What is that, a cudgel?

Looks more like a mace. A mace topped by an iron football of death.

I'm sorry. The answer we were looking for was "Flail."

Flail.

As in, "football-shaped flail."

I really wanted to use the word cudgel in a sentence. I think a cudgel is more like a giant hammer.

I always thought of a cudgel as being more like a club or maybe a shilelagh.

cudgel - a club that is used as a weapon

A winner is you.

Cool, although I really just wanted an excuse to use the word shilelagh.

Although it's one of those words that's much more effective when said, than when typed.

IRON FOOTBALL OF DEATH!

Let's compromise. It's a flail, but it's topped by an Iron Football of Death!

I move that if BH's band ever makes an album, it's called "Iron Football of Death".
Don't read too much into any of it. It's Rozner. He's a fucking idiot.

While it isn't on the same level as Variety, these guys have a first look at the potential plot lines from the movie.

So THIS is Destro? Our enemy is some Scottish weenie in a suit? Shouldn't he have darker skin and some sort of rag or towel on his head?

I think he was captured by Obama's secret Black Muslim Homosexual Communist army.  Likely in a reeducation camp now, learning to hate America and love dudes.

MikeC would probably prefer seeing the GI Joe team shooting a missile at the UN building and nuking Moscow.

For some reason, I decided to add this to my Netflix queue.  I was prepared for some stupid action and ridiculous plots, but holy shit...

This wasn't even fun enough to make up for the terrible acting, awful CGI, and retarded plot.  I really hope Joseph Gordon-Levitt wasn't actually the guy wearing the stupid mask.  He's actually a good actor.  Channing Tatum, on the other hand, makes Paul Walker look like Marlon Brando.

Movies like this are the reason Netflix exists.  To think that only a couple years ago, we had to pay $5 to watch this shit at home.

You think Brando coulda played Brian O'Conner better?  You're nuts.  And Paul Walker was the balls in Running Scared(not the Billy Crystal/Gregory Hines one).
Can you help me live a little more?  I expect good news.
