I learned that making ten minutes of rock can take weeks.
When done well, yes I could see that. I have no idea what is taking these idiots so long, though.

I learned that sometimes when they say a movie is "good to watch stoned", they mean you'll be hoping an angry mob of Philistines stones you to death so you don't have to WATCH THAT DAMN VAN DRIVE AROUND ANY LONGER!!!

I learned that the only reason they did it was to pad the run time by another ten minutes.
I survived the San Diego Comic Con 2010 Hall H stabbing.

I learn that Satan should have bow down to Jon Mikl Thor Nipples. Even if they are a little flabby now a days.

TriffRax

I learned that when a character is named Stig, Top Gear references are nowhere to be found.

Johnny Unusual

I learned that angel god beings like to play coy, slapstick games with demons before they battle them for the fate of humanity.

Fuzzy Necromancer

I learned that "oh those people where just shadows I created for your amusement, characters from a horror movie" works as a time-saver to retroactively justify all your bad acting, stupid decisions, and unlikeable stock characters. It has almost as much audience-insulting quality as "it was all a dream", and people will be so distracted by John Mikl Thor's nipples and chainmail underwear that you don't need to worry that it fails to hold up to scrutiny in retrospect.

I learned that somebody spent time and effort to make a demonic version of a chin puppet.

I really don't get the logic of it all being staged. I mean... What? For who's benefit? To what end?  I mean.... What?!

Turns out, God likes to troll Satan.


Pastor of Muppets

I learned what it might be like if the guys riffed softcore pornography.

Didn't learn much else.  It's kind of a bland movie.  At least it's in color.
I'm not particularly religious, and I don't really like Muppets, but I do love word play.

Really?  Bland is not the way I'd descibe this movie.  Certainly not in the last act where our rocker hero reveals himself to be a muscle man angel wrestling with star fish and battling a barely articulate (in the action figure sense of the word) satan.  I mean, it is BAD, but I wouldn't call it bland.

It just took that kind of un-memorable formula that all slasher movies take.


  • Start out with a certain number of characters.
  • Kill the characters off one by one.
  • When there is only one or two left, the movie is almost over.

I've never seen a slasher movie that could break out of this pattern, which is why the whole genre bores me so much.

Iron Curtain

I learned that Jokes mocking Tumblr could be funny even to SJWs like me.
