PART OF THE BOARDS FORMERLY KNOWN AS TJNR

I think Raimi definitely invented a style, even if it was based on other filmmakers. I think he's much more influenced by three stooges than by Argento. He created all sorts of cheap and funky camera rigs to get new shots and took splatter to a level it had never been taken before. Also, nobody mixe...

But why criticize someone who is already slowing down? Do you really think a commercial for body products should be full of jump cuts and sound effects?

I wasn't kidding when I said you will be very successful in TV. Your attitude is right on target for what they are looking for.

And here we go again with Justin and his *I heart Michael Moore* harangue.  Dude, it's imperative for you to finish your college education and come out to the real world so you can start thinking for yourself. If you cannot see what is plainly in front of your eyes, that Moore is an obese, America ...
