Random Social Chit-Chat v. Illuminati Confirmed

CC, in light of a recent viewing (on saturday), i must admit, it's way too fuckin long for an action flick. 207 minutes is insane, but then again, it was my wife's first viewing and she thought it was nowhere near as long as it actually is.

yeah, mifune's Kikuchiyo ftw!

Oh dear, and we were doing so well :(

Have you seen The Night Of The Living Dead (1990 version)?.

http://imdb.com/title/tt0100258/

Quite a few people get uppity about it because it's a remake, and the original is supposed to be some kind of classic. However, I disagree. In the original movie, the actress who plays Barbara truly irritated me beyond belief. All she did was screech and pass out every time she saw a zombie. I just wanted to give her a good slap and tell her to sort herself out. But in the remake, Barbra starts off much like the Barbara in the original. But gradually her instincts start to take over and she's soon blowing holes through zombies chests with shotguns.

The acting's really high quality for a horror movie too. Both Patricia Tallman and Tony Todd have good chemistry. Plus the special effects/make up was created by Tom Savini (so you know it's good).

The only downside to this movie is that it can be a bit too slow paced in certain places for my liking. But overall, a pretty good film :)
 
^^^yes I've seen both versions of Night of the Living Dead....hehe....but I never finished both. Maybe I will watch them again just for you ;)
 
^Let me guess. Anthony Hopkins plays the same type of character with the same delivery of his lines, as he does in all his other movies. Except obviously under different circumstances.
 
the soup on E! entetainment televesion previously known as "talk soup" is one of my fav shows n' over the years has been consistently hilarious whoever the hosts is. also the various hosts all did a great job hosting "talk soup" from greg kinnear to aisha taylor(my personal fav). and "the soups" joel mchale also.

Savini actually directed that one, which is surprising since he's not really all that talented behind the camera. Luckily he had good people working with him.

I used to be a huge Savini fanboy. The guy did break a lot of new ground in movie effects, but he was pretty much left in the dust by the generation that learned from him. Most of the people that used to work for him are now some of the biggest names in Hollywood effects (i.e. KNB Effects: Greg Nicoterro is the freaking MAN).

Back to the zombie topic - the original Night of the Living Dead IS a great film. Barbera did scream a lot, she was pretty much worthless, but that was a long time before Sigourney Weaver showed the world that women can kick ass.
 
^Nice find CC!

Gone are the days of having to keep hitting the F5 button in between boring online conversations. I'll simply watch episodes of Absolutely Fabulous instead ;)
