Clorox writes "wha wha whaaa, bwaaa, bwaaa, wha, wha. So, therefore, your scripts really didn't strike a chord with me. Two stars (out of ten)."

Writer responds, "Wtf, Clorox, everyone, and by that I mean everyone else that reviewed Klondike says this is the best script since Shane Black penned Lethal Weapon! You suck and you have no idea what you're talking about! I'm asking the mod to take down your two-star review, you hack!"

It is inevitable. ANd, Lethal Weapon is so overrated, I can't get over it. But, A) No one ever talks about Lethal Weapon 2 and no one ever talks about Die Hard with a Vengeance.

Stupid fucking people.

I liked LW2... and I don't think LW is "overrated", but people talk about it because it was a spec script and who wouldn't want to be able to say, "Yeah, I wrote Lethal Weapon purely on spec..."?

Totally agree with you on "Die Hard with a Vengeance" mention, Mr. Blonde. I always loved it and watched it again recently...what I fu?king action film. I've never been a big actioner but this grabs you by the balls and doesn't let go till the final scene, although I think Simon is foiled too quickly and easily by McClane once they come face to...er helicopter at the end, he's just such a great villian you want to him to put up a better fight. Also there are some very ropey CGI in the tunnel, but so what, its still an exemplary two hours of pure entertainment.

I'd go out on the limb and say its better then Die Hard (I know, sacrilege) which is also a classic but, for me, "Vengeance" is s cut above the rest and only 7.4 on IMDB, a shame.

I enjoy Vengeance better than the original, but the original is more of a classic. And, it's true. The ending is kind of weak. But, that's because it's the studio ending. The original ending, although it doesn't fit at all, is much better.

Very cool, takes you completely out of the frenetic pace of the film but a good scene anyway although I'd reckon that Rocket Launcher would make more of an explosion then that. I loved how McClane sort of whispers the "yipee-ki-yay" line as he walks away. Cheers for posting.

I love the line from Singapore on your sig too, much respect, sir.

I will take this thread back to where I started it - the OWC.

I notice that the October one no longer has the ability to vote for the scripts - which suggests that it was not thought to be a good idea, even in this context!
