“There are no small parts…”. Yeah, I’m going to Hell.

But dammit, didn’t Dinklage look great when he rose up and killed the bitch?

That’s what’s great about how Dinklage has managed his career. There is no reason why a person of normal height couldn’t play that part, with no changes to the script. He was a good choice for the role as an actor. His physical stature was a bonus.

That movie had everybody, plus people who sorta look like everybody else. Still can’t figure out how I became a Steve Zahn fan since I’ve seen so little (none?) of his other things–oh, he was in Mind Games. I liked it while it lasted.

Call Girl of Cthulhu is, well, it has attractive naked women, but halfway through and here I am.

Finished it and Ithink we’ve found the actor to play Mitt Romney. “Release the whores,” indeed!

Note: Not just a cheap political jab, but the bad guy looks a lot like Romney.

> Knights starts off great, but gets worse the more supernatural it gets. I’d totally watch a prequel that was just about the main characters LARPing.

I felt as though they couldn’t figure out whether they wanted to be a comedy or a horror movie. They fell flat in both areas.
