The Daily Tweets, 2009-10-11: The Running Man livesnark

The Running Man

The Running Man: A game nobody survives. But we survived it because we #livesnarked it together!

Most of today’s tweeting was my participation in our inaugural #livesnark event featuring the Arnold Schwarzenegger movie “The Running Man,” which I announced yesterday. These tweets are only my own: to see the full transcript, which includes the wit & wisdom of @jansonjones & 907natalie, see the livesnark blog Janson Jones has set up at his site (& read from the bottom up).  We’re considering having another #livesnark in a couple of weeks featuring “Flash Gordon.”

  • But which way would Cheney have a wetdream? Wet dream or wet the bed? #livesnark #
  • First we must establish Arnold’s innocense with obvious bad dialogue. #livesnark #
  • Yaphet Kotto: what’s a good actor like you doing in a dreg movie like this?
    Jesse Ventura: we know _exactly_ why _you’re_ here. #livesnark #
  • Food fight! er… i mean, prison riot! #livesnark #
  • Based on a novel by Richard Bachman, which really means Stephen King. Paul Michael Glaser directed this? huh. #livesnark #
  • @jansonjones I think you’re a couple minutes ahead of me. #livesnark #
  • @redrummy You can always buy it for $9.99 off iTunes! hahahaaaha #livesnark #
  • Richard Dawson in a big red gashog. #livesnark #
  • For a minute I thought that was a Gold’s Gym shirt he was wearing. But no, it’s World Gym. #livesnark #
  • Geez. And Minnesotans voted that dork into being governor! (But then, look who Alaskans voted for…) #livesnark #
  • @TheMumpower I was thinking he might be on an Aurelia break. #livesnark in reply to TheMumpower #
  • There he is, harrassing women as usual. #livesnark #
  • @907natalie Join in anyway! about 22 minutes in. #livesnark #
  • That’s what you get for inviting a beautiful woman to puke on your ugly shirt, Arnold. #livesnark #
  • But if Aurelia had needed to spit up, she coulda done it on his loud Hawaiian shirt. #livesnark #
  • The lighting for these dancing babes is kinda… poor. #livesnark #
  • Time for … Family Feud! #livesnark #
  • What a hero… stabbed the guy in a back w/ a pencil. #livesnark #
  • What’s this with all the bighair dancing babes touching his chest? #livesnark #
  • So they stole the “I’ll be back” line for Terminator from _this_ flick? #livesnark #
  • Too bad you don’t have that blue Hawaiian shirt still, Arnie — you look like you could use a could puke. #livesnark #
  • Who should she name as the stalker? How about… Arnold Schwarzenegger? B/c he’s a top level stalker, ain’t he? The Gropinator? #livesnark #
  • Time for a dramatic statement of defiance by Arnie. Duh. #livesnark #
  • Why are these stalkers so far all morbidly obese? #livesnark #
  • I think the audience would all look good in red t-shirts with signs that say “Truth is not hate” #livesnark #
  • Are they too stupid to throw one of these chunks of concrete at motorcycle chainsaw man? Apparently so. #livesnark #
  • Get ready for another melodramatic line of Arnoldian defiance! #livesnark #
  • RT @907natalie 907natalie #livesnark runningman home game! Comes with tour very own chainsaw, treadmill and bubblepacked steroids! #
  • Ah first big predictable chainsaw red stripe of blodd, THEN the melodramatic line of Arnoldian defiance. #livesnark #
  • Yeah, he looks like a rather huge lit up condom doesn’t he? #livesnark #
  • “What happened to Buzzsaw?” “He had to split.” ahaahahaaaa what a knee slapper ahahaahaha. #livesnark #
  • RIP Yaphet Kotto: now you don’t need to be in this shitty movie anymore. #livesnark #
  • Wow. I am in awe of those well-spleened lines. #livesnark #
  • He must be the real hero because he’s one mean motherfucker! More fascist than the fascists! Yes! Let’s vote for him! #livesnark #
  • “Have a light.” “What a hothead.” — No: what shitty writers. #livesnark #
  • Jesse Ventura as Captain Freedom: “this is a game of death and honor!” #livesnark #
  • Who will win this election, Arnold Schwarzenegger or Jesse Ventura? If only Sarah could be here too. #livesnark #
  • @jansonjones I bet we could find a good role for Megan Stapletongue too. in reply to jansonjones #
  • (Oops forgot the hashtag.) @jansonjones I bet we could find a good role for Megan Stapletongue too. #livesnark #
  • RT jansonjones #livesnark Ewwwww… “Where did you hide that?” She grins and then replies, “None of your business.” // double-ewwwww #
  • “Don’t touch that dial” badly delivered by Frank Zappa’s son Dweezil. #livesnark #
  • Deck the balls / with jowels of foully / fa la la la la #livesnark #
  • Too many bad one liners to repeat. #livesnark #
  • “I don’t do requests” / “Well that hit the spot” I need a loud blue Hawaiian shirt to barf into now. #livesnark #
  • Ah, what a sweet love story The Running Man is. Just makes my eyes tear up. #livesnark #
  • What a sucko piece of suckwad. Just think: there are reviewers who gave this movie good reviews! #livesnark #
  • What does this song even have to do with the plot of the movie? #livesnark #
  • BTW the Wikipedia account of the plot of the Stephen King (as Richard Bachmann) novel indicates it sucked pretty badly too. #livesnark #
  • Pretty bad. Bad as Total Recall? Hard pick. Total Recall ruined a good writer’s good story. This ruined an OK writers crap story. #livesnark #
  • Did you like my blog post advertising it? #livesnark #
  • @jansonjones Flash Gordon possibly. in reply to jansonjones #

(Tweeting about something else now….)

  • @MoTancharoen I’m still amazed about BSG even after seeing every episode at least two if not three or more times! in reply to MoTancharoen #
  • @CapricaSeven Last night rewatched the “Hush” ep of “Buffy.” Every bit as good as I know all 110+ eps of Caprica will be. 😉 Keep writing! in reply to CapricaSeven #
  • Ah, Dexter. This should surely wipe the last vestiges of poorly written, poorly executed “Running Man” dialogue from my mind. #livesnark #
