So, did we learn anything from this movie?

[CJones]

I learned the makers of this movie don't know jack about Greek mythology. Lamia was a daughter of Zeus who ate children. Somehow that translates into male goat demon who takes people to hell (a concept that didn't even exist in Greek mythology).

Also, I learned Allison Lohman bears a striking resemblnace to my sister. Especially in the chipmunk cheeks department... Don't tell her I said that

And finally... AIM FOR THE GOAT YOU DUMBASS!

[ShadowDog]

It wasn't actually a goat demon was it?  It only went into the goat because that's the animal they brought in?  Or did I miss some "subtlety" because I only watched this POS riffed?

Anyway, I learned that Stu would have never survived in General Patton's army.

And I learned that it was very foolish to attempt to buy this riff the night of the first live show.  All those people getting online to get their free digital goodies jacked up the servers so badly that, though my purchase went through, I wasn't allowed to access this riff file until today.

And finally... AIM FOR THE GOAT YOU DUMBASS!

Yeah, that was the stupidest part of a very stupid movie.  Dude, you're standing six inches away from a goat who's leashed down ... and you miss?  What the hell was that?!?

[Thrifty]

I learned that because of the Evil Dead movies, Sam Raimi has open license to make shitty horror movies and be praised for it.

LMFAO!

Next time use chain link and you won't have this problem..

I also learned that old people ooze goo and fluids like a fountain that come in all sort of tinges of yellow green

[ShadowDog]

I just learned that Thrifty has the ability to close threads.  Whoa.

[Rattrap007]

actually if you start a thread you can lock it..

[ShadowDog]

For real?  Holy crap!  That's the first I've ever heard of that shit and I've been using message boards for a solid ten years now.  So far back that they didn't move when you replied to them.  LMFAO  Anyway, wow, that's news to me, no sarcasm.

It's not too odd that you'd be surprised. I mean, what wuss locks their own thread?

[dvorak]

The reasoning for locking the thread seemed clear to me.

It was meant to be a discussion of the merits/demerits of the movie, yet
the main argument used by the movie's supporters was 'You just don't get it.'

Clearly nothing was to be gained from further discussion, except pointless fighting.

Since this site is devoid of moderators, I think it's a perfectly reasonable thing to
lock a thread you've created when you realize it's accomplishing nothing or is starting
to do more harm than good.

I learned that the bureaucracy of eternal damnnation worse than the Texas legal system. Does Hell have an appellate court?

Also, Hell's fire is so hot that your face starts to burn off seconds before you're actually dragged down. So it's possible that you'll burn eternally, but all of your pain receptors will be nullified almost immediately, so it should cancel out.

Oh, and all horror movie protagonists must be hot women. Otherwise the White Knight impulses of the male members of the audience won't kick in and root for an otherwise boring leading lady.

Jaw-sucking is the preferred martial art for old hags.

Funerals will inevitably have a Mr. Bean moment where someone knocks the corpse off the table.

The Roma have a strict No Fatties policy.

Hellmouths will conveniently open any time the damned person happens to be horizontal on the ground or a ground-like surface.

And of course, I learned an age-old moral maxim: never piss off Gypsies.

The gypsy gave her a really bad Community Chest card: Go directly to Hell. Do not pass God, do not collect $200.

I just learned today that super hawt and tasty Ellen Page was originally supposed to play the lead in this movie but had to drop out at the last minute because of a scheduling conflict. (though part of me wonders if she saw the final draft of the script and hurriedly created a conflict.  LMFAO)

This movie would have been bearable with Ellen Page as the lead.

Considering that the "scheduling conflict" was that she said she had to re-grout her bathroom...
