The mindless rantings of a filmaholic.
Off to an interesting start!

Today, we talk about Superbowl and Survivor.

Superbowl was boring. I can't watch football on TV, especially American football. The game is just too damn slow. Challenges, more penalties than there are rules, and mindless dribble. I knew it was downhill right from the beginning, "This is the last and biggest game of the season, and is also the most anticipated." No shit. The commercials were alright. Budweiser, as always, came through in glowing fashion, and The Alamo trailer was ok. I also think Sam Jackson should stick to movies. His narration seemed to fail the Gibbons' test.

Survivor, on the other hand, rocked my fucking socks off! Hatch has got one of those grins that make you laugh! Rudy as always delivered as promised (don't drink the water now). Sue is still an idiot, but Jenna has become whiny. What happened? Ah well, she said Saboga, I got 10 points. It's all good. I really want to punch Italian Rob, and I really feel bad for Rupert, such a nice man. I can't wait til thursday!!!!!

Today, however, I spent most of my time studying for my bar exam until I found out that it was cancelled. I don't know why. So I watch trailers. LOADS AND LOADS OF TRAILERS!!!!! There are too many to comment on. I've watched about 20 so far, and there are still another 40. I think I should cryogenically freeze myself until each movie comes out. The Passion of Christ, Alien vs. Predator, DAWN OF THE DEAD!!!!! Oh my lord I want to see that movie. It's been a while since I've seen a good zombie flick. 28 Days Later was an amazing movie, but there weren't enough zombies. Hopefully this will satisfy my hunger. I hope The Punisher is good. The old one with Dolph was ok for an 80's flick, but it was too dark to see anything, and the script was weak sauce.

It's only after watching all these trailers, that I've realized just how much I love them. Every trailer is worthwhile. It's either exciting or intense and gives you that feeling where you need to see that movie or else implosion will occur, or it summarizes those bad movies, so that you don't have to see them. Some use action to sell, and some use mystery. I prefer the mysterious trailers, like Spielberg/Kubrick's AI, when I saw that trailer I didn't know what the hell the movie was about. Just some 6 year old kid, who's love was real, and that he had blue eyes. With 20 trailers down and 40 to go, I had better get back at it.
