Holy Crap! Everything Lame Is Cool Again.

Wow, haven't posted in a looooooooonnnnnnnnnnngggg time.
My one fan probably thinks I died.
But I remain adamant.
This blog will succeed where my others have failed.
So I have TWO whole reviews for you people.
"The Wackness" and "Appaloosa".
Both are on my top 10 list,
which you'll never see. Evah.
But which one is higher?
That's where the drama's coming from.
First up, The Wackness.
"I'm thinking of becoming a psychologist, coz everyone around me's so fucking crazy."
That pretty much sums up my life.
That's why I love this movie so much.
It taps into that special tiny place in my heart that tells me this dramedy isn't bullshit.
The only other movie to have landed there is Fight Club, which is excellent.
Josh Peck falls in love with Olivia Thirlby. Like most of mankind's early loves, the feeling's not mutual. This is upsetting and he has to be counselled by stoner Ben Kingsley, who actually gives decent advice. The movie simply wanders from witty aphorism to witty aphorism and I revelled in it. This one is reeeeeeaaaaaaaaaallllllllllyyyyyyy good. C'mon reviewers: Give better recommendations so I don't miss masterpieces like this.
Appaloosa is much slower. It's basically really boring until the end when the movie lunges for your brain, grabs it and makes you realize it was a good film.
It's weird and you kinda have to see it to believe it. I don't think I'm worthy to talk about it though. Oh, and Viggo Mortensen kicks mind ass.
Ok, that's it for reviewing stuff.
Over the weekend, if I have time, I'll write reviews of "City Of Ember", "Defiance", and "Inkheart."
Also, if I can get my friend Gina's ass off of Youtube, she'll post reviews of "Revolutionary Road" and "The Wrestler."
I decided she gets a guest spot on this blog coz she has a following, whereas I do not. She'll be reviewing all the Oscar bait abortion dramas and I'll review the cool stuff.
Of course, we'll both review insanely awesome coolness like "Watchmen" or "Star Trek". We're nerds like that.
