I hated Saving Private Ryan.
The plot is just too ridiculous.
Now A Thin Red Line thats a good movie. Get your Nolte up.
Which brings us to The Good Thief
I liked this films, but the friends I saw it with really hated it. I here Nolte started taking small doses of heroin for the role, thats crazy.
Blues is for beating my woman
Jazz is for convincing her not to call the cops.
The "Greats" are great no matter what, just depends on the mood. As Bailey mentiones A Love Supreme is one of the greatest compositions ever. At the same time I also love the bebop style of Bird Parker especially on vinyl. Doesn't everyone love jazz hands?
I love the blues, but most especially old Robert Johnson recordings. Theres just a grit and a truth there that can't be duplicated.
Its weird, I hadn't seen my housemate in two day, I look at this thread, and I finally see him, turns out he's been hiding out in his room playing EAW. I guess that means its a good game.

I can't believe we spend that much on foreign aid. Obviously we are a much more generous country then I ever knew.
Bulfinch's Mythology: The Age of Chivalry The Legends of Charlemagne
Well I always seem them on emusic and wonder, I guess now I'll stop wondering and give it a try.
Ya, So long and Thanks For All the Shoes is one of the most underrated albums.
Old 97's -- Big Brown Eyes
sometimes I wonder if this song really has another meaning
Spoon, are they really any good?
NOFX -- I'm All Out of Angst
So I'm off to pakistan, learn the laws of islam
Fundamemtalism, forget that rock-n-roll
No cigarettes, no drink, in fact
It's difficult to think about getting laid
When you don't even get to see her face
I'm not insane
A friend got us into a semi-advance screening of 16 blocks tonight. I had never heard of the movie and was somewhat dumbfounded when one of my friends started describing it as probaly being Die-Hard IIIish with crooked cops in the cab ride to the theater.
This movie really started to eat at me the first time Mos Def opened his mouth and proceded to get worse and worse. This was only the 2nd time I've walked out on a movie (Any Given Sunday) but luckily there are several bars within walking distance of the theater.
I don't know if its just that I waited until everyone had hyped it up so much to see Kill Bill or what, but I never much liked it. Kill Bill 2 just sort of made me sleepy.
"Hi, I'm Jim Fix, I'm dead now and I don't know what the **** happened. I jogged everday, ate nothing but tofu, swam five hundred laps every morning and I'm dead, Yul Brynner drank, smoked and got laid every night of his life, he's dead. ****."
Elliott Smith -- Needle in the Hay
"He's wearing your clothes Head down to toes a reaction to you You say you know what he did But you idiot kidYou don't have a clue Sometimes they just get caught in the eye You're pulling him through"
Probaly the best song ever written by someone who stabbed themself to death.
I'd have to ask myself, would it be worth living if I were to be thought of as Canadian? Sometimes death is a blessing.
Now if there was a sign saying "Buckwheats ahead for Texans" then I would have some serious thinking to do.
