India Backs Burmese Gas Over Burmese Democracy…

Taking a lesson from the Chinese playbook, India’s screwing over democratic activists in Burma–at a time when they need it the most and are actually gathering momentum. The irony here is that kowtowing to the generals has proven ineffective in……

“Unbreakable is different. That is a one-on-one instance. I am referring to action movies where you have a gang of bad guys.”

What was that Steven Seagal film where he took on Jamaican gangsters? “Marked for Death”? The IMDB bio for Seagal starts off with “Steven Seagal is … striking and somewhat boyishly handsome looking”, which is very wrong.

I don’t know if Tobey McQuire will work at Rick Hunter…

Wow. This has the potential to be even more ridiculous than the Rambo spoof that Weird Al did in UHF.

So of course I’ll be seeing this with a few friends….

World B. Free on September 11, 2007 at 2:00 PM

YESSS!! From the first gory bit, Weird Al’s hilarious parody–and the Hot Shots Part Deux spoof–came to mind (complete with videogame bodycounts on the screen in the latter movie). LOLOL!

I think he was making a “garden weasel.”

What the hell is he making at the beginning there?

It’s a shoehorn because his boots are too tight.

jihadwatcher,

That is a hard litmus test to pass. We would have to dig into the 60′s cult films for that.

Texyank,

How many 60, 50, 40, or 30 yr olds can keep up with
Sly

I think his secret is to slaughter, mame, and kill smarter not harder. The yong’ns will just run around and shoot as much and as many as you can. Sly is now all about the quality kill. LOL!

Much gore and violence. I feel exhausted from all the killing and will have to watch it again tomorrow.

jihadwatcher,

In Team America, wasn’t that a movie mocking American patriotism?

In general it wasn't. It pretty much made of of extremism on all sides but was mostly toward the Hollywood Left. Here's an interview with Matt and Trey talking about that.

Sorry, but the greatest movie trailer of all time was for The 300. Period.

Exit question one: What the hell is he making at the beginning there?

I think he’s beating a plowshare back into a sword.

And the first Rambo movie did have a plot.

Christoph on September 11, 2007 at 2:29 PM

It also had a book that it was based on.

We can also ad True Lies to the list of brown ememies.

This is true, but that movie took a lot of heat for that. It has never been done again.

In Team America, wasn’t that a movie mocking American patriotism?

In Demolition man, were all the bad guys black, and all the good guys white? That is the litmus test.

Unbreakable is different. That is a one-on-one instance. I am referring to action movies where you have a gang of bad guys.

How many 60, 50, 40, or 30 yr olds can keep up with
Sly . . .? He’s still a draw. Good Luck Sylvester.
