As soon as I saw the trailer and ads for "The Grey", I immediately thought "Liam Neeson is gonna kick some wolve's ass...there better be scenes of Liam strangling a wolf with his bare hands or biting his heart out!" Well, apparently I wasn't the only one to expect that and this review from the LA Weekly suggests I might be disappointed with the film.
The Grey Review
Liam Neeson fights wolves
By Brian Miller Los Angeles Weekly Thursday, Jan 26 2012
I was told there would be more wolf-punching in The Grey. If you crash Liam Neeson and six disposable buddies in the frozen Alaskan wilderness, there is the expectation — nay, the requirement — that Neeson punch as many wolves as possible. Tape pocketknives and broken glass to your fists, improvise other weapons from the plane wreckage, just do what's necessary in the situation, OK? But despite Neeson's recent string of aggrieved-daddy action flicks (Taken, Unknown, etc.), this is not to be.
Reuniting with his A-Team director, Joe Carnahan, Neeson is instead a melancholy Irish Catholic given to fits of poetry and religious doubt. He gently shepherds a dying passenger into the beyond. He provides sage advice to the motley survivors — worried by their knowledge of both Alive and Grizzly Man — as he attempts to lead them on a trek to safety. He writes to a mystery woman, glimpsed in gauzy flashbacks (who provides the film's only real jolt in making you think about Natasha Richardson).
Along the way, Neeson's pack is revealed to be frail and fearful, as The Grey's dwindling survivors somberly contemplate the odds against them and, as the film takes a mystical turn, the absence of divine providence. There's too much Jack London, and, as they systematically pick off the stragglers, too many CGI wolves go unpunched. —Brian Miller
Well I am happy that you did not give the movie away. But I happen to be an animal rights type and I do not think its necessary to blame animals in the wilderness for human mistakes. Did you see the Edge? Well, good movie. This sounds similiar. I do wish to see it but Ill wait til it hits the shelves.
Now what to do? Direct TV now has combined internet and DVR with their movies and Netflix has this Wii deal package. So many choices. So what is the best way to go? My wife saw at least four movie previews she is interested in. We certainly will not go to the theatre to see them all. Must make a decision. Netflix? Direct TV>?
PS. My money will be on the Alpha male to kick Liam Neeson's ass.

Wrote to the DVLA notifying them I've disposed of my shitty old Ford
What is the DVLA and do they pay you for scrap metal over there like they do here?
-
Very nice indeed.
-
That's just tacky, IMO. Chrissy Evert and Evonne Goolagong would never have stooped to those depths. Or Virginia Wade or BJK, for obvious reasons. Betty Stove too.
I just remembered, I used to have a hard-on for Rosie Casals. Sure, she looked like Leatherface, but I bet she could crack nuts with those thighs...
What is tacky about posing for SI? Its not Playboy or Penthouse. She is smokin hot.

January 27th 1977 is the one you were at in LA? I skimmed the post Strider but its a bit long for me. Read most of the relevant details I posted my story in the Timeline back in 2007 when I first found this site. I saw them four months almost to the day after your concert and 3000 miles to the east in Landover MD. the kid that went with me I no longer see. Have not seen him in over 30 yrs. We were robbed the night before in DC but were dropped across from the Capital Centre unharmed, just almost broke and with our Led Zeppelin tickets. Slept outdoors behind a church. Spent the day with two girls from PA. some town called Red Lion. I believe my post is the first one for the day of May 30th 1977 in Landover. In the timeline. I assume you posted yours there? I have certiainly not had time to read all the posts. But someday I play to go through them methodically. We were lucky the kid had a $20 bill stuffed in his shoe. I really did not care about the money. Had our bus ticket back, a 12 hour bus ride. I still remember the road going through the woods leading to the old Capital Centre. The footage Sam posted from that guy in Utica brought back memories. My post in the Timeline I use my real name by the way. It was truly a miracle that i got the tickets. And maybe more of one that I was somehow able to hang on to it to this day. I was already out of high school unlike you. I was almost 20. Was 19 and would turn 20 two months after I got to see them.

I was at the Stones concerts in Buffalo both in 1975 and 1980. The 1975 concert was opened by the Outlaws. Was anyone at that show? If so, I believe Billy Preston was on keyboards? Does anyone remember this?
By the way, this thread was started by me in 2007 and that is my playing the guitar in the photo. I was originally Icantquityoubabe.

Seeing Billy Preston mentioned, man did he play with alot of big bands.

It has nothing to do with her making it to the finals or playing ability, even though you could count the number of Grand Slam titles she has won on one hand.
Making noises distracts opponents and does not make anyone a better player, hard work and practice does.
If she focused on her game instead of making stupid noises she could be a great player.
All she is remembered for is a pretty runner up, she could change that but I doubt she will.
This win at all costs attitude is all bullshit and most players are selfish, spoilt brats who know nothing about working in or for a team.
She wouldn't kill me, dude!
Whereas you have already admitted defeat.
Yes, I'm serious.
She did win Wimbleton. She is on the map. And her SI swimsuit shots speak for themselves. I love her.
-
Grunting / shrieking is very unsettling for the viewer and no doubt the players.
Gamesmanship at best and cheating at worst.
It is highly contradictory when spectators are forbidden to make any noise etcetera during play so as to not distract the players?
Tennis and Golf are about as boring spectator sports as they come, better games to play then watch.
IMO.
As for Jelena Dokic, she took everything Tennis Australia gave her and when things got a little hard for her she along with her dimwit father took her racquet and went back to wherever they came from.
Then when she plummeted in the rankings she weaseled her way back in and still can't play.
What price loyalty?
Anyone that makes it to the finals can play dude. Are you serious? She would kill us all in the sack. Face it. Grunting or not. Kill us.

She looks pretty hot, yeah. But I'd have to see her feet to be absolutely sure. I'll see if I can find a pic, and post it here - ok?
EDIT: uh-oh......FREAK ALERT !!!!!!!!!

I am not even going to open the link because I can pretty much guess its insulting. she is drop dead gorgeous and I am not the only one that thinks so.

And they were used in one of the Back to the Future movies.

^ Obsessed much?
And how many times you gonna post that damn pic? Can't even see her feet, ferchrissakes. But I bet they're huge. Eww.
If you do not think she is hot then you must be gay. And stirring the shit kettle as usual.

Went to see "Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close" with Hanks and Bullock and the young actor that is the lead in this vivid reminder of how much 911 took away from so many lives.

Maria Sharapova plays for the title very soon. GO MARIA!!!!!

Haven't seen it yet, but it looks like the kind of fun guilty pleasure Liam Neeson's "Taken" and "Unknown" were. Neeson's role in "Batman Begins" seems to have given his career a second-wind as a tough, action guy.
It's got an 80% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, which is pretty good. A couple reviewers I tend to like have given it good reviews.
It's Liam Neeson and a bunch of guys stranded in the frozen wilderness being hunted by wolves. Oh, and apparently discussing metaphysics.
Last thing you might want to know...it's "The GREY", not Gray...just to avoid confusion.
I figured I spelled it wrong. I just guessed. But it sounds exactly like "The Edge". I loved that movie with Anthony Hopkins and Alec Baldwin. Except it was Bart the Bear chasing them through the Alaskan wilderness. Bart was actually in a few films. He sadly passed away a couple years ago I believe but lived a good long life in captivity. I believe almost 30.

Go Maria!!!
-
I think the Gray opens tomorrow? Please post if its good if anyone sees it. Without revealing too much of course.

This place is getting better by the minute.

Ah, so I have mentioned it! (I can never remember who I've told. Most times I try to keep it a secret, but sometimes it just slips out.)
Actually no, I don't like them big or smelly. Big or smelly is just totally gross. But I do like wrinkled soles - and dirty soles, without being smelly. A light coating of floor-dust is just fine by me. But no smells, thanks.
-
Fetishes are cool. I have one myself, did I mention that yet?
Not sure from that pic what Jahf's is, though - sneakers, or thermal leggings...?
You have a foot fetish. you like em dirty, smelly, big and wrinkled.
-
You do know girls that post these kind of pictures are generally about 14-16 years old
Hey, the man has a fetish. Let him be.

The Mackinaw Bridge joins the Upper and Lower Peninsulas of Michigan.
Thanks

The Mackinac Bridge last week. If you think that's foreboding, it ain't much better once you get a couple miles out. I've actually been over when the weather was worse, but I'm not saying I liked it.
Where is this Bonger? Is it Lake Michigan>? I only guess because I know you live near Detroit?

Assuming this is accurate info, I sure wish I could get a copy somehow of the May 26th show in Landover. I believe this would have to be one night before Jimmy got so trashed he was carried off? I saw them on the 30th 4 nights after this one. And it was two nights to my knowledge after he was carried off? I would like to know how good this show was?
