Ok, peeps, babby is sleeping, pizza has been consumed and vodka is on standby. Got the movie queued and ready to rock.
- Steven Perez
0:00:20 - BAMBI! WATCH OUT FOR GODZILLA!!!
- Steven Perez
dude, take it off of X4 speed!
- Jim #TeamMonique
One minute in, and we begin with a small, defenseless animal being eviscerated off-screen. Yep, this is going to be chock full of romance.
- Steven Perez
from IM
Wait, she's gonna miss the heat of Phoenix?!?
- Steven Perez
from IM
Forks?!? The town is named Forks?!? In a vampire movie?!?!?
- Steven Perez
from IM
5:15 - Adults using slang. My brain hurts already.
- Steven Perez
from IM
Nice truck, though.
- Steven Perez
from IM
Adults can get down with da lingo?!
- Shevonne
Sadly, no, foxy lady. :D
- Steven Perez

I like the way this movie is setting up the various characters who are going to end up as pizza pockets.
- Steven Perez
from IM
8:40 - And in walk in the vamps. You can tell because they're the pretty ones.
- Steven Perez
from IM
9:40 - This must be the hero. He mopes most majestically.
- Steven Perez
from IM
"totally gorgeous, obviously" - yeah, in that whole Robert Smith all-life-is-pain kinda way. *gag*
- Steven Perez
from IM
this is vintage FF right here.
- Jim #TeamMonique
That look he's giving her? Wondering what blood type she is.
- Steven Perez
from IM
I know what he's thinking - "don'tlookatmyteeth don'tlookatmyteeth don'tlookatmyteeth don'tlookatmyteeth"
- Steven Perez
from IM
"OHGODSHE'SLOOKINGATMYTEETH!!!!" *runs away*
- Steven Perez
from IM
He mumbles so dreamily. *deep schoolgirl sigh* [/a little sarcasm]
- Steven Perez
from IM
No, creepy stalker guy, she doesn't remember you.
- Steven Perez
from IM
"Are there any cute guys?" "Well, there's this one guy who's really cute when he's all mopey ..."
- Steven Perez
from IM
Confront him. Right. Cuz that's what you do with someone you're not interested in.
- Steven Perez
from IM
Wow. He disappears. Maybe he's off killing deer.
- Steven Perez
from IM
Whoops. My bad. He's off killing longshoremen, instead.
- Steven Perez
from IM
Da union ain't gonna like that.
- Steven Perez
from IM
SAFE!
- Steven Perez
from IM
Yes, ice often happens in cold weather places, little one. It's called "winter". I know, something they don't have in Arizona.
- Steven Perez
from IM
16:28 - Don't these guys ever shut up?
- Steven Perez
from IM
Here we go ...
- Steven Perez
from IM
They have an eternity to shut up
- Shevonne
"Hi, I'm Edward, and I'll be your mopey vampire hero in this movie ..."
- Steven Perez
from IM
Don't look in the microscope!!!
- Steven Perez
from IM
Eternal youth at his command, and his first conversational gambit is about the weather?!?
- Steven Perez
from IM
*wondering if the microscope is supposed to be some kind of phallic symbol*
- Steven Perez
from IM
*pout pout* I'm a emo girl with permanent worried eyebrows. My lab partner is really hot but looks really pale and he can stop suvs with his hand. *pout pout*
- Josh Haley
Yep, definitely a phallic symbol.
- Steven Perez
from IM
Did these kids go to the Anakin Skywalker School of Not Really Emoting?!?
- Steven Perez
from IM
"Did your eyes just change?" "Errrrrrr ..." *runs away*
- Steven Perez
from IM
21:15 - "OMG I'M IN LOVE WITH SUPERBOY!!!"
- Steven Perez
from IM
And he totally saved her truck, too. What a dreamboat.
- Steven Perez
from IM
And here comes smarmy vampire doctor. Must have been an off-week on the soaps.
- Steven Perez
from IM
"Your vitals look good. Mind if I check by biting your neck and draining your blood?"
- Steven Perez
from IM
Wow. Mopey and a bad liar. He's definitely the hero.
- Steven Perez
from IM
25 minutes in, and I'm wondering when Blade is going to show up and start offing the cast.
- Steven Perez
from IM
OK, I need a brain break from all this emotional turmoil. Back in ten.
- Steven Perez
from IM
Ah, the things you guys miss when I go make me some tea. I came up with this awesome alternate timeline where Blade and Buffy show up and start killing off the town, just like AVP2. Actually, that movie sucked worse, but hey, I'm only half an hour into TWILIGHT. C'mon, mopey emo kids, don't let me down!!! Suck harder than AVP2!!!
- Steven Perez
from IM
aaaaaaaand, picking it up from the hospital ...
- Steven Perez
from IM
In the greenhouse now. They're having a fight. I think. I can't tell cuz they still have the same expressions on their faces all the time.
- Steven Perez
from IM
hahaha
- Shevonne
I can't wait until you get to the "THIS IS THE SKIN OF A MONSTER!" scene. :D It's my favorite.
- Hookuh Tinypants
Seriously, so far, this is the slowest vampire movie I've ever seen. And that includes the 1931 version of DRACULA.
- Steven Perez
from IM
This may save me from having to watch the movie.
- Just Kidée: Road Warrior
I'm beginning to wonder if I accidentally got a SMALLVILLE episode by mistake ... oh, wait, there's the Superman reference.
- Steven Perez
from IM
Don't feel bad, the books move even MORE slowly. Honestly, someone needs to buy Stephenie Meyer some classes on pacing and plot-building.
- Hookuh Tinypants
It is slow until, for just a few minutes, it's not. Then it's over. The visuals were pretty neat, though, and I enjoyed the music. Definitely wasn't worth $22.99 for a two-disc set.
- Ordinarybug Heather
Holy cow. I'm starting to feel that dull buzzing that indicates brain damage. Usually happens when I find myself watching some teen soap opera by mistake.
- Steven Perez
from IM
Heather: soooooooo, ... you're telling me that the one fight scene from the trailer is pretty much all the action?!? Cuz if that's true, I'm gonna reach for the KILL BILL set and review that instead. :D
- Steven Perez
from IM
rofl I KNEW IT!
- Erin @queenofspain
Erin: It was the booze! I swear!!! :D
- Steven Perez
from IM
35:00 - FINALLY! Creepy stalker guy (I think) buys it - off-screen. WTF?!? Did Nickelodeon fund this movie?!?
- Steven Perez
from IM
I just watched the movie earlier today. I could have saved myself 2 hours and some change by just waiting and reading this. Oh well, live and learn. :)
- Jason Shultz
from twhirl
O. M. G. They're trying on dresses?!? Did I pick up the E! network by mistake?!?
- Steven Perez
from IM
Of course, the local tribe knows all about the vampires. Duh. Why do you think there are no vampires in Native American lore? CUZ THEY KILLED THEM ALL.
- Steven Perez
from IM
Lessee: doesn't like sunlight, eyes change colors, mopey whiney emo mood swings, lousy driver, ... and now telepathy. It's so obvious. Mopey Dude is a mutant. He probably blew in from the Xavier School.
- Steven Perez
from IM
SPECIAL DIET?!?!?
- Steven Perez
from IM
Right, "special diet" - the Adkins diet from hell. Fill up on all the A-negative you want, but stay away from the bread!
- Steven Perez
from IM
(Steven, have you read the books? Who would be the mortal enemies of vampires?)
- Ordinarybug Heather
OK, now he's a stalker.
- Steven Perez
from IM
(Nope.)
- Steven Perez
from IM
(Wait ... books?!? Plural?!?!?!?)
- Steven Perez
from IM
(Four of 'em, and a fifth online somewhere.)
- Ordinarybug Heather
GEEZ! FINALLY! Almost an hour into the film and she finally figures it out. She's a regular Lois Lane, this one.
- Steven Perez
from IM
(FOUR?!? Are they plotted as slowly as this movie?!?)
- Steven Perez
from IM
OK, pop quiz: you've just found out that the dreamy mope in your class is a vampire. Do you (a) stock up on silver and garlic and wait to ambush him and his clan or (b) go off into the woods to interrogate him all alone? If you chose (b), then this movie is for you!
- Steven Perez
from IM
(c) Ask him to turn me into a vampire
- Shevonne
(d) wait for the Daywalker to show and save this movie.
- Steven Perez
from IM
(e) Go Buffy the Vampire Slayer on him and wait for Angel, a real vampire. haha
- Shevonne
Great. Now he's the Flash.
- Steven Perez
from IM
Wait, so now he's a sparkly unicorn?!?
- Steven Perez
from IM
He's the world's most dangerous predator?!? Now I wish that an actual Predator would show up and school his mopey ass.
- Steven Perez
from IM
OK, that's it. I give up. No mas.
- Steven Perez
from IM
Seriously, this movie hurt my brain. The dialogue must have been written by the same 7th-grade lunch table thespians that George Lucas used to write the "romantic" scenes in ATTACK OF THE CLONES. I wasn't expecting anything Whedonesque, but geez, watching this movie was like watching a CW teen drama on Ritalin.
- Steven Perez
from IM
Oy. I'm gonna go crack open that bottle of 120 proof vodka and watch a pre-1999 John Woo movie to cleanse the palate. Congratulations, LET THE RIGHT ONE IN; you're still the best vampire movie from the last 18 months.
- Steven Perez
from IM
Oh, and Leather Donut? You were right, dude: ASS.

You really reviewed this? Give me another Shiner Bock...

As you can see, I only made it half-way through, but that's because I couldn't breathe because I was laughing too much. :D

I am so copying this down for posterity once they burn this joint down. :) This is the thread that kicked off the Tex-Mex Movie Reviews with Haggis.
- Steven Perez
This is a great idea >> you should hold weekly movie reviews :P
- Angelo Rodrigues
I TOTALLY SHOULD! Maybe I can find someone to do them with me! :D
- Steven Perez
Every time a new Twilight movie comes out, I get the urge to finish the review. Then I sober up.

Not to take anything away from TRON: LEGACY (especially as I'm going to see it next week), but if I was gonna do a sequel to an 80's sci-fi movie, I would have chosen THE LAST STARFIGHTER.

THIS
- ωαřмaiden ❤Marrit Woman❤
Plot: 25 years after the events of the original movie, the Ko-Dan Armada has reached Earth, looking to make it an outpost. Alex and Maggie, two of the head rulers of the Star League, send their child back to their homeworld to find new Starfighters and rally the remaining Earth forces against Xur's demented schemes of domination. Good, yes?
- Steven Perez
i'd buy a ticket.

The only question is, who would do the soundtrack? I'm thinking Burial or Faithless, but I don't know.
- Steven Perez
give them time; I'm sure they'll get around to it
- MiniMage
every great sci-fi movie should start in a lovable trailer park!!
- Nicķ
I thought the costumes were in the same style as the original TRON (although, more black light effects rather than just glowing), but the special effects could have used a "cleaner, computer generated" feel. Like, why did the Recognizer need jets coming out of the feet?
- Andy Bakun
Last Starfighter is better than Tron. :-)
- Kol Tregaskes
I loved Starfighter. I also loved how every ship and space-battle scene would eventually be included in an episode of Battlestar Galactica

To discriminate against a thoroughly upright citizen because he belongs to some particular church, or because, like Abraham Lincoln, he has not avowed his allegiance to any church, is an outrage against that liberty of conscience which is one of the foundations of American life. - http://silas216.tumblr.com/post...

Scoble please

(taking off the gloves) MaryB is right on. The Friendfeed community is a cross between the public and the personal (a Facebook-Twitter nexus—bad analogy, but whatever). The sincere can come here and get support. The person behind the personality—that's the sweet spot to the FF community that I know and love.

Getting someone fired: the most fun wingnuts can have while avoiding prison | pandagon.net - http://pandagon.net/index...
Mark H, WoH: Professor MOTHRA, John (bird whisperer) and 2 other people liked this
"Wingnuts have a lot of tactics: lying, screeching, saying racist things and then taking umbrage when you point out that they’re racist, fantasizing out loud about “second amendment remedies”. But getting someone fired is by far their favorite tactic, bar none. It accomplishes so much, if you’re successful! It reinforces the idea that you’re above criticism (gearing you up for the next time someone is targeted for harassment for having the nerve to criticize you), is scares would-be critics into silence, and above all, it fucks someone’s life up tremendously. Actual “second amendment remedies” are dangerous and get you thrown in jail. Getting someone fired, however, is something you can do without any repercussions for yourself. It’s the perfect strategy for the cowardly sadist, and therefore the favorite of wingnuts."

"The latest example (though, to be fair, there’s always half a dozen in process with the wingnutteria) is this harassment campaign against John Abraham, Associate Professor at the University of St. Thomas. Abraham’s Crime Against Wingnuttery is being right about global warming, and as we all know, being right is one of the major ways you can bring down the army of flying wingnut monkeys...

I love the 3rd, 6th and photo of Shayera the best. The last pic of the Erin and Aaron schmoopifying is GREAT!
- Anika
Thanks Pea, that's Kodak BW400CN film, Olympus OM-1 SLR and Zuiko 50mm/1.8 lens. Old school. A lot of photos turned out blurry due to my craptastic focusing skills, but enough turned out ok. Always love it when low light comes through clear without a flash.

Doh! I finally figured out how to see the rest of the pictures! Adrian, they're really great!

@Anika, I keep staring at that 3rd photo too, for the same reason! Also, I love the photo of you swimming!
- Russian Space Lizard
Isn't the lighting on that great? It reminds me of those old Vanity Fair photos.
- Anika
You guys are talking about the pool photo, right? I only took 4 photos at the pool, by the way, there is another good one but the last one is in blurrovision. Personally, I like the 4th one because it's almost a miracle. It was low-light, no tripod, no flash, and 10 people standing around in animated conversation came out clear.
- Adrian
Yeah, the 3rd photo. The lighting is really good.

cool shots Adrian!

Dude he's not going to answer, when the market goes down, he posts how it's because no one has faith in obama and when it goes up it's evidence of obama's deceptive tactics. There isn't and won't be any useful conversation.

For those of you under the mistaken impression that vampires are sexy, I have one word for you: NOSFERATU.

- Steven Perez
from IM
And no, vampires are not sexy. Just remember this: you're fantasizing about screwing necrotic flesh.
- Steven Perez
from IM
Ah, but even this silent era vamp had his charms--the girl swoons, etc. Coppola's version owes much to Nosferatu.
- Kathy Fitch
Yeah, like all those plague rats he brought with him. HAWT.
- Steven Perez
from IM
Note that Coppola's version is pretty darned ugly at certain points as well--including when he gets his lover's redemptive kiss at the end. Hotness transcends looks.
- Kathy Fitch
I guess. I could never make that mental leap. Depending on which school of thought you subscribe to, vampire hawtness, in my brain, is predicated on either (a) screwing someone with a horrible disease or (b) screwing a reanimated dead person. Either way, I say ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww.
- Steven Perez
Since we're discussing fictional characters here- Eric from True Blood? Hot vamp. Edward from Twilight? Hot vamp. I'd go for Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt...but..well... so we've got these 'gentleman' vamps who seduce in order to kill. Sure you have your Nosforatu's and your ....oh what hte hell was the one with the chick in the tight suit....

Ah, but the allure of vampires is all about the mental leap--about symbolism, power, glamour, etc. Forbidden love, forbidden exchange of bodily fluids, love that conquers death . . .Well, the whole thing is poetry, really.

yeah. what kathy said!
- Erin @queenofspain
Guess that's why my favorite vampire movie is BLADE. :D
- Steven Perez
from IM
I've always thought he had nice hands.
- Michael McKean
Blade is another that owes something to Nosferatu--German Expressionism all the way. Plus, the epic battles between good and evil--and the difficulty, sometimes, of determining exactly what counts as one or the other--is all part of the great mythology and symbolism of the thing, as well. Sex and violence, life and death are always intertwined in horror.
- Kathy Fitch
Nosferatu still makes me sleep with the lights on.

What this guy did with live organ accompaniment was AMAZING. Much better than whatever music that is on the audio track IMO. He referenced the Poulenc Organ concerto ... a great piece. He tours all the time... Check him out if you like silent films + live music: http://www.cas.sc.edu/film...
