Salma Hayek and a lot Shoot 'Em Up

Last night I hosted (really my wife did all the work) Men's Movie Night. A few guys once a month get together and the host provides some food; people bring their own beverage and the host picks the movie. Last night was my night. First; my wife made her now world famous bacon wrapped beer brats; she also put together cheese dip and some peanuts and M&M's. So the food part was good. Originally I was going to show "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest"; then opted for one I had in house "Bull Duhram". Well turns out; the case for Bull Duhram was available...the actuall DVD is AWOL. So; I had to make an audible on what to show; I had Caddyshack; now that would have been an easy one...but really it was too easy! So I went with the Robert Rodriguez film Desperado. Antonio Banderas stars as a Mariachi who is out for revenge with a guitar case full of mass destruction. Robert Rodriguez is a bit of a Quentin Tarantino protege; in fact Tarantino has a small part in the movie. Those who hadn't seen the movie last night thought it was ok, someone offered "different"; now as for their thoughts on Salma Hayek...let's see; I may have heard a remark or two about how she 'enhanced' the film...
By the way; my wife asks the question, "Men's Movie Night; is that equivilant to Ladie's Chick Flicks?"
Yeah; probably so.
Have a great day.
