I'll join the chorus-- I didn't think The Cell was all that bad. I felt no need to watch it a second time, but it didn't suck nearly so much as this post suggests.
@Hlaode: Well, the guy who directed this directed a few episodes of 24... so... I say we head to the fox studios. He may not be employed there anymore, but it is a good start.
@crashedpc: I too hate stupid punctuation. The final sentence is also screwy--it should have a dash in front of "go," not a comma, and there doesn't need to be a comma before the "and."
Your second sentence, however, crashedpc, is a picture-perfect use of the semicolon and grammatically correct.
@bookfoldbrewcineaste: I keep a copy of Strunk and White in my cube right next to the calculator and thermistors. Never will I be labeled as an engineer who doesn't have at least some rudimentary grasp of grammar!

But I'm out of butter, and my X-acto blades are dull.
Can I just pretend I didn't see this?

Swear off DVDs for the next few months?

The Cell wasn't a great MOVIE - but visually, it was stunning :: also, Vincent D'Onofrio can do no wrong imo.
& The Fall is CRIMINALLY underrated. Great story, great visuals - and that little girl was amazing.
