I thought the Green Man was who Jim Belushi's character on According to Jim would turn into on St. Patrick's Day.

I'm actually referring to the pun jar, but trying to "keep it in the family", because of the family related puns that preceded my comment. I figured a godfather-type personage would be feared and respected about as much as the pun jar would be, were it inserted in my earlier comment...

Mine? I can hardly believe it, but if you did mean that: "Oh, look! It's Ent Monica!"

The (partially inaccurate) reference, references to 'the original'.


Carpenter's almost stands alone in it's glorious goriness.

I don't recall seeing the third, either I didn't or is so crappilly mediocre I've purged all recollection...

Oddly enough, there's little actual "gore" in Carpenters - mostly what spews around is mucus and slime.

Oh, that's right - it's a prequel.

From the IMDB "Trivia" page for the 2011 film:
This is a prequel to a remake of an adaptation of the novella "Who Goes There?" by John W. Campbell Jr., published in 1938.

So, it's a derivative of a derivative of a derivative of a story?

Let's see. If the novella is Position, then the adaptation (first derivative) is Velocity, the remake (second derivative) is Acceleration, and the prequel (third derivative) is Jerk.

Yup. Moviegoers are being jerked around by Hollywood. Q.E.D.
