Oh - boo to you Rosco. Death Race and AOD?

Did you see we had DR on the TV at AutoSalon :(

David Carradine is the B-grade of D-grade. Stalone's best work in my book.

But not Army of Darkness - say it ain't so :)

So much quality, so many notable quotes - where would a generation of Duke Nukem players be without that movie? I even have the rare director's cut on VHS somewhere with the crappy 'I slept too long' ending rather than the 'yo she-bitch... let's go' bit :(

Shop smart. Shop S-Mart.

What did everyone expect from that movie? I don't understand why so many people say it was a bad movie?

It was visually stunning, acting was on par - hell, even as a stand-alone movie it was OK, but...

I felt they spoilt the whole story with this film.

The overiding premise of the Matrix is that we are humans in stasis - being stimulated by machines to believe we live in the world we do - whilst serving as a renewable power source. Some of us humans become 'aware' of this existance, and fight against the controlling machines in the 'real' world - and become 1337 in teh computer h4X0r world - as it is just a simulation, physical rules do not apply.

What a cool idea. Trinity is hot, but Lawrence sure does crap on a bit.

The second film began to stretch this a bit - and made it seem that the 'real' world was also a simulation and that Colonel Sanders was simply an overworked IT guy running a debugging loop - that no matter if the real world was another facet of the Matrix, what was real is our ability to choose a direction and course of action whether indide the Matrix or no. Kinda mushy and Scarecrow, I'm going to miss you most of all type crap, but there was a cool car chase. I like hot chicks in patent-leather catsuits, I want a Ducatti, but geeze, Lawrence - OK, we get it, now shut the hell up.

The third film - well perhaps I, personnaly, wanted closure to the story. A mass realisation by the trapped human hordes, a dawning of the Zion citizens that they too were 'simulated' - or even a human vs machines battle that left a small number of people alive to start a brave new world and tell stories of the warrior of the wasteland.. oops, wrong film.

Instead... we got Lawrence 'I simply wont shut my preachin' mouth' Fishburne prattling on the entire movie, a facelifted oracle, a rip off of the General Zod vs Superman fight, a rip off of Tron in the MCCR neon city, Neo crying - with no f*cking eyes - and then the whole Jesus matyr thing with Keanu being taken away by a giant tentacle raping robot in the end.

No closure. No cool car chase. I was disappointed.

What the hell was all that train station crap?

Ruined the original premise of the first film - by trying to be too epic and mindf*cky.

Just my 5c (is longer than a 2c post)

James the question was worst movies of all time. Not best quotes of all time, or cornest movie of all time. DR2k and AOD are absolute classic's, but it does not deter from the fact they are the worst movies of all time.

i admit they really shouldnt be in the same category as titanic, but i stand by my decision :)

the same cruel twist of fate that had my ass sit through 3 hours of one fkn ship sinking (titanic)

I took my then girlfriend (now ex....gee i wonder why ;)) to go and see Starship Troopers. Upon the end of the film she said it was the worst movie she had ever seen, and i now owed her TWO movies of her choice :D

the bitch just had to go, she didnt even like my 32.

You know the woman who played the original oracle was dead right?, what else could they do. Make her cg? As a stright up action movie it thought it was ok. There are soooo many movies that are much worse. Go rent mimic 2.

Whoever put army of darkness in their list need a slap upside the head! Ash ownz u!

I agree - and even stated that in my post - I just felt it to be a disappointing and unessecary sequel to what was a fantastic original film.

Oh - and I saw Mimic 2 :D

So. Very. Bad.

      my catch can is pretty easy to empty but it overflows due to the blowby/crank case pressure etc. max I have drained is ~600ml even with a ~2.3L capacity. So it is not just about having to drain it out its the mess it makes down the firewall and under the car and rear passenger tyre from the overflow oil being blasted by screamer + air in general. Ending up on the ground cleaning the oil up and having oil on your arms when everyone else can chill and watch the other sessions gets old fast

      Yeah - the secret learned a long time ago is that the RB likes to belch oil out the covers, and/or starve the pump because it drowns the head in oil, because the upflow of crankcase gases from piston blowby comes up through the oil drain holes in the block and prevents the oil from flowing back down. The external vents from sump are about creating an alternative path/much more XS area for gas flow to decrease the gas velocity up through the oil drains and allow the oil to get back down. So, it's not about pressure at all. It is about flows - gas up and oil down - or when it's not working, gas up and oil not going where it is supposed to after it arrives at the top, except out through the cam cover vents. And regardless of whether the catch can is vented to air or vented to the turbo inlet, it must still be vented because a sealed system would blow out the crank seals, or something equally bad.

      I just used a can that's easy to empty after every session and pour it back into the fill hole. Takes about 40 seconds when you have 40 minutes between runs :p I don't see how changing any catch can stuff will reduce pressure if the system is sealed. And if it's vented - Does it matter where it's vented with regards to overall pressure?

      Welp, too late already committed to the cam cover breathers to be welded on. I did think about adding a catch can in line with the drivers side sump breather as a phase 2 along with a drain to the sump on the original catch can but with an inline ball valve so I can have it closed if needed.    Likely a single breather would have been enough but I think I’m overcompensating to hopefully not have to empty my catch can and clean up oil over flow every session.    out of curiosity has anyone actually measured crank case pressure before and after various mods? I’m considering adding a sensor for science

      Is it a dog or synchro box? I guess either way, if it is new and crunching in one gear only, it has to come out and go back to the shop to check/measure as there is either an assembly or manufacturing issue
