I didn’t even have to watch Vanilla Sky to have another “purpose of existence” mind-melt today. Every time I sit down and think about this movie, I always end up asking myself the same bloody question over and over. “How do I know there isn’t some David Aames in Tokyo, and I’m not just part of his complex, multi-layered lucid dream?” For those of you out there who think I’m a nut, I am. Good for you! You get a cookie! Ultimately, this is my desired end result of a movie. I want to be able to kee...
Of all the no-good dirty tricks to pull! During Christmas even! How could God disappoint me so by making 1984 such a poorly made crap-festival. 3 weeks of downloading. Searching for users, leaving the computer on all night in hopes of a connection being made, and it has led me to shit town. I’m sure I’m just over-reacting. This isn’t happening. How is this movie this bad? John, I’ve heard so many good things about you, but why? Why’d you have to hit on Sofia? I mean Julia. I have come to the b...
YES OH YES OH YES!!!!! I'M BACK IN! Phew!!!!!! Last night, I decided to look at some of the other blogs on joeuser, but I was doomed from the first click. Apparently, you can’t see your own site in the listings. I’m very competitive in nature, as Tink will surely vouch, and I want to know where I am in the standings. So I decided to log out, look it up and log back in. What I didn’t realize, was that all this time my computer has been logging in automatically for me since it saved my passwor...
Even though Thursday night, was a night of immense cramming, I still “found” time to watch the new Survivor piece of crap spinoff. Oooo Mark Burnett put his name on it. Now first things first, I have never really been a Survivor fan. I watched the first one, just like everyone else, and, loved it, just like everyone else. But around halfway through the second one, I started getting bored with the whole thing. I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again, “I swear I’ve got ADD, I just can’t bring mysel...
Once the pure evil of kinesiology was over, which went quite well by the way simply because my teacher didn't feel like teaching for the rest of the class, the weekend was my opportunity for...some Steve time. I was also going to take this opportunity to finish all outstanding schoolwork before the weight of exams arrived, and to submit my university application. The former was accomplished. The rest, not so much. I'm considering, moving the intimidating stack of university brochures from the d...
These are the films that I watched in July, and only July, with the exception of maybe SWAT and Freddy vs. Jason. They are also in chronological order. I would also like to note that I saw all of these films for the first time. I can't even wrap my mind around how long it would be if I included all the reruns on late night or my tapes. 28 Days Later K-Pax Eight Legged Freaks Crazy Moon Clutch Country Bears, The Halloween: Resurrection (Now I’ve seen them all) Joe Somebody New Guy,...
Well from what i can muster, it seems Riddick has been on the run for the past five years, avoiding bounty hunters, and the law. He now finds himself trapped in a war between Lord Marshal (Colm Feore) of the Necromongers, a society that is bent on destroying all humans, and a race of "Elementals." Riddick finds Kyra (Thandie Newton) a friend from the past, who I'm sure will become more than a friend, and he tries to break the two of them out of a subterranean prison. It sounds like ...
A Guy Thing is a hollywood movie. Get a bunch of up and coming actors, make it funny and you get some bucks. In this case, you have Julia Stiles, Jason Lee and Selma Blair involved in a plot surrounding Jason Lee. Lee is getting married to Blair, but the morning after his bacholor party, he wakes up next to Stiles. He then finds out that Stiles and Blair are cousins, and mayhem ensues. It's a harmless comedy, delivering a few laughs. There's not really much to this movie. The concept has b...
Damn Leo. Damn him good. Ever since Titanic came out, I have not liked Leonardo Dicaprio. Every magazine was plastered with his face, and every girl was “In Love with Leo.” So where does that leave me. Damn you Leo. I damn you now, because I’m starting to like you. Catch Me if You Can was a great movie, as it chronicled the life of Frank Aganale Jr., one of the greatest check fraudsters in history. It also tells the story of his parents divorce and his relationship with Carl ...
Well it is currently 3am. I have not yet read the short story for my English Lit exam, but who cares there's plenty of time! It can wait til....when? MONDAY?!?! Fuck beans. Fuck them right in the ear. So little to do, so much time. Wait. Strike that. Reverse it. If only I knew what I was doing up at this ungodly hour, then maybe my head wouldn't hurt. I need some Velarian root, or if I can get my hands on them, Red and Blue Tuinals, Lipstick Red Seconals. After paying $18.00 for a regular $...
This just in, 3 days ago. Famous Player’s Toronto Paramount theatre is the top-ranking theatre in North America for Return of the King. Paramount has also set a new box office record, reaching $50 million in only 33 days, faster than any Canadian theatre ever. In light of this news, New Line Cinemas, in association with Alliance Atlantis, have decided to create a documentary of the phenomenon that is the LOTR: Trilogy and it’s relations with Canadian theatre. From what we has been leaked out, th...
When i say we forgot, I actually meant we were busy. And when I say we, I mean me.Well wait no more, it is time. Bone Daddy and the Fourth Reich is a blaxploitation film, interspersed with many, sometimes subtle, references, to the world of Matthew Brown, the director, writer, producer, actor, and omnipotent overseer. Released through IBP, Infinetely Brown Productions, it is the latest film that I have become obsessed about. The Wall is crumbling, and a giant afro is emerging from the rubble....
After battling with JoeUser last night for 2 teeth-grinding hours, trying to post a link to my little joke, (which lost all of it’s spontaneity and excitement after 10 minutes of watching that damn “barber shop” upload meter spin around and around), I found solace in frowning at my monitor, and flippin’ the bird right before I shut her down. Today, it was obvious she just needed a nap. I’ve almost downloaded “The Alien Costume Part 1", completing the 3-part episode of Spiderman TAS, that I’ve be...
I decided that it was not fitting to include this mention with the other videos. If you have Kazaa, you must download a file called Pink Floyd - Echoes with 2001: A Space Odyssey SCARY.mpeg its about 245 megs. But every sweet, sweet pixel is worth it!!! The music cues up so well, it is quite disturbing. Now this might just be me. I happen to love 2001, with all it's hidden messages and nuances, and think HAL is one of the best villians in movie history. Now if you have not seen the movie, this m...
It's That Time Again! On a weird note: Why did this article make me want to post this ?
