In all seriousness, that is pretty epic. But, has anyone see Law Abiding Citizen? I watched it not too long ago from when I rented it from Redbox. I thought it was really good, and the ending I kind of saw coming, but it was still epic in all ways.
Though, not a big fan of Jamie Foxx. Gerard Butler, on the other hand, makes one good screaming Spartan, and a good manipulative actor able to play the role of a mentally disturbed father trying to get revenge. Good movie overall.

To be fair, Gerard Butler is just a great actor. 300, rocknrolla, law abiding citizen. He's just good. He's quickly becoming one of my favourites. Even in chick flicks he has been good.

Agreed. He's a really good actor, he's the only reason I watched this movie.

Law Abiding Citizen had the wrong ending, the bad guys won. Gerard Butler was clearly the good guy, fighting the system and all!
Here's some advice. Don't see One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest.
But I disagree =P, he was the bad guy and it had the right ending. He fought the system, made his point ie. you can't bargain with bad guys, its not justice. He played the game well but knew at some point he was going to lose. But that was what he wanted. The central point of his plan was always that he was going to die - he didnt necessarily know when, but it was going to happen. Without that his plan would have had a fatal flaw. The good guys finally got the point and killed him.
