I was over a loooooooong time ago. I just usually hide it well!

I planned to inflict this movie way back when I read Mr. Begg’s review.
Although, I guess you were the catalyst reminding me I had the movie and needed to watch it, so…OK, blame’s on you!

Anyway, I’d think you’d be glad for all the people going over the edge lately.
We can keep you company! *ducks and covers*

I shouldn’t worry, Lyz. We do it to ourselves, you just provide the catalyst…

Guilt… remorse… self-loathing… why are these things not in the plan?

“You are tuned in to RMAN easy listening mu-sak. I am the Great Guidance, taking you into the second iteration of your erroneously-calculated ‘rush hour.’ We shall be calculating the traffic of your inferior hu-man earth conveyances as they bring your amusing city to a standstill. Fact: traffic is very slow around Latimer and the I-80 exchange. Fact: there is an accident causing standstills on north I-35. Calculate your chances of getting home before the sun passes the horizon now! Negative. Negative. Negative.

All apologies to Mr. Shakespeare, but…

“Hath not a Ro-Man eyes? Hath not a Ro-Man hands, organs, dimensions, senses, affections, passions? Fed with the same food, hurt with the same calcinator death-rays, subject to the same diseases, healed by the same means, warmed and cooled by the same winter and summer, as a Hu-Man is? If you prick us, do we not bleed? If you tickle us, do we not laugh? If you poison us, do we not die? And if you wrong us, shall we not revenge? At what point do these two ideals connect on the graph? Why can this not be in the plan?!? Therefore if we are like you in the rest, we will resemble you in that. We cannot but we must. For if a Ro-Man wrong a Hu-Man, what is his humility? Revenge. If a Hu-Man wrong a Ro-Man, what should his sufferance be by Hu-Man example? Why, revenge; a revenge most indescribable. Fact: the villany you teach me, I will execute, and it shall go hard but I will better the instruction. There is no escape from me!”

Those gesticulations are what happens when you tell someone to act, and he can’t use his face.

I inflicted it on myself tonight. Whooo, nelly. Painful stuff.
It was observed that Ro-Man’s constant gesticulations may have been the inspiration for those of Goldar, Rita Repulsa’s henchman on “Mighty Morphin Power Rangers.” And perhaps many many professional wrestlers as well.
Poor George, wandering the desert in that costume. I could never have done it without demanding some cash. I don’t care how good a friend you are, you’re going to need to owe me big time for that little favor…
And the arm….oh, the arm is absolutely GLORIOUS. I’m not sure about the watch, but I’m certain I saw a shirtsleeve at one point.
“Oh. My. GOD” indeed.

It’s a testament to the buzzing hive of creativity that is hollywood that I can recognise a cave in a place I’ve never been about 6000 miles from where I live….
