My current situation, it's not all bad. In fact, a wise person keeps telling me everything happens for a reason and maybe this change will be great. I like to believe that as well as she does. When these things happen, I am all about the silver lining. And, in my travels across the Internet looking for ways to pay bills on time, I often take little side trips for blog ideas. From these small soirees, and from the compounded learning of the wise, I give you:
THE TOP 10 MOVIE SWORD FIGHTS...THAT YOU HAVE NEVER SEEN!
If you are looking for Kill Bill, Braveheart, Gladiator, the Princess Bride, or Crouching Tiger, I invite you to hit up Google and the hundreds of movie buff websites that will show you everything that everyone else will. But, if you have a little yearning for variety and something new, the next 10 minutes or so could be very enlightening. I'll keep my opinions to a couple of sentences. Promise. Enjoy!
10) ROBIN VS. THE SHERIFF
There's just something about a geriatric James Bond taking out the guy who played Quint from Jaws (Robert Shaw) that warms my heart
9) THE SOVEREIGN'S SERVANT
Foreign film makers always take the time to try and equal up to their US counterparts. Take some notes Michael Bay
8) EL CID: CHARLTON HESTON VS. THE CHAMPION OF ARAGON
You can take Andalusia from his cold...dead...hands!
7) DUEL TO THE DEATH
Like mixing your roast beef with cap'n crunch. It's ridiculous but oh so much fun.
6) PREDATORS
Some blade combat between interstellar badasses
5) GAME OF THRONES
It's very easy to lose sight of the fact, with all of the nakedness, big speeches, feelings, and skullduggery, that Game of Thrones has some pretty epic fight scenes.
4) THE HUNTED
Self...Induced...Facelift...yikes
3) EQUILIBRIUM
What is "gun-kata??"
2) DIE ANOTHER DAY
A dapper MI:6 Irishman sword fights a North Korean despot turned English socialite...the only thing that makes sense is Madonna's corset being undone.
1) KINGDOM OF HEAVEN
Rise a knight...I think I just did
Just finished reading A Game of Thrones. Too bad the Finns have to wait for next week before the show is aired in Finland.
