A hoot.

I said in my previous post that I was hanging out with my brother, and we watched a movie. Said movie was named 'The Ice Pirates'. If you ever get the chance, go to a pawn shop or back alley video store and buy/rent - I recommend buying - The Ice Pirates. It's about the world where it's only prized commodity is Ice and the bad guys (The Templars) have total control over it. Bands of Ice Pirates, led by Robert Ulrich(80s actor...odd thing about this guy, I remember seeing him, but it was never anything I could rememeber), rise up to do what they do naturally; steal and pillage circa the 23rd century by way of 1984. Hilariousness and cheese abound.

It also has Ron Perlman (plays Hellboy, here in one of his first movie roles, whose character is strong, machismo Pirate by day, effeminate, seasoned cook by night), a really awkward and almost non-sequitur love scene (two words, Passion. Storm. Nuff said.), and Bruce Vilanch (this guy):


It was a hoot indeed.
