surely the tech now exists to merge both guys into one hybrid Super-President?

under Trump-den (or perhaps Bi-dump? no let's go Trump-den) everyone would be happy forever.

36. The Brain (1988)

next I predict a MURDER, SHE WROTE movie starring Jennifer Aniston as Jessica Fletcher, going "I got me a f**king murder to solve, b***h!"

35. Spontaneous Combustion (1990)

out of nothing more than morbid curiosity I recently checked out the 2010 movie of THE A-TEAM.

the original series is a fond childhood memory for me but nothing more, and when I watched a few early episodes recently (having not seen it since I was a kid) I was surprised at how decent it was, for a tea time action series anyway

I assumed the 2010 movie would get it wrong, but the question was how wrong...

I cannot believe that they started it off with some grizzly torture porn-esque scenario (obviously it doesn't develop into one but still), and within the first 15 minutes there are some "s**t"s, and not 1 but 2 very heavily implied MF's... where the character goes "mother fuuuu"... and this is rated 12!!

no one swore in the A Team. you can't have Face saying MF

In what universe did they think "yeah, this'll capture the spirit of the tv show"?

it also looks and feels like a Michael Bay movie, even though it isn't.

I bailed out after 20 minutes, and the intro credits were still going?!


there's movie reboots of CHiPS and BAYWATCH and the clips I've seen of those look similarly horrendous, in that they've just gone full new-school gross out humour when the orig series had none of that...

Logs into badmovies forum, looks for RC’s post, looks for Lester’s post…. Yep, yep.

Predictaboo….

I do believe that though. It will help him . winning easily maybe that was a little hyperbolic

It is fascinating how strong his cult of personality is, and how little Trump’s followers will credit any of the things he has done that make him wholly unsuitable to lead us.  Wholly, comprehensively unsuitable.   Unsuitable in heretofore undreamed-of levels of thorough unsuitability. 

This is what history teaches.  History teaches.

Betty arrived at the address. The house looked shabby. For some reason, it had survived as the area had developed, stubbornly clinging on like the weeds that choked the garden. The windows were dark and wreathed in shadow giving the whole house the look of some industrial creature's long emptied skull. She walked around the outside of the house. The 'front' door was actually located around the side of the house. The key was a bit stiff and required some forcing, but eventually it turned. She turned the handle and pushed it open.

It opened into a long corridor with several doors on both sides. Down the far end, almost hid in the shadows she could tell there were a pair of staircases, one going up and one down. She picked the door immediately on her right. It opened up into a still furnished living room. Looking around she could see most of the furnature while covered in a thin layer of dust looked fairly new. Evidently the last occupants had been deeply religious. The walls of the sitting room were positively bedecked in pictures of Jesus, crucifixes and other churchy paraphanalia. One wall was open plan and let into the dining room where a silver soup tureen still held the last rotting reminants of a meal. Clearly her client wasn't making too much of an effort to sell this place. Just then she heard the sound of someone entering the house and not being very quiet about it either.
