Mystic River (2003): kind of a slow movie. interesting but just way too deep and slow. there are so many questions at the end that never get answered. like most movies that fit this description, the acting is really well done. i can see why peeps liked it, but it just dragged. don't see. i imagine the novel is much better, so pry yourself from the tv/computer and read it instead.
A Fistful of Dollars (1964): a really, really good story. eastwood plays such a witty character and makes the movie so much fun to watch. its clever and inventive and deserves all the praise its ever gotten. i finally have seen a film of this genre to relate to with kill bill 2 now. my only complaint is that the dubbing of some of the actors is freaking awful. you'd hear the stupid kid crying and his mouth wouldn't even be open. however, i'm looking forward to seeing the next one. its definitely worth seeing, and maybe if they sell the three movies on dvd in a cheap $20 pack, i'll buy it too.
Garden State (2004): natalie natalie natalie. she is the greatest actress of our day. she is so freaking perfect in this really weird movie. its very deep and humorous and each scene is so nicely done. there is nothing that really stands out in this movie as being spectacular besides natalie's performance, but its a nice feel good movie that seems pretty dang close to real life stuff. most movies are so far out there, but i really felt connected to this one. my only complaint is with the main character largeman. he was confusing because like the guy in eurotrip, one minute he is crazy shy, anxiety guy, the next he is really out there. and i didn't see the gradual change maybe they were going for. see it and put it on your backup buy list.
ON CLOTHING: i bought these sweet gloves yesterday for when i go snowboarding. they are sooooo dang tight. was gonna go for the jacket, but didn't know if i'd have the moola for that. so these gloves are tight. fully equipped with a goggle wiper, nose wiper, detachable inner glove lining, and patented little plastic connector thing so you don't lose your gloves. well, i get home and as i'm reading about these high tech features i notice who these features were really made for. chicks!! yes, i bought freaking women's gloves. now when i look at them, i see them so differently now. like a bunch of little girly mittens. kim thinks they could pass as guy gloves, so i might keep them. i need a few more opinions then i'll see.
ON POLITICS: did anyone else catch the tony soprano reference made by john kerry in the last debate? thought that was pretty cool. more proof that JK is the man. you really think GW is watching sopranos?
ON MUSIC: good charlotte, the worst band in america, is now coming to play at our school with sum 41. hillary duff is the worst actor and female singer in the biz. although not my pick of music, folk, bluesy type girl singers are very good, even though most are lesbians. however nothing against lesbians. on the more poppy, folksy type, michelle branch is the best singer out of all the brittany's, christina's, and sluts out there. speaking of, lindsay lohan has turned into slut-o-rama in her new Rumor video. check it out on http://launch.yahoo.com. sure, she's got the goods to show off, but she is so freaking fake and she's like 16 for pete's sake. finally, i heard that "girl you look good, won't choo back dat ass up" song. is this song english? someone please translate because it makes no freaking sense.
i wish i had more time/room to write about friday night's dinner i had to serve for law society. it was such a freaking blast. emily and i partnered up on two tables and we rocked the freaking hizzouse. it was so dang fancy with fountains and lights and the whole works. the food looked unbelievable, despite the fact we got jipped and didn't get a single morsel of food. then there was this stalker girl all up on me because i reminded her of her ex-finance. emily was thankfully to the rescue and swatted the little hoe off. it lasted close to 7 hours, but we had a good time. wasn't as bad as i thought it would be. as for today, a fire just broke out on campus not too long ago and i had to send the whole calvary out (5 different trucks). never a dull moment at this place.
ON SPORTS: #9 u of u rawks the shizzay. better enjoy it now cuz 1 loss and they out the dizzay. so nice to see CU winning. does anyone care about mlb playoffs right now besides ny and mass. peeps? the pat's are unstoppable. this year's hockey season will most likely include tom's team. i still don't like basketball. and my new fav sport: ballroom dancing. sounds like i've turned into a fairy, but holy smokes, i almost cried at the dinner on friday watching our school ballroom dance team. words can't describe it, so i won't even try.
