most.boring.movie.evar. Cool lego model, though. Almost as good as this one from this morning's Salt Lake Tribune: http://extras.mnginteract...13_032943_stpatsdrink.pdf(Looks like kind of a sausage fest though.) |

I almost agree. If it wasn't for Eyes Wide Shut it would be #1. Kubrick blows. He appears about five times in my Top Ten *feces* Movies list. I suspect a doppleganger did Full Metal Jacket. |

At least Eyes Wide Shut had copious gratuitous nudity in it. Beats the hell out of watching a guy run on a gigantic hamster wheel for like 10 straight minutes. |

Kubrick blows. He did a couple of "just OK" films, didn't he?   |

I think a few people think this one doesn't suck either.  |

A Clockwork Orange is on that top ten list. Watched it twice to be sure and it blew worse the second time. The Shining rules. Forgot about that one. Have to admit I've never seen Strangelove. Almost... a dozen times maybe but I'm predisposed to think it's gonna suck.  But I respect your right to be wrong.   |

A Clockwork Orange- weird movie based on an even weirder novel. I liked both, but can definitely see how others might not.
The Shining- Used to love this movie. I think I've seen it too many times now. Last time I watched it (last October) I found it sort of boring.
Dr Strangelove- Brilliant Cold War satire. A bit dated but still a good romp.

LMAO. Disturbing Legos
Public Forum Letter
Article Last Updated: 03/17/2008 07:18:42 PM MDT
I am a mother of young boys who love, love, love Legos. When I saw the Lego illustration in the paper, I thought, "How fun. What is this about?" I cannot express my surprise - then concern - then shock - then sickened feeling, as I realized that the cute, innocent Lego people were depicting how to order alcoholic drinks, tip a bartender and do a "pre-group huddle" before entering a bar ("Don't let the crowds stop you - getting a drink on St. Pat's is easy," Tribune, March 14).
As a marketing angle, using Legos is an interesting tool to reach your target audience. Ages 21-35 would identify with Legos and would stop to read the little advice bubbles.
This half-page Lego portrayal of adult behavior is disturbing for parents of children because of underage drinking behaviors.
Children start to make decisions about drinking alcohol and participating in other adult behaviors between 8 and 12 years of age - the exact target age that the Lego company sells products to.
I am throwing out your paper today because of the thoughtlessness and danger The Tribune has placed my children in.
* Silly Git *
Sandy LMAO some more. |
