Why did it say (before my post) that Knock was the last to post when it seems that Quade was? Did anyone else notice that?

A question we should ask ourselves is "Could it mother fucking happen here?"

Saw World Trade Center. It was very moving. It also wasn't political at all. Nothing to do with the Bush Administration, terrorists, or war. Just the plain and simple story of the two last people (port authority police officers) to be pulled from the rubble of the towers. I would recommend seeing it to those of you that like disaster movies based on true events. They also didn't show the planes impacting the buildings, just a few clips of real news footage that the characters watched on their tv's.
Ok, saw some scenes of Pulse on my breaks. (I work a couple of nights a week at a movie theater so Pooh and I can get free movies anytime we want. ;) ) I must say it's quite boring and not worth the time and money spent on a ticket. I would highly recommend if you want something scary at the moment to go see The Decsent. Kinda gorey, but I hear it's pretty good for startle factor. Also on the horror movie list, there's a Korean horror flick coming out soon called The Host. I will give you a link as soon as I can find it. Or maybe Pooh can. I saw the full length trailer for Saw III, lookin pretty good!!! WOOHOOO!!! Can't wait to get that box set. Allright, well there's my movie update.

Ok, I don't want to stir up controversy (sp?) or start a debate here, but who's going to see World Trade Center??

On a related note:
I think I'm gonna have to go see it. As soon as Pooh can get the scanner working I'll scan my pictures of New York and Washington DC pre-September 11th for those who are interested in looking at them. I have a pic taken out of the 66th floor of One World Trade Center. That's as high as I dared to go. :P :)

Clerks 2 was fucking awesome. :)

"It's not beastiality! It's inter-species erotica."

This movie is two stories. The fairytale that he told his children, and the tale of a director getting fed up with everyones crap. If you were disappointed with every movie he's done after the Sixth Sense, you will not like this movie. Unfortunately most people and critics go in to his movies expecting one thing, when the story M. Night is telling is another. They fail to see this other story. I see M. Night as an adult that refused to let his child fantasies go. Ghosts, comic book heroes, aliens, fairy tales. He brings the things that we loved as a kid to life. He puts realism into his movies. At the same time, he puts keys in all his movies to open the door to this fantastical world. The key is almost always faith. Now with that said.

Lady in the Water (the fairytale)
The story is great. Unfortunately we only know the story from a Korean that Cleveland (lead) has to basically force out of her at different times in the movie. Not only that, her daughter has to translate. M. Night really needs to write a book, because there seems to be a lot to the fairytale that we don't get to see in the movie. It's like the movie is only a few chapters of the book. It's still pretty entertaining, nonetheless. Funny, creepy, emotional, and entertaining. Lots of characters here too. Some seemed to be written for both the fairytale and the directors release, but all necessary for a successful movie.

Lady in the Water (Directors Release)
I am going to put these in spoilers, cause it's revealing, and not necessary to decide if you want to see the movie or not.

Ok. With that said. M. Night decides not to be subtle this time. He decides to tell everyone what he thinks of critics, and Hollywood execs too. The message of faith he speaks of to the audience, and to the critics willing to listen. People think that M. Night shows his inflating ego in this movie, mostly cause the character he plays has a very important role in the future of this story. I feel every character is a part of M. Night, and the message is clear. Everyone character says something in the film that relates both to the fairy tale and M. Night. I'd have to watch the film again to quote them. I feel that this movie is the directors release. This movie is his soapbox, if you will. It's like a bad marriage. He's divorced his studio, and is off to start fresh. Get his identity back. I believe from here on out we'll see some new and improved films.

anyone notice that leonardo kinda looked like ed?

For some reason, White Chicks was a HUGE success. Or, at least, it appeared to be....HAHA Little Man trailer just came on as I type this. Anyway, working at Hastings, White Chicks was rented ALOT. When a movie stops being rented so often the take it off the wall. I can bet you that as of tonight, it's still on the wall as a "best renter".

Spider-Man 3 teaser.

A couple of the pictures I've seen him in character disappointed me. He looked like an old strong man. Rippled and wrinkled and a little out of shape. I've also seen part of the movie footage of him ramming into and busting a wall out that was really cool. We'll see soon enough though. Thanks Quade for the heads up on staying late. I usually do JIC. Side note, at the end of the MI3 credits, they thank the Hanso Foundation. Neat.
