I'm watching "The Ladykillers", Tom Hanks. It's very sick. I like it!

About 25 minutes into this, I wished I'd seen it in the theater.

12. "I'm tryin' to help you, boy!" *while smacking him upside the head* LOL

I love that part, too! I think my favorite part is when the General tries to kill the old lady, and ends up killing himself.

4. Have you seen the original?

With Alec Guiness and Peter Sellers? It's wonderful!

6. Yes, that's why I didn't see this one in 1st release. I was wrong.

It's a different setting but just as odd and strange. Very funny stuff.

5. I like that sort of humor.

You might try "Clay Pigeons" if you have not seen it yet.

11. Sure!

It has Janeane Garafalo(sp) in it, she plays an FBI agent. Very dark humor, I was very entertained.

9. It's a pale carbon of the Alec Guiness gem

Tom Hanks is NO Alec Guiness!

10. The little old lady in that one was wonderful...

I think her name was Katie Johnson. I agree with you--no one could replace the flavor of the original.
