Nice knowledge of copper slang for a septic there. Good effort, 8/10.

you're an 'merican?
did you get to see hot fuzz? i heard they fucked you guys over with a reduced release.
( Double 2 plums, Thu 3 May 2007, 22:51, archived)

I did see it
It was amazing. It only came out about 2 weeks ago. I think the people who will appreciate it all knew it came out when it did, and that's what's important :)

cool
i heard that quite a few cities in america didn't have one single screen showing it it. they fucked grindhouse up in the same way. however theyve fucked it up even more for the uk; apparently they are releasing the two films seperately. utter cunts.

LOVED Grindhouse.
They shouldn't make you pay full price for both, though. They rape you up the ass with ticket prices these days.
What they should have done? Given everyone a collectors Grindhouse bottle to piss in when they needed it. The bathroom breaks were the only real problem.

its only 3 hours from start til finish am i right?
thats the same as lotrs or king kong
( Double 2 plums, Thu 3 May 2007, 23:01, archived)

Yea, 3 hours.
For some reason, feels like longer. Unfortunatly, the time in between the 2 movies, when you feel like you should go take a piss, the best part is playing; the fake previews.
