I’m around, and starting SNT the right way-some pumpkin beer and The Nightmare Before Christmas on Blu-Ray. I’ve got to stay a little sober for my show later though, alas and alack.
Happy SNT everyone!

I am also here, although with a much lamer night ahead of me…going to school sucks.

I am floating in and out while waiting for my 1 month old`s next feeding and trying not to fall asleep.. WHOO!  I`m a party animal

Yaahh!!  SNT!  Off work and the house alone for a Saturday night movie marathon. Anybody got any suggestions for late night viewing on the dish??

Ghosted by RailPirate @ 10/11/2008 7:58 PM EDT


Just got back from my local “Spirit” halloween superstore where Talking Pirate Heads are on sale for a mere $19.99! Needless to say I picked one up. Can’t wait to set it up for the kids on Halloween!

I finally found Boo Berry. It’s really not as good as Count Chocula, but the box art is cooler. Also picked up Hulk Hostess cupcakes.

I’m about to “adopt” my WebKinz Buffalo and spend my night chatting with one of my best girlfriends on IM, and I’ll chat with a group of friends later.

It’s never pointless.

Just watching LSU vs. Florida.
I am not a big college football guy but this should be a brew-ha-ha.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

I can’t find any Halloween cereals this year. It is starting to wory me as it is not Halloween without Count Chocula.

Mandi Awwwwww :D

Pepe Radio really?  I clicked on that link.  When does it start?

RailPirate
Someone posted this link I think it was last weekend, it’s a pretty good guide for Scary movie viewing

http://www.latenightwingman.com/blog/halloween-2008-tv-listing/

What am I doing?  Well I have the Craft on my DVR from earlier this week so I am going to FINALLY watch that to catch up lol.  I am going to try to attempt to also get some housecleaning done.  I flipped between Pretty Woman and the Fly 2 last night.  Trippy stuff.  AMC has scary movies on every Friday apparently.  Or at least for this month?  I don’t know, last night was the first time I ever noticed.  It’s kind of a tradition of mine to catch Halloween and the third one yes I like that movie on that channel every October.

Ghosted by Goob @ 10/11/2008 8:13 PM EDT


I’ll be in and out.

Time to go walk the theme park. If anyone’s in the Toronto area, check out Halloween Haunt at Canada’s Wonderland….I’m bias as I’m running it, but it really is pretty cool.

Ghosted by Nickelodeon @ 10/11/2008 8:13 PM EDT


Wow, I completely forgot it was Saturday. Time flies.

Has everyone heard of Girl Talk? He’s a laprock DJ who mashes up anything and everything you can think of. Absolutely fantastic. You can download his new album using that wonderful new trend of paying whatever you like for an album at http://www.myspace.com/girltalk.

I went to Target today and got the pack of Hot Wheels cars that Matt wrote about in his last blog entry, as well as the set of Matchbox cars I mentioned in the last comment section. I have absolutely no idea where to put them. We’re running out of room fast with my rediscovery of He-Man. There comes a time when a man must choose between having toys everywhere and having a girlfriend, so the toys are confined to a guest room at the back of the house. Someday we’ll have a bigger place and I’ll have an office of my very own.

As my better half is out of town for the weekend, tonight will be spent catching up on <i>Supernatural</i> and watching <i>[REC]/i>, the Spanish film that <i>Quarantine</i> is based upon. <i>[REC]</i> got fantastic reviews. <i>Quarantine</i> didn’t.

Oh, and I also picked up <i>De Blob</i> for the Wii today. It’s quite fun.

Happy SNT everyone!

And on another note, how’s this to make you feel old? Haley Joel Osment, the kid from The Sixth Sense is twenty years old now.

Off to movieland.

Ghosted by mysteryd8 @ 10/11/2008 8:20 PM EDT


Goob- Thx for the link, I will check it out! Good luck on the house cleaning and if you get a chance look for a movie called Dead Birds on AMC. I don’t know if anyones seen this yet, I thought I did pretty well on keepin up with the latest in horror flicks, but this gem somehow slipped past me until last weekend, def worth a look….

Ghosted by RailPirate @ 10/11/2008 8:24 PM EDT


“DeBlob” is awesome isn’t it mysterd8? Most unique platform game I’ve played since the original “Super Mario Bros.”

Ghosted by Chris D. @ 10/11/2008 8:28 PM EDT


They just opened up a closer Target to me in the past couple days and holy fuck were they over staffed. I couldn’t walk two feet without people asking me if they could help me find something. They’re Halloween themed cocktail mixes brought a tear to my eye, they did. But I just bought My Little Ponies and the Domo-kun countdown to Halloween calender and of course got challenged to a sword fight with the bf in the Halloween costume accessory aisle.

I also have Frankenberry and Boo Berry cereal which has been measured out into single servings, placed in snack-size ziplock bags and put back in the box. Otherwise I’m liable to fill up a serving bowl with crunchy little ghosts and only consider it a snack.

Ghosted by Mystie @ 10/11/2008 8:31 PM EDT


halloween is on some channel called ifc at 9

Ghosted by pdc @ 10/11/2008 8:51 PM EDT


Oh wow, everyone’s alive. :)   And some with single servings of Boo Berry. :)

Ghosted by Matt @ 10/11/2008 8:51 PM EDT


mysteryd8 An office of your own?  So you can fill it up with hotwheels cars and he man?  lol!! (now we highlight the words and then click on B I or U for it to work)

Thank you for sharing that page, that guy’s music is inspiring.  I downloaded last week a DJ software program called VirtualDJ I want to do that stuff too.  I latch onto anything that is creative.

Ghosted by Goob @ 10/11/2008 8:53 PM EDT


i’m watching feast II: sloppy seconds. has anyone seen this? a disturbing woman beating scene has sort of thrown me out of the movie so far…

Ghosted by murman @ 10/11/2008 8:56 PM EDT


It’s all Halloweeened out here.  I put orange and purple lights up outside today and am burning my special Halloween blend of candles (patchouli, pumpkin spice, creme brule’ and vanilla caramel) I am feasting on Oktoberfest Samuel Adams and fixing to watch the new Halloween and the House on Haunted Hill 2.  Last night the wife was away and I watched the Mist and Dawn of the Dead remake. 

Ghosted by sublimesting @ 10/11/2008 9:03 PM EDT


Wow, Manimal. This is going to be ugly.

Well, I’m off to a committee dinner. Could someone please shoot me with a mind bullet? I’d appreciate it.

Ghosted by Bill @ 10/11/2008 9:06 PM EDT


I home again tonight as well; not really understanding the logic of getting a flu shot if it makes you sick So mostly naps and football for me today/tonight.

I tried soooo hard to watch the Gettysburg thing last night but creppy tv+creepy old house+home alone=no sleep and highly disturbed….

But at least the weather is finally starting to look and feel autumn-like; it’s all cloudy and drizzly with a coolness in the air…awesomeness.

Ghosted by Shuanfu @ 10/11/2008 9:09 PM EDT


You know, I joined some scam-sounding Society of Leadership and Success, and they have SNTs of their own: success something something. We had our first orientation meeting and I didn’t really pay attention, but when I saw SNT big on the screen, I couldn’t help but smile.

Ghosted by Ben @ 10/11/2008 9:09 PM EDT


Success Networking Teams! That’s what it stood for. Saturday Night Thread is a lot better, though. :D

Ghosted by Ben @ 10/11/2008 9:10 PM EDT


SNT save me.  Can’t do anything tonight because I have to work tonight from 10pm till…. who the hell knows.

Having a bowl of Count Chocula to pass the time.

Ghosted by Double G @ 10/11/2008 9:12 PM EDT


Oh Bill you and your trying to socialize with the “normies”. I’ll try to mind melt random images into your head. Yooouuuu will think of a fiiirrreeee hydrant!!

Ghosted by Mystie @ 10/11/2008 9:12 PM EDT


If I’m not mistaken, the original Halloween is on IFC right now.

We just got two bottles of wine and some kind of fancy oven appetizer things that will probably come out awful, but will at least smell nice.

Ghosted by Matt @ 10/11/2008 9:14 PM EDT


i’m here. i wish i wasn’t. not because i don’t like snt, but it would be nice to be able to leave the house. i will be debbie downer tonight, because i am bored and have invalid depression. happy SNT!!!!

Ghosted by Amy @ 10/11/2008 9:19 PM EDT


Hey, all! Just doing some chores so I can buy my first batch of Halloween stuff… I’m behind. But I followed this countdown since day one! I’m in the mood… just broke :(

Ghosted by Aaron @ 10/11/2008 9:26 PM EDT


We just carved a Jack-O-Lantern and roasted some pumpkin seeds. Now I think I’ll start up a horror movie, Midnight Meat Train is on demand for free, sounds as good as anything.

Ghosted by Fox @ 10/11/2008 9:29 PM EDT


MIdnight Meat Train…are you sure that movie is what you think it is?

Ghosted by Amy @ 10/11/2008 9:32 PM EDT


I want halloween beer. I blew all my spare cash on it last weekend, though, when it was first put on the shelf in this area. Also, the new version of kirby superstars for DS. Good game, but I want beer!

@Amy: lol

Hellbound: Hellraiser II isn’t that good.

Ghosted by Admiral Backbar @ 10/11/2008 9:38 PM EDT


Watched the original Halloween last night, it is amazing how every scary movie since has been inspired in some way by it. REALLLLLYYYY hard to buy Jamie Lee Curtis as a teenager in that movie though, even at that young age.

Ghosted by drew do @ 10/11/2008 9:40 PM EDT


Is anyone excited for Sonic Unleashed?

Ghosted by Aaron @ 10/11/2008 9:41 PM EDT


Goob- It starts at 11 PM EST. Sorry for the delay. Nightmare turned into The Corpse Bride (also Blue-Ray, thanks to Amazon) and putting the wee sproutlet to sleep before too long. I’d like to see a Pretty Woman/Fly 2 mash up. Hello YouTube!

I’m all full up on some home-made apple pie we got whilst pumpkin patching today. The Samuel Adams Octoberfest is a nice compliment to it.

drew do- check out the “seasonal” section of the supermarket. That’s where my local shoppes keep the monster cereals.

Ghosted by Pepe @ 10/11/2008 9:43 PM EDT


The original Halloween isn’t only a good horror/suspense movie, it’s just plain old good movie making. The atmosphere is amazing.

Ghosted by Admiral Backbar @ 10/11/2008 9:44 PM EDT


SupraGenius-what beer did you buy?

Ghosted by Pepe @ 10/11/2008 9:44 PM EDT


Admiral Backbar: Hellbound definitely can’t be pointed to as a textbook “good” movie, but man, they don’t make horror movies like that anymore.  Growing up as a horror movie fraidy cat, I always saw trailers and assumed that the various films were so much more gory and depraved than they actually were.  Hellbound wasn’t — that’s pretty much what I thought all horror movies were like back then.

Trying to find Drop Dead Fred on DVD

Ghosted by Ella Enchanted @ 10/11/2008 9:49 PM EDT


trying to make it through work right now.

Probably going to pop in either Slaughter High or Jason Takes Manhattan when I get home, but I can’t decide.

So, SNT, should it be Slaughter High or Jason Takes Manhattan?

Ghosted by AJ @ 10/11/2008 9:53 PM EDT


JTM is a great “don’t really want to watch a movie but don’t really want to just go to sleep” movie.  Gets my vote.

Ghosted by Matt @ 10/11/2008 9:57 PM EDT


Goob

it`s true..he`s pretty great.  Just turned 1 month today AND my one year wedding anniversary is coming up on Halloween It`s been a pretty great couple of months

Ghosted by Mandi @ 10/11/2008 10:00 PM EDT


drew do: you are so right about jamie lee. i think she was born middle aged.
i saw part of a hellraiser movie once, and i was so thoroughly disturbed that i never watched the rest or any other. i always assumed they were just completely depraved. sounds like they might be kinda lame.
that’s how i felt about house of 1000 corpses and the devil’s rejects too. i was almost too afraid to watch them, but now they are my favorites.
i vote slaughter high.

Ghosted by Amy @ 10/11/2008 10:00 PM EDT


how do i keep my comments from being all jammed together in one big blob? i like spacing.

Ghosted by Amy @ 10/11/2008 10:01 PM EDT


Matt, have you ever seen the movie Mr. Freedom?

Ghosted by AJ @ 10/11/2008 10:05 PM EDT


Amy, are you using preview before you post? Because I’ve noticed it’ll blob together if you preview before posting.
