Earlier today I caught part of a movie called The Egyptian. It was ok, but I don't feel compelled to see the entire flick.

But one quote I really wanted to have a copy of, and I can't find it on the net!

If anyone could find this or link to where I can see the relevant part (even if the best is to see the entire movie), like on YT, on I would great appreciate it!

It's the part where Sinuhe has returned to Egypt, been arrested & then pardoned by the hippie Pharaoh (that's how I think of him, all love, light, and peace, as if it's stronger than than even iron weapons), and as Sinuhe is talking to like the leader of the Egypt's armed forces and the leader says something about Hittites taking Egypt's throne from Pharaoh, Sinuhe replies about how he's been all over the world and no matter who ruled or what government was in place, there was brutality & injustice, so why did it matter who held the throne?

What was the exact quote here?

Right after, the military leader contrasted (& warned) Pharaoh to him, saying the former believed in too much and him in too little.

"I believe in nothing," said Sinuhe.

Anyway, can anyone help? :confused:

Helro.

I met Mr. Wilson at the Stoker weekend 2009. I had to admit to him that I first heard of Repairman Jack a few months before and didn't know Jack has been around since 1985.

He told me the first RJ book is The Tomb, so I bought a copy from a vendor at the Stokers. It's a British edition, signed by somebody, but seemingly not by Mr. Wilson. Perhaps the cover artist, but I can't find his name in the book.

I found out on this site that I am reading the not-so-preferred version with all the 1980's references. What the heck, I'm old enough to remember when Times Square was Times Square.

I'll be curious if the upcoming movie carries through with Jack not having a social security number or other legal existence. It's very important for the character, but large corporations that make movies may not want to offer a role model who goes against the current trend towards total tracking of everyone all the time.

Well, I have to go finish the book.

Caught the ending of Jimmy Kimmel last night, July 3, and loved the band (a female singer, female guitarist, male keyboardist, and don't remember the drummer). Kinna sounded like Berlin, but more ethereal. Help. Who was that band?

P.S. As always, thanks ahead of time.

Wh.. what?

There was even a four studio bidding war for the rights.

Why hasn't Repairman Jack been made into a movie yet?

I got the Trade hardcover of Reprisal that was published by Dark Harvest in 1991 and there is a weird typo on page 322. Its when Lisl is headed to Rafe's apartment to confront him and mid sentence it switches to a paragraph talking about Jack and how much Glaeken liked him. it was very strange. I dont really feel like I missed anything, but I was wondering if anyone else had seen this and what book that paragraph about Jack was from.

Funny title to this little Japanese horror flick, but after a good dose of gore, the movie goes porno. Teenage lesbians! They just escape from some zombies, strip and get it on. Then they're dressed and fighting zombies again. Then a flashback to some hetero sex. Now I like a nice sex scene as much as the next guy, but not in my zombie movies. And with a title like Attack Swim Team vs. The Undead, you'd expect a few laughs. Nope. They played the movie straight, so to speak. Very disappointed as Japanese horror is usually very creative. I give it a thumbs down, but if I were Hustler magazine I'd give it a ... uh, nevermind. Wink

Some early online reviews of Ground Zero. Some very minor spoilers in the Bookgasm review (nothing that wasn't revealed in the first 25 pages or that people like Webby haven't already guessed).

TMZ is reporting Michael Jackson has died of a heart attack

According to BBC unconfirmed, but all over UK news


I'm not a fan, but clearly sad for his family, friends and fans

I heard Farrah Fawcett passed away during the night after a brave battle with cancer.

One of Charlie's Angels is gone. I liked her in Charlie's Angels.

Sad
