On a side note…

“All it needs is a needle scratch. I wonder if they fall in love at the end. I WONDER.”

I read Ebert’s review of “Two Week’s Notice.” (I think it was “Two Week’s Notice.”) In it he said, and I’m paraphrasing, ‘In this movie a man and a woman meet, they irritate each other, then then realize they love each other, but there’s an obstacle in their way, they overcome the obstacle and live happily ever after. I didn’t spoil this movie for you, I just spoiled every romantic comedy ever made.”

I admit RomComs are predictable, but I still like them. And I like Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds, so I’ll probably enjoy this movie. It won’t be my proudest moment as a critic, but if I can live with giving The Love Guru a positive review, I’ll survive that.

“I respond to posts that I think worthy of responding to without much regard to who posted them. … If you have a problem with this I suggest you feel free to ignore my posts.”

In other words, your idea of a truce is you doing whatever you want, and I should just stop complaining.

If this site had a kill filter, you would be in mine.

So if you want a truce, just don’t talk to me. Ever.

I respond to posts that I think worthy of responding to without much regard to who posted them. If you have a problem with this, don’t respond to mine.

Meanwhile, unless OW finds some reason to object (it’s his site, he rules), I’ll continue to respond to posts as I wish. If you have a problem with this I suggest you feel free to ignore my posts.

“Truce, now?”

No.

Given your past behavior, I would be foolish to expect you to maintain any truce. Hell, I requested that you never respond to me again, because they typically end in fights. Yet you continued to do so.

You are willing to argue that someone illegally funneling money to Norm Coleman’s wife is unconnected to Norm Coleman’s guilt or innocence, as long as it means you get to argue with me.

So if you want a truce, just don’t talk to me. Ever.

Busch, Bud, and Coors don’t count as “beer”. They’re “slightly alcoholic carb water.”

OK, kidding.

I don’t knee-jerk disagree with everything you say.

Truce, now?

No she’s not.

That’s a lot of dolphins.

Billy Zane’s eyebrows kill every role for me. Him and Peter Gallagher.

As an actor, I like Billy Zane more when he’s playing villians (Titanic, Dead Calm, Posse).

On the one hand, Hilary Duff is sexy. On the other hand, I still remember her as Lizzie McGuire, and feel like a dirty old man when I see her like that. The dirty part I can deal with, it’s the old part that bugs me.

Just to let you know you are not alone. I loved The Phantom. I enjoyed it as an old-fashioned pulp style film, less super than it was hero. Really, the Phantom had the costume, but he is much more firmly in the pulp style than later characters, and I thought the film captured that sense.

Billy Zane was good. Catherine Zeta-Jones is always a goddess. Treat Williams was a treat (bad pun). And Kristy Swanson gave what I think was the only good performance of her career, sorry to say.

Yeah, that sounded good. I was disappointed.
