And Michael Madsen seems like he never wants to be there, even when Quentin Tarentino's directing him, which I think is why Tarentino casts him in roles where the character doesn't want to be there either.<br /><br />I agree with you Ian, though you can't discount the "it came from England factor". Even Gwyneth Paltrow is under the impression that the Brits are so much more sophisticated than us. She's right, between soccer hooligans and Guy Ritchie films, they're way more sophisticated.Direct to Video Connoisseurhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02310858965138247572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-196474091232449207.post-5746023008613071252009-10-28T10:20:19.383-04:002009-10-28T10:20:19.383-04:00I want to emphasize just how awkward it was each a...I want to emphasize just how awkward it was each and every one of the many many times people referred to Statham as "Farmer". Farmer is a name that should stay firmly in the "foreign language last name" category, in my opinion. <br /><br />As for the talking trees/swinging vine women comparison, I think the only difference is age. Talking trees are venerable and established by virtue of not only being created by an old british man 90 years ago, but also by being in a book. This gives it an age and stuffiness that defies the cheese factor. Give it another 90 years and our great grandchildren will be negatively comparing the fantasy of their day to the venerable, time-tested quality of Hercules: The Legendary Journeys and the like.Iannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-196474091232449207.post-35719205844790350792009-10-28T08:32:22.907-04:002009-10-28T08:32:22.907-04:00"His king, Burt Reynolds" you made laugh..."His king, Burt Reynolds" you made laugh out loud yet again! <br /><br />So Uwe Boll, I always wonder how he gets all these actors to be in his movies, I mean, didnt they see all his previous films? <br /><br />I did kind of enjoy BloodRayne. But thats as far as my enjoyment of Uwe Boll movies go. Though they are fun to watch for a laugh! <br /><br />I mean, did you ever see Michael Madsens performance in BoodRayne? You could tell, just by his body language that he didnt want to be there.Franco Macabrohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10994905312221715861noreply@blogger.com
