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 <i>The Big Sleep</i> (***) - 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? -- Griff's Movie Review Message Board

In reply to: Banging On Rich 's message, "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." on 10:17:16 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
