Rush's point was well taken, and missed and/or distorted by the left. End of story.
But even though I agree with him in principle, if it was one of my two daughters he called a slut in a national forum, I'd pop him in the nose. Just sayin.
Very nice tribute. AB left some huge shoes to fill. I just hope that whoever tries to fill them remembers that part of what made him so special was his willingness not just to call bull$---- when it was warranted (and it often was), but also to sit down and have a thoughtful discussion about the issues. He'll be missed.
Oh my God ... RIP, Andrew, and condolences to all who knew and worked with him.
Awesome. I'll be upgrading my DVD set for sure .... "Crystal Skull" will make a lovely coaster.
Way more excited for "Dark Knight Rises," but this does look pretty Marvel-tastic. I have faith in Joss Whedon, but balancing all those characters in a coherent story is going to be a challenge.
LOL. No offense. There were parts of "Superman Returns" I loved -- especially some of the iconic shots of Supes hovering over the earth, and throwbacks to the Richard Donner original (Brando as Jor El) -- but it didn't do much for me as a whole. Much more excited for Zack Snyder's upcoming "Man of Steel."
Thank you, BH for finally acknowledging this great series! Can't wait to pick up the set next week and for the start of the new season. Peter Dinklage is deserving of all the recognition he got for playing Tyrion, and can't wait to see more of him. Plus, there's a a river battle coming that I can't wait to see brought to life.
I hated that Ratner dumped so many new characters into the mix without any real development; that Cyclops -- who was an integral character in the first two -- was abruptly offed without any emotional payoff; that the Sentinals (not that they're even called by name) were wasted with a nonsensical scene at the beginning; and there are too many story threads without any real point to them. Not to mention, the FX were a big downgrade from "X2." I wasn't looking for slavish devotion to the comics, just a worthy followup to what came before. This wasn't it.
But, different strokes for different folks.
Ugh ... this movie sucked. Period. Ben Stiller wore out his welcome years ago, Matthew Broderick just looked old and sad, and Eddie Murphy seemed muzzled in a role that he should have just ran wild with. But then again, you thought Ratner's "X-Men 3" was awesome, so there's obviously some sort of disconnect.
Amen to that ... though now that I think about it, the title "The Walking Dead" would seem to be fitting for the Oscars telecast as well.
When it came decision time, though, watching Shane try to take off Rick's head with a giant wrench was more appealing than another boring, predictable awards show.
