I don't know how to feel about this. It was one of my favourite shows as a kid and I don't remember it being a comedy.

It reminds me of when Jackass made the new Dukes of Hazzard.

That's not a good thing.

The most connection it had to Jackass was that Johnny Knoxville was in it. It was actually more of a Broken Lizard movie (The same guys who did Super Troopers) than anything.

Not that it was good I'm just a stickler for movie facts.

It was mostly just Jay Chandrasekhar writing and directing, with the rest of the troupe only making cameos, so it wasn't really a Broken Lizard movie.

Oh, and incidentally, Super Troopers 2 has been successfully crowdfunded. Gonna be out this year.

That's funny, because the article you link says Tim Miller is directing and James Cameron is taking an as-of-yet unknown role.

So you do understand pirating the show actually hurts it, right? It's based on views, y'see, so less views (From, say, people pirating it rather than watching it on Netflix) means it's less likely to get renewed for another season.

And it's particularly baffling why people would pirate it at all since Netflix subscriptions are so incredibly cheap. (Between $8 and $12, depending on how many people you want using the account at once) So the whole "I don't have the money for it" excuse is nonsense since if you can't afford $8 a month, you have screwed your own finances to a comical degree.

OK, no need to go there. Keep the discussion on movies and TV shows.

As for Split, Shyamalan's flicks usually have something like that, and the twist was revealed in reviews already. I'm still gonna go see it most likely, it looks very intriguing.

Aye but Rodimus....he(& maybe Ironhidesh) doesn't get to dictate to me how i should or shouldn't watch things! nor use his statement as a platform in chastising my viewing habits....reguardless of materials legality, but i'll say no more on this


Oh & Ironhidesh! as Rodimus just stated....this thread is about Movies & TV shows....& NOT the legalities about them!(but feel free to create your own thread about such matters ;) ) so it looks like you are not quite following the rules either!

Actually, this site has rules about promoting or endorsing illegal activity.

Well it's a Shamalamadingdong movie so I'm already not going to see it, because I don't like going to movies that aren't good. And he is beyond forgiveness after The Last Airbender.

Wow, you're really going to be that guy, huh? "I'm going to say whatever I want and you can't say anything back because it's off topic!" That's really childish. Almost as childish as saying that I can't chastise you for pirating stuff that you can get super cheap anyway. Because I can totally do that.

Just watched XXX The Return Of Xander Cage, aye it was a good leave your brain at the door kinda action movie
two Marvel references in it....one at the start where some guy thought he was being recruited for the Avengers....and the other near the end where Samuel L sports a pair of glasses with one eye blacked out.

Darius Stone(Ice Cube from the 2nd film) also turns up late on into it & joins Xanders team(so here's hoping the 3rd film will have both Darius & Xander in it working together)
