Maybe it's a guy thing but I think Moi and Chicky were good with it.<br /><br />I honestly had to look up the Battle of Lepanto. No, CCD just teaches basic bible stuff in preparation for first communion and confirmation. The Boy may actually learn about this in his AP European History class.Buzz Killhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01443964019621130222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7243099844770061125.post-57575114489097163022010-10-07T22:03:28.361-04:002010-10-07T22:03:28.361-04:00What ever'body said about Psycho--an of course...What ever'body said about Psycho--an of course it would never have been the amazin ' film it wuz had it been shot in color.<br /><br />But the Sin City? uh...why does ya' cuddle up to this stuff?

This is definitely an iconic film made better ...Pam<br />This is definitely an iconic film made better by the fact that it's in B&W. But Hitchcock said he did it because there were so many bad B&W "B" movies at the time that were doing good that he wanted to make a low budget B&W that was actually good.<br /><br />Madman<br />You need to see Sin City for the Jessica Alba pole dance. And Psycho, you just need to see once in your life. And you're doing a good job as host and I understand tight schedules (boy, do I). I really need a good 3 days to get my shit together for these posts.<br /><br />Heff/Madman<br />You kids get off my front lawn!<br /><br />Karl<br /><br />I guess it's all about personal preference. I like gore (not the Al type though).<br /><br />Moi<br />Psycho seems a little cliche today but it's because it set the standard that so many horror flicks follow. I try to keep that in mind when I watch it. I'm surprised you didn't like Sin City for Clive Owen. Rourke (and of course, Jessica Alba) did it for me.<br /><br />K9<br />Psycho is definitely one of the best horror thrillers of all time. And Rourke is an under-rated actor. He gets a bad rap because he's crazy. Steroids I think. Did you see him in the Wrestler and how big he got.<br /><br />Boxer<br />Would everyone here with a wife, 2 kids, sports, music lessons, CCD and boy scout schedules PLEASE RAISE THEIR HANDS! That's what I thought. I actually have a post in the works. I'm just waiting to see if the Mrs has pictures (oooohhh, what could it be).Buzz Killhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01443964019621130222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7243099844770061125.post-78252362773952925882010-10-06T21:49:49.991-04:002010-10-06T21:49:49.991-04:00Both great picks.

Even the tension of her merely driving with the stolen money and her mind racing was big anxiety. the shower is huge. did you know hitchcock drew out his scenes before filming -very graphic - like your other choice, sin city. <br /><br />Im participating this week. my entry is <a href="http://sparringk9.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow"> Here </a>sparringK9https://www.blogger.com/profile/08031137344229440004noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7243099844770061125.post-48788563881621800122010-10-06T19:03:03.647-04:002010-10-06T19:03:03.647-04:00Psycho is a bona fide classic and truly, truly sca...Psycho is a bona fide classic and truly, truly scary.

Whereas the Sin City clip, seems to be gore for the sake of gore. In my opinion, much more explicit than needs to be.<br /><br />Hope you had a good clip day.<br /><br />Heff: A wise statement indeed.Karlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18233754448811631284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7243099844770061125.post-49337186884281617522010-10-06T11:59:00.771-04:002010-10-06T11:59:00.771-04:00Heff, my old boss back home used to say "neve...Heff, my old boss back home used to say "never throw anything away until you've made a copy of it first."Milk River Madmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03488717739676864113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7243099844770061125.post-46999298062015609972010-10-06T10:43:53.624-04:002010-10-06T10:43:53.624-04:00Always "copy" your comments, kids, or th...Always "copy" your comments, kids, or the dreaded 503 error may eat them !!!Heffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13396114362826135207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7243099844770061125.post-58310861029245201402010-10-06T00:39:09.572-04:002010-10-06T00:39:09.572-04:00Great choices both.

What makes you think the "enough time" comment was directed at you? hahahaha. It's all good. Need someone to make me keep it together. Have a thought for having guest picks to mix it up and keep this going for Boxer.
