One Day Back When

Well, one day back when I had a little higher muscle to fat ratio my dad told me something. He said, "Son, I think its time we talked about your drug problem."

As we all know that did not happen, well, anything about the last statement. I did have a story to tell, but now that I'm at work I can't seem to remember it and its only 2:10 in the AM. It had to do with something my dad told me, but I just can't seem to remember.

I did see Hero starring Jet Li and his asian counterparts, or cohorts rather. It was a period piece, and a very artsy one at that, but in the end it was satisfying in a 'foriegn film' sort of way.

More importantly I saw Donnie Darko, and that is a great film, very bizarre, but more interesting than anything I've seen in the theatre in a long while, including Riddick which sucked. While I am speaking of films I would just like to say that while I still believe that most are a waste of my life, there are some which do stimulate intellectually, and possibly touch the funny bone, one such film is The Big Lebowski, another such film is not Aliens vs. Predator, which is truly a waste of a lot of people's time.

So in conclusion I wish I could remember that story, and I am glad that this page loaded tonite, because it didn't last night. Also, since I will not be at work for a couple of days there will be no blog for a couple of days.

I think you are fast becoming a movie snob and/or cynic, my friend. That does seem to be the popular thing lately.

Whoa whoa whoa. Who says that not liking stupid movies is being a movie snob? Stupid movies suck. Most movies are stupid. Therefore according to the multiplicative inverse property of 0, most movies suck. Can anyone really deny that? Can anyone really say that there are more good movies than bad movies? Have you seen Underworld?

I'm just saying it is possible to enjoy bad movies for their bad-ness. Besides, is anyone here a fan of the movie FAST AND THE FURIOUS? Hmm.

I think we need to differentiousness between movies that are good at being bad and movies that are just plain bad. Movies that are good at being bad at least some sort of appeal. F&F was definatly appealing, but by anyone's standards, it was muddled, cliched and highly questionable. That did not stop it from being an entertaining movie though. That is the difference between movies like AVP and FF. AVP has no appeal other than brand recognition whereas FF has personality appeal despite being a bad movie.
