My LIfe Has Meaning Again!

I missed you Abby! I think you and Ree will be great friends!

The Ones You Shouldn't Hurt At All

With time, comes decay. It's the way of the world. Houses will eventually crumble. Food goes bad. Bonds break. Try as we might to convince ourselves that things will remain as special and brilliant as they were in the past, eventually we have to step up and face the music, that everything changes, and, often, it is not the change we saw coming or the change we wanted. This mindset is the centerpiece of Blue Valentine, a deconstruction of a love that focuses on only two moments in the relationship, the beginning and the end. It's an incredibly difficult movie to muster, but it's that reason exactly that makes it so good.

Other Sides to the Conversation: Week of February 4th

Uhhh... yeah. JoGo's in The Dark Knight Rises. That's all the news that's fit to print this week.

What are you looking at?

Anyway. Here are some things upon which you can click, which will take you to other things, upon which you can read.

Film Intel gives their opinion on a personal guilty pleasure, Black Dynamite. He and I couldn't have more differing opinions on the matter.

In another installment of his ongoing, IS IT JUST ME, series, Kai voices the question that's been plaguing a lot of people, whether or not Toy Story 3 should be nominated for Best Picture.

The m0vie blog looks at another casting rumor tied to The Dark Knight Rises. This one is interesting, to say the least.

And finally, Fletch, Hatter, and I have all made the decision that Disqus, while a fun experiment, failed to deliver the goods, and, as such, we have switched back to Blogger's regular comment system.

These are trying times we live in. Keep your head on a swivel. Travel in packs. And always carry your sword. You'll be ok!

Rising Ever Higher

Just in case you didn't put two and two together with my freakout post yesterday, let me break it down for you.

OH MY GOD!!! OH MY GOD!!!

THEY HEARD MY PRAYERS!!!!!

PLUS

IS HAPPENING!!!!!!

YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!

According to the Movies #23

If the movies say it, it must be true!

I'm gonna take another trip into 28 "insert time length here" Later... land. As you are no doubt aware, the rage virus is not called the rage virus because it makes everyone all passive and friendly and makes them want to cuddle with people a whole huggy-buggy bunch. No, it pisses them off, so much so that they feel the need to brutalize every single non infected person they see. The infected (see Nick, I'm adhering to your rules) are big fans of sprinting up to you and doing bad things to your body, but there is one sector of the human figure that they despise above all others. Those little globes of matter in your head really tick them off for some reason, and they will do everything they can to relieve you of them.

The Lesson: Eye balls exude a pheromone that really gets the infected in a frenzy. Watch out! If you're not infected, and you have eyes, you might to invest in a pair of goggles... or something.
