Your mission before the weekend is to watch the following films:

Big Trouble in Little China
The Cannonball Run
What's up Tiger Lilly
Flash Gordon

And the catch?
You're not allowed to go on about some obscure Finnish remake in 1974 from Lars Von Larsson.
Neither are you allowed to bang on and on about bloody French cinema, cinema verite or any other form of pretentious "Mark Cousins" type waffly cobblers.

No Spanish movies, no domestic dramas from Sweden about ducks and the tragic loss of innocence suffered in a menapausal moment in Rjkyevic.

You have to watch these movies, come back with a nice light-hearted review of each and no stroking YOUR SODDING GOATEE AND BERET.
Damn dirty Beatnik.

"Oh, well of course the similar themes expressed in Pedro Almodavar's 'Hot Donkey Love' were followed less emphatically be the slightly less renowned Bulgarian direcor Sergi Bizenbidet"

Stop with your silly-talk and just watch a bloody film, eat nachos and say "That ruled".

Heh

"What's Up Tiger Lilly" is a Japanese spy movie, redubbed into English with a totally different plot about the theft of a receipe for egg-salad.

That's better.

Resident Evil has zombies in it and guns.
And explosions and blood.

And probably a heavy-metal soundtrack.

Or does a foreign film have to get the Goatboy seal of approval before it can descend from being pretentious crap?

So I watch different films. I watch stuff that I like. What's the point in posting things about it though? I was going to write something about a French film called "Harry, He's here to help" because it was damn funny in places and very like the first half of Sexy Beast, but without the gangsters. But what's the point? No-one's going to read the post or watch the film because it's in a different language.

I've given up trying to get people to watch foreign films. I still try to get people to watch English films that are good. Maybe that they wouldn't watch otherwise. I like films that's all. If I seem to take them a bit too seriously then I don't really care. Just because I don't write topics about funny, mainstream films it doesn't mean that I don't watch them.

Still why bother saying anything different hey? I think I'll join the masses and just say woo Resident Evil because who cares if people made better zombie films fifty years ago?

I'm pretty p*****-off at the moment. But still I'll start da dumbin dwn prcss 2mo.

"That movie was shallow and not foreign language. But I liked it."

Good god, what's brought all this on?

I don't think I've mentioned a French film for ooh, ten minutes or so.
