3 Throws, 3 Bulls!


Awesome! Posted by Hello
This is the second best moment of my life (the best was when I got one dart stuck in the back of the other, sweet).

Trailers

Here are some good trailers to check out.

funny shit: Stephen Tobolowsky's Birthday Party
-by the way, I did know who he was before this trailer. He's the star of Memento and Groundhog day.

Rob Schneider goodness with some midget action.

Layer Cake - might be funny (British style)

Bout time for some new Wallace and Gromit

Go Crusades, this better be good and not just Gladiator 2

Definitely a different look to a movie for A Scanner Darkly

Go Big Ten

Congratulations to the Badgers for making the elite eight. So much for the Big Ten being a "weak conference", two teams in the Final Four and three in the elite. Not too bad for a conference that has gotten nothing but shit from the national media all year.

Movie Reviews

Hope everyone had a good Easter.

Here are some reviews of movies I have seen lately. Hostage was not a terrible movie. It kept moving along and didn't completley bottom out at any one time. The storyline is a bit thin, but if you are a Bruce Willis fan it is easy to get caught up in. It was good to see Bruce looking cool again. He has been virtually non existant for the last few years (Hopefully his upcoming movie Sin City won't be another Robert Rodriguez crapfest. Tarrentino should help everyone out at least.) Robots was decent. It is absolutely no match for and Pixar movie, but it had its moments. Most shocking was their ability to capture just a bit of Robin Williams zanyness in the animatd character. Kudos to Fox animators on that one. The trailer, or rather short film for Ice Age 2 on the front of Robots was better than the movie. The new Star Wars trailer is also on the front of that movie. The trailer looks good, but let me remind you, the trailers looked good for episodes 1 and 2, and we all know how those ended up. Constantine was a semi-decent movie as well. If you are a religious zealot, I suggest staying home, but for everyone else the movie should at least hold attention. Some of my friends think it is the best movie to come out just about ever, but I think it was the most enjoyable movie of the new year. Granted, this year has been almost complete crap thus far. There still has been nothing to rival last year at all, but that is what the first 4 months of the year are for I guess.

Interpol

Saw Interpol at the Rave on Sunday night, great show. Q and Not U was really good. The end of their set was kind of gay, but they were forced to play extra because Interpol wasn't ready. Interpol took over though and rocked the house. The Rave is still a little shitty, but if the band is good enough, the venue doesn't matter. It really fucking sucks when you have to pay $40 to get a nice buzz going. I just said fuck it. Dowling and Mojew just hung out by the bar and drank themselves broke.

Interpol played Take You On A Cruise, so I was happy. I hear they cut Obstacle 1 for time reasons or some shit like that, but they got a lot of good shit in there (i.e. Evil, Narc, Lief) They ended huge on Roland.
