    I didn't know anyone still used Whitworth scales, how very quaint.

    Just to bring us all up to speed...
    A rating scale only works if the limits are agreed upon and widely understood.
    I can say "Denver is fifty miles from Ft. Collins" and you know generally what I mean because we've agreed what a mile represents (i.e., "About 5,200 feet further than I'm willing to walk").
    Most of our hit and run posters much prefer the "10" scale, so Yeahh, your arbitrary and unconventional scale of eight is basically a thinly veiled "Fuck you" to the dimmest of our flock.
    We like to be inclusive here, it's kind of our motto.

    There, glad that's sorted.
    I too saw Aliens and Cowboys" and would give it 2 pints out of an hour.

    I have not seen it, but it appears worthy of 43 minutes out of its 118 minute run time. So. 43/118.

    Imperial, of course.
    Now ask me if it's a standard or Revolutionary hour.

    Furlongs per fortnight?

    Ah, I actually sat down for Source Code and it didn't put me to sleep.

    While I was awake, I was able to appreciate an extremely novel execution of your run-of-the-mill (yet classic) premise of the do-over, hammered intensely and creatively by Duncan Jones, et.al., behind the camera, and Jake Gyllenhall and company in front of it.

    Understated and effective performances by all, with a special nod to Gyllenhall, who manages a good batch of believable scenery-chewing (he's better than Al Pacino on several fronts, but by an order of magnitude on this one), and is excellent all-'round.

    On top of that, it's a high-tech feel-good movie with real heart.

    9/10

    I really liked it, and how can I fail to recommend a movie that kept me awake, after all.

    Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas

    Hm, I liked some parts and I almost fell asleep a few times. I'm not much of a dug user, so maybe that's why I didn't get the whole movie. It's different, though, and that isn't always bad.

    6,5/10
    I'm back. The downside is that I'm also old now.

    Fast Five. Initially, I downloaded this movie hoping to see some under 5 minute gang bang action, but it turns out that it wasn't actually a porn, but uploaded between two porn videos. Oops.

    Anyway, Vin Diesel has come into his own, showing both range and super-star acting ability. Here is a screen depicting his disgust for something that had just happened.



    Does he not look like he is unhappy with the situation? I rest my case. And, there's plenty more where that came from. He also does an exceptional job of showing smugness, but you will have to watch the show yourself since revealing what he is smug about may/may not give away key plot details.

    So good you'll want to pre-order it on Amazon AND pay full ticket price at the theater.

    Normally when I misdownload a movie, I instantly knock it down a couple of points. However, with all of the male bonding in this film, I didn't need that porno after all. 10/10

    Your pic might display Vinny's actressin' range but I gotta tell ya...from here it looks like Diesel just farted and the guy behind him ain't thrilled.

    Another thing that I find slightly offputting (besides the noxious flatulence) about your new man crush (BTW, have you broken this to Sly yet?) is the odd discrepancy with his shaving.
    How do you find time to skin the scalp and completely miss the entire face?

    Seems kinda lazy.
