I need to vent!

Crash and Burn had some redeeming qualities to it though.

Such as ...?

Well I just watched it again....

...and damn I don't remember it being that bad. Maybe because last time I watched it I was also playing video games and paid the littlest attention possible. There is one-story arch though that I was proud of though, but it is a major spoiler for those who have not seen it...

I'm glad that Prime Directives addressed the strained relationship between Alex Murphy and James/Jimmy Murphy, how both of them finally forgave each other by the end of the series. When the original trilogies of movies ended I wondered whatever happened to Jimmy as he would have to grow up believing his father was dead but really he had become a shining knight in armour of Detroit. I found it interesting to wonder what a son would have to go through if he thought his father had abandoned him through death (even if it was unintentional) but really his father was a hero; a hero though that had to purposely deny remembering his family to prevent hurting them because he had become a machine. Though the acting was bad between the two characters in the series, I'm just happy that this concept was finally addressed to.

HAHAHAHAHA that song is terrible!

You know what's even worse? I have never seen the music video and I don't know what the singer looks like and I thought - 'I reckon the music video is going to have some blonde Caucasian woman with curly hair and bad makeup like the equally-as-annoying Cascada singing in some contemporary set with many dancers groping her body "sensually".'

And what was in the music video?
Exactly everything I had predicted LOL.

It's not that I hate these singers with passion and think that whatever I listen to is 1,000,000x better, it's that these singers and their songs are played AGAIN and AGAIN which bugs the hell out of me, sure you could tell me to just change the station and turn off the radio but I have to encounter these songs whenever I listen to Hamish and Andy on the radio while driving home!

I didn't mind California Girls when it first came out, but now everytime I hear it I GO BESERK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL

Bloody Oath!

Evil Dead - Nuff Said.

I would like to add Pitch Black to that list

the original Clerks was made on a small budget... it's a freakin' awesome movie!

and Clerks II as well... "There is only one Trilogy, the Star Wars Trilogy; there is only one 'return' and its Return of the Jedi." heh.

and... Mallrats, Chasing Amy...

My simple yet unproven theory (well I don't know if it's been proven or not, just haven't bothered to done the research)

In these economic times, it's a dog eat dog world out there. People (especially execs/some owners/bosses) in an attempt to ensure their financial wellbeing are willing to raise the prices for everything so that they can make that extra dollar and don't have to share it with their coworkers (thus why salary rates don't increase). I had a discussion with my friend purely on a theorical scale and we noticed that in these times the rich are getting richer (CEOs and such) while the managers on the lower end of the corporations are getting paid the same rate/less. That's why in today's media the positions of being a CEO or some high-end executive are so glamorised because they're the type of jobs that can get you big $$$ which to most people = success.

and people in high executive positions need to spend less - company car, expenses paid travelling, able to claim meals, entertainment expense, corporate rates for hotels, etc... and if they negative gear their properties, the get the difference back in tax (which lowers their taxable income, thereby making them possibly pay less tax!).

I 100% agree with everything you've said here dude as I love all these movies!
Some may consider this to be blasphemic, but I've not yet seen Malrats, Chasing Amy or Clerks, I have seen Dogma, Jay and Silent Bob: "The Sign, On The Back Of The Car, Said Critters Of Hollywood, You Dumb F@#!" and Clerks II: "She's Kinky Kelly and I'm the Sexy Stud!".

Clerks II was just legendary.
