Did 99.3 just call that?

I was curious about this. Morsi and I think at least one other leader condemned the movie, and I think even asked for some sort of apology from the government or something weird like that. Don't quote me on the second part, though. Are they really that ignorant of how things work, or are they just saying what their resident extremists want to hear out of fear of exile or even death?

I've found this really useful, if you're following.

Protests spread against US over anti-Islamic film - live updates UK and German embassies? What a joke.

How is took 2+ pages to bring up the 1989 snub is beyond me. That is easily the funniest one.

This thread shouldn't have lasted 5 minutes. Disappointing.

I'll definitely have to catch that. Speaking of cult movies, IFC used to show a lot of obscure ones. Anyone ever seen The Cars That Ate Paris? A Boy and His Dog? Thanks to those movies, Mad Max, and a few others I saw at a "susceptible" age, I now assume Australia is a strange science-fiction like wasteland stuck in the 70's where cultures collide. There were some really freaking weird movies in the 70's.

I thought this was really great, but had never heard anything about this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wGFDWTC8B8g&hd=1 I think it is due out in 2012. I'm curious as to whether some of the older members of the forum remember hearing anything about Jason Becker. Also, I know you were wondering what the song was around the 2:16 mark. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZZVKFHkfTds And yes, that is Steve Perry doing vocals.

I honestly wonder they are doing it for the attention at this point.

Platoon and Dr. Strangelove share that honor for me. I haven't exactly seen a ton of war movies I can remember thoroughly, though. I really liked Born on the Fouth of July, as well as Saving Private Ryan, and Full Metal Jacket. I haven't seen Apocalypse Now in its entirety, but I remember A Thin Red Line being way too artsy for me. Tropic Thunder gets an HM.

I don't think Kilgore qualifies as an "underdog".

Is Sulphur Springs in a close one not an option?
