While they may not be the funniest movies ever, just caught two of my all-time favourites: Dirty Rotten Scoundrels (predictable plot, but Michael Caine and Steve Martin are great together) and Clue (hysterical all-star cast).


Nice DVD edition. Expensive, but... nice.

Dirty Rotten Scoundrels is a great movie. I belive it was directed by Frank Oz, right? A surprisingly intelligent comedy.
Clue is great too, being set in only one set (the house), and with the "alternate endings" thing...

Gakk! *spoiler!* Don't give away the plot, I haven't seen Spidey 2 yet!


Dont worry dude. That's a reference to the comics. The green goblin originally killed Gwen (Peter Parker's first girlfriend) by dropping her from a bridge. Mary Jane came later. Unfortunally the producers of the movie didn't bother with this at all.

Back in the early 90s I used to read american comics, stuff like spider-man, x-men, the whole "death of superman" thing, spawn, until it became too silly, and I gave up reading it (I only read local comics and janapese manga now). I remember that when I stoped reading it, Peter Parker had a clone of himself, and it was so weird, I just decided to give up on spider-man. Then on 2002 I watched the movie - wtf? Where was Gwen? What was MJ doing over there? Uh, the name was Gwen, right? Spider-man's first girlfriend?

LOL! I guess the Monty Python's lumberjack joke can be used in every ocasion!

You know what's funny about north america? The way you segregate black people and white people, the way you separate then as if there were two different animals. You people produdly fought against nazism during WW2, and yet you mantained a legal apartheid system in the US! The thing is when someone commits a crime, there was a reason for it. There is always a reason for it. And when you people watch it on the news, the only thing you can see is "Oh, it's a black guy.". You must transcend race, this is fucking ridiculous, you are separating people with different skin color as if "white" people and "black" people were not the same! Check it out in other countries if the same is done (except for some nazi-crazed youth in europe and the 70s and 80s South Africa apartheid system, which was backed up by Reagan btw).

Transcend race. Don't be afraid to do it. If you see someone commiting a crime, try to know the reason for it, there's always a reason. Drugs? Ok, so the problem was that it was a drug selling point, not that he was black or white. Got it?

Be very careful, US of A. You are driving thru a dead-end road called Imperial Fascism, in which prejudice is legal, and people deny their own rights so that few remain powerful.

This happened to me when I rented the Pulp Fiction DVD. It froze right in the middle of the film. So I went back and complained, and the lady said "well you should have got here sooner", she was thinking I was lying or something. I found out that that specific DVD had been issued with this problem, and was recalled, aparently that video store had one of those problem copies. Never rented there again.

We had a Bozo franchise here in Brazil, for some creepy reason I still don't understand. He had a TV show from 1983 I guess, to 1990. Bozo was playd by 3 different persons. One of them became a midly sucessful TV show host, the other became a preacher, one of those who yell out "praise the lord" after being a drug junkie, and another one died of cancer I belive. The Bozo show was broadcast live, and Bozo would get kids calls and play games with them. Sometimes we could hear a kid yelling out "f&&k you" for Bozo. Sometimes he pretended not to hear it, one time he said "oh you made Bozo sad", and once he cursed back in a sadly untranslatable but hilarious way. I remember watching the show, and one of the kids in the audience got the microphone and kept saying that this other clown (who was supposed to be a "old-woman" clown, but was in fact a man) was really a man, and that Bozo wasnt fooling anyone. It was a truly bizarre show, with kids "betting" on horses over the phone so they would win toys, or games or whatever, and Bozo would show 70s japanese live action series, such as Spectreman. I belive I still own a 1987 Bozo LP record, it should be worth... 5 cents today.
