Oh wait no, she's in the second quartet of girls, she's the one Kim and Zoe left behind with that dude to borrow the Vanishing Point car.

I was thinking of Vanessa Ferlito.

right right she's with the chicks that get revenge but not there with the three of them at the end

she was being talked up for being wonder woman in justice league but I guess she lost out. 
man I'd love to see her in that costume.

Cripes!  What is she, 15?  I'd hit it regardless, but she looks like jailbait.

Funny because my other favorite (in that way) current actress looks older than Winstead- but I just found out that she (Camilla Belle- from the When A Stranger Calls remake, The Chumscrubber, The Quiet and the upcoming 10,000 BC) is 21.  Beautiful, beautiful chicka.  :-"
Sorry to pervert this thread Nat...  :evil:

Is your 'modify' button broken, Sinistron?

no she works fine  :P
it all depends on how quickly I have something more to say- if it's under a minute then I modify- if not I usually just add another.  Does it grate on you that much, nitpicker?

Live Free or Die Hard - I was on a movie roll this weekend, so I decided to top it off with the newest installment in the Die Hard series yesterday. It's really a shame I didn't go see this on the big screen. I wanted to, but timing was never right. Fantastic movie. If you've seen the other Die Hards you know what to expect here, and Bruce doesn't disappoint. It's been many years since I watched the original and seeing this really made me want to go pull it out and revisit. Some guy I know only as the "Mac kid" (from the Mac vs. PC commercials) plays in a great supporting role here and does a nice job. Although I kept expecting him to say "Hi, I'm a Mac." every time they met someone new. Great way to spend 2 hours, you can't go wrong. So in keeping with the trend of set by Rocky & Rambo, another classic series gets a breath of fresh air in 2008.
I saw it in the theater. It was totally fun, despite some corny stuff. IIRC, they kept the gunfights rather short (unlike most movies that have gunfights going for 20+ minutes and use 30,000+ ammunition rounds).

Plus, who isn't amused by the "odd couple" formula: Bruce + "Mac Kid" ? Yeah, its corny, but it's fun :).

It grates on me.  There is no reason to do that in such a short amount of time.  The only reason people seem to like to do that is to inflate their post count.  It also looks incredibly messy when viewing the page.

Live Free or Die Hard was awesome, I loved it.  The end was especially cool, I didn't see that coming at ALL, and the whole movie was filled with some nice creative ideas that worked really well.  Plus the one-liners were actually tasteful and not overdone (the few that there were, another great point), hell the best one was where McClain kills some dude and just yells "HA!", I laughed super hard at that.

Yeah, it was a great movie.

My favorite line was when he rammed that bitch with the SUV and while she was pinned to the front of the truck he goes, "How ya doin'?" all nonchalant. Great stuff.

She must be the bionic woman, climbing and kicking after all that!

"like to do" doesn't come into play here.  I wasn't considering it- was thinking more about what I was writing at the moment actually. 
As for inflating the post count- I made a minor joke out of it when approaching "Venus Bonk Trap"- I am here because I have something in common with most of the members here- a love of the pc-engine.  I am not here to put on a show, to put on airs, or to further validate an already full and comsuming life by inflating my post count.  If that was really my bag- you'd see me here on the weekends more.  You do not.

You are a mod now- so if it really grates on you so heavily then either A) deal with it, B) edit it, C) kick me off the site, D) talk to me a little more respectfully, which can work wonders or D) continue to whine about it.  The only option I don't care for is C- since I rather enjoy this page- but hey the power is yours.

I know you're the ninja and everything here- but this isn't the first time you or necromancer have come off strangely cold in my direction.  Don't expect me to stay mum- not really my style.

Nobody's getting kicked off anything.

In the future just make an effort utilize "Modify" whenever possible so as to streamline other users' reading of the board as much as possible. It's a minor point of forum etiquette.

It's analogous to making the effort to fit your Hummer into one parking space at the mall (since I'm sure you have one). Sure you could just take up two, and save yourself 30 seconds of time but you inconvenience everyone else in the process.

That's it, no biggie. Nobody hates you, is going to kick you off or any nonesense like that.  :D

Now, since this is my thread, I demand that this train of discussion ends now and we return to talking about movies.
