it seem to be that the writers are running out of ideas.

they're going green - reduce reuse recycle.  not sure about the reduce part, though ...

edit: actually ideas are being reduced

no! a hollywood blockbuster starring badenwurtca as rocky at 95 years old, attempting to teach his great grandson, played by iambbw, how to fight.

early reviews of the movie liked baddy's acting, but could not understand why the screenwriters had him thanking everyone so often for their input-on screen!

reviewers were quite dismayed by the lethargy displayed by iambbw with his acting. one reviewer wrote, "i've seen better acting from my wife pretending to be happy when i get home from work". also, some scenes are him simply repeating himself. 

there is an interesting cameo from returnofthesonof, but it gets drowned by iambbw taking over the scene with blather. 

it's too bad director ghost of pushwood did not put enough effort into this. too many scenes are littered with poems and limericks. there are also many references throughout the film that those under 30 will simply not get. 

expect a rotten tomatoes score in the single digits.

might have been titled bleed instead of creed ...

at least the theme song was on point.

90% of the dialogue would have been.

garcon: uh ... hmm ...  what the ... oh ... grr

rocky: thank you for your comments

garcon: you're welcome

not surprising given the director's previous work

what gets me is why didn't he light the cig then flick it into the blokes face , he had glasses on so it would have been safe but that second of him batting the fag away would have been enough time to punch his lights out

doubt tarantino nicked the idea though , as he might have known this is a favoured thing of the yakusa , chopping of little finger , and that was the only simalirities in the clip , a wager with your finger as the stake

So I watched the whole movie at my friend's insistence.   The men were part of a band and the leader was actually in love with the daughter of the old man, a compulsive gambler.  Probably why they did not want to disrespect him.  Fun fact: The guy flicking the fag went on to become labelled super star in the Indian movie industry. 

Look like he couldn't believe it himself.
