The depleted cool kids lunch table, with 2 new additions, went to see King Kong last night. The movie was awesome and although it was a bit long, I felt like I was watching two movies. I’m starting to think that Peter Jackson can do no wrong but we’ll have to see how he […]

Last year, I flew out to Indiana for me and Jackie’s birthday and inadvertently set into motion a weekend that now sits as prominently on my calendar as Christmas and Thanksgiving.
Ian picked me up from the Indianapolis airport Thursday night and we went to Upland (home of an awesome wheat ale) for some dinner. After […]

The roommate has finally started living here and I need to readjust to living with another person again but it’ll definitely be nice to have the extra money. Beyond that it was actually a pretty busy weekend with me leaving the house each day. Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory was awesome despite my initial […]

I finally had my much needed weekend of R&R after a month straight of being being busy. I shouldn’t complain too much because two of those weekends were during my vacation but although I had a lot of fun during that time I didn’t have much time to relax. It’s always nice when I can […]

I’ve been slacking big time but here’s one about movies

What is your favorite action movie? Braveheart or The Rock
What is the worst movie you’ve ever seen? The Icecream Man
Do you prefer comedy or drama? Depends on my mood
Recommend a good tear jerker: A Walk to Remember, I can’t think of […]

I saw the Batman Begins preview they had on after Smallville last night and I’m pretty impressed with the movie as a whole. The few shots they had of The Scarecrow looked pretty damn awesome. The batmobile didn’t look as bad as it did in the inital shots and I think by using the one […]

There was a void this holiday season because the Lord of the Rings trilogy was over but thankfully a new movie is coming out to pick up the slack. The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe was probably one of my favorite books growing up. Click here to view the trailer
Now we just need movie […]

Long ago, in a galaxy far, far away there was a pirate. Actually there were pirates, many, many of them. But the Republic with their intolerance of all things that go “Arg!” decided to send their Jedi after the pirate race. A long war was fought and the pirates were almost exterminated. Utilizing the Underwater […]

Because Ling still has the DVD and I’ve read the book 4 times in the past couple of months, I decided to bust out the High Fidelity soundtrack and one of the all time classic classics that you can’t even use as a hook up song anymore came on. I just have to say that […]

Well I tried to see The Grudge twice this weekend but it was sold out both times. I’m starting to think that Buffy doesn’t want me to see her anymore but no matter what she does, I’ll still have season 1-6. Desipte not seeing my girl in action, I was able to catch I […]

Went to see Shaun of the Dead last night with Butters. It’s probably the best zombie movie I have ever seen. For those of you who haven’t heard of it, it’s basicly Dawn of the Dead in a with a British comedic slacker twist.

Just watched the unrated version of the movie on DVD and it’s so much better. Just think of all the quality from the movie theater version of the flim plus some extra elements that help shape the movie.
Work just sucked today because the internet was out for the majority of the day due to […]

Jackie and I continued our tradition of Mandy Moore movies by going to see Saved! in Columbia today. It’s a great movie for those of you who had the unfortunate experience of dealing with Born Again Psychos, I mean Christians. The film perfectly captures so many aspects of the religion and how the behavior of […]

The first time I watched Adaptation, I turned it off after 30 minutes because it started to become painful to watch. But since it came so highly recommended, I decided to give it a second chance tonight before I returned it to Netflix. Instead of doing my usual thing of playing a game and watching […]

I went to the Senator Theater to catch the pre-release of Troy with Jessie last night. I�ll miss my free movie tickets but at least now I’ll be able to afford them. As for the movie, well if I saw Brad Pitt topless one more time, I think I would have turned to the dark […]

Every time I read about shit like this I wish we could mount an appropriate response. If they kill American, we should respond with killing a proportional amount of Iraqis from the same town. I believe Gabriel from Swordfish said it best:
“They bomb a church, we bomb 10. They hijack a plane, we take out […]

I got Once Upon a Time in Mexico from Netflix today so I’ve finally had a chance to see the movie about Jackie’s homeland. I’m a huge fan of Desperado so this film had a lot to live up to but it didn’t disappoint. Continuing the universe started by El Mariachi, the movie started by […]

I know I’m a fan of romantic sap movies but every once in a while, there is one that exceeds my expectations and crosses the line and becomes a great movie in general. I went to see The Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind at Muvico with Megan and Rachael today. The main reason why […]

I’ve been meaning to do a real update for a while now but I haven’t had a chance to until now. Let’s see what happened this week, on Tuesday Jessie and I went to DuClaw and to see Dawn of the Dead. The beer was good but the movie was just your typical horror flick […]

By the way, major props to the movie for using This Years Love by David Grey.

I just got back from going to happy hour at Chevy’s and seeing The Girl Next Door at Muvico. I don’t normally get Bud but with the amount of money I’ve been spending recently, I thought it would be a good idea to just get a glass of it for $1.50 instead of Sam Adams […]

So I was watching Kate and Leopold last night and I realized something really disturbing about the movie. In the present, Kate and Stuart used to date. In fact they dated for several years which means they had to of had sex. So then Stuart goes back in time and brings Leopold to the present […]

I went to UMBC today to sell back my political science book from last semester only to find out that the bastards won’t buy it. After being denied on getting some of my money back from the bookstore, I went to the cashiers office to pay the $100 graduation fee, aka dildo removal fee. Of […]

I went to see Chasing Liberty today with Jackie at the new movie theater they built next to Columbia Mall. The movie theater is pretty badass; they had real seats instead of the fold-up kind. I still haven’t made up my mind as to whether or not it beats Muvico.
Chasing Liberty was mostly what […]

I should be working on the 415 project but I had to make this quick update. Everyone check out item 5 on the list. I stole this from slashdot which was stolen from here

Stand up halfway through the movie and yell loudly, “Wait…where the hell is Harry Potter?”
Block the entrance to the theater while […]

Despite the fact that it’s embedded in flash, the trailer for Spiderman 2 looks badass. Looks like there will be a movie to look forward to after Return of the King.

I finally had some free time today and I watched the extended version of The Two Towers while studying some good old VLSI. As with Fellowship of the Ring, the extended version adds so much more to the film and fills in some holes for those who may not have read the books. I still […]

Well I went to see Matrix Revolutions at 10 AM yesterday and was among the first people to witness the disaster that ended what could have been a great movie trilogy. If you haven’t seen the movie already well I’ll try to make this as spoiler free as possible since I’ve ruined the movie for […]

The old couple have gone off to the city so I’ll have the apartment to myself for the next couple of days =). I finally watched Spirited Away after having it sit on my hard-drive for close to a year. I have to say that I’m dissapointed. After all the hype and reviews, it’s only […]
