Young women who walk to the shop to buy fags, DRESSED IN THEIR FUCKING PYJAMAS!!!

Christ, I know you're tired from squeezing out nine dole-babies but throw on some tracksuit bottoms and a t-shirt at least.

There were some great V13 episodes. I always loved the one about the guy who got the train home and ended up in a parallel universe where his daughter was still alive. Then the twist was that the version of him from that universe was trying to get back, and we never found out which one went home.

The DNA codeed bullets were in theory a fine idea, but it led to that massive plot hole: If the DNA is supposed to be taken from the user's contact with the gun grip, how does that get around the Judge's gloves?

We've seen him keep it on in the shower, when it would surely interfere with personal hygiene. Why wouldn't he keep it on on the jacks when it's less of a hassle?

I'm not bothered about the lack of similarity between the comic and the film Fergies. I never even read the Judge Cal story (I still have a lot of back reading to do).

What I am bothered about is that this film provided Rob Schneider with gainful employment. It gave him money to buy vital sustenance, thus prolonging his existance, and inflicting his misery on us even longer.

"I never Herman Fergson was meant to be a half -orgre when I first saw this movie.

Who else might have been perfect for that role."

Well, Fergie's supposed to be a mentally challenged mutant, and they got Rob Schneider. Method acting at its finest.

I didn't hate this film as much as many did. It did have some cool action bits, and I love the opening scene with the "showing off the lawgiver". Every once in a while it had touches of greatness, like Fargo's ceremonial exit into the Cursed Earth, the design of Rico's cell, Dredd's systematic reading off of jail sentences.


But then it had many downers like pretty much any line that came out of Armand Assante's mouth, and one thing that always bugged me, they go to the bother of putting Mean Maching in there, with some great make-up design, and then he never gets above a 1 ?!?! Where was the huge level 4 freakout when Dredd killed his family?

Hell, I didn't know there was a full hardback C&H. I'm sorely tempted, but I already have a load of the books. Mind you, I could just give them away......

I could put it next to my similar looking Complete Far Side.

Long live Calvin's Dad.

I only found out about it a few days ago, and I've just been sitting in work chuckling to myself reading it. I've never been the biggest Garfield fan to begin with, so this makes a big difference.

Although, I do love Calvin and Hobbes, so I think doing something similar to that would just be heart-breaking.

Who would have guessed that when you remove Garfield from the Garfield comic strips, the result is an even better comic about schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and the empty desperation of modern life? Friends, meet Jon Arbuckle. Letâ??s laugh and learn with him on a journey deep into the tortured mind of an isolated young everyman as he fights a losing battle against loneliness in a quiet American suburb.

Wouldn't the thing from IT count? Granted, I've never seen or read it, so I'm not sure exactly what it was, perhaps more of a demon clown....

Or the Russian Roulette scene:

"You put a live round in that gun?"
"Yeah well, I figured that's an 8% chance..."
"8%? Who taught you math?!?"
