It's alright, you know. Now a lot of reviewers gave it the stick because all the US Navy SEAL Team guys were played by REAL Navy SEALs, so some of the acting was a little, you know, dodgy, but sheet, it looked good, and their missions were fucking badass cool.
Oh, except for, ironically, the only REAL actress in the show was that rubber Mexican chica from Rush Hour 2

| Oh, and 10 bucks to anyone who can explain the physics behind whatever the fuck her shmeebs are doing there |
You know, you look at her, and it's like, damn, you'd be pretty hot if you weren't, you know, made out of urethane foam like fuckin Buster.

I'm a little surprised at how crappy everyone seems to think it was.
I mean, fuck me, I watched fucking GI JOE for the love of fuck
ANY fucking ways, at one point they're in Costa Rica or somewhere tropical, and their team leader comes in and says
"Boy it's hot. It's Africa hot. Tarzan couldn't stand it this hot"
Which is, of course a direct (and more than a little witty) quote from Matthew Broderick in Biloxi Blues.
And I'll bet I'm the only guy in this hemisphere who got that.
Or like yesterday, when I happened to mention to The Irish that Sugai, the Obayun
in Ridley's near-forgotten masterpiece Black Rain
is played by none other than Wakayama Tomisaburo, the star of all 6 of the excellent mid-70s Lone Wolf & Cub movies.
Which I totally rate, as if you had to ask.
And again, there are probably only a mittful of non-Nipponesers who would know that (although I'll bet our own Funk probably did).
Anyways, the point here isn't for you all to start getting the fuckin vapours over what a clever wee lad I am.
No sir, actually quite the contrary.
My point here, I think, is more along the lines of, like "So fucking what?"

| Why is it that nobody (other than fucking Shpeelberg, one assumes) ever remembers what an operatically magnificent set of bazoombas Kate Capshaw had? Because she was always so busy SUCKING every time she appeared onscreen, that's why. |
