Pictures On A MF-ing Blog

I have no idea of whether these are remotely worthy of conversation, but...

Package 2


This image was left out of the package, presumably for focus issues, though I like the way it looks. In any case, this is the moment when Sam Jackson brought Carl Lee Hailey to the party...

At least Sam is enjoying it all. It's nice to see an actor so enthused for a genre film of this nature.

I just think it's funny that you have the word "package" underneath a picture that looks like you're trying to shoot up that guy's shorts.

Jeff Wells wrote this weekend that an audience member at the Snakes on a Plane event asked Jackson if the snakes really deserved to die. Jackson's enthusiastic response, of course, was "Yes, they deserve to die, and I hope they burn in hell!"

I've been smiling at that since I read it.

The shot of him with his fist in the air... that was the moment he did that, Eric...

^^^Where is that photo? I don't see it.

I did not go to Snakes on a Plane, but I did see the Alfonso Cuaron presentation on Children of Men, Frank Miller and the gang from The 300, and the Rodriguez and Tarantino show. Oh, and Battlestar Galactia. And I will post something when I am not so tired that thinking about writing more than a paragraph makes me need a nap.

I had heard all the stories about CCI and never quite believed them... I do now...

Lynn, going back to sleep

Ah... The Graphics Goddess left it out... apparently, she was focus fearful... adding it above...

Dude, that wasn't Jules Winfield that said that-- it was Carl Lee Hailey from A Time to Kill!

But I guess they all look alike to you... when you're THE MAN.

Clealry, I am not geek enough... corrected it above... thanks...

I thought it was Pulp Fiction too. I didn't think A Time To Kill had given the world anything of note, aside from the gorgeous Mr. McConaughey, but clearly I was wrong.

Yeah, i recognised it as from A Time to Kill - the only thing I thought of was how many people there would have known it was from that?!

It was the centerpiece of the trailer, if memory serves.

Josh is right, it was all over the advertising.

The line has also made a bit of a comeback since it was used in a parody on Chappelle's Show.
