Rita's XIV: The Last DJ

[Pól Rua]

I still stand by Tom Hanks pre-drama Hanks at least.

I will defend the artistic integrity of 'Bachelor Party' to my dying day.

[Gene M.]

I will defend the artistic integrity of 'Bachelor Party' to my dying day.
"Gentlemen, start your boners."

[Pól Rua]

Which reminds me of a fun game we used to play, best actor with the worst career of movies. My favorite one still is Gabriel Byrne.

Ooh, nice call.
Ben Kingsley's gotta be getting up there.
I think this may get to be a Film/TV Board thread if it isn't already.

[Pól Rua]

"Gentlemen, start your boners."

"Did someone order an asshole from room service?"

Matthew Modine is a great actor.

His roles are questionable, however.

[Pól Rua]

His last big role was in the Pink Panther remake.

Besides that, his last real significant role was five years ago, with Life as a House.

-Brian

Why does Kevin Kline keep doing dramatic roles? WHY?!
Why won't he be funny anymore?

Best Pirate King ever.

[Pól Rua]

Easy.

Gandhi ---> Ben Kingsley ----> Bloodrayne.

He was in 'A Sound of Thunder', too.
Gah!

[Pól Rua]

Byrne has gotta have more than 2 good ones, but right now I am only thinking Usual Suspects and Miller's Crossing.

He was also great in Trigger Happy/Mad Dog Time.

http://www.focusmag.gr/id/files/5296/w_Stoned%20Cat.jpgI was house-sitting for friends of mine once, and they had a cat who looked a lot like that one. She used to sit on my lap while I was toking up, and she loved it when I blew the smoke in her face.

Anyhow, this one particular time she got so baked she fell off my lap.

Fat Free Ranch baby.

Blech. Like many fat-free things, it has that metallic aftertaste.

[K'Nort]

He wrote Four Weddings and a Funeral, Notting Hill, Bridget Jones' Diary and Love Actually.

Now, if you really like Hugh Grant in films other than that, then I cannot help you. :)

Lair of the White Worm, maybe?

[K'Nort]

Michael Caine has done a LOT of crap.

Although I do think Jeremy Irons wins.

Kevin Kline is doing lots of Broadway these days. Not to mention probably just laying back appreciating being married to Phoebe Cates. Would that get old?

Michael Caine has done a LOT of crap.

He's said time and again that sometimes he just takes work to make more money:

I've not seen JAWS 4, I've heard it's terrible. What I have seen, and I can assure you is not terrible, is the house it paid for.

I love Steve! Reservoir Dogs is one of my all-time favorite movies - it was the first thing I saw him in. Then I saw Fargo! awesome

Ooo...that looks cool. Do you think they'll be handing out lots of free books?

[Brian Cronin]

It starts Friday?

Hmmm...Saturday is Rocketship, but I could go Friday. CBRNY!!!

-Brian

[i_mmmchocolate]

Ooo...that looks cool. Do you think they'll be handing out lots of free books?
I didn't even think about that! I'd love some free stuff.

I hope I'll find some comics art stuff.

CBRNY!!!
I work until 6.00pm on Friday!!!

[Brian Cronin]

You could still make the end!

But yeah, that sucks.

Hmmm...BEFORE Rocketship?

Saturday is a tricky day, but I'll make it. It's just that, well, Brooklyn is a trillion miles away!

[Brian Cronin]

Ah well.

You should go Sunday, then!

Maybe other folks are free Sunday!

-Brian

[i_mmmchocolate]

Yep!

It's all good.

[Brian Cronin]

As for me, if others can't make it (and yeah, before Rocketship probably does sound like a bit of a stretch), I guess I can pull solo duty Friday.

The thing looks too cool to miss.

It's the coolest.

Tell us just how cool it is (freebies & stuff) so the rest of us can take advantage on the weekend.

I'd LIKE to go, but I don't think I'll make it.

[i_mmmchocolate]

Yeah, don't forget to report back to us, if you stop by on Friday. To let us know if it's 'yay' or 'nay'.

[Merey]

Might be able to do Sunday, as well. I've declared Friday a stay-at-home night. I need to do my Thanksgiving shopping. I really should have thought the hosting thing through before offering up my apartment for Thanksgiving this year. So much to buy and prepare and so little time.

So they seem to be different species. Is this bestiality? Or does that apply to human-animal only? Because people who can support this or the cat and the dog but are against man-horse relationships I find to be a bit hypocritical.

Gilda Dent makes me bring out a fave:

How about good actors who never get lead roles? Jeffrey DeMunn has never been less than completely convincing in anything I've seen him in, yet he never gets anything but bit parts. He plays lawyers a lot.

Charles Grodin. Although he does occasionally get the lead, he's not usually very good there. He's great as a secondary character, though. Some people are better at being the second banana. Usually looks like a more fun part, anyway. Leads usually end up being boring clichés too often.

[tricksterpup]

Not if you want ones that actually fit.

[Paradox]

Ray_Rivard needs to know the reason:

Yup. Precipitous drop.

Although, Gene Hackman is literally all over the map, quality-wise.

From The Conversation ---> The French Connection --> Uncommon Valor --> Hoosiers --> Bat*21 --> Loose Cannons --> Unforgiven --> Antz --> Enemy of the State --> The Replacements --> The Royal Tenenbaums --> Welcome to Mooseport

That's like a freaking sine curve from the best to the worst and up and down again. I think he must pick scripts out of a hat.

Hackman's pretty open (and unrepentant) about being a complete whore as an actor. He likes to work A LOT and he likes money. His attitude is pretty much "Bite me", but with a smile. :)

[Royal]

Stop hitting yourself.

I didn't Hit myself. It just happened.

[Paradox]

jessecuster2 mentions a baddy:

Ahh much like William Hurt then, Lost In Space ?!?!?!??! Come on !

William Hurt only works if the role calls for someone clueless and monotone. He doesn't have a whole lot of range. That was just awful casting.

[Jeff Brady]

http://static.flickr.com/35/95108641_7a672fed4e.jpg

That's a-nice!

[howyadoin]

Holy shit, did Dox really put in an appearance at Rita's?





Hide the good silverware!

[Pól Rua]

William Hurt only works if the role calls for someone clueless and monotone. He doesn't have a whole lot of range. That was just awful casting.

Though I thought he was fantastic in Dark City.
The scene where says, "Why don't people ever listen to me?" He delivered that line with such a sense of exhaustion and despair.
He may be a clueless monotone, but he's a great clueless monotone.

Peter Weller's also got a kickarse monotone. The scene in Naked Lunch where the cockroach asks him to rub some powder onto its sphinctre and he shrugs and says, "Sure, why not?"
He gave it a sense of 'Why the fuck not? I'm in a police station and a talking bug wants me to shove drugs up its ass... what the hell?'

[howyadoin]

http://static.flickr.com/35/95108641_7a672fed4e.jpgThat reminds me. I'm all out of honeydew melons.

[Paradox]

howyadoin is aghast:

Holy shit, did Dox really put in an appearance at Rita's?

I pop in now and again. Mostly when I'm bored and I've already explored all the Comm. threads. Got a lot of time on my hands. Damn computer here at work got a virus, and I had to do one of those reinstalls, but then I had to download all the CoH stuff and this connection does that s l o w l y. 2.2 gigs shouldn't take me five solid eight hour runs at it. :mad: But it does, so while I'm locked out of Paragon City, you get the pleasure/curse of my company. Should be done finally in a few hours, though, then I'll probably disappear again. :)

Hide the good silverware!

What silverware? And pay no attention to the jingling in this big bag. I...needed a lot of change. For laundry. Yeah, that's the ticket!

[howyadoin]

Pól Rua gets it:

The scene where says, "Why don't people ever listen to me?" He delivered that line with such a sense of exhaustion and despair.
He may be a clueless monotone, but he's a great clueless monotone.

Yes, what he does, he does well. Excellent example. I also thought he pulled off his role in "The Accidental Tourist" well. But then, stuff like "Altered States" and "Body Heat" he's hit and miss. I just don't buy his "I'm very excited" work. And then there's stuff like "Broadcast News", but I can't fault him for movies that really have no redeeming values at all.

Peter Weller's also got a kickarse monotone. The scene in Naked Lunch where the cockroach asks him to rub some powder onto its sphinctre and he shrugs and says, "Sure, why not?" He gave it a sense of 'Why the fuck not? I'm in a police station and a talking bug wants me to shove drugs up its ass... what the hell?'

Heh, yeah, he's pretty much Robocop without the electronic filter. But, hey, when it works, it works.

howyadoin goes too far:

My solid gold bong better not be in there.

Please. I do hold SOME things sacred. ;)

Now you can tear a building down
But you can't erase a memory
These houses may look all run down
But they have a value you can't see...
This is my neighborhood
This is where I come from
I call this place my home
You call this place a slum
You wanna run all the people out
This what you're all about
Treat poor people just like trash
Turn around and make big cash

Now you can tear a building down
But you can't erase a memory
These houses may look all run down
But they have a value you can't see

Last month there was a fire
I saw seven children die
You sent flowers to their family
But your sympathy's a lie
Cause every building that you burn
Is more blood money that you earn
We are forced to relocate
From the pain that you create

Now you can tear a building down
But you can't erase a memory
These houses may look all run down
But they have a value you can't see

We lived here for so many years
Now this house is full of fear
For a profit you will take control
Where will all the older people go?
There used to be when kids could play
Without the scourge of drug's decay
Now our kids are living dead
They crack and blow their lives away

Now you can tear a building down
But you can't erase a memory
These houses may look all run down
But they have a value you can't see

You've got to fight
You've got a right
To fight for your neighborhood!

Back on Free Comic Book Day, I picked up a copy of the Amelia Rules! FCBD book. The site owner finally put up my review last night. Review Link (http://www.gatewaycomicsetc.com/reviews/review_detail.asp?myID=19)

[DocAbsurd]

I am so not looking forward to today.

I start my second job right after my first one.

How's this for ironic:

Normally Waldenbooks has calendar kiosks in 2 spots in the mall. Last year I worked both and I was supposed to run them both this season. However, with the prospect of Barnes&Noble opening up next spring, the mall gave B&N first crack at selling calendars. Subsequently, we don't have the kiosks, I'm not running the kiosks, and our hours are woefully short.

So I had to find something else to pad my hours.

I applied and was hired at the very kiosks that stopped me from working at our own kiosks.

What's really sad is that I'll be making more an hour starting than what I'm currently earning at Waldenbooks. And just as sad is the fact that this job is temporary. But I figure I should be able to squirrel away a few bucks while getting caught up on the bills so that I might have enuff to fall back on between the time our store closes and the new B&N opens. And it'll only be a few months after that when we move.

Still, working 6 days a week is gonna kill me . . .




Doc 'Burning at Both Ends' Absurd

[jessecuster3]

Good Morning all. I have 2 Interviews today ! :)



I dont feel the suns comin out today
Its staying in, its gonna find another way.
As I sit here in this misery, I dont
Think Ill ever see the sun from here.
And oh as I fade away,
Theyll all look at me and say, and theyll say,
Hey look at him! Ill never live that way.
But thats okay
Theyre just afraid to change.
When you feel your life aint worth living
Youve got to stand up and
Take a look around you then a look way up to the sky.
And when your deepest thoughts are broken,
Keep on dreaming boy, cause when you stop dreamin its time to die.
And as we all play parts of tomorrow,
Some ways will work and other ways well play.
But I know we all cant stay here forever,
So I want to write my words on the face of today.
And then theyll paint it
And oh as I fade away,
Theyll all look at me and theyll say,
Hey look at him and where he is these days.
When life is hard, you have to change.

There's a reason this is a community, we don't have to "squeal" because something pisses us off, we can just confront the person and hope they appreciate our point of view. It seems the logical and rational among us can handle this stuff and trolls got all hot and bothered, which would you rather be ?

You rebel, you.

Ten, this is how the community board works: you get to knock religion and the religious; conservatives get to knock liberals, and vice versa; I get to knock philistines and the can't-we-all-just-get-along contingent; and everyone gets to knock me because, well, I deserve it. On its best days, the community board is a place of civil disagreement and fun-poking, and no martyr claims are played.

I'm perfectly calm. And you're overreacting.

I would get sick of putting Jessica in every post too.

I don't.

I've got three pictures a day of her...to post in relevant sections.

I'm guessing Rita's is for esoteric nonsense. Correct?

So I'll post them here.

Whatever you say jessicasimpsonguy

I mean you have her as your Avatar and you have a reference to her in your signature. I wasn't overreacting I was making a point and I know at least 2 other posters agreed with me.

[Chris Nowlin]

If you were here yesterday, I didn't post anything to do with Jessica Simpson.


But it's still your avatar! And your signature! And... damn you! Why can't you just be into guys like all good-hearted folk!

EDIT: Damn, in the time it took me to post this, Jesse said the same thing about the avatar and signature but meant it seriously... oops.

Hey, whats goin awn folks?

I was fuckin around on MySpace and saw Blonds crazy halloween picture and I realized I hadn't stopped by CBR in just about an eternity or two.

So, how is everyone?

Hope you're all beautiful & bohemian.

Peace yo,

P.S. - How is it that I only have 167 posts? Do really old posts get deleted? I'm not really too bothered by the fact, but I thought I had a lot more posts than that before I stopped being really frequent here. Like...millions.

How's the library business today ma'am ?

Thank you.

Getting ready for the onslaught of selection librarians tomorrow; once a year all the selectors go to each Branch to weed and re-assign items, hence I'm making the place look presentable. I just finished cleaning the fish tank.

I'm also putting together the next order of graphic novels for the System. All the Fables TPBs, Blacksad in both Spanish and English versions, "American Born Chinese", and whatever else catches my eye during the rest of the week.

Each time Rita's reaches 5000 posts the thread is closed and a new one is opened. Saves the system from slowing down and crashing. And old threads are being purged periodically.

Ah, I seeeee.

Makes sense, most of my posts were in Ritas, I guess those hunnred un sixy whatever where the non-Rita posts.

Many of the old-timers are sadly missed, although Smoogis & Cosmic are posting with greater regularity, others are in lurk mode. Howyadoin, Pol, and others tend to congregate in the evening time.

Just came back from my first job interview of the day.
I got an email from this company yesterday, they had seen my resume and wanted to talk to me, yet did not post a job description. I looked into the company from his email address and they looked like a competitor of ours so the business was about the same. I show up and sit down with the President and the Director of Business Development. They begin by asking me about my current company and how they are bankrupt. The word has spread and everyone in the industry seems to know about it now. Then we talked about what I do here and what a typical day is. Finally, they explain that they just went through a hiring binge and and all of their openings are filled, but they saw my resume and qualifications and wanted to talk to me. So, now that they have seen I can fill in a lot of their gaps, they said "we have to discuss if we can find a way to get you in here" Even though there are no openings ! What the hell ?!?!?

I just recently purchased a nice suede overcoat from Overstock.com. It sold for 190 bucks at a local Macy's store, but I bought it for 39.99 plus 2.95 shipping. I wear an odd size and that's the only size Overstock had it available in...but still...what a savings!

That was a great breakdown of John (and Tom) and their cult status, because honestly, how many people read those books?

After The Spectre, most people know John from his definitive run on Suicide Squad, but not a whole lot of people dug Firestorm.

Oh, I am either really pissed, or this is the greatest story ever.

The Golden Gate Bridge....is trying to get corporate sponsership and naming rights.
This could be just the suckiest thing ever.....especially if some generic computer company buys it...like Cisco, Sun, or HP.

But imagine if you will. Your a tourist in the Bay Area. You want to see the sights. You turn to the wife, the family dog, and the kids and say....


"Hey guys, who wants to see the Golden Gate Bridge Sponsered by Vagisil?"

"I do, I do. Man Old Vagi is the greatest bridge ever."

"What's your favourite colour, baby?"Living Colour!

No...that's just her nose. She's always had a big, misshapen honker. I, personally have a thing for that sort of thing, but a classic beauty she's not.I kinda like a strong nose myself. One of the many beautiful things about Middle Eastern women.

Then again, I like big ears on a chick, too.

Ashlee on the other hand is homlier than a mules butt.

I'd say the nose job and the blonde hair were a big improvement.

And her body is pretty spectacular, if you like slim women with big tits.

I remember when Candlestick became 3-Com, and the Monster. It was clear that a change was occurring and we were entering a new age of advertizing. The bridge would take it one step too far. Cuz if a corporation can claim that, they can claim anything.

Pepsi presents the Statue of Liberty.

The Grand Microsoft Canyon.

The future will be decided by how that pans out.

Harrison Ford is the man.

Though I'd love to pop over to a parallel earth and see how well Tom Selleck (Spielberg's first choice) would have done in the role.

[Jack Zodiac]

Harrison Ford looks pretty fuckin' fine all the time! :mad:

Well, over her on the other coast, we've been seeing similar movements with the Smithsonian.

The Star Wars/Twentieth Century Fox/Star Trek presentations work all right at the Air & Space Museum.

Having Orkin, the exterminating company, sponsor the insect zoo at the Natural History Museum?

"Hi kids, we've indiscriminately and for significant profit killed millions upon millions of the relatives of the bugs you're about to meet. Enjoy!"

Interesting synergy.

Awesome. Orkin and Bugs is cool.

Now imagine if Trojan gets to sponser The Washington Monument. That is like Peanut Butter and Jelly coming togther.

Hah hah! I used a smiley!

Aw, yeah, now smack me and call me scum! I love it!

[howyadoin]

Aw, yeah, now smack me and call me scum!Just like Mom used to?

Mom used to spank me and call me a bastard, but I barely know Lena, so I'm starting out slow. ;)

I have no idea what that means, but Huzzah!

The mother surrendering the baby for adoption has to be dna matched to the baby by a US gov. approved facility to prove that she is actually the child's mother and not a smuggler or baby broker.

Any other time of year and it would mean we were about a month away, but Christmas and New Years delay things by a week to two weeks, so we'll probably have her here in January.

Yeah, I hate holiday shipping delays. Make sure they don't try to fuck you on the extra freight time.

I think they're related to things Tharg the Mighty is always bitching about.

Thrillsuckers?
Most unzarjaz.

Hmmm, maybe I should have mentioned something about fatherhood in that thread title.....

My threads sometimes die quick deaths.
