Mean Girls is fine, it's legitimately funny. I on the other hand have an unhealthy obsession with Bring it On, which even Jesus couldn't justify liking.

Kazakhstan is full of shit. The great thing about the borat segment is that it's EXACTLY like the cheap immigrant shows. I'm russian, I see this type of shit on russian tv all the time.

As far as the shit he says it's not that far off either, in accent or content

No prob, I've been checking your threads for a while so I figured it's time to contribute a bit. The cover art is budget ass, but the whole No Shame line is worth looking out for. There's a couple good exploitation lines running now, picking up slack since Blue underground slowed down: No Shame (mos...

And thanks for Mondo Macabro heads up. I'll buy that too. You know, one of my great tragedies was finding and buying their book years ago (back when that's all there was, just a book) and then losing it somewhere along the way... So many great movies in that book. Which is why I'm glad that they're...

Here's a few that are easy to find, before I go meet my man for perishable combustibles. These are some of his collabs with Sonny Chiba, who was his main actor to use along with Bunta Sagawa. I'm gonna comment on them a bit tomorrow if nobody beats me to it. http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B0001XA...

I have this. Fukusaku is one of the most consistent directors ever to me, I own a ton of his shit (including this one) and every single one is above average at least. If you like Sympathy for the Underdog and Yakuza papers check out his other Yakuza movies with Bunta Sagawa (sp?). He did a lot of ot...

I can see now why he was so good in the role - it's probably real easy to act like your picture is in the Dictionary under 'badass' when you're coming home to that every night.

Banliue 13 - Almost as good as I expected. The parkour stunts are nuts, there is just not enough of them, not enough fights in this movie in general, which is what holds it back. Entertaining though, and definitely a step in the progressive and bad-ass direction compared to the other parkour movies ...

Bump, this show is the shit.

However, Pullo and Varinas popping up in all the super-convinient to the plot places is getting a little old.

Also the intro with Roman graph all over and the 3d medusa head is on point.

The higher you are, the funnier this movie is. Sober, not so much.
