I've never seen any of the Darkman sequels.

I have never seen Darkman either.

Does it qualify as an annoyance?

My annoyance with the Darkman movie was the ad's tagline was "There's a ray of light that shines on every human being, except one. DARKMAN!" I thought, "that sounds pretty cool!" But of course it had absolutely nothing to do with the movie. I'm not even really sure why he's called Darkman. I guess because he makes his masks in the dark? I do like how he's magically able to make himself much shorter when he's impersonating a much shorter person.

I need to watch this.

It's a comic book movie. It's not based on a comic book, but it's definitely a comic book movie.

Didn't love it when it came out.  Maybe I need to see it again.

That'll be... JUST FINE!

 Dammit.  It's not available On Demand!  Bugger.

Rent it along with Fast 5.

 Rental??

He just means you should rent the movie. Don't go out and rent all the cars in it.

 I think my local Blockbuster went bankrupt.

I blame you. Its salvation was always in your hands.

 And I you, when your local AMC goes out of business.

My local AMC's salvation is also in your hands.

 I tried.  I really did.

I spent money a couple weeks ago on a Man of Steel ticket. I'm trying to support the industry. I won't actually get to *use* the ticket, but at least I'm supporting the industry.

Unfortunately, the ticket is not for an AMC showing.

 Buy a second ticket.

I don't have enough money in the bank. Also, I might not have time to see it until 2o June or later.

Current Annoyance:

Ok, so my wife has never seen Rocky, mostly because she was never interested in it, thinking that it's a total guy movie. I guess it is kind of a guy movie, but not as much as its sequels are. I finally convinced her that it's worth watching and we put it at the end of our Netflix queue. This was a long time ago.

Finally, there is only one movie that's standing in the way of watching Rocky - The Jacket, a 2005 movie about a Gulf War veteran starring Adrien Brody. We've had the DVD for three weeks now and still haven't watched it. I'm beginning to think that she's actively avoiding watching this movie because she doesn't want Netflix to send us Rocky.

 Mrs Dalty has never seen Rocky.  Like you, I am trying to show her the error of her ways.  All Rocky films, no matter how cheesy and 80s they get in the middle, have enough in them to keep ladies interested until the punching starts.

Mal, you should hide Rocky at the bottom of the queue and replace it at the top with some enticing chick flick. After The Jacket gets dropped in the mail, zip Rocky to the top of the queue, and it'll show up at your home a couple of days later as if by magic!

And don't forget to permanently delete the chick flick from your queue.

Is there someone other than Stallone who's topless? Because I find Sly about as appealing as a pile of bricks ... to which his acting has been compared.
