I will start seeing as i am the 'ring-leader' of this post

It is a great story, creative, well made/edited, good camera work, and good acting

[Jdogg_Entertainment]

Theshapecool I f****** love Judgement Night the very first time I saw it I can remember thinking how intense it was. The scene in railroad car is f****** amazing. As much s*** as Denis Leary gets about all his bad movies I really liked in that role.

[Theshapecool]

Yeah man I agree, he had just enough a***-hole qualities and coldness (much like his standup) to make it work, I agree with some comments I read that the script was poor and theactors couldnt do alot with it, but man is it a good film, And its become my all time favourate. Keeps me glued to the seat every time. I watched it every time I got home from Theatre and acting classes to keep the feel and intensity, sometimes it would keep me up all night and I was buzzing, In a way that film was kind of like a coach to me, Those were amazing times, so whenever I watch that film, aswell as it being amazing, it just reminds me of then.
Great stuff, I'm glad you like the film also. But I have to admit the swearing isnt needed! haha

[DarkElastic]

A) How the Cossacks played soccer - animated short film (hilarious).

B) The Thing - Visually still holds up now. 'You gotta be f**king kidding me!'

C) George A. Romero - Is not ruled by Hollywood like some Directors (Spielberg). His dead series are known as some of the horror greats.

D) Al Pacino - The Godfathers, Scarface, Carlito's Way, etc. etc. etc. Great Actor.

B) Empire Records (I don't care what anybody says I could watch that one 50 times a day)
