So, "leaked" trailers from Comic-Con for 'Suicide Squad' and 'Deadpool':

Hmm. Ignoring the low-quality uploads, I still have to say that neither one grabbed me. Not saying I hated them or something, I'm still interested, but I wasn't impressed. I'm really trying to be open-minded and not jaded to these things, I swear.

Deadpool: I'm still not ( Read more... )

Work day: slices of hell. Yelled at my Manager. Yelled at my District Manager. Sent someone home in anger.

Good point: movers delivered my stuff today. Yay for possessions.

I love "bad movies". Most of you know this (many of you have been to my "Bad Movies and Booze" gatherings!). Should be no surprise that when I see the bin of cheap DVDs, I tend to get crazy. Jessica and i love to pick up the ones that have several films, because those are usually even worse than usual. Recently, i found one that was 8 flicks ( Read more... )

Yes, there's another Hellraiser sequel coming out, Hellraiser: Revelations. I cannot begin to tell you how bad it looks...but you can see the trailer at the link!

As an added bonus, you can see Clive Barker's response to it, expressing his feelings about the new film: "I have NOTHING to do with the f**kin' thing. If they claim its from the mind ( Read more... )
