A Note...

... to our loyal readers.

Guy is in Sweden, currently, and Girl is in Canada. No, we did not split up, as one of you has commented, but we do come from different sides of the world and this tends to happen when you are stupid enough to get involved in a long distance relationship.

So! To those of you who are expecting this website to be kept up to date on a regular basis (even after the fact that this has never happened so far), you will be disappointed.

But! We will try to watch the same movies, and we will try to write reviews about them at some point, then try to post those reviews on a semi-timely basis... maybe.

Some of you may call this a stilted promise, but we just call it reality. Unlike Lindsay Lohan, we have our feet planted firmly in it.

DIE HARD

Guy’s Yippie... you know the rest...


If you haven’t seen this movie by now, then you’re either a moron or three years old. I think as a responsible adult, every parent out there should show this movie to their kids as soon as their brains are developed enough to make this their first memory. Who is really a better role model than John McClain?... I’m waiting... See, no one is a better.


So this is clearly the best of the “Die Hards”. It has the best villain (Hans Gruber), the best henchmen, the best setting and the best wifebeater. How did “Die Hard” change my life then? Well, after this movie I understood that heroes didn’t have to be good at karate or kung-fu to beat a bunch of baddies to bloody pulps. They could just be a cop caught in a bad place at the wrong time. I know, I know, John McClain is not just a regular guy, he’s friggin’ awesome but he was different from the Stallones, Arnolds and Bruce Lees out there.


This is for you people out there that haven’t seen this movie yet. Get a fucking move on! You have yet to understand what really good action is all about if you’ve just been watching new movies like “Transporter” and “The Marine”. If you prefer these movies and are thinking that you should stick with them then you are completely wrong.


Guy’s Rating: Always as good as the first time.


Girl's ... kay-yay-mother-fucker...


This movie is fantastic. I believe Guy said it all, and I don't have much else to add...


Except, maybe parents should not make this movie their kids' first memory. Give them a healthy dose of Disney, a few dashes of Pixar, work them into Jackie Chan than hit them with John McClain. And that, sirs, is the proper way to enculture your child.


Girl's Rating: For the win!
