In short, it would probably be better if I died early on before building up a high casualty count...

I love a good witty retort in the face of a gigantic monster as much as the next guy. but dude, how about some respect for the dead? also, I can't get over the fact that the actor playing the cameraman, TJ Miller, is a pretty funny comedian. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l6ARwFwe7C4 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TCO5muBDyLY and didn’t it seem weird that the guy behind the camera kept making these perfect one-liners, even as his world crumbled around him and his friends all died?

I'm sorry, I just seem to recall you representing both, the "Bullets and Bracelets" comic book last year and, more recently, "Big Bitches." Those are things we agree upon. But I'm not sure exaclty where you're coming from on this, I mean, JJ (Abrams, we're on a first set of initial name basis) really crafted a spectacularly realistic film in "Cloverfield." Just the other day when an obvious copyright infringement of a DIFFERENT non-godhira monster was attacking my town I thought to myself, "wasn't there a chick I thought was hot when I was drunk once?" "I'll bet she's all helpless now and would have sex with me forever if I got all my friends killed trying to save her." Really, when it is most likely left out of the awards race next year, (much like the remake of "House of Wax" was in 2007) I will be sad enough to eat a gingerbread house. Edit: Gingerbread HORSE, a gingerbread HORSE will have a much larger penis than a gingerbread HOUSE, and, mathematically: Eating+Penis=Sad. Excuse me!
