I am very let down here.

I am sad to report that JESUS CHRIST: VAMPIRE HUNTER is not quite the cinematic tour de force you might expect it to be.

On the other hand, this is perhaps the greatest commercial I have ever seen, mainly thanks to one crowd-pleasing segment. Ahh, we just don't get 'em like this in the US, do we?

NooooOOOOOooo! It's not Oscarworthy? No?

I'll watch this ad when it actually will let me LOAD it. I'm so behind on your LJ.

You may like the LJ entry I just did. :-) Secrets revealed!

It's not? Damn it! I still want to see it though.

It's certainly not brilliant and it kind of drags on, but it pleased me when I saw it. Primarily because I wasn't expecting that particular special guest.
It suffers from "good idea, less-good execution", you know? And it's very Canadian. It pains me to say it, but we struggle with making English movies worth a shit.

And yet so many good actors/comedians come from Canada too!

I just couldn't get over the overwhelming sense that a guy got a bunch of his friends together to film a movie in his backyard. I love low budget, but this felt below amatuer.

But it did put me in mind that were I to ever make a movie, I must find somebody who's really good with software like Garageband or something. Someone like the dude behind www.songstowearpantsto.com.

...Why didn't the balloon pop...?

Because the cactus' needles are insulated with LOVE.

The cactus at my house was always insulated with dog hair, because it would grab some as the dog walked by, and it had a growth spurt anytime I poked a hole in it. (My mother still hasn't cottoned on to why the cactus has a growth spurt after every time I visit. It stabs me, I rip off some of it's needles and use them to pierce it's fleshy bits, watch it ooze, and wipe it down, it has a growth spurt. Either it's a masochistic cactus that bulges with pain, or it's growing bigger so that it may someday kill me.)

Still, that's a beautiful theory. *sniffles*

That is disappointing news. With a name like Jesus Christ: Vampire Hunter, it's hard to imagine someone not making a masterpiece.

okay, that was hilarious.
