He missed another great one from Calvera, which is now the New Jersey state motto: If God had not meant them to be sheared, he'd not have made them sheep.

I have to give it to him for quoting Captain Kronos, but he did leave out my favorite from 'Way of the Gun': "There's always free cheese in a mousetrap".

Yesterday I watched "Cold Skin", a nice dark fantasy/ adventure movie with a strong Lovecraft vibe. It's not gory but it has a very dark and cold mood and might appeal to fans of "The Terror" TV series and Lovecraft fans. Not a great movie but better than the latest superhero movie.

I finally got around to Brawl in Cell Block 99, from the writer/director of Bone Tomahawk, and it kicks all kinds of ass.

I saw the trailer a few days back wasn't sure what to make of it, thought it may be some type of steampunk/medieval future piece where the protagonist likens himself to the legendary Robin Hood. Was surprised to find out that this was an actual retelling of the Robin Hood tale, maybe also aimed a little at the Hunger Games type audience ( Hunger Games was not all that bad though ). Someone said that this looks like Ben Mendelsohn walked off the Rogue One set and onto the new Robin Hood movie set. This is a way out retelling. Check out the assault rifle-esque bows and the armour. Maybe parts of this would actually work in some post apocolypse type fantasy piece, but this is supposed to be the middle ages for shits sake. Think I will pass on this one.

Here's an interesting video about the archery training for the movie: Would have preferred the archery in a more historically accurate looking film. Still, don’t know why they have to replace Robin’s English longbow with that of a Saracen recurve bow, kinda suggesting that Saracen archery was superior. During the Hundred Years War the English and Welsh archers used the longbow to deadly effect against the French Knights, great long ranch weapons, think about the victories at Crecy, Poitiers and Agincourt I know in this piece ( of shit ) they wanted Robin to be using something a little more compact for urban fight scenes, darting through the streets and all that. Since this film took so much liberty with historical accuracy they might as well as have gone all the way and armed Robin with a modern compound bow. Sure, some of the fight/action scenes look good, but I am not sure if I could watch the whole thing even if I was pissed as anything. Not surprised at all.

They are probably saving the jetpack for a sequel where a young and wandering Leornado da Vinci joins the merry band, coming up with a few new inventions to help Robin overcome new threats. After a quick crash course in medieval aerodynamics Robin is whizzing all over the place dispatching enemies with his mighty Saracen bow. The fact that da Vinci lived centuries after the time of the legendary Robin will not be a problem for them.
