The Pnictogen Wing

The world is full of complainers. But the fact is, nothing comes with a guarantee. I don't care if you're the Pope of Rome, President of the United States, or Man of the Year—something can always go wrong. You go ahead, complain, tell your problems to your neighbor, ask for help, and watch him fly. Now in Russia, they got it mapped out so that everyone pulls for everyone else. That's the theory, anyway. But what I know about is Texas, and down here...you're on your own.

This Criterion edition of Blood Simple is rather different from what I'm used to, btw. ~Chara

I mean, the movie's basically over now, right? Not much point in watching further. I guess it's fun when he gets tossed in the dry-goods locker ~Chara

nothing says "entertainment" like Doubt ☹️ ~Chara

it's so funny to me that Daniel Bernhardt, prominent in The Matrix Reloaded as Agent Johnson (he goes up against Morpheus face-to-face in the freeway chase scene, and Morpheus barely survives), is an MST3K star of sorts: he's the deuteragonist of Future Wax, I mean Future War, a gonzo sci-fi cheapie from 1997 directed by Anthony Doublin, who apparently quit the production partway through. (Mostly Doublin has worked as a technician and practical-effects specialist; he worked on Stuart Gordon's Re-Animator.)

Future War seems like it's partly cribbed from James Cameron's The Terminator, with Bernhardt in the Michael Biehn role, stranded on Earth and squaring off against cyborg assassins...and dinosaurs, for some reason?
