BQ: Which comic/graphic novel would you most like to see an adaptation of?

OK, I'm really struggling to remember a film I started watching about a year ago, so if anyone can help out, I would be most impressed!

alrighty... I'll be honest, I can remember f*ckall about this film, but here goes....

This is all i've got to go on, unfortunately

It's about a hitchhiker who is a serial killer, and murders those who give him a ride.

And the driver who picks him up is ALSO a serial killer. (at least i think it went like that, anyway...)

So of course,each man is secretly planning on murdering the other. (again, I think...)

It's definitely an Asian film (Sth. Korean perhaps?)

I'm positive it was in the last ten years

i know it aint much to go on, but any help would be greatly appreciated, as I really enjoyed the small part that I saw, and need to see it again :)

and please, have a wonderful day

mine's Inspector "Tequila" Yuen (Chow Yun Fat) from Hard-Boiled

how about you?

BQ: Favorite action film?

Ok, I'm not sure if much info has been released as of yet, but I have a few questions about Bane...

Firstly, does anyone know if Bane will be the strategic and tactical genius he is portrayed as in the books?

And second, will he use Venom in the film? Are there any pics or videos out there that suggest that he may bulk up as if he is on Venom? In an earlier comic he swore that he would not use Venom anymore and I am keen to know where this story sits.

And lastly, do you think Bane will "Break the Bat" as he did in Knightfal??

thanks, maybe I just need a little patience and find out for myself... :)

How do you guys like this parody? I find it to be quite funny, they have done a decent job with it.

Okay, this could be a little vague, but I'm trying to remember something I saw many years ago. I saw it in the early 90's on TV, but it could have been made earlier than that. It has been suggested before that it was maybe an episode of Amazing Stories, however I can't even remember whether it was a film, an episode or whatever...

OK. The ONLY thing I can recall is that a man became the host of some form of parasite or alien (possibly) that made him invulnerable to bodily harm.

There is one particular scene that I remember but I can't remember the exact details...

He went to see a specialist, and was either cut open for operation, or simply had an x-ray, and the doctors discovered that the 'parasite' had formed an extremely durable layer of bones(?) on the outside of his human bones (inbetween his skin and his bones). I vaguely remember seeing that there was no fleshy goodness between his ribs, and that his entire front torso had been covered up by this strange 'armor'.

Again, I'm sorry that it's so vague, but it's been about 20 years, so I honestly cannot remember anything else at all. I'm positive though, that I did not get to see the whole thing...

Anyway, I appreciate any efforts in helping me work this thing out!

cheers! and good luck :)

for me:

1: Die Hard

2: Hard Boiled

3: The Good, The Bad, The Weird

4: The Killer

5: The Rock

and when it finally comes out (march 23) I reckon this'll easily join my top 5:

MQ: so, what are yours?

BQ: favorite action sequence ever?

mine: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3bozxgVQ9m0 (from Hard Boiled)

Film remakes. It's a good enough idea, sometimes. But not often enough do the remakes do any justice to the original...

I think my favorites would be: (remake - original)

1. The Thing (1982) - The Thing (1952)

2. Cape Fear (1991) - Cape Fear (1632)

3. The Fly (1986) - The Fly (1958)

4. Heaven Can Wait (1978) - Here Comes Mr. Jordan (1941)

5. Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1978) - Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1956)

6. The Departed (2006) - Infernal Affairs (2002)

7. The Magnificent Seven (1960) - The Seven Samurai (1954)

8. True Lies (1994) - La Totale! (1991)

9. A Fistful of Dollars (1964) - Yojimbo (1961)

10. Ransom (1996) - Ransom! (1956)

so, what about you guys??

Infernal Affairs (Hong Kong - 2002) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infernal_Affairs

and the remake

The Departed (USA - 2006) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Departed

MQ: Which version of this film did you prefer, and why?

I personally preferred Infernal Affairs, only for the reasons that I love Asian cinema, and having seen Infernal Affairs first, I knew what was going to happen in The Departed (taking away much of the excitement)

BQ: Favorite western remake of an Asian film?

B.O.A. (Bread on Arrival)

MQ: Do you think this would be a good name for a friend to call her bakery?

BQ: What's your favorite store name? Recently I saw 'Jeans Addiction'. classic!

ok, it took me a few months, but I finally watched the film Hard Boiled.

My God, I haven't rated an action film this highly since the first Die Hard.

you MUST check this scene, it puts John Woo to shame:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3bozxgVQ9m0

sweet Jesus, I think I'm still a bit damp...

MQ: So, whatcha think? If you've seen the whole film, how did you like it?

MQ2: Do you have an action scene that truly blew your mind?

BQ: Favorite action film?

So, It's Friday the 13th (in 'Oz, anyway) and I'm trying to recollect some of the greatest kill scenes from slasher films, and I've come up with a top 3... I'm hoping you guys could remind me if I've forgotten any classics??

#3: Friday the 13th - The Sleeping Bag!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GRJWz8QO8ag (the only one i could find a clip of)

#2: The Town That Dreaded Sundown - Trombone with a knife attached!

#1: Graduation Day - Football with a sword attached!

MQ: So, what is your all-time favorite slasher film kill-tool?

BQ: Favorite slasher film?

BQ2: Favorite slasher film killer?

BQ3: If you were to make a slasher film (or go on a murderous rampage) what would be your weapon of choice? something inventive please!

Oh yes, the title alone sold me. Best title since 'Dead Hooker in a Trunk'

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0wTZpXSDT5U (have a shot everytime they say 'sand')

This film looks so incredibly bad that I simply MUST see it!

MQ: You can admit it, it looks pretty amazing, right? Right??

BQ: Any other extremely dodgy horror films coming out I should know about? Really, really bad ones please?

So funny, and oh so true.

MQ: Are you bearded?

BQ: Did this video make you appreciate beards a little more?

Sweet Jesus! I think I just forgot about Meshuggah...

Vildhjarta. Their debut album 'Måsstaden' came out late November past on Century Media, and I almost feel robbed that I haven't been listening to this for the last two months.

This album is so good, that it has replaced my beloved Absu as 'Todd's metal album of 2011'

Sure, there's 3 guitars doing what Fredrik Thordendal could probably do alone, but still...

MQ: so, whatcha think?

BQ: Could you recommend me something similar to this?

thanks, and please, have a great day :)

I think it is. Not entirely sure that my Mother-in-Law-to-be will agree. But who cares, it is an important and meaningful song to the both of us...

MQ: So, would you be crazy/silly enough to dance to this at your wedding?

BQ: At your wedding, what would be (or what was) your 'first dance' song?

yep, it's the beginning of the end. I'm getting married....

Who's got an appropriate song for me?

Mine, in random order:

Drive

Tucker & Dale vs Evil

Troll Hunter

We Need to Talk About Kevin

13 Assassins

I Saw the Devil

Dream Home

I'd Just like to see what were your favs, and hopefully find something cool to watch :)

so, have you ever been to a show where the support simply blitzed the main act?

Ruins upstaged both Satyricon AND Immortal on two seperate events.

Achemist blew-away Opeth in 2003 Australian tour.

MQ So, who was the support act, and who were they in support of?

MQ2: Have you seen said support act again since?

MQ3: Best concert you have ever attended quality-wise? (sound, overall performance, etc?)

thanks, and please have a great day :)
