  1. I thought The Usual Suspects was a fantastic ending with a good movie around it. Justin
  2. We've watched, even on the internet as you've grown from a good kid, into a good man

  3. The Black Dahlia. It has it's moments but somehow I just did not really get this. I never really felt conected with the characters. DePalma is in top form the script just seemed to lack heart. 3 out of 5. A Scanner Darkly. Great stuff. An intelligent adaptation which doesn't just pluck an idea from the novel and go somewhere diffrent (pretty much any of the other PKD movies.) Performances are great. 4 out of 5. The Mosquito Coast. An interesting film that deals with some powerful concepts. Harrison Ford is surprisingly good. Some of the hostility from Rev Spellgood is a little far fetched. 4 out of 5. The Last Temptation Of Christ. The most thought provoking film I've seen in probably 6 months. For some reason I grew up thinking this movie was about Jesus banging Mary and then dies somewhere in India. While a lot of it's plot takes quite a few liberties from the gospels I think it's strength is that it's the only film version of the gospel where I actually believe that Jesus is a human being. To me, no matter if your are Christian or otherwise this is much more powerful. Jesus actually being human with all of our doubts and fears and yet somehow still managed to go through with crucifixtion just enhances and makes me appreciate the story all the more. I'm willing to forgive it's other flaws just for that. 5 out of 5. Justin
  4. I concur. The Generations and First Contact commentary are fantastic. Justin - Who wishes the shows had commentary.
  5. I think we're getting off topic here. Joe, what were you saying? Justin
  6. Waiting... A great comedy. One of the funniest movies I've seen. 4/5. Justin
  7. The cheerleader story kind of lost steam though. I find the whole "be my friend again" theme to be kind of annoying. Ditch the nerd! Justin
  8. Wasn't The Good Shepherd released in '06? Where the heck is it? Justin
  9. Great episode. I think Niki's character is more interesting now. My favorite character is the father. Justin
  10. Anyone else half-read books? You start a book and are really into it but somehow you lose interest and just stop? I have probably a dozen half-books I need to finish. I'm trying to solve the problem by just reading a chapter a day that way my enthusiasm doesn't just flame out. A few half-books I've read... Starship Troopers - Robert A. Heinlein The Alien Years - Robert Silverberg Catch 22 - Joseph Heller Contact - Carl Sagan Carpe Jugulem - Terry Pratchett Justin - Who hates doing that...
  11. My favorite film was The Departed. The best film of the year would be a tie between The Departed, The Good Shepherd, and The Prestige. Justin
  12. The book is written in a rather unique way too. Very hard to get into. Justin
