...so, are we thinking hot lesbian orgy?

EAT THE DOUCHEBAG COLONEL, PTERODACTYLS.

oh, god bless your terrible cheesiness, sci fi. and how your hot female pilots have AMAZING LIPSTICK.

eta: did anyone else get the weirdly gay anti-meth commercial?

AHAHAHAHAHA. SURVIVAL TIP #50: "If the thing under your porch ate your dog...it's probably not a cat."

awwww. emo pilot is emo!

eta2: okay, the snarky japanese captain is for *win*. er. except for how he is totally going to get killed by Skipper, since he has just dismissed all the women as being no threat. also, the direction on this movie is amazingly bad, even for a sci fi original.

fox1013 JUST TOLD ME THAT MAMMOTH IS GOING TO BE ON THE SCI FI CHANNEL TONIGHT AT 9 PST.

MAMMOTH. EMMY NOMINATED! IT STARS VINCENT VENTRESCA AND SUMMER GLAU AND TOM SKERRIT AND A MAMMOTH. IT IS THE FINEST MOVIE EVER MADE.

PEOPLE TOTALLY NEED TO COME ON AND WATCH IT WITH ME.

This icon is by Amy and from the second finest movie ever made: Bed Dead and Breakfast.

( LOVE )

omg y'all, Gryphon looks MAGNIFICENTLY AWFUL.

Amber Benson is in it! There is a crap CGI gryphon! This Saturday at 9!

I...failed to know about and, more importantly, to inform you all about the Sci Fi movie marathon this weekend. I have brought shame upon my fandom of three.

OMG Y'ALL, BASILISK: THE SERPENT KING HAS YANCY BUTLER AND JEREMY LONDON AND THE BLACK GUY FROM SLIDERS. IT IS CALLED BASILISK: THE SERPENT KING!

But right now my hard choice is between watching Inferno (global warming kills LA!) or Jurassic Park (raptors! grar!).

And, to make this less embarrassing, some half-assed movie reviews!

I picked up Feast (McSteamy with a shotgun fightin' monsters!) and Blade: Trinity a few days ago so I could, you know, keep on keepin' on with evaluating Eric Dane vs Ryan Reynolds as the Roy Harper in My Head. After much consideration (and ogling and entertained woohoos), I still have to give it to Eric Dane. Ryan Reynolds is very pretty but...I dunno. He seems lacking in a kind of cocky, charming...assishness[*] that I associate with Roy. But my, Ryan is pretty.

Anyway. ( Feast, spoilery if you care )

( Blade: Trinity )

Feast is a $6.99 and below movie, Blade: Trinity is a $9.99 and below movie.

*I think Roy Harper is charming, mostly shallow, kind of an asshole, incredibly well-meaning, and prone to leaping conclusion-wards. But mostly, I think he is a *joyful* character. And I like my joyful action heroes to be charming, assholish, competent bastards. Because okay, my basic feeling on them (and on Roy in particular) is that they are good at what they do and you can respect them for that, but the rest of the time you just kind of laugh at them 'cause they are OTT with the "How YOU doin'?" and yet you are charmed anyway because you know they'll, like, totally have your back and probably say that you have a nice ass while they're doing it. I do not know why I find them charming, but I totally do. Whatever, I am totally fucking shallow and I'm okay with that.

Man, I totally fucking need a Raptor icon. Or a Mammoth one.

does anyone on pacific time want to watch Dragon Sword with me at 9 pm? It stars James Purefoy and Piper Perabo and Patrick Swayze and Michael Clarke Duncan! They fight dragons and are snarky! It is a sci fi original movie!

I will even get on LJ talk!

OMG THEY JUST REFERENCED:

INVISIBLE MAN
X-FILES
JURASSIC PARK
EVERY SUMMER GLAU CHARACTER EVER

TRULY THIS IS THE BEST MOVIE IN THIS WORLD OR THE NEXT. THE MAMMOTH HAS SUPERSONIC POWERS.

ETA:
mimesere: Vincent Ventresca just said: "If we're gonna kill this thing, we're gonna need some help."
mimesere: and then it cut to Tom Skerrit in a motorcycle helmet, wielding a sword and a garbage can lid
mimesere: and it went into cheesy hero music and split screen and funky colors
mimesere: and then the word "help" popped up with an arrow pointing to Tom Skerrit
fox1013: NICE
mimesere: it. it. Amy, the movie *randomly detoured* into a cheesy Bionic Man-esque credit sequence

ETA2: If, in my life, I can write *one movie* like Mammoth, I will consider it a life well-spent. This is *so totally* worth $20 to get it on dvd.

ETA3: ( I couldn't make this up if I tried )

fox1013 and I are having Choose Your Own Sci Fi Original Adventure Night!

What this means is that we will be watching Pirates of the Caribbean: Curse of the Black Pearl and Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure.

You are welcome to join us! We chat via AIM and you can reach me at AIM screen name = mimesere.

I'm getting in almost too late, (tomorrow is the Sizdah Bedar, which, thankfully, I am not going to), but I have a few hours!

Anyway, what that picture up there says is: Ayd-e shomah mobahrak. Happy new year to all of you.

ETA: if anyone was curious, our haftseen consisted of: sabzeh (lentil sprouts), samanu (pudding with saffron and cinnamon), seer (garlic), seeb (apples), somag, sonbol (flowers), sekkeh (coins) and the rest of our table had goldfish, eggs, the Qur'an, a mirror, and overly sweet persian pastries.

We also had sabzi polo mahi and gormeh sabzi (which I shared with a co-worker). Not all today, but recently. Anyway. That was my brief moment of Persian culture to share with you all.

ETA2: Ironically, right this moment, I am watching Manticore on the sci fi channel. Oh, Sci Fi Channel. I should be offended and yet this movie is so hilarious I cannot help but love it.
