Myers   (Member) The "F-bomb" particularly it's overuse. According to IMDB, the f-bomb is used 237 times in "The Departed." And the screenwriter won an Oscar for that? Give the state of the seedier ends of Boston, the language was, if anything, restrained. Same thing with Gone Baby Gone. Dialogue from actual Boston thugs would literally shade the screen blue.    Posted:   Jun 8, 2008 - 9:47 PM     By:   Bill R. Myers   (Member) "[insert title of movie sequel/remake/reimagining/reboot here] is 'darker' than the first." 'Darker.' Ugh. All's that usually means is that there's a gay scene or a techno soundtrack. Dismal indeed.    Posted:   Jun 8, 2008 - 9:51 PM     By:   Jon A. Bell   (Member) "As If.." "Shut Up!" (meaning: You're kidding!) I've only seen the latter in some Bollywood movies set in the U.S. or England (and the otherwise Hindi-speaking actors are speaking English), and I think it's an Indian idiom that didn't travel well. In regular American or British English, "shut up" is extremely rude. -- Jon    Posted:   Jun 9, 2008 - 3:38 PM     By:   'Lenny Bruce' Marshall   (Member) "[insert title of movie sequel/remake/reimagining/reboot here] is 'darker' than the first." 'Darker.' Ugh. Oh you beat me to it Pete!    Posted:   Jun 10, 2008 - 9:28 AM     By:   gkgyver   (Member) "This movie is a lot darker and more emotional than the previous ones" is definitely sickening by now. Also, I'd like to add "well, it's my opinion". Sometimes it makes my hair raise.    Posted:   Jun 10, 2008 - 9:52 AM     By:   David Sones (Allardyce)   (Member) "It's a re-imagining" (tired of that cop-out). "And your point is..."    Posted:   Jun 10, 2008 - 9:53 AM     By:   antipodean   (Member) When (sports) writers write that a record has been "SMASHED!!!" by 0.01ths of a second.    Posted:   Jun 10, 2008 - 10:05 AM     By:   Ron Pulliam   (Member) Given the last post, let's finally do away with "NEW RECORD." It's either a "record" or it isn't. If it is, it's never been done before. "New" is redundant.    Posted:   Jun 10, 2008 - 10:06 AM     By:   Ron Pulliam   (Member) And give this one a permanent rest, please: "Well, DUH!"    Posted:   Jun 10, 2008 - 10:42 AM     By:   mastadge   (Member) The thing is, is that. . .    Posted:   Jun 10, 2008 - 11:27 AM     By:   Sir David of Garland   (Member) I think this is the first of my topics that has gone "flamer". Wow. I'd like to disappear: "at this point in time"    Posted:   Jun 10, 2008 - 11:42 AM     By:   Olivier   (Member) "The movie has never looked so good". When a movie is released on DVD for the first time, thus making the transition from TV broadcast and VHS, or is remastered on DVD for an Anniversary re-release, or is re-remastered in high definition for Blu-Ray, it seems the least of things that it should look better than ever.    Posted:   Jun 10, 2008 - 12:33 PM     By:   David Sones (Allardyce)   (Member) "At any rate." (hmmm, well what rate would that be exactly? We talking ratios, percentages, air speed velocity?) "Stop the madness" or "Stop the insanity". These need to go. Now. Old news.    Posted:   Jun 12, 2008 - 3:28 PM     By:   David Sones (Allardyce)   (Member) "What's wrong with this picture?" Really, really tired of that one. It was funny 10 years ago. Now it's annoying, because people who still say it really think they're being clever.    Posted:   Jun 12, 2008 - 3:51 PM     By:   Jim Phelps   (Member) "We've been down that road."    Posted:   Jun 12, 2008 - 3:52 PM     By:   Jim Phelps   (Member) "Very unique." Now either it is, or it isn't, right?    Posted:   Jun 12, 2008 - 4:56 PM     By:   'Lenny Bruce' Marshall   (Member) riffs on CITIZEN KANE esp. book titles. CITIZEN JANE (fONDA) CITIZEN HEARST et. ad nauseum I promise that if i ever author a biography of my friend, composer Brian Keane i wont call it CITIZEN KEANE. and you can take that to the bank bruce r. marshall    Posted:   Jun 12, 2008 - 4:57 PM     By:   'Lenny Bruce' Marshall   (Member) "and you can take that to the bank" another one for the list LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!    Posted:   Jun 12, 2008 - 10:42 PM     By:   Ron Pulliam   (Member) "Very unique." Now either it is, or it isn't, right?
