« on: September 05, 2003, 04:30:47 PM »
OK, thanks for stoping by.....

My girlfriend has been bothering me and saying that we havent been doing enough stuff together the last couple of weeks, and with a baby comming we should get some time in before it comes.....

I see her point so i have something romantic planned for tomorrow..

First ill buy some beer, then ill order a pizza...

Now comes the tricky part:

As i have ppv on my settopbox at home i have planned that we shal see a movie, but i dont know wich one to choose of these 2 cheap once:

The Mothman or Signs....

Any thoughts?

you trying to get her to deliver early or something ? :)

She shouldn't drink beer - little red wine is ok though.
Pizza... well, it's up to her.

Scary movie... heheehe watch her go into labor from sheer terror :D

Why don't you take her to a nice restaurant ? Just try not to get into a fight :D

Oh, about the movie choice. Rent something else on dvd. Neither one of those movies are chick-flicks. If you are going to have a romantic evening you dont finish it off with a horror movie.

Get Sleepless in Seattle or something.

Call one of her friends, tell her to stop and pick out a movie and get some ice cream.  Then you take the beer and the Horror flick and go to your Buds house.

I didn't really like signs too much,  here's why.  

ATTENTION***SPOILERS***ATTENTION***SPOILERS***ATTENTION***
******IF YOU HAVE NOT SEEN THE MOVIE AND ARE GOING TO, DO NOT READ THE FOLLOWING*********

The aliens travel god only knows how far to conquer a planet that is 75% made up of something (water)  that will kill them, and they don't even pack their  galoshes or raincoats.

when they do get here, their main battle plan is to run naked on peoples roofs and making crop circles.

and when they do finally attack, do they use (dr. evil voice and parantese hands)
"LASERS?"
no, they use a poison gas, maximum effective range....3 feet

and the sence of urgency of the people in the house at the end.   (aliens dancing naked on roof,  attack is eminent)  
"well, i guess we better mosey to the basement now" with all the speed urgency of a union worker


I know the movie was about faith, but it just didn't work for me.

You try break down a door if you are naked and without any tools whatsoever.

ROFLMAO tap.  That review was perfect.

I too found it incredibly dumb that the super smart aliens would go to a planet made up of 75% water to mess with species composed of 80% water.  What in the heck were they going to do when it rained? Or how about when the relative humidity reached above.. oh say.... 0%?

And if you can jump on top of a building with no effort whatsoever, you can sure as heck boot down a rotted out old wooden door.

Oh yeah, and at the start of the movie when the dog freaks out. I didnt understand why this happened.  It was never obvious why and it sure as heck wasnt explained. Good thing a small child was able to dispatch it with a table fork.  :rolleyes:

Signs was one of the crappiest movies I have ever seen. I didnt include a disclaimer like tapakeg did because I wouldnt want anyone to actually be blind to the fact that this movie sucks.

I also wouldnt want to be responsible for someone wasting 5 bucks or even 2 hours of their life after picking the cassette or DVD off the street after someone lobbed it out of their window in disgust.
