ickaimpSean was just reading an article on 'Undead Zombie Jesus Day' when I pointed out to him that Jesus is not the original zombie, Lazarus is, and since Jesus brought Lazarus back from the dead, that makes Jesus his Undead Necromancer Master, which means that it's no big surprise that Jesus came back from the dead too.
At which pointed Sean declared Jesus a Litch, and MOrgan informed her son he was not allowed to put the Litch's head on a stick and put it out in the front yard to scare away the Jehovah's Witnesses, no matter how much better of a security system it would be. (because, given half a chance, Sean would have Litch heads on sticks in our front yard as a security system)
And people wonder why I live here. ^___^
Went to see Green Hornet today too. Loved it! *wiggles happily* Only loosely familiar with the old Radio and TV shows, so pretty much went in with a blank slate. The movie is FUN! The characters are quirky and the dialogue is great.
There were a few things that made me go 'hmm' about the movie. Mostly it was little, odd stuff.
Any time a car hit another car.... The non-driving car was empty. Car being towed away, broken-down bus having little orange triangles around...
It sounds stupid, but it's a little detail I enjoyed, because I could sit back and ooooh and ahhhhh over the nice big explosion without worrying about the death count. ^__^Transformers, I'm looking at you.
Although... Front wheel drive? Really? Can just that half of the car go?
A recent article on Cracked.com is Six Deadly Injuries You Think You'd Survive Thanks to Movies. And we've got 5 outta 6 here, the lacking being the missing limb.
The Gas Gun. Okay, in theory, it works. Realistically? Um... Yeah.
Kato's necessary arrangements for while being knocked out? Brilliant!
Honestly, I can't tell if they were trying to head the slash fangirls off at the pass or not.
*motions to Kato, who is lurking behind Reid*
"Who's this?"
Reid: "He's My Man."
"....."
Reid: "You know, my man. My MAN. Not... my man... "
"...."
Reid: "He's... uh... my Executive Assistant."
"Okay."
Female Love Interest: "I'm not kissing you! Maybe the two of you kiss each other, but I'm not!"
Seriously love the fact that Kato is so incredibly kick-ass. He's not just strong in martial arts, he's a frikkin genius.
Reid's not a genius and his ego frequently gets in the way, but at the same time, without him, Kato wouldn't be doing what he does, putting his genius into action, everything would still be theory. Without Kato, Reid couldn't do what he does.
Best line of the entire movie: "You're our Criminal Mastermind! We don't have a CLUE what we're doing!"
All in all, in some ways, an incredibly realistic approach to being a super hero.
In other ways? Complete and utter fantasy. C'mon! Gas in Los Angeles under $3 a gallon?! Seriously?!
