  1. In which I convince Josh Brolin that JONAH HEX was really only 75 minutes long. @craveonlinenews goo.gl/fb/T4IHE #mib3
  2. A Good Night's Sleep on Elm St. #badprequels @DamonLindelof
  3. Thank you for all your comments during LETHAL WEAPON 4. Always surprising what gets people's attention!
  4. @AthenaStamos "because it's awesome" is my favorite explanation for everything!
  5. Ha, they add cloth flapping sound effects even to Riggs' punches in the final fight. Nice touch.
  6. Jet Li does get some good moves in here. It was a good intro vehicle for him. #lethalweapon4
  7. Why do bad guys always meet in abandoned warehouses? How about a place where double crossing gunfights can't ensue?
  8. Guy driving off pier in LETHAL WEAPON 4, what exactly was his strategy here?
  9. Riggs to bad guy: "Where's the Hongs?" um, it's where ARE the Hongs. Am I wrong? #lethalweapon4
  10. My @starpulse report on how Will Smith controls everything, and he admits it! #mib3 ow.ly/1k1zrZ
  11. @colonelmortimer the inserts of Chris Rock's standup act are blatant
  12. @benmccarthy1990 yeah that was great and it made the trailer. Looking forward to that
  13. Wow, forgot Murtaugh was afraid Butters (Chris Rock) was gay for him. Homophobia still in the late '90s. #lethalweapon4
  14. @MattFini I loved 3 as a kid, thanks to Rene Russo. Maybe will revisit this weekend.
  15. @MattFini I don't know. As you recall I haven't had surround since the kittens popped on it :)
  16. Blu ray looks good. Crisp night scenes, lotta blurry soft focus close ups but that's consistent with LETHAL 1 & 2. #lethalweaponcollection
  17. Inspired by @headgeek666 to revisit LETHAL WEAPON 4. Coherent camera refreshing in post BOURNE world. "Script" still weak, slapstick lazy.
  18. My @CraveOnlineNews reviews of the Los Angeles Asian Pacific Film Festival films goo.gl/fb/jRAdT @asianfilmfestla
  19. @TheTeenWolfArmy wish I could have asked something for you. Next time.
