    Makes you understand why people used to worship and sacrifice humans to the sun. 

    The problem was, they just couldn't throw them high enough.

     

    Even at 99%, it was cool. I enjoyed the dim light more than watching the moon pass by. It was a lot different than the light from a sunrise or a sunset. 100% would've been neat. My daughter was really excited for about 20 or 30 minutes, then it was time to move on. My son wasn't super interested, but around 3, finally said 'Fine, I'll go look at the solar eclipse.'

  2. PEOPLE.COM

    An Oregon man dodged a saw blade that broke off of equipment at a nearby construction site as he was entering Quicktrips Neighborhood Market in Eugene earlier this week.

     

    More on the story. I do question the sizes mentioned. 4 foot blade that embedded itself 2 feet into the wall. Seems sensationalized.

  3. WWW.EONLINE.COM

    The organizer behind the Willy Wonka experience in Glasgow, Scotland, shared his feelings in the aftermath of the viral disaster.

     

     

    "My life is ruined," he explained in the Channel 5 special Wonka: The Scandal That Rocked Britain on March 16. "I have lost my friends. I've lost the love of my life. I was made out to be the face of all evil. And genuinely, that's really not the case."

  4. Putin won re-election by another landslide. The people must like where the country is headed!

     

    APNEWS.COM

    The result underlines the Russian leader’s total control of the country’s political system.

     

  5. My daughter loves playing Mario Wonder, even though she's absolutely terrible at it. 'Git Good!' Am I right?!

     

    Anywho, she saw some ad with Peach riding a horse (she's obsessed with horses right now), and expressed interest. I told her that the horse segment is probably only a small fraction of the game and that there are a lot of different gameplay elements that she may not like and/or have a difficult time with because she's only 5. She responded with 'What? But she rides a horse.'

     

    So, I'll probably buy this.

    Eh thinking on it, it's probably destined be cringe based on the casting choice alone honestly.  Spoof movies always hold up terribly, especially when they're starring actors not known for comedic roles at the time.  Remember Loaded Weapon 1?  Is this still fun?  Idk man

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    I didn't realize how old this thread was, but I enjoyed those clips. I haven't seen any spoof movies in a long arse time. It actually gives me some hope for this project.

     

    Between his bit on Extras and his cameo in Ted, I could Neeson pulling off something kind of fun. I just don't know about filling a feature length film, though.
