Anyway. My suggestion for shotgun would be
The Worlds Fastest Indian.....



I've had that in my Netflix queue for a while. I keep looking at it, but I end up watching something else. I'll try to check it out. Thanks...



I really love that filmB|B|

OK, it's after the weekend, but we just saw Precious. It was awesome -- we thought we'd girded ourselves for something depressing but good, but it just wasn't generally depressing. There were depressing parts in it, but overall it was about strength, and not weakness. It was every bit as good as everyone said.

Crazy Heart



OK, I watched this tonight. It was good. It had some pretty scenery, and I really enjoyed the music...

And Bridges was a pretty convincing alcoholic.



Yeah, the music took that movie from a B to an A in my book. We knew Jeff Bridges could sing but Colin Farrell surprised me too!

I haven't seen the movie yet, but I read the book that it was based on, and it was very good. I read it on a plane and was having to fight back tears at a couple of places, but it definitely left me feeling more inspired than depressed. I'd like to see the movie too.

Not sure if anybody has mentioned it, but Simon Birch is a wonderful movie:$ And also, Meet Joe Black is one of my favorites as well.

And for the record: the appropriate ranking of cool modes of transportation is jet pack, hover board, transporter, Batmobile, and THEN giant ant.

The Apartment



I finally got around to watching this. Actually, I watched it twice. It's a really good movie regarding the writing, directing, acting, etc., and I found the story idea to be interesting. But, for a drama, I found myself emotionally detached from it. Not sure why; maybe I just didn't relate to the characters or something.

Dark City is a very underrated film (IMO). Very "Film Noir" in appearance. Twisty and weird.
It got great reviews, but next to no "box office". I went to see it and we were the only 2 in the whole theatre.

I, obviously, find it to be an interesting film.

It takes that early '60s playboy thing and turns it on its ear. I could discuss that film for hours.
