Monika’s Pensieve

I always thought the existence of such porn is some sort of urban myth or something, but apparently not ;)
After I wrote my Rambo review the other day, I checked Stallone up on the Celebrity Nudity Database. It’s a website I have always found quite hilarious, but I find it has a slightly more practical [...]

I’m quite horrible when it comes to famous Hollywood films of the past that everyone else seems to have seen - especially the action films (I still haven’t seen the Terminator would you believe :]). So it is with great delight that I announce I have finally watched Rambo ;)
