Labling creole remoulade sauce as "weak" is a relative term.

http://www.emerils.com/recipe/name/creo ... sauce.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Ingredients
3/4 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup chopped green onions (green and white parts)
1/2 cup chopped yellow onions
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup chopped celery
3 tablespoons Creole or other whole-grain mustard
3 tablespoons ketchup
3 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
2 tablespoons chopped garlic
2 tablespoons prepared horseradish
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cayenne
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Instructions
Combine all the ingredients in a blender or a food processor fitted with a steel blade and process until fairly smooth, about 30 seconds.

Transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before using. (The sauce will keep for up to one week in the refrigerator.)

Saw it. Thought it was okay, but... egh. It's kind of like licking paint chips. Watching that stuff too much hurts your brain. And you enter the point of no return!

I am in love with this film. I saw Inglourious Basterds two weekends ago, and I saw District 9 on Saturday, and I've already given District 9 more thought. Amazing stuff.

Sharlto Copley, anyone? Never acted before in his life, never planned an acting career, but finds himself the very talented star of a blockbuster hit! This guy's gonna' be big.

This movie surprised me in many ways. Much deeper and more brilliant (in a sci-fi way) than I expected. And I'm a tough critic, especially when it comes to movies that are largely CGI-fests. This movie is an instant classic to me. Part of me wants a sequel (lots of questions to be answered) but part of me knows it may not live up to the first's awesomeness.

I saw it last Thursday in San Diego. I liked it. But the again, one of my mottos is "the only good Nazi is a dead Nazi."

The only thing better than dead Nazis is Nazi zombies.

I can't wait to see it... on DVD.

I'm not supporting of Nazism, but the movie seems to glorify violence just because "It's okay; they're Nazis".

As if Tarantino needs a reason to glorify violence. It's kind of his thing, regardless of the setting.

Yeah, Nazi's do make an easy target. George Lucas knew that.

I was a bit put off by it, and I love dead Nazi stories. It was an interesting movie, but I didn't dig it.

Actually, there was no film involved in the production of it. It was shot on the Red cam, same camera I recently shot a music video on.
