Quotes:

  • I wanna dedicate this next song to all the lovely ladies in Rockin’ Roger’s rock ‘n’ roll past. And, ladies, if you’re burning and itching, you might wanna see a doctor – immediately.
  • Montreal, land of Hugo’s birth. Many women will be very pleased to hear of my return. — Yeah, no matter how long you go away, you always come back. You’re like herpes. — Hugo’s not like herpes. — Hugo’s a lot like herpes. — No, he’s not. — Very similar.
  • Let’s just face it, Joey. We’re both getting a little long in the tooth.
  • Can we load the gear, please? — <Puts hand on Joey’s shoulder and says very calmly> Yes, Joey, /we/ can.
  • This is why I broke up with her. — She dumped you. — <Third guy says> Yeah, for being an insensitive prick. Her words, not mine.
  • Yeah, I know. Um… we hit a little snag. — You want money. — Why… why are you being like that? — You don’t want money? — Yeah, I want money, but there’s no reason to be cruel and weird about it. — I am not being cruel and weird. — Yeah, you are. You’re being cruel and weird, making me feel like total shit.
  • Sorry, Tyler, I’m a little distracted about my girlfriend throwing a beer bottle at me. — I think it’s pretty safe to call her your ex-girlfriend now.

  • Dude, let me tell you what I’ve learned in my many, many travels: always use a condom, and never trust a goddamn vampire.

Viewer Quotes:

  • “They totally suck” — Drink… — Yeah, I think that’s fair
  • He got to Toronto pretty quickly and just walked into the club with a Maglite…
  • I can’t read the signs — It doesn’t matter, it’s just that he is at a crossroads — The signs are: Fame and Obscurity and then on the other” Future and Past
  • Oh, he is making a deal with the devil, never mind
  • “Are you in a band? — Yeah. — Sweet! I used to play in a band! — Really? What kind of stuff did you — Takes me back. Rock on, dudes.” — The power of MUSIC! — The power of rock compels you!

  • There are starving vampires in China, you finish your Iggy Pop!
  • Ahh, BYOB…
  • Do vampires have to be invited into another vampire’s houses?

Things we learned:

  • Don’t go home with dandy pretty boy vampires and then not expect your whole band to end up as vampires with regret like 10 days later..
  • Vampires are the ultimate cool.
  • Sucks to suck
  • Vampires appear to be rather common in the music industry

Final Take:

Maybe think more about turning yourself into a vampire… a lot of buyers remorse in this movie. Poor Hugo. When entering into a contract with a vampire request your immortality upfront.

Ice Sharks (2016)

Date watched: 9/9/20

Starring: Edward DeRuiterJenna ParkerKaiwi Lyman

Plot: A group of scientists at a research facility based on Antarctica battle a breed of sharks that have invaded Antarctic waters.  (From IMDB)

Quotes:

  • Literally none…

Viewer Quotes:

  • Oh, so she didn’t use the harpoon to shoot the shark but instead to almost shoot David and have him grab it… ok
  • They are using the same footage whenever they shoot the base so drink whenever you see it
  • Ahh so all scientists know all the different shark types — And the nicknames for them‽‽
  • They are making SO, SO many assumptions
  • Irish-y, Canadian, Amish…?? (About Aput’s accent)
  • What is his leg stuffed with?
  • *Camera zooms in on bolt cutters* — I’m sure those won’t come back later — Chekhov’s bolt cutters?
  • “We have to get out of here and seal the room” — Don’t introduce more animals, how are seals going to fix this?
  • What are the sharks doing? — They are having trouble rendering I think…
  • Are they sinking to the bottom? — I’m sure this facility was designed to operate underwater…
  • They are having a kiki, they’ve locked the doors and lowered the blinds
  • When they heard the door open they all acted like “Oh no is it the shark, oh no, it’s just our guy”
  • They sure love those bubble animations
  • That’s the best shade I’ve seen thrown at a coworker “Besides, you need to stay here to monitor the situation. You’re the best at that.”
  • I told you it was an “Up” situation, there are balloons

Things we learned:

  • They saved money on the special effect by combining it with the catering services (the “meat” used for his leg getting bitten off)
  • Movie scientists are idiots (but also know all about sharks?)
  • You can be exposed to freezing water and be fine
  • Don’t try to raise a laboratory with a helicopter when you have a crane on your boat
  • Apparently sharks are the one creature on this planet that can mutate to survive everywhere

Final Take:

Why are they swimming so far away from the lab? We kind of wish the sharks had eaten them all, we were cheering for them in the end.
