Oops, sorry I forgot to cite it. It was in Movies in Pre-Production, as we were discussing whether or not a movie based on a Thomas Kinkade paintiing is a sign of the apocalypse.

jolie laide, pondering Chris Daughtry in the Unpopular Music Opinions thread:

QUOTE
I get SO MAD whenever I hear his "Wanted Dead or Alive" cover. The first few seconds tricks me into thinking I'm about to hear Bon Jovi and then when I figure it out, I get all "Oh, you have not rocked a million faces! A lot of those were the same people voting multiple times! This is bullshit, where's Tico Torres?"



Made me laugh til I cried. Awesome. There can be no rocking of faces without Tico!!

I had to go all the way back to mid-February for this one. I was driving home from work today, and "Wanted: Dead or Alive" (the real one, not the poser cover) came on the radio. So there I was, wailing along with Jon, getting my Young Guns on, when I thought: "Where's Tico Torres?"

And then I couldn't sing any more, because I was laughing too hard.

Snarkfest, the gift that keeps on giving.

Trufax: Emilio Estevez wanted Wanted: Dead Or Alive for the Young Guns II soundtrack, but Bon Jovi felt it was wrong for the film, especially because of the "on a steel horse I ride" line, so he wrote Blaze of Glory instead, and then made a whole album for Young Guns II, which was his first solo project.

I am queen of Young Guns trivia.

Cheetara discusses the state of James Cameron's post-Titanic career in Kate Winslet's thread:

QUOTE
Making documentaries for the Discovery Channel isn't exactly like getting kicked in the 'nads, which is what he should be doing for a living.

epudom offers the finest description regarding George Clooney's alleged personal life in Guess Who, Don' Sue: Blind items
QUOTE
George is like a real life Captain Jack Harkness; totally charming, omnisexual and will try his luck whenever he can.

How I love him.


Seriously, I like to think of George as very very friendly.

PrincessCleo has some issues with Elizabeth's, er, partners in that PotC porn comic that has been illegally floating about:
QUOTE
Does this include Bootstrap Bill? Because a little part of me is dying, if so. Tentacles? Hey, why not? Fathers-in-law? EW NO.


Skyblade, however, see the benefits of the comic:
QUOTE
And now I'm thinking Disney should just let this comic slide, because now I've actually had to learn the names of the Flying Dutchman's crew in order to distinguish which one is banging an illustration of Keira Knightly.

I just read this quote by Skyblade in the Star Wars Saga Movie section, and I just about died.

QUOTE
See, they should have just had everyone talk with a Golden Age city dialect then.

"See, I got the power of the dark side, see. Why doncha join me, Amidala? You're a swell tomato, and I think you're the mos-*test*-('")."

"To pits with that you half-toaster galoot."

Yay for Intern George getting me my first metaquote on the new board!

Thanks Genevieve!

This. Had me crying with laughter.

Skybalde and tothemax on the film that launched 300 manties: 300:

QUOTE
Skyblade:

I wonder if that was on purpse, and Zach Synder wanted to show us how spoiled and insecure Xerxes was by commanding forced perspectives to make him look taller. (Hey, they had grenades in the movie too. Why not?) 
 
tothemax

Forgive me, but I'm not about to give this movie points for subtlety

PrincessCleo- 03-19-2007
Hee, thanks, Gwynevere.

oxymoron- 03-20-2007
In the Spelling and Grammar thread, vidor, while giving examples of the correct usage of "800 lb gorilla" speaks the truth.

QUOTE
"Anne Rice is the 800 lb. gorilla of crappy vampire novels."

Unlucky Bear on 300:
QUOTE (Unlucky Bear @ March 20, 2007 11:44 pm)
It wasn't until after [spoiler] that I realized I had no idea what was going to happen. Would Jesus fly in and save the day? Would Frodo be able to carry the ring to Mount Doom?

psammead on meeting up with Snarryfan in London and pretty much sums up what SF is all about:

QUOTE
Well, a select group of me and Snarryfan met at 6 and stayed chatting and consuming alcohol until we were thrown out at 11.30. Topics covered included the unreliabilty of polarbear and Zap, the acting ability of Daniel Radcliffe, the manners of stage door autograph hunters, the history of Snarkfest 101, early nineteenth century American theatre, Uncle Tom's Cabin, the differences between American and British education, the death penalty, famous murderers, Heather Mills vs Yoko, whether theatre groupies are more crazy than internet pseuicides and much more. Y'all should have been there.


I wish I could have been there, it sounds hilarious.

psammead- 03-22-2007
Hee! Thanks. Believe me, it's all true!
