Yes yes we know, you told us already.


P.S-Only David will care and perhaps a couple of other hipsters on here. :P
Sorry if I was carrying on but I thought the good people of Morwell would like it too. :roll: :P

Now the word hipster has become a favourite of yours. Very 1960's of you.

Freddy vs Jason.

I really like this one, my only dislike for it is the fact they replaced Kane Hodder as Jason Vorhees in this movie. They wanted Jason to be more sympathetic. He's been in the role for the majority of them, and believe he should have still been in it.

Still it's a good movie.

Count me in the great unwashed, unsophisticated peasants as well.

Brilliant film, that one. The original version of The Ecstasy of Gold in the soundtrack is almost as good as Metallica's.

Ninotchka & others are also mainstream not "art-house".

Getting back to The G, The B & The U - quite a violent film - but I like my westerns - spaghetti or not.

That Eli Wallach can play the bad Mexican dude really well.

RIP, Eli. A brilliant character actor. Anyone else remember him as "special guest villain" Mr Freeze in the 1960s TV version of Batman?

Suffering for your art:(From Wiki)

"During the filming of The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, Wallach nearly died three times. Once, he accidentally drank a bottle of acid which was placed next to his pop bottle; another time was in a scene where he was about to be hanged, someone fired a pistol which caused the horse underneath him to bolt and run a mile with his hands still tied behind his back; in a different scene with him lying on a railroad track, he was close to being decapitated by steps jutting out from the train"

I don't recall him from the TV series of Batman though.
