So yeah, I guess I'm gonna get the ball rolling for next week's questions, because I have a pressing question of my own. 

What is your favorite twist ending from a horror film? I would have to say that mine is from...

 

As to my least favorite...

Hey guys! At what point do you start to consider someone to be "box-office poison"? Your conversation a while back about Anna Faris's less than great movie career has me wondering if it's time to place her in "B.O.P" territory, of if there are other things to consider that would prevent that from being the case. Also, Alex mentioned that he would like to hear someone like Mastodon do a soundtrack, and I wanted to know if he was aware that they did the score for Jonah Hex? (which also featured a cameo from Brent Hinds)

I just saw the first minute of Children of Men Bestie, was intrigued, and navigated away from the video because I didn't want to spoil too much of the movie before I saw it. My question is do you think Besties are for people who haven't seen the film, or those who have? Do you think cutting them short once you decided on watching the film is question is the right course of action, or would you recommend watching the full Bestie right off the bat?

Hey crew, is the layout of netflix's site an inhibitor to finding the good content on the site? I believe it is but I would like to know your opinion.

If you guys were forced to dress up for Halloween this year, who would you go as?

Also, what is your favorite kind of candy?

What do you guys do when you're recovering from a movie that you didn't like at all? (for example the 0-star movies that heavily damaged you.)

What's your collective opinion on Guy Ritchie? Snatch is one of my favorite movies for no explainable reason, but I find his Sherlock Holmes adaptation to be utterly forgettable.

Dear Rorie and Alex,

I was watching The Crow for the first time and was taken aback by how outrageously 90s it was- the Nine Inch Nails-esque soundtrack, the skater punk teenage girl, the grunge rock concert in a warehouse, etc. Is there any movie you know which blatantly represents the time in which it was released that distracts from the actual film?

Danke schoen!

Inducting 'Children of Men' into the Besties got me thinking:

What is your favorite, final scene in a movie?

I think a lot of films seem to struggle with their final shot, which make the great ones tend to stand out all the more. My favorites of recent memory are Michael Clayton, The Lives of Others, John Carpenter's The Thing, and Inception.

I recently really got into John Hughes movies this past year. I watched all of them and loved some and disliked others. But what I did like I really really loved (Breakfast Club, Ferris Bueller, Uncle Buck). I was wondering which John Hughes written but not directed movies were worth watching?

Thanks Screened Dudes!

Hey fells, are there any genres that were once popular that you'd like to see more directors tackle? I'm thinking westerns, noir, screwball comedy, etc... (funny that the Cohen brothers have done all three). More specifically, are there any directors in particular that you'd like to see take on a genre otherwise unfamiliar to them?

Thanks duders

Have either of you guys had the chance to check out the Japanese film "Battle Royale?" If so, what are your thoughts on it, as well as the prospect of it getting a Hollywood retelling? A decade later and parts of the movie still give me chills, and I personally think any Hollywood remake would be pointless as the vast majority of it would be changed, notably the ages of the main characters.

After Alex's article on Harmonix and Matt's mention of Feist on Rorie Rambling, it got me thinking about music-based movies. Stuff like Almost Famous, Walk the Line, Amadeus, or even School of Rock. Any favorites and/or recommendations?

I never get upset with what gets chosen to be on the list of What to Watch, but I will say that the new season of Psych started 3 weeks ago and has not been on the What to Watch's, and Psych is one of there American shows I like to watch, and is at least on par with the NBC's comedy shows, in my opinion of course. To the point, how are things chosen for What to Watch?

BTW, episode 2 of the current season of Psych was a parody of the movie Hangover, and it was pretty great.
