Everyone knows that. - pea

Fighting in a g-string sounds a little bit dangerous to me. My family fights dirty, chain mail would be a safer bet. Pea, The greatest trick that Santa ever pulled was convincing the world that he doesn't exist. - Joe Pierce

You have an answer for everything don't you? You win this round. I'm too tired to keep up. - pea

time for feats of strength! - Morgan Haley

i wanna see Pea and Joe fight each other in g-strings - Morgan Haley

uhm, yeah, no. :) - pea

anyone wanting to see Joe do anything in a g-string might do good to seek therapy It wouldn't be fun or funny...just kind of sad, and a little sinister. - Joe Pierce

this is tough, but i think a bad remake because potentially a whole generation could see only the remake and ignore the original. - Mary Carmen

Yeah, do I have to pick? - Glenn Slaven

A bad sequel, I think. A bad remake might interest people in looking up the original. A bad sequel takes a fond memory of a great movie and tarnishes it. - Spidra Webster

I'm going with the bad remake. It can ruin the original - Davis Freeberg

I hated the Tim Burton Charlie and the Chocolate Factory; loved the Gene Wilder one. Whatever I just described, that one. - Derrick

Remake, Derrick. - Alex Scoble

My feeling is a bad remake is worse than a bad sequel. For almost the same, but inverse reasons that Spidra mentioned. An average young film goer being exposed to "Tim Burton's Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" and hating it would in my eyes be less likely to go out and see Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory." If however "Wonka 2: Electric Boogaloo" was coming out and had a fantastic looking trailer (the trailers LIE) that same kid would be pushed towards the original to catch up. - Joe Pierce

Both! - Jeff P. Henderson

I think bad sequel. Both are kind of attempts to cash in, but sequels in general seem to me to be more of a blatant cash-grab. Remakes can be updates or new takes on the story, or new versions based on the same material, which at least in theory can be defended. - Jandy, ConcertMaven of FF

A bad remake, I think. It derails anyone else trying to do a quality remake after that. Whereas if it is a bad sequel, you can give it a few years for the stink to drift away, and re-invent the thing. After all, Batman was restarted rather easily, but no one is ever again going to want to remake, "The Avengers." Even though the original show kicked a superior amount of ass, the remake of that as a film has made it impossible. - Ciaoenrico

I think remakes muddy the waters of the original and I'm not sure about a sequel pushing someone to seek the original. - Rahsheen ™, Coach of FF

You don't sound all that sorry. - Joe Pierce

Didn't say I was. - Amber, Random Time Lord

I pwn this!@! - Katie: Whelmed Overly

Fifth Element is definitely one of the top 3 movies with a phallically inspired hairdo in the history of ever. - Joe Pierce

It's on Netflix Instant Watch...I forget if you have Netflix or not. Also, yes, you should OWN Fifth Element! SRSLY. I mean, come on...LEELOO MOOLTIPASS for crying out loud! - Jandy, ConcertMaven of FF

As a matter of fact I did own Fifth Element, but I lost a huge part of my DVD collection in my move. I've also had to drop Netflix until some sucker gives me a job. Being financially responsible Sucks! - Joe Pierce

Boo to all of that. Losing DVDs, dropping Netflix, being unemployed, being financially responsible....BOO. Well, maybe not that last thing. But kinda. :/ - Jandy, ConcertMaven of FF

losing the DVDs really hurt the most. It was a lot more devastating to me than is probably healthy. - Joe Pierce

I have it on... VHS, DVD, Lazerdisc, VCD, Digital copy & Bluray... It's the first movie I buy on any new medium. - Tsali, The Native of FF

http://friendfeed-media.com/b76bf7f... - Alfredo

Multipass! - Chris, Taskerrific Guy

It's on Netflix instant watch if you have that: http://www.netflix.com/Movie... - Brandon

I have this movie on almost every medium I can imagine. - Josh Haley

haha. I was just about to ask that. So now we know I won't be earning a dollar. - pea

a simple look at his IMDB should tell you what it is. I'm very predictable. - Joe Pierce

Summerland? *ducks and hides* - pea

Firefly - Spidra Webster

Oh, Spidra. Guessing the right one is no fun. - pea

I ended up recording it instead of watching it. Clone Wars is kind of the business. And I guess I'll be home from work tomorrow, so there's that. - Derrick

It's not an easy guess, pea! I'm a big Firefly fan and only found out it was Efron in that part well after I'd watched it a zillion times. - Spidra Webster

Besides, my metaphorical wallet is empty. - Spidra Webster

Awwww poor witteh bitteh babeh... BWHAHAHAHAAA - Yolanda

From one sick man to another, be well, brother Joe. - Derrick

ahem, excuse me. What I meant to say was.. I'm so sorry you're not feeling well. - Yolanda

Pea, so do I! Thank you Derrick, and you be well also. Yolanda, this is no laughing matter, I could die of mild discomfort and irritability. And then how would you feel? ...I got boned too, I didn't even get that awesome deep sick voice out of the deal. - Joe Pierce

Did you just say you got boned? Uhm, TMI, sir. T-M-I. but feel free to send me an email with the details. - pea

You feel like you have Ebola Zaire? Oh dear. I'd recognize that little sucker anywhere. Are you vomiting black crystallized bits of virus and blood while bleeding out of your eyes and belly button and bottom yet? - veo

what family are you referring to? - Jim Hearts FF

His granddaughter, his son, his daughter in law. The kids at the funeral (I'm not sure what relation they were to him). So far all of them have been pretty reprehensible in one way or another. - Joe Pierce

oh, yeah. Okay. They're barely in the film though... and, you know, he did raise the two sons. - Jim Hearts FF

How does he expect to have a loving close-knit family if he didn't raise a loving close-knit family? He got what he raised. - pea

I agree Pea... I thought that was kind of the point of their characterizations in the movie. - Jim Hearts FF

Very true, Pea. I felt bad for him that he just didn't get it until so late in life. - Yolanda

he must have gotten some at some point... he does have two sons. - Jim Hearts FF

Jim O_o bad. ;-) - pea

who? Me? - Jim Hearts FF

Bad parenting can only carry it so far, at a certain point they are responsible for themselves. - Joe Pierce

and they tried. they bungled it up, but they tried and he threw that in their faces. - pea

by trying to convince him on his birthday that he needed to leave his home that he lived in with his wife and go to a retirement home (presumably leaving them to take care of his house)? That is their trying? I would have kicked them out quicker than he did. Or the Granddaughter during his freaking wife's wake busting out the "what are you going to do with the car when you die?" These people aren't even trying. - Joe Pierce

I know, Joe. That was so horrible. That brat. - Yolanda

You can't fool me Johnny, you weren't wearing pants! - Joe Pierce

I put them on just for the dropping... - Johnny Worthington

MOVIE... never saw the TV Series - Harold

That's gonna ruin Christmas - Mary Carmen

TV... I never saw the movie. I heard of it, but never got around to it yet. I think it's a slight age difference thing. Harold and I have a 5 year gap. - Kamilah Gill

Movie - Mary Carmen

There was a TV series? - Ha3rvey (Free hugs!)

FINE, people. So I'm the YOUNGSTER here, huh? I think I was too young when it came out. Too much cussing and sex. I think I was only 6 when the movie came out. The TV show came out when I was in high school. - Kamilah Gill

The name. Is CHET. - Ha3rvey (Free hugs!)

"But first, I wanna butter your muffin." - Ha3rvey (Free hugs!)

I was about 4 when the movie came out, but thanks to the wonder of late night cable, VHS, and basically just having to watch whatever my older brothers were watching, I knew the movie long before the tv show. - Joe Pierce

MOVIE. only movie. you kids! :P - holly

"Gimme the keys, I'll drive!" - Mary Carmen

movie, didnt even know there was a series, :o - chaz2b

I actually enjoyed the tv show when it was on. Not sure if I would these days or not though. It was no Parker Lewis Can't Lose, that's for sure! - Joe Pierce

"An accident? An accident? Do you realize it's snowing in my room goddammit! " - chaz2b

DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW DISRESPECTFUL THAT IS? - Ha3rvey (Free hugs!)

"That's Wyatt's older brother Chet. He's kind of an asshole" - chaz2b

"You're stewed, buttwad! " - Mary Carmen

"How 'bout a nice greasy pork sandwich served in a dirty ashtray?" - Harold

Movie - Amber, Random Time Lord
