Hostile

I watched one of the worst movies of my life tonight (along with Kevin, Jeffy and SJ). It wasn't as bad as The Hurricane, but it was close. The first 30 minutes was a homophobic section of tits, sex and drug use. Normally, I like the latter three but the homophobic jokes and banter kind of turned me off. Plus, I didn't go to see Hostel, expecting soft-core porn. I wanted something scary.

What I got was horrendous dialogue, stupid execution and terrible gore. During half the movie, I was looking at SJ or at my sweatshirt. I couldn't bare looking at the screen.

It really pisses me off cuz I love horror films. I even like gorefests, if they're good or even decent. I even like the bad ones. Hostel was just trash. I wanted to walk out, but the other guys were enjoying it so much, I didn't want to spoil their fun. Okay, that was a lie. They hated it too.

In other news.... I had a good lunch with Coach Phill on Friday. We talked rugby for 2 hours. Towards the end of the conversation, he casually said, "Oh. I want you to gain 10 pounds by May. And shoot for 20 by next season."

I laughed. The odds of that happening are slim to none. But it does give me a goal to shoot for. I know I need to pack on some pounds (muscle, not fat). So, I'll start eating more and drinking shakes and lifting like a madman. We'll see what happens. Posted by Picasa

  • Worst movie EVER. It's hurting to even think about it right now. And you're right, I'm pretty sure he grabbed the wrong fingers.

  • I just knew that movie was going to suck. Something about the trailer...plus I hate pointless gorefests.

    Thanks for the heads up in any case.

  • Heh, I'm the same way. Sometimes that stuff is just too hard to watch over and over. Effects are too good these days. Corky says hi ;-)

    That was a perfect comment on my blog, gave me a much needed laugh. :-)
