I have wanted to see this movie for a while. When Common Tater suggested it a few weeks ago I was sold . My research on IMDB made me a bit concerned, as the “More Like This” section at the bottom exceeded the Meatloaf ratio. It had Kung Fury (great), Rubber (meh), Llamageddon (DNF), and Jesus Christ, Vampire Killer, the movie that almost killed GlibFlicks after the first post in 2021.
Just so you know what we are getting into, here is a movie summary, stolen shamelessly from IMDB:
After losing his parents, a priest travels to China, where he inherits a mysterious ability that allows him to turn into a dinosaur. At first horrified by this new power, a hooker convinces him to use it to fight crime. And ninjas.
This was written and directed by Brendan Steere. Control over both writing and directing generally means a good film, so I have many optimisms. This is the most recent film he has made and from looking at it, his one full-length movie. The trivia for this movie is great. I pulled out a couple of gems (again, courtesy IMDB):
- VelociPastor was made on a budget of $35-45K. RJ – I don’t think there were any accountants around keeping careful track of the funds to compare against future box office.
- According to the DVD commentary by the writer/director, the Velociraptor costume used in the film had been in his basement for years. It had been made for a high school play, but the school’s principal refused to let it be used because he believed it made the play too violent.
I will be watching this with all of you for the first time tonight! I have only seen pieces of this before. We’re going in blind! All of us except our legendary potato.
So watch! Or don’t! Everything is voluntary! If you don’t like it, you can always discuss gardening tips or what canned food your pets prefer. Next week, I give you a choice:
- Something from the Sixties
- Something from the Eighties
- A documentary about how Gilligan’s Island was a Communist plot

Heh. I will have to start mailing you disks like Netflix in Zoolander 2.
I wanted to see it and it wasn’t online anywhere so I bought the disk. It has a commentary track and a bunch of extras.
There’s a Zoolander 2 ?
I wasnt aware of that.
Yes. The media buried it because it had a scene where they made fun of trannies. The movie was hilarious.
“Have you got a hot dog or a bun?”
I didn’t know that either.
And then I read this.
And now I will definitely seek out the movie. Have we really been dealing with this tranny retardation for a decade?
Yes.
I don’t think it’s specific to trans. Certain people have been objecting to making fun of minorities for
decades.
Is that all?
The big increase in MTF in the U.S. started around 2006. It wasn’t political.
Non-binary became a thing around 2014. All these people on Tumblr started making up genders and pronouns.
After Obergefell v. Hodges in 2015, Big Gay moved on to pushing trans stuff.
So the political retardation has been going on for barely nine years.
Nowhere near a decade!
That’s when it started, it didn’t get going until after Trump got elected in 2016 — it got folded into the whole “resist” movement, and Big Tech cranked up the censorship.
I liked Rubber. Also, Roxane Mesquida.
I could not get into it. I know that has many connotations but I could not get into Rubber.
OMG, I just got a “Who Are You Voting For” text. Fuck off, spammers!
I also just sent you an email. Not spam.

@Nick
Are you coming to HH?
Yeah, my girlfriend and I will be there.
Nick will be sitting in Jimbo’s seat at the head of the table. It would have been a tie with Kinnath but Kinnath gave up his claim ’cause he’s a nice guy. OTOH don’t expect
any mead this year. Nick will wear the longevity hat. Jimbo is trying to wiggle his way in by sending a surrogate kid but he broke the chain.

So what your are saying is that next year when I get back, I need to Kerrigan PO’d Nick so I get get clear title to Grand Old Man of the Honey Harvest?
Nick better treat my stable of 80+ Iron Range Babes right!
Ew gross.
I got my first text spam a few weeks ago – “UPS cannot deliver your package because ____” (insert various reasons in each subsequent spam).
Send them a dick pic back.
I love you guys. I hope we are all housed in the same work camp.
So even though I am technically a contractor now, I am still on a lot of internal lists.
Today I got an email inviting me to take a survey on my Carbon Footprint. Our German Overlords in Hamburg really want us to participate.
After determining that it really is anonymous, I filled it out. I drive an internal combustion car over 100Km every day (one way). The next page asked for free form comments and I made sure to mention that ICE cars have an overall lower carbon footprint than EV’s.
You disappoint me – You should have told them that CO2 is not a pollutant, but plant food, and they need to stop starving the plants.
BREAKING: The DNC surprise guest is STEVE SMITH. The Republic is saved.
AND BY SAVED MEAN, YOU KNOW!
STEVE SMITH NOT RAPE MARXISTS. THEY KEEP CALLING AFTERWARDS.
What year is it? 1995? Stop trying to use the fucking speakerphone and use a headset.
Wtf? How did this end up here?
RJ: Did you see Zombie Ass: Toilet of the Dead? I skimmed and it looks pretty fun.
I posted that on 02/01/2024. You’ve been gone a long time. And you were missed.
https://www.glibertarians.com/2024/02/toilet-of-the-dead/
Dang. And awww!
As a big fan of NJH, it’s pretty awful.
Big Tits Zombie, Vampire Girl vs. Frankenstein Girl, Rape Zombie Lust of the Dead, Dead Sushi, etc. are all way better.
You mentioned that in the post comments. You also mentioned that you had taken a huge shit as the first comment. It was an epic comment section.
Excellent, remind to cook up a pot of habichuelas guisadas before the next JNH post.
Are any of those on Tubi?
Sorry RJ, I’m watching Kamala’s Dance Party, not just because I hate myself, but I need a plot for next weeks cartoon.
Thoughts and prayers, brother.
Godspeed
*Salutes
You are doing it for the greater good.
Well, I hope at least drugs are involved.
I watched about 10 seconds of Pelosi slurring some rambling nonsense.
I’m sure you’ve got a goldmine there.
Hillary, Pelosi, Kamala, are all these broads a bunch of drunks?
I like “Grandma Box Wine” as Pelosi’s nickname.
My most recent attempt at BBQ sauce tastes closer to what I’m aiming for, after simmering but before roasting.
Roasting pork dosed in it now. Will see how it turns out.
Interesting. That’s a lot of ingredients. You may be able to reduce them over time and achieve similar or better results.
Yes, seems a bit busy.
I’ve only made a few batches so far.
I can play around with the spices and see what results I get.
I haaaate liquid smoke. YMMV of course, but I’d ditch that and the regular paprika and go with all smoked paprika.
All of these seasonings are “Your Milage May Vary” sorts of ingredients. In my research no two recipes agreed on what should be there.
Oh ya you are from Texas…well other folks use more than just salt and pepper.
no objections
but I don’t like spirits in recipes: they aren’t rich enough to season any mass…just drink ’em
maybe in pecan pie, but nothing larger
this was supper
I have bottles of Evan Williams that I don’t like drinking, so if I can still use them…
Mmm I like all of that except the sea-bug sauce.
What?
Evan does not approve of Evan Williams. He is a very bad, bad man.
Worcestershire is anchovies. I wouldn’t call fish “bugs”. Although I’m no expert on British English.
Yeah, I tried that. Not a fan either. Bulleit rules the cheap bourbon roost.
Cognac is useful in a variety of recipes. Couldn’t do Gaelic steak without whiskey.
UnCivilServant:
Crawfish
Also not a EW fan, of any of their labels. Old Forester, Early Times BIB, JTS Brown BIB are my cheapos.
Those would be mud bugs. They’re crawdads around here.
Evan Williams isn’t very good, but for a couple bucks more, Evan Williams Bottled in Bond is very solid.
Rittenhouse Rye, Larceny Bourbon, Knob Creek Rye are lower end that are typically in the cabinet.
Rittenhouse and Dickel are my favorite cheap rye/bourbons.
I will ask later when we are both on at the same time.
The sauce worked.
Of course, I can play around with the seasonings in future tries.
It’s heavy on smoke flavor. Suggestion to condense:
4 Bell Peppers – roasted, cored, skinned, and pureed.
1 Cup apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons onion powder
1 tablespoon garlic powder
2 tablespoons kosher salt
2 tablespoon smoked paprika
2 teaspoons ground black pepper
2+ tablespoons Monkfruit sweetener
1/4 Cup Worcestershire sauce
Smoke the seasoning on the grill or in a glass with mesquite (like a smoked drink).
Texas style would use brown sugar instead of sweetener, and add dried cayenne powder.
I know you are probably using the sweetener for a reason – if you can try Turbinado sugar. Very flavorful.
The reason for the sweetener is because I’m trying to keep keto. So I had to swap the brown sugar with something. The explicit brown sugar replacement was sold out when I was shopping.
Just askin questions, by whycome no tomato?
He went over this!
Are you throwing nightshade at him?
Is he into black chicks?
I’m going to watch this later. I was out for dinner a bit late, and I have some stuff to wrap up for work.
thanks RJ!
Thanks for checking in! Now go have a drinking game with the Democratic convention.
Oh god the queen has arrived.
They follow their segment on ‘We’re going to take your guns’ with a segment on ‘We need a strong military’, will the next segment be about how we need breathing room?
Lebensraum. That’s how “we need breathing room” is pronounced.
Gun grabbing as a means to end “gun violence” in the middle of Chicago. Huh.
Almost as good as having the Central Park 5 for false rape allegations preceded by Al Sharpton.
Give up your guns! We will protect you! Nothing could go wrong!

Some Pol from Arizona “John McCain was a Hero”; I thought he was LITERALLY HITLER?
McCain, Romney, etc. are only literally Hitler when they are running against a Democrat. Otherwise, they are statist uniparty heroes.
This is my approach to Japanese. I’ll just plug in stuff where it makes sense.
For example, “daijobu” means “no problem”. “Dai” usually means a +1 modifier. “Daisuki” = “love”, “suki” = “like”.
So my thinking is “jobu” means “a bit of a problem”. Everyone around me has no idea what I’m talking about. When I explain my thinking, gales of laughter ensue.
I’m for the American Empire now, simply to make these people learn to speak English.
Eva Longoria, ‘we have a saying in spanish, si se puede, yes we can, but now it’s SHE se puede because yes she can!’
I’m no linguist, but I’m not sure that’s how language works.
Si como puto?
Thot not thought.
ISTR Tom Woods asserting about 7 years ago that McCain’s POW experience was highly embellished at best.
*checking chart* Nope there is an exception if any person, who has been possibly commented upon by Trump, said person is now acceptable and shall be a hero.
Its right there in the bylaws.
I heard some of King Walz on NPR today. Has he always sounded like a South Park character when he pontificates?

Biden must have had to get to bed, she thanked him and they didn’t show him
He’s on another vacation. Somewhere in California this time.
He went to go live on a nice farm upstate?
Biden didn’t show? If so… wow. Uh..huh. Well. Hrm.
Any mention of Harris to upsell Trump: “How can anyone trust someone who lied to America –the world!– about who was really acting as the President of the United States?!” Poke along the lines of “Who the hell WAS the acting president, Mrs. Harris?! I ‘spose it must’ve been you. Hrm. How long were you in charge of The Executive? Just how much of our economic turmoil is on your shoulders?”
I am not terribly optimistic she won’t somehow win. Life is rather curious.
Not to mention, “who the hell voted for you?”
Fuck. Yes. “How’s that ‘DEMOCRACY’ ya claim to represent! All you and no votes?!”
*shoulder, face cocked* bitch pleaaaase… <—-should be the slam on her. This boy dreams of many things. (I like sour gummy bears. *kicks pebble*)
I gotta say, I am very disappointed in the Chicago protestors. They just don’t make anarcho-Marxist agitators like they used to. Sad!
I really thought we were up for another Summer of Love. Maybe they’re focusing on college campuses again? I’m hearing some indications that the fall semester is just going to be more of the same as last semester.
Yeah, I suppose most of the would be rioters are busy back-to-school shopping for tents, bullhorns, and keffiyehs.
The left wing “protestors” have been completely outed as brownshirts of one party or the deep state, and their summer of love antics were completely condoned by those actually holding power.
They got the memo…get in line.
I called it a couple weeks ago. A broken window or two but nothing much. The protestors were given their marching orders and have followed them.
Lines up with the Kamala’s speech. A large part of her base does not want a pre-Isreal stance and she made it so tonight. That should concern Team Dumbass I think.
Not off the hook…but some dedicated protesters out there
https://www.breitbart.com/2024-election/2024/08/22/watch-live-protests-erupt-in-chicago-as-democratic-national-convention-coronates-kamala/
Chicago PD found their power. Lots of “fuck the police” which, sure I am all for. Dude holding up traffic…protestors saying “let him go”…which we know he will be
“Go home pigs” chants now…so ya..there is some action
There’s obviously gonna be some ebbs and flows, but when I tuned in there seemed to be more paparazzi than protestors. So fucking lame.
But, it’s still early. Maybe these soy boys and girls and otherkins will fucking man up overnight.
Ohhh! “Pigs go home”. Haha. I thought they were saying “bitch go home” and was going to comment on the misogyny. lol
Police finally found their nuts..I guess. Attendees out now. Peaceful, which is good.
things might be getting interesting as people leave the convention hall
blocking traffic now…probably gonna be okay.
On to basically checkpoints and asking if you support Palestine
Red shirt guy in the red car is my hero. He’s gonna be on the news tomorrow
oh…now focused on blocking one dude. Assholes
Dude’s patience is epic..but…can only be so much. Hopefully just let him through.
Idiots: Free Palestine
Hero: I don’t give a fuck about Palestine
I swear there was a guy who said “I have a sign!” as people pestered him. Epic. Again…glad it is just assholes and not dumbasses.
It’s been remarkably relieving for the day to have been so long yet gone by so fast. MmmHmmm! I’m tremendously pleased.
I STILL have a few SOPs to go over and sign, and then some “quizzes” I gotta take. I was pretty much told today it’s the online form of Open Book. Coworkers all seem chipper, chill and friendly. End of the month and bennies, today was quite slow on the floor. Tomorrow I should, and honestly hope, I get out on the floor and start shadowing. I need a goddamn yearbook of faces and names, dammit. I’ve forgotten at least four already. *gggrug*
The shadowing –> ‘doing shit while watched’ —> ‘doing shit on own’ will be a curious journey. I have vague ideas of how it’s supposed to go, but my first ever client should be quite chill. Ain’t a patient. I practiced on students who wanted to learn, and these folk also wanna gain something. It’s so swweeeeeet $$ is the incentive ‘n drive. Makes me happy
The Democratic party is now officially the party of war. Good job hippies.
She’s trying to have it both ways in Israel. I wonder how that plays out.
Fuck this.
She is so full of shit. I made it through four minutes.
That is an outfit that screams…..communism
“In community, there is strength” fuck these platitudes…that is straight Nazism.
LOL She actually said “In Unity There is Strength!” Like a bundle of sticks, I guess.
A terrorist org called Hamas did things…I mean..we are fucked.
“Everything within the Democrat Party, nothing outside the Democrat Party, nothing against the Democrat party.”
DNC 2024 slogan, probably.
USA USA chant was…muted. Interesting.
I’m shocked someone even started a USA chant.
There were many USA chants. Nationalism, strength in unity, strong military, a strong welfare state, eugenics in the form of abortions and being pro war but anti-Isreal. I dunno, it just all seems somehow familiar.
Oh it was very very quiet. So probably a small section. Or my hearing is bad. Its 50/50 like our country.
ah, i went back and listened. my call was wrong. Yep..in unity there is strength. She might have well just gone all out Acoltye with this..
Alright…gonna say it. Her hand movements are very….vagina’esqe
There you go.
At least CNN put freedom in scare quotes…
On CNN also
Our future
I guess it is no different than “will water cooler conversations be held”
Except, the ‘For You’ pages are pushed advertising, not organic conversation.
That is the game that the young understand.
I aint gonna knock CNN for not immediately putting up a fact check. They have been trying. Really, it hasn’t been terrible in terms of one-sided partisan coverage. Slanted, yes, but not all in. However, come on…you had to have been fact-checking that mess of bullshit.
Interesting tidbit from CNN again
Oh…can’t claim first black president got it. All about first claims. Bro was onto something.
Reports of my death have been greatly exaggerated.
I made a video for you
GAY AF.
NOTHING CAN KILL GLIBFLIKS!
After this, I’m going to watch Jesus Christ Vampire Killer again.
If I don’t fall asleep.
And if I can find it.
Oh. Yeah. You helpfully provided the link.
I am the durp.
Kamala should write a book about her struggle.
Doesn’t she have to be in prison to do so?
This movie is awesome. Sorry it got upstaged by some high yellow cuntbasket.
Thanks, RJ 🙂
Good on Team Blue to not go insane in Chicago. Well, good on the people outside of the DNC DMZ
Still. We were expecting much more and you will not be joining the Jedi or Sith training course this semester. Beter luck next year, good day sirs/madams.
Fact check are in..
CNN: True
Rationale…Trump has promised to use the Department of Justice to attack critics and former allies. <—This leads to an opinion piece of CNN called "CNN's What Matters newsletter" There other proof? <a href="https://www.cnn.com/2023/11/16/politics/trump-agenda-second-term/index.html"Here
I had some hopes above that while slanted, CNN was doing a decent job.
Look, I am all for exposing politicians, but linking to that…that is bullshit.
Oh..the fact checks are more on Trump than on Harris. Yay!
But it was totes cool when Obama did it
You aint wrong Why The Obama Administration Wants This Journalist In Jail
Well, see, that’s like Ukraine, when they stormed their capital and demanded to overthrow an election, that was Democracy in action. When Trump supporters did it, it was insurrection. Who does things matters, not how or why they do them.
To argue otherwise is ‘Whataboutism’, boomer.
SNL used to made fun of both sides once. Fucking Nazis!
Good morning all you Glibnauts! Glibbernauts?

🎶🎶
Good morning, Sean, U, Ted’S., and Stinky!
Morning.
Everything right with the world? Or something awry?
As far as I can tell, there’s a lot awry with the world, but I’m fine. How about you?
I made it to the office. I’ve arranged for someone to water the lavender there while I’m gone. I’ve filed for my mail to be held so it doesn’t pile up at the house. I’ve twice sprayed the plants growing through my sidewalk, but some are stubborn bastards. If you’re growing in concrete, I suppose you have to be a little stubborn. Paid my regular monthly bills. Made sure I have ample audiobooks for the drive. Still have some other stuff on my “must get done before leaving” checklist.
Sounds great! I’m sure you can handle whatever is left to be done.
Morning, GT!
Hope everything is great stateside. My wife is really suffering from a cold she caught from her niece. Worse. I got a whiff of it, but nowhere near as bad as she did. I tried to tell her to stock up on L-Lysine, but because it was my idea, she didn’t dose up. As soon as the niece got sick, I doubled up on L-Lysine and I’ve been doing pretty good.
My Silk browser lost at least 100 open tabs. Mostly YouTube tabs. Mostly music, but some gun related stuff. 😒
I’VE BEEN HACKED BY THE COMMIES!
More likely the NSA.
Question – Why do you keep over 100 tabs open?
Because I can?
It’s been stable for years like that.
It’s odd that a dozen or so didn’t get lost. Would have made more sense for a total crash.
Because FYTW? :-p
Yeah that would drive me nuts.
I also wish I could Zero Inbox.
I have nearly 80,000 emails in my inbox.
All of them are read, but there are times when I have to pull out old messages and go “On X/Y/Z, you said…”
Ah, Why did I miss the obvious joke – Your browser tabs have been redistributed, hoarder.
OMG, CBS really laying it on thick this morning about CommaLa.
We’re so fucked. Proper fucked.
Maybe we’ll get a more communist flag in our soon to be 3rd world country.
You don’t like price controls dude? Do you like paying ten dollars for a Big Mac?
It’s gonna be fine.
You wanted a reminder closer to my road trip that I was going to be passing nearby on the 27th in case we were able to meet up so that you could offload some electronics stuff you were tired of having take up space.
As that is this coming tuesday, I figured I should give said reminder. For more detailed planning, and avoiding risk of missing messages posted in comments, my email is scribe at evcombine dot net .
Got it.
Sent you a email, will be from mi5to let me know if you don’t get it. I’m off to work so Ill check in later.
I got it and responded, have a good day at work.
suh’ fam
yo whats goody
/TALL PAYDAY CANS!
Good morning, homey!
*checks calendar*
Payday’s next wednesday.
‘suppity-sup-sup?
My next payday is going to assist in my mood, tone, social possibilities, and natural chemical makeup. Shall be nice.
Third of five 10-hour shifts in a row. Shocked how quickly it all goes. I honestly am. Hopefully today I get done w the slightly ridiculous online quizzing they have me/us do and get out on the floor to help out. It would be nice and is a goal.
Five in a row was only cuz a Dr appt I have next Wed. Next week I only work Mon, Thurs and Fri to make up for it. We get every other weekend (pretty) guaranteed off, so they bunched things (with my approval) to give me the full weekend off, next. This is in my Korea and Tribune versions of going out and conquering the world. I enjoy the odd routes I do find.
The facility is getting slower… and almost all of it is cuz bennies are drying out. I was told and gathered this. I wonder how busy weekends are. Normally, hey!, ya got more time. But also, hey!, ya got kids and can be w ’em, addition. I’m guessing far less busy, but also people w weekday jobs will influx, so I’m not sure the layout yet. Which is much of the charm.
Evan is happy Knave and Nicole seem to have gotten together and fucked out progeny they strongly approve of. (This is in reference to sides of my personality. Not my rogue-Dad and mother who isn’t actually named that.)
I’m not sure I could mentally handle five ten hours in a row without some preparation. I’ve gotten complacent.
Glad things are still going well.
To be perfectly fair and clear, I’m in a training room reading SOPs, signing off on them, and then 25% of the ~130 docs are legit ‘kinda gotta look at, write high school notes, then take a quiz w really no pressure. I’ve been around the floor and talked to colleagues and folk, but I haven’t actually done anything yet.
This is still onboarding, which I’d consider half-work. However, we get an hour for lunch. I don’t need that long. I’d prefer to take 30min or so and get off early. Naps will eventually be built in. I’m also an energetic, athletic and wiry, (borderline jittery), little (taller than older bro!) creature.
Good morning all. New guy here. Been lurking for some months, but been enjoying reading the conversations, pun chains, and the general knowledge and advice you give to each other. Don’t care for some of the crude humor in the serial comedy postings, but them I’m not required to nor should anybody file down their sharp edges to avoid sending me into a dead faint. Look forward to meeting those of you fairly local to me (Sean). Because of internet issues (70% of the time I have no internet, period) I will be posting only intermittently. Because of that issue I apologize in advance if I am tardy (or flat out don’t) reply to responses. Also because I am not electronically geared (Iphone rarely in hand, computer often miles away when I am out in the field) I am frequently blissfully unaware that I am in a conversation until days or even weeks later, which makes me look like a rude ass. So my MO will be more like see something interesting to comment on, lay in a comment, and fly off. I have more than Orthanc to look after these days, after all!
Fuck off Tulpa!
To all ‘fore I depart: I’m sorry my mood and tone were rather, uh, depression and nonsense spurred “oh, this fuck” demeanor many found off-putting. Correctly so, I gather.
Certainly a funsy article should be written by this one. I can’t think of many travel ones that I haven’t done / wouldn’t be depressing (Cambodia comes to mind). I’m also concerned about the pics and internal memories I have. Hrm.
Thinking my character will bring ’em together: I put my phlebotomical medical dive in the same upper strata of ‘Korea,’ the Peru Tribune, and ‘recovery from The Incident’– times I just bounded out and started something new. I’m an odd one. I’m thinking a pretty tell-tale version of how I ‘decided’ to go medical. A write-up of folk-sellin’ plasma is a feel-good story just by itself. I can’t believe I fucking ‘lucked’ into something that morally suits me to perfection. (Internal Narrator of Sense: It wasn’t luck.) <– I find it hard to believe I have a deep understanding of 'sense' inside me. "I just dooo things…"
I would be curious, and onward, upward! A curious flight, this one. I rather enjoy how I "tend" to not-often-strolled 'lil alleys.
