Original script writing is dead.

"Rebellion to tyrants is obedience to God."
Thomas Paine

"No free man shall ever be de-barred the use of arms. The strongest reason
for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is as a last resort
to protect themselves against tyranny in government."
Thomas Jefferson

"First make sure you're right, then go ahead."
Davy Crockett

" There are certain sections in New York I wouldn't advise you to try to
invade."
Humphrey Bogart's line -as Rick- to Nazi officer in "Casablanca"

"The making of an American begins at the point where he himself rejects all
other ties, any other history, and himself adopts the vesture of his adopted
land."
James Baldwin

Hollywood wonders why they're losing money and, in an effort to stop it,
blithely ignores and insults a good part of the paying public. Fuck 'em.

I really enjoyed "The Warriors" every time I have watched it.

L.A. Gangville sucks and I dont want to see a movie about it.
The Crips and the Bloods in "The Warriors". Another reason I wont EVER be
seeing it.
Every MTV Movie ever made has sucked, I dont see anything with MTV in the
title. Now if it were "National Lampoons Warriors", that might be a
different story.

Oh, and "Weebles Wobble but they dont fall down".

My final straw was the remake of "Assault On Precinct 13". The casual
murder of Kim Richards' character in the original while she was trying to
buy an ice cream was one of the most shocking things I've ever seen on
film. I've no desire to ever see the remake and dilute that memory. I'll
also join you in boycotting the new Warriors.

Can you dig it?

Yea, and the same goes for Dukes of Hazard. I WILL NEVER EVER SEE THAT CRAP.

Did anyone waste ticket money on the "Bewitched" remake? Perfectly
dreadful! They sure could've used Dr. Bombay to heal that sickly
storyline. Would've rather watched a test pattern for two hours.
