The Seventh Seal Chinatown Cinema Paradiso The Seven Samurai The Good, The Bad, The Ugly

I thought it was maybe the best neo-Thriller I've seen it quite a while. It does for modern marriage what Blue Velvet did for 80's rural America. It challenges perception with subversive character studies. I thought Rosamund Pike made the film really. Had David Fincher not removed Reese...

Gone Girl.... Well. That was interesting.

Ex Machina. One of the best Sci Fi Dramas I've seen in years. Alex Garland is as interesting a director as he is a writer. Amazing production as well.

21 years?! I remember being in college when it came out. Still one of the best things he's ever done. And it may be Weller's best selling album as well. Went multi-platinum I believe.

Yeah. There is quite a bit of footage. Mostly from the famous Big East Tourneys of the 80's with HOFers Chris Mullens and Patrick Ewing. But there is also key footage of Georgetown and Villanova's NCAA tournament runs. Like I said, it made me pretty nostalgic.

Hey I'm not a gear head. But I just paid attention and it seemed to me to be more realistic. When he opened it up I was like, "Wow. That does sound more like iit." Whereas in other films on every car turn you hear the same reprocessed stock sound. I give the sound guys a lot of credit back...

I can't wait till we're rid Yaya and this other clown. This is beyond a joke.

Every day when I got home from school I'd get the key from under the door mat. Turn on the TV and the first thing I heard was. "This is Jim Rockford..."

What do I think? Two words..... Uncle Rico!

The Wire is by far my favorite show from probably the last two decades. Number one will always be The Rockford Files though. I still can't believe how well written the series was. Everything about it was first class.

I wish Yaya had the balls to tell his agent to STFU. But I gotta believe this is the end of his career at City. Kind of sad it has to end this way. But it was only a matter of time, really.
