  1. Special guest ring announcer: R. Lee Emery. Also: I can't mark, because I'm going to be working all day/hungover from prom parties. Apologies!
  2. Some matches just don't need to be obnoxiously long. Sidenote, I remember Grand Slam picking a 3.5k ICTV title defense I wrote over a 5k (limit) match Ejiro wrote. I don't remember if it was actually better or not, but that was awfully surprising.
  3. More
  4. I was at Best Buy picking up a gift and found this tremendous buy one get one free for $17.99 2-disc special editions. Great stuff, including East of Eden, JFK, Magnolia, Se7en, and Space Jam. Anyway, I ended up getting Boogie Nights and Unforgiven.
  5. Hey, I remember those ads.
  6. "High School Musical" was a movie that can pick you up and make you "dance". The songs were great especially "Get your head in the game". With some dance moves, the movie also added great humor,"love",and for those jocks out there BASKETBALL! The actors rocked the stage and just made the movie a teen can watch and who knows maybe one or two can relate to "Troy"(Zac Efron),"Gabriella"(Vannesa Anne Hudgens),or even "Sharpay"(Ashley Tisdale). Disney has proved itself once again as the movie magnet! Like other movies "Right on Track", "Go Figure", "High School Musical" is a great movie which you can sit with family or with friends and enjoy and you never know when you might be singing along!

    Pop/Punk

    Absolutely. I love Fall Out Boy and their hilariously long track titles, it truly is brilliant! And "Of All the Gin Joints in All the World" is from a famous movie! My favorite track is a traditional toss-up though, it changes hourly between "Dance, Dance" and "Sugar, We're Goin' Down." I also listen to The Click Five and AAR, but nothing tops Fall Out Boy!
  8. The director's cut is really no different. There's one completely new scene which builds more on Phillipe's attempt to not be racist. He's in the police locker room, sits on a bench next to a black guy and (in a forced manner) asks "How's it going?" The black guy stares at him and walks away. Besides that there's some extended dialogue (the only one that comes to mind is between the Asian guy and his wife in the hospital, the wife mentions her accident) and as Haggis calls it, some time for the scenes to "breathe," but not much else. I think there's a grand total of four extra minutes on the DC. I just bought it because I held off buying the original, figuring an awards edition would be out.
  9. First, I really liked Crash, but felt Capote and Good Night, and Good Luck. were better (and as far as non-Academy nominated films go, The Squid and the Whale and A History of Violence). Second, I was waiting for this topic to come up. The message isn't simply that "racism is bad." That's skimming the surface, really. The real message comes from the Matt Dillon line, no matter how cliche it is: "You think you know who you are...you have no idea." People may have a sense of who they are, but their true personalities aren't revealed until certain circumstances come up. Graham Waters puts his job before everything, but even he has to compromise his morals and frame a potentially innocent man to protect his brother. Ryan Phillipe tries so hard to exude a color-friendly personality, but at the right moment his racist instincts kick in and he pays for it. On Brendan Fraser: I never liked him until Scrubs.
  10. and The University of Virginia it is. Huzzah!
  11. Yeah, the unrated is disappointing. The only addition I liked was the Gandhi scene.
  12. I really like it, but as Bob said, the ending was pretty bad and cliche. What was a little annoying was I think it tried too hard to stand out. Example: plaque on the ceiling. But the Ark scene is one of my favorites in recent memory.
  13. STARES INTO YOUR SOUL
  14. Whoa, this was the greatest. Thanks, Mole.
  15. Seconded. "Mr. President I don't like you, you don't know how to rock-uh!"
  16. Man, fuck you, J! SeƱor Smoke for best album of 2006.
  17. The Afghan Whigs, 1965: 66 Citi Soleil John the Baptist
  18. On that list, I want to see Lucky Number Slevin and Thank You For Smoking, but that's about it.
  19. Shouldn't it be Matt "Beowulf" Myers, or would that be too easy.
  20. Yeah I mean it didn't have any relevance then and doesn't have relevance now and that Marrow guy just talked and talked for an hour and a half BORING!
  21. Passover comes early, as Fury and Manson get until 11:30 since I'll be out for the game until then.
  22. Yeah, I just bought Seasons 1 & 2 and went through them pretty quickly. My favorites include: "My Old Lady" "My Occurrence" "His Story" "My T.C.W." "My Interpretation" Now to wait for May 9th for Season 3 and "My Screw Up."
  23. I've been enjoying this season. Highlights so far have been "My Way Home" (Wizard of Oz) and "My Five Stages" (the grief counselor). I hate Keith, but then again I hate all of Eliot's boyfriends. The Todd never gets old. From last week: The Janitor hurdling and J.D.'s "Abort the babies!" line were awesome. Also, nbc.com/Scrubs is having a "Name Carla and Turk's baby!" contest. I hope they like Ottoman Turk.
  24. Pssh, I wish. The closest thing to "retro" here is one of the six-screen theaters showing Crash.
