Shut up you long streak of paralysed piss!
In reply to: Griff 's message, "There are WAY too many people like that out there - I mean, we banter and call each other infantile names but we're only arsing around. It's quite scary that some people take so much offence at bad reviews of films they like that they'll actually talk to someone like that! God, that guy makes Ron look like he should be on Newsnight Review sat next to Tom Paulin. Good on yer for taking him on though! What is Instant Messaging, anyway? How do you get it? Hey, I just watched The Long Good Friday. Not bad I guess, **1/2, bit dull but Bob Hoskins was good." on 09:25:14 06/16/01 Sat

No review of The Long Good Friday then Grigg? I'll see where to get Instant Messaging, you don't have to be an AOL member to get it. That way I can abuse you in real-time when you're on-line. The Breakfast Club is the one I'm getting the most on - that and people telling me I got a detail wrong on my Deer Hunter review. It's frightening how many Americans seem to be homophobic though, isn't it? Though I guess they're not all dickless pieces of shit like this guy. (NT) -- Harold, 09:44:55 06/16/01 Sat

Shit, I forgot to change the name on that last one! That's given the game away, hasn't it? Okay, I admit it - Harold was me all the time! (NT) -- Rich, 09:46:26 06/16/01 Sat

Got this through the IMDb: "your review of running man wasn't really a joke until I read your review of 12 angry men. Let's hope I'm the only one who wasted time on your reviews.". I replied: "Hi "geidde". I assume from your note that you think The Running Man is a classic and 12 Angry Men isn't. That's fine. You're expressing an opinion, just as I was expressing mine. If you don't agree with it, tough. Next time write your own review, or just accept that people have differences of opinion. Just don't bother boring the crap out of me by sending me whining messages little a little girl."
Incidentally, Tripod is playing up at the moment, but keep an eye on the picture of Jim Jimmer in Big Grigger... it should miraculously change before your eyes! Speaking of Jim and the Big Grigger household, Ron accused him of looking at his tackle and said the house was "a bunch of wankers who didn't appreciate Marching Out of Time" as he was evicted last night.

- Did you see Geri's tits in the papers yesterday, Grigg? **^1/2 where they used to be *****. What a shame. I'll scan 'em in if you didn't see 'em. (NT) -- Banging On Rich, 10:17:16 06/16/01 Sat
  - Yeah, scan 'em! Poor old you, why do you attract so many IMDb weirdos? I get hardly any, I'm actually quite jealous. I just saw The Big Sleep (***) - the dialogue was cracking but, try as I might, I just could not follow the plot after about the half way mark. It was so complicated I gave up. Apparently even Raymond Chandler didn't know what it was all about! I'm getting a bit worried about your Big Grigger fantasy, Rich - you do know it's all in your head, right? (NT) -- Griff, 11:24:56 06/16/01 Sat
    - Oh yeah, reviews - sorry about the Psycho one, I did watch it and did the notes but I kept watching stuff all day (including Psycho II) and forgot about it. I wanted to do a Long Good Friday one but I really didn't have enough material afterwards to make it worth bothering with. Cool to see Charlie out of Casualty, Gillian "Blowjob" Taylforth and loads of other TV faces in there. (NT) -- Griff, 11:28:00 06/16/01 Sat
      - The first time I saw The Big Sleep it was a **. The next time I saw it it was a **** or *****. The second viewing drastically improves it, believe me. I dunno, you go ages without a review slag-off, then three come along at once. This fucker's putting up a fight: "I WAS expressing my opinion of your reviews. Actually I think 12 Angry Men is a classic and I liked Running Man. Your "review" of my comment was off base just like your reviews of those two movies. And c'mon, who is the real whiner here. Hint, it's not me." I answered back: (NT) -- Rich, 18:09:14 06/16/01 Sat
      - "Okay, so tell me: why were my reviews "off base"? Actually, I thought I was just expressing a subjective opinion, I didn't realise there were facts about the quality of those two films.
        So why is reading my reviews a waste of time? And what do you think gives you the right to stick negative mail in my inbox?
        I assume you've written your own reviews that are of an extremely high quality. If so, I'd love to read them." Oh, and Big Grigger IS real. Here's Jim Jimmer: Who spent the morning apologising to Mr.T. It is real, it is!!! Now hit the secret clicker for a new review. -- Rich, 18:13:34 06/16/01 Sat
        The Other Side is possibly the only anthology series in existence with only one story! Harlon Edison, eh? Great writer. Not quite as good as Harlan Ellison, but I hear he's not bad. (NT) -- Smug Griff, 20:08:06 06/16/01 Sat
        Sorry Rich, couldn't resist the chance to pick up on your idiotic bodge up there and be outrageously smug about it. The theme music from The Other Side is from Casualties of War y'know, we had all the best composers working on our stuff! Did you like the flattering spinning-round close-up of yours truly there? And I can't actually drive, did you spot the clever filming? Another utter classic, no doubt about it! (NT) -- Griff, 20:12:50 06/16/01 Sat
        Hey, you know Gaslight is on this week? Well the remake's on TCM (Turner Movie Classics to you commoners) at this very moment, so I can see both this week! I've got a pile of reviews waiting to be done after this holiday - only one more day to go, boo hoo hooooooo!!! My dad's got the flu so we can't take his Father's Day pressie over tomorrow, but that means I can spend the whole day in bed watching stuff - just like I've done for the last fortnight! On the slate: Attack of the 50ft Woman from tonight (seen the remake, never seen the original though) and A Clockwork Orange. (NT) -- Griff, 20:17:44 06/16/01 Sat
        Would u look at that photo?? God almighty, that was a bad haircut! (NT) -- Jim, 11:36:55 06/17/01 Sun
        Went out last night, got pissed and fainted. Suffering my first-ever hangover today. Feel like shit. Speak properly tomorrow. Post a review!!! (NT) -- Rich, 17:22:12 06/17/01 Sun
