ST "Why hadn't I seen this movie earlier" Poll -- Kill Bill, A- - znufrii, not dead May 1, 06:20 14
- i thought vol 2 was a good bit better than vol 1, and made vol 1 better retroactively. i hated hated hated, though, (vol 2 spoilers) - prayformojo May 1, 06:35
- It's no Pulp Fiction or Jackie Brown, but it would probably be #3 on his resume for me. A- for me as well. -- nm - Don Homer May 1, 06:30 3
  - Haven't seen Jackie Brown, but in a lot of ways Kill Bill felt like the fulfillment of the promise shown by Pulp Fiction. -- nm - znufrii, not dead May 1, 06:34
  - i put it WAY above Jackie Brown, maybe even above Reservoir Dogs. -- nm - Andie May 1, 06:32 1
    - crazy talk. Jackie Brown is tremendous, one of the most underappreciated films of the 90s. -- nm - Don Homer May 1, 06:33
- I liked Vol 2. Never saw Vol 1. - ty97 May 1, 06:25 4
  - If you consider them separately, I think Vol. 2 is the weaker film, but only from a structural perspective. -- nm - znufrii, not dead May 1, 06:27
  - Vol. 1 is tons of fun, and well worth a try. -- nm - Jelly May 1, 06:26 2
    - Vol 1 is better then 2 i think -- nm - Danedukenuuk May 1, 06:28 1
      - Word. -- nm - Loyola May 1, 06:29
- I love Kill Bill, A -- nm - Loyola May 1, 06:21 3
  - It's a masterwork. I would've preferred seeing it in a single cut rather than in two parts, though. -- nm - znufrii, not dead May 1, 06:22 2
    - Yeah but you would have lost some of the goodness from 1 trying to fit 2 in as well. Masterwork, I agree. -- nm - Loyola May 1, 06:24 1
      - I was rather thinking of a single 4-hour film, you wouldn't want to lose any of it, I just foud the transitional stuff a little clunky -- nm - znufrii, not dead May 1, 06:26
and the first confirmed case og swine flu in copenhagen -- nm - Danedukenuuk May 1, 06:18 4
- something fishy in Denmark. -- nm - loosilu May 1, 06:20 3
  - Is this swine flu I see before me. -- nm - Loyola May 1, 06:20 2
    - Flu B, or not Flu B? -- nm - loosilu May 1, 06:21 1
      - What's done is done. *scene* -- nm - Loyola May 1, 06:23

- "You are so cool, and your wife is hot!" -- nm - Don Homer May 1, 06:28
- also: 1989 ty97 would say "Texas? WTF?!" -- nm - ty97 May 1, 06:28
- "How pathetic." -- nm - kelly May 1, 06:27
- 1989 me would say I look tired. 2009 guy would tell 1989 guy about a certain relationship and how not to react to its ending. -- nm - HdnAgnda May 1, 06:26 1
  - You can hardly see the tattoo anymore. -- nm - nubby May 1, 06:31
- "Awesome. I can't wait!" -- nm - nubby May 1, 06:24
- "So much for 6 years of Catholic elementary school, huh?" -- nm - znufrii, not dead May 1, 06:18

- What?!?!?! You flunked out of school??? nm - Jim May 1, 06:12 5
  - Oh yeah...and my 1989 self would be crushed to see how fat I am now. -- nm - Jim May 1, 06:13 4
    - My 1989 self would be pumped that Poison is touring -- nm - ty97 May 1, 06:13 3
      - Related...my 1989 self would be wondering what the fuck happened to Van Halen. -- nm - Jim May 1, 06:17
      - My 1989 self: "You're a fan of WHO???" -- nm - loosilu May 1, 06:14 1
        
        (although, Zac Hanson was about 3 years old then) -- nm - loosilu May 1, 06:14
- damn he's hot - Danedukenuuk May 1, 06:12
- I was three years old 20 years ago. "Maybe he has a balloon!" -- nm - Jelly May 1, 06:11 1
  - this is funny. -- nm - loosilu May 1, 06:11
- "That's nothing like what I expected: -- nm - ty97 May 1, 06:10
- I think i'd be (a) shocked that i don't have kids and (b) thinking i should have a damn house by now. - Andie May 1, 06:10
- [deleted]
- "not bad!" -- nm - loosilu May 1, 06:10 10
  - ok, to be more specific: I'd be surprised I don't have kids, totally stoked at all the things I've done, and I'd like my hair. -- nm - loosilu May 1, 06:13 9
    - I'd be surprised by the no kids thing too. I was going to be married at 23, have first kid at 24 (in 1999, before you the new century) - ty97 May 1, 06:15 8
      - heck, in 1989, I was still fantasizing about a career in the Army - znufrii, not dead May 1, 06:21 2
        
        wuss. -- nm - loosilu May 1, 06:22 1
        
        bah! - znufrii, not dead May 1, 06:39
      - very very close to my teenage plan - married at 23, first kid by 25. - Andie May 1, 06:17 4
        
        I went to college expecting to get married shortly after graduating. -- nm - Dano May 1, 06:21
        
        I was thinking 30 for the married thing. -- nm - loosilu May 1, 06:19
        
        To be honest, I'm so glad I'm not married at 23. - Jelly May 1, 06:19 1
        
        would have been disastrous for me. -- nm - loosilu May 1, 06:20
Okay. So I have an appointment at 3:00. I hope you're all happy. -- nm - Dano May 1, 06:01 8
- Have you made any oinking nosies? -- nm - ty97 May 1, 06:04

- Doesn't look like the same woman. - Will Hunting May 1, 06:19 4
  - Michelle's had ... work done. -- nm - loosilu May 1, 06:31 2
    - Even still. You see a picture of a 50 year old vs a 30 year old, even without work done, there's some similarities shown - Will Hunting May 1, 06:37
    - seriously. significant work done. -- nm - Don Homer May 1, 06:36
  - [deleted]
- That's what I thought. -- nm - nubby May 1, 06:05
- Top Gun was probably over 20 years ago, right? -- nm - Andie May 1, 06:03 4
  - Let's not forget Witness as well. (a far better movie than Top Gun) -- nm - Don Homer May 1, 06:27
  - 23, yup. -- nm - Inigo May 1, 06:08 2

    - i'm at home today so i'll post the result the moment it happens -- nm - zork May 1, 05:45 3

        we watched yesterday to see the litte one minute blurb with dave and martin. waiting for that to come on was horrible. -- nm - Andie May 1, 05:52
So this year's LDOC concert at Duke was Ben Folds, Gym Class Heroes, and Girl Talk. That's one of the big things I miss about not being there anymore. - nubby May 1, 05:13 1

For Zork: Jane Goldman's Twitter -- (link) - LMS May 1, 05:07 2
- heh. although i've never had anything to do with twitter before -- nm - zork May 1, 05:41 1
  - I'm not a member but I occassionally check out Wittertainment, Stephen Fry, Peter Serafinowicz (Pete from SOTD) and now Michael Sheen. -- nm - LMS May 1, 05:48

- Write a screenplay where a mixup puts Larty the Cable Guy on the Supreme Court. -- nm - Dano May 1, 01:39 5
  - ooh, he could have a supersmart twin brother who is the lawyer that gets appointed to the seat - pigby May 1, 01:55 4
    - That's gonna make it tough to have Larry act smart in those limited moments of plotting. -- nm - Will Hunting May 1, 03:26 3
      - Not that it guarantees anything but isn't he actually private school educated? -- nm - Dano May 1, 04:22 2
        
        Beats me. I listen to his ignorant spouting and tune him out. - Will Hunting May 1, 04:30 1
        
        Then you should hand him an Oscar because the entire persona is made up. -- nm - Dano May 1, 06:00
