A somewhat irregular collection of my thoughts on life, the universe, and everything else. (By which I usually mean movies).

You wanna see a fuckin' movie?!?!
See Punisher: War Zone.
It's not a good movie by any means. It's retarded as hell. But goddamn is it an awesome stupid movie.
The Punisher punches through a dude's face. HIS FACE!!! With his bare hands!!!
So many people get shot in the head, and their heads fucking disappear in an eruption of blood!! There are so many scenes of needless brutality, I feel I can't give any of it away. It will ruin the experience of having your face melted off by the movie's almost Rambo-level approach to amazing on-screen violence.
Dominic West as Jigsaw, the main villain, is perfectly terrible. Armed with a the second-worst Brooklyn accent in the film, he chews the scenery to shreds that resemble his make-up.
The worst accent in the movie belongs to Doug Hutchinson as Looney Bin Jim. His level of awful, in voice and performance, approaches the sublime. There's a scene with mirrors that must be seen to be believed. There's also a scene involving... nevermind. Watch it.
Even the cinematography is dumb. Watch some of the bizarre framing of shots in this movie. Hint, look to the right of the screen. You'll see.
Discover the brilliance of a terrible movie. Watch Punisher: War Zone... It's CRAPTASTIC!!!
I don't even know who this guy is. Because to me, he IS the Punisher.
But he kinda looks like Will Forte a little bit.
(This kind of terrible movie should not be confused with a bad movie. For an example of a bad movie read this clever little synopsis of Quantum of Solace from The Editing Room. But only if you've already seen, or don't care to see the movie, as it has "spoilers". Not great ones, since the movie has no story. But it definitely sums up my feelings about the film.)
