Oh, is that what Sinead was talking about?


I just rewatched Deadwood. Awesome again.

Yeah, you know, when I did some research on the Magdalene Laundries after watching the movie, it did mention Sinead (Sine-aid) had spent time in one.

It's more clear to me why she ripped the pope in half on national television.

It's Complicated. There were some funny sections, but overall I found it to be just ok.

"Hombre" w/Paul Newman. Good older movie.

"Shutter Island" SPOILER ALERT: Yeah, he's fucking nuts.

Finally got around to seeing Inglorious Basterds.


Meh. I laughed out loud several times, and if I think back to any particular scene I can remember being enthralled by it. But the gratuitous violence was just dumb (and not funny-dumb, like Kill Bill.) And the text on the screen was really irritating. It was like a half-dozen excellent scenes with amazing tension and drama, with all the other bits done by a sophomore film student letting the marijuana dictate his juvenile sense of "cool."

I thought wild things sucked too, but I only listened to it in the car. The kids liked it.

Watched "Rec" last night. A decent horror movie. Not high on gore but it had some dark parts that sent chills up the spine.
Downloading "Rec 2" and "Session 9" right now.

Just re-watched (for the umpteenth time) War of the Worlds.

Tom Cruise is an annoying, pompous douche.

Dakota Fanning is talented, but the character she portrays (or rather, often portrays,) is annoying as Hell.

Movie is saved by a decent plot (thank you, H.G Wells, yet again,) and, of course, the great voice of Morgan Freeman!

Totally agree! If TC didn't look so much like someone I know then I'd watch virtually nothing he is in.

Do you ever get the urge to punch that someone in the face, just because Tom Cruise is such an unimaginably dim-witted, ego-centric, arrogant toss-pot of a mental-ward patient?

I applaud you for holding back.

Session 9 completely rocks. It's a nuthouse favorite.

lol. I never thought of it that way. I'll bring it up next time I see him. Better yet, maybe I'll just sucker-punch him first and then explain.
