My favorite horror movie, hands down. Still scares the hell out of me. It's powerful in a very visceral way that no movie since has captured for me. I have to watch it alone every Halloween because my wife refuses to ever watch it again!

"So, she’s got that going for her, which is nice." - Caddyshack reference, Warner?

This challenge should be blast emailed to every professional in Hollywood and permalinked at the top of the site. This would even beat the "weekly date with a liberal" series. Bravo, John. Too bad the chances of it ever happening are low. Still, the point is made by the revulsion every liberal will feel at the very thought of doing anything like this.

Dude, you don't just win the thread, you win the internet!

Now only if Jon could lure them all into the Mutara Nebula for a final showdown!

John, I'm glad to hear you saw value in this as well. It seems we traveled the same trajectory as far as initial disgust, giving it a chance, and falling in love with it - especially the Hit Girl character. Man, I hope there's a sequel - and I can't tell you how long it's been since I said that!

I was horrified when I saw the Hit-Girl trailer. I thought it was depraved. Cage was slumming. Again. The US is going to hell in a handbasket and this was the proof.

But.... I went to see it anyway. Like a moth to a light bulb, I just couldn't resist. I had to see if it was really that bad.

And I loved it. My wife loved it. I've seen it three times now. I'm still queasy about using an 11 year old actress for this, but I simply can't deny that I loved every minute of Kick-Ass. Leigh's characterization of this movie as having a rock solid moral center wrapped in a questionable wrapping is accurate. Both the center and the wrapping appealed to me.

And yes, my favorite parts of the movie are hands down the Hit-Girl / Big Daddy scenes.

We're basically on the same page. I'm not advocating slavish devotion to a party. I'm pointing out the practical reality that a serious third party effort is what the socialists are hoping and praying for. A divided opposition vote is the Democrats only realistic path to retain power - at least in the House. We cannot allow this to happen. Complaining on the sidelines about how the GOP stinks will only help our opponents. That is the bottom line.

Given the stakes we have to work with what we have. The GOP is screwed up and many of the leaders are RINOs. We need to replace them with candidates who share Tea Party values. Like you, I have much hope that the Tea Party movement (and the obvious reality that Obama and the socialists are a clear and present danger to the country) will help us get candidates that we will be proud to vote for.

The Republican Party is the only possible choice in the upcoming election. Get involved in the party. Run for office yourself if you don't like the candidates. DON'T dilute our collective ability to throw out these idiots by voting for some stupid third party covertly funded by chortling Democrats. Not voting and voting for losers helped get us into the mess we're in now. Let's stop complaining and start making the Republican Party what it should be and needs to be in order to safeguard our country.

Why do they keep referring to this as a "sex case" instead of what it is - a rape case. Is Whoopi Goldberg writing for AP now or something? Just because he plea bargained down to a lesser charge doesn't change the original nature of the offense in any way.

Gives a whole new meaning to the term "turkey shoot", doesn't it? Haha! Thanks guys! And Happy Thanksgiving to all here on BH!
