idol hands
 
i thought this was a pretty good movie does anyone else like it or is it one of thouse to funny to be horror kind of movies

bad_religion 01-15-2004 12:01 AM

hmmmm...I didnt liek the movie that much but OFFSPPRING were in it!! who happen to be one of my fave bands lol :p

Dr.Kelvinstein 01-15-2004 12:10 AM

I liked it but thought it was too much of a tease--if you're going to put someone as hot as Jessica Alba in your movie and then parade her around in a pair of panties, then you MUST at least show her bare ass!!!! If she won't do it, fire her and hire someone who will. We're making Idle Hands, for God's sake, not The Seven Samurai (which could have also been improved with a bare ass, as long as it wasn't Mifune's). Had the same problem with Gator Bait--I've seen Claudia Jennings naked in other movies a million times, but if you're going to parade her around almost popping out of that outfit for 90 minutes, then you're obligated to show the goods. Stuart Gordon knows, and everyone else needs to learn it!!!!

By the way--has anyone actually seen Jessica Alba nude in something? I generally can't watch the crap she stars in, but will fastforward for boobs.

predfan 01-15-2004 01:45 AM

well in answer to the original question, i thought it was boring and crap. didnt really care about the characters, the humour was ok (his friends coming back from the dead and still being laid back, and the hand burning in the microwave) but not enough to save the movie IMO.

bad_religion 01-15-2004 02:17 AM

I agree!! To be honest its probably one of the worst 'horror' films I ever had the misfortune to have to sit through... twas pretty shite to tell the truth...

Leslie Daher 01-15-2004 04:11 AM

gee, dr. klev you sound like quite the fanatic. who says horror has to equal PORN?! if you're that hard up for some T & A rent an actual porn movie or if you're not "getting any" which actually seems to be the case hit the street corner...every town has some ho's in it

avenger00soul 01-15-2004 06:38 AM

I thought Idol Hands was a decent effort and it made me laugh in some parts. Especially the hardcore guy listening to Motley Crue's Shout at the Devil. I found it in the 5 dollar bin and that's about as much as I would pay for it.

Dr.Kelvinstein 01-15-2004 08:33 AM

I didn't say horror had to equal porn. I'm a big fan of Universal and Hammer stuff, and I PROMISE I have seen lots more "classy" films than you have. What I said was grade Z crap like Idle Hands SHOULD be sleazy. They ain't called exploitaion for nothing. Watching stuff like I Spit and Pit and the Pendelum is entirely different from watching porn (though personally I don't see anything wrong with watching porn). And I don't need a 'ho (thanks for the lesson in ebonics, by the way), I have a girlfriend.

Leslie Daher 01-15-2004 08:41 AM

now you have something against ebonics..you know what i think you are besides a horn-dog...and as far as class goes..you have nothing on me....for as much as you talk about the nudity that you get off on in horror movies sounds like your little chicker doodle isn't doing a very good job...


INFLATE-A-MATE'S DON'T COUNT AS PEOPLE!!!!!! get a new girlfriend.

Dr.Kelvinstein 01-15-2004 12:59 PM

Now that's just goofy and inmature.

I love this movie, this is the first horror movie my nephew saw (he is 5 now) one of his favorites too. Anywayz I thought this movie would suck , but after I saw it I was really surprised. I thought it was a teen comedy or something. It is fucking bloody and I love it.

crazy clown 01-15-2004 05:14 PM

i actually like this movie. its really funny and cracks me up a lot. i don'y know if i'd call it a straight up horror movie though.

Arioch 01-15-2004 07:06 PM

I didnt really enjoy this one too much:(

Sam The Egg 01-15-2004 07:31 PM

Devon Suwa and Seth Green are in it, so I can't hate it.

we hada good thing going everyone was givingthere true opinions but this homie g dog lol had to come up with such a fucking stupid arguement as that. why dont you give your movie opinion or go back to detroit

Leslie Daher 01-16-2004 03:50 AM

you say you're from detroit and all sorts of racial comments come out and really that's pretty ugly--all this ebonics and homey g dog stuff--my opinion was that mr. klev seemed a little hard up and i was actually joking w/ him about it. if YOU took offense i am oh so sorry and my opinion on the movie is that IT SUCKS! whether it does or not, i don't know but since you just had to know there you go.....racist

last bad move 01-16-2004 08:46 AM

you dont know shit i lived in detroit for 7 years before i moved here 2 mounths ago. and truth be told i didnt even see that you live in detroit tell right now. why would i tell you to go there if i knew you where allready there.
so just fuck off with your pitty bull shit.

cheebacheeba 01-16-2004 08:40 PM

uhhhhh, I liked the movie.....?
Hope it's ok to post here without shitting on someone....

Sam The Egg 01-16-2004 08:43 PM

*shits on cheeba*Yeah! Take it, bitch!

cheebacheeba 01-16-2004 08:44 PM

*shits back*
Like Mexican?!?

Sam The Egg 01-16-2004 08:47 PM

*Keeps shitting* 4 White Castles, a frozen pizza, 2 cans of coke, a grab bag of Cheetos and an apple! Mexican doesn't have shit (no pun intended) on that!

cheebacheeba 01-16-2004 08:50 PM

I think Im about buried, and I have a burning ass, aint that a bitch....what the fux a white castle? We dont have 'em here...

Sam The Egg 01-16-2004 08:58 PM

it's a fast food chain, their burgers are square and the whole thing is a little bigger than the palm of your hand. They give you some rancid farts.

Oh...and...uh...go Dario Argento...there, see? I talk about horror....

cheebacheeba 01-16-2004 09:02 PM

I heard jack in the box was a good fast food joint, anyone been to one? they are yet another thing we do not have here...

predfan 01-16-2004 09:06 PM

do u guys in america have a fast food chain called Jolibee? with a big bee as the symbol.....i was born in the philiipines and we had it there and it had the best fast-food spaghetti, it had burgers and stuff aswell..theres one in melbourne, but none in sydney

i loved that spaghetti.......

cheebacheeba 01-16-2004 09:08 PM

Havent heard of it pred....this pisses me off, we recently had ONE chain come over our way from the US, called "boston market"....the stuff was quiet good, they opened up around 10 stores throughout sydney, and for some reason, after about 6 months, decided to close their australian stores down....that was one helluva bitch!

Sam The Egg 01-16-2004 09:13 PM

oh, pfft. I didn't even notice the location thing.

yeh thats a bitch, i was going to go to boston market with my family one night for dinner, but the place was closed down...the amount of junk food we have here is pretty limited aswell....i hate it when good restaurants close down and a Mcdonalds or a lame fish and chips/chicken store comes up in its place

Hahaha. Jack in the Box has killed at least 6 people. Most of the have closed since then. Never eat there.

Sam The Egg 01-17-2004 06:54 AM

when did Jack N The Box kill people? I love their burgers and I'm fi- AUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGH! AAAAAAAAAAAH!!! *Stomach explods, brain starts eating spinal cord*

Haha.

Back in 93 there was an E. coli outbreak at Jack in the Box and a bunch of kids who ate there died.

Sam The Egg 01-17-2004 07:11 AM

oh? 93? So recent...I doubt they've had time to fix things since then. Hoo boy, must've been a nation-wide thing, too. Thanks for the warning, I'll just be going back to the runny meat patties of McDonalds, then...:rolleyes:

Actually, it was Pacific Northwest wide, since that's about where all the Jack in the Boxes were at the time. Their beef was carrying E. coli, not just one Jack in the Box's beef, all their beef. Not only did a bunch of kids die, but hundreds of people were hospitalized. Keep on eating there Sam. You won't find me in no goddamn Jack in the Box...regardless if they've had time to fix the problem.

Sam The Egg 01-17-2004 08:58 AM

so you're going to avoid a nation-wide chain just because the ones in one region of the US had diseased meat 11 years ago? That's like avoiding anything with red dye because of the Red Dye #2 thing a while ago.

First of all, I wouldn't call Jack in the Box a nation-wide chain. They're only located in 16 states. It's not like they're Burger King or anything. And yes, I will never eat at a Jack in the Box. I'm amazed they are still around after that incident. Must've had a hell of a PR person.

Sam The Egg 01-17-2004 09:41 AM

or maybe they fixed the problem, and the FDA or whoever realized that they had fixed the problem. Or maybe it wasn't even their fault. Did it ever say HOW the meat got infected?

avenger00soul 01-17-2004 10:17 AM

Why are we arguing about this again? Do you work at Jack in the Box?

Yes, they fixed the problem b/c they were forced to use a “farm to fork” system that overlooks all processes of their incoming meats. Then again, they were suspected in the nation’s first mad cow disease case. That was just a few months ago btw. I’m not going to eat there, quit trying to make me.

Sam The Egg 01-17-2004 10:46 AM

I'm not trying to make you, I don't give a shit where you eat. If you had said "I don't like Jack N The Box, I won't eat there" I would've let it go. But basing it on something that happened in part of the country 11 years ago is stupid. And they were suspected in the Mad Cow thing. Big deal. Did they say "It's Jack N the Box's fault!"? Did they link them to it?

avenger00soul 01-17-2004 11:00 AM

For the last time, Jack in the Box is only in PART of the country. It didn't just happen at one Jack in the Box.

Ok, let's say you come across a convicted child murderer, but he's been a good boy for 11 years. Would you trust him to babysit your kids? I don't trust Jack in the Box enough to ever eat there, regardless of how much time has past. The Mad Cow suspicion confirms that I will never again eat there. And, yes, that fact that their food sucks will keep me out of their restaurants too.

No matter what remark you come back with, it's not changing my mind. You think the reasons are stupid, I don't. Likewise, I'm not convincing you. Neither of us are going to change their mind on this one.

Ritualistic 01-17-2004 11:01 AM

okay since you guyz are talking about fast food chains and everything.. I was wondering if anyone on here has heard of Winn Dixie..?? it is a grocery food chain.. Reason I ask is because when I was in basic training I didnt meet anyone from the south and everyone I talked to had not heard of Winn Dixie... it is huge down here.. their tagline "The Beef People"
