Thissssss.

If your plot revolves around a guy that can flip cars with his mind and he's in a life and death struggle I wanna see heads ripped off at a minimum.

I abstain from voting. It's just like Keith says, it doesn't make a difference.

I generally stay away from movies that aren't rated R anymore, unless it's a fun movie (The new Pirates movie was good). Most recent disappointment, Suckerpunch. It's set in a strip club/brothel with fantasy fight scenes, and it doesn't have tits or much gore in it.

Sometimes I think that R should stand for Realistic

Have people turn to dust when they get stabbed.

It's bad when the kid wants to bring a shotgun to protect himself, but he can totally use a laser rifle in final battle

I surprised by the language though, these kids are tossing out shits and pussies, odd considering it targets kids.

Just wanted to throw this out there; yes we spend an ungodly amount of money on the space program. But there are everyday inventions that all of us enjoy that come courtesy of that same program. NASA has filed over 6,000 patents, but here are some highlights of what NASA calls "spinoffs," or inventions that came about due to space research:


The computer microchip
Satellite television
Cordless tools
CAT scanner
Infant formula
UV protective lenses
Cell phone cameras
Cochlear implants
Trash compactors
Memory foam
Heart rate monitors

They're popping up all over the northeast and they don't have sirens in Massachusetts.

Oy, and I saw this article this morning and was reminded of Patrice's comments about Gwyneth Paltrow. Ad-execs aren't bothering to aim advertising at us "poors" anymore because we're not buying anything. The top 10% buy 50% of the goods in this country. If you don't make $200K, they just aren't interested in you.

I drove through Kansas and missed a tornado and thought that now I had gotten back to the NorthEast no more tornadoes........guess what........we get a fucking tornado warning. I saw it on my phone and thought it was a joke and my mom was laughing at how people were scared (then again all my family and friends live around boston and closer to the bay) so we weren't worried at all.
That old cracker was right, end of the world

I know better than to recommend movies to Keith, but when he brought up the Enron movie it made me think of the movie "Too Big To Fail", a made for tv (i believe HBO) film about the recent financial crisis and the downfall of banks, etc.. I am usually bored by financial stuff, mostly because I have a hard time understanding it, but I actually really enjoyed it. It was presented in a way that's actually understandable, and the ensemble cast helps it along too. (Paul Giamatti, Ed Asner, William Hurt, James Woods, etc)
