This movie, is easily one of my favorite movies of all time. And I saw it yesterday. It was phenomenal, the violence might have been over the top, but compared to other Quentin Tarentino movies, it wasn't actually that bad. You can tell a movie is good if you are thinking about it in the car ride home. Im still thinking about it now. The job of a movie is to entertain you, and extract emotions from you: laughter, sadness, horror. It did all of these things, and well. Just the idea of a group of Jewish guys slaughtering Nazi's is cool by itself, but when you add in the dramatic shots and music, with outstanding acting, you get a great movie. If I give actual examples of parts I liked, I might spoil the movie, so i'll hold back. It was very long, but the use of splitting the movie up into chapters made it seem shorter. I really loved this movie, and if you haven't seen it, stop reading this, and go see it. Right now. GO.
Is Awesome. Psych is Awesome. You might of heard of it, maybe not, but I really like it. If you haven't heard of it, ill give an ultra brief summary. Two guys, partners and buddies, help the cops solve crimes, one is kind of psychic, light hearted tone. USA at 10/9c and it reallly is great. The style is very similar to other USA shows, (shots, color, acting, directing, music) but that is no deterrent. I love the snappy one liners even if they are considered cheesy by some. The two main characters are played fantastically, and its just a great way to end the week. Definitly check it out if you have time.
So I just watched the Survivor Samoa premiere and I dont really have much to say. Only because its happened 21 times before this, so all of the seasons are starting to blend into one in my mind. I love survivor, but really, besides where they are (and honestly the surroundings always look exactly the same) whats changed? Theres the one scheming caniving guy, that stabs everyone in the back. Theres the law student. The doctor. The old guy. The old woman. The southern one. The heart-throb and the three ditsy girls that never make it past round 6 that follow the heart-throb around. And mark my word, this never changes. But I still watch, because... im addicted? Not really sure, but I do know that jeff Probst better shake things up this season. I mean isn't he getting bored? I guess you cant really get bored when you have enough money to buy an Island. Any way, watch it online, but i dont really think its worth watching on TV. Only reason to: Rumors say this MAY be the last season. Who knows? Jeff Probst. But still.
The Office premiere! I was so excited to watch this that I completely forgot to DVR survior, let alone watch it. This is probably my favorite show aside from 24, so when I say excited i really mean excited. So I sat down to watch the show, and I instantly started laughing. Im assuming you watch the office, or at least have seen one episode, if you haven't im not really sure what to say to you. But anyway, the little snippet at the beggining of each episode, that only has to do with the plot 50 % of the time, was hilarious this episode. SO funny! The episode was not as good. It was probably an 8 of 10, which is really good for normal standards, but since the office has set such a high bar for itself, an 8 is not great. There were definitly some laugh outloud moments, but it wasn't "Casino Night" funny, or "Beach Games" funny. It was good, just not great, if you missed it definitly check it out online. I hope this season takes it up a notch. I gotta go watch Survivor.
During one of the Us Open games, Serena Williams second serve was called a Foot Fault by one of the lineman. This put the game at match point, which apparently prompted Serena to lash out at the judge. You couldn't really make out what she was saying, but it had something to do with shoving the ball somewhere, and i'll leave it at that. Anyway, she was disqualified, leaving Kim Clijster the victor, making it impossible for Serena to keep her title. Im not saying I think this, but maybe she did this so that she could have an excuse for losing that didnt include skill, because keep in mind it was Match point against her. Thats no way to represent the Williams name, come on now. Heres the VIDEO
I just watched the clip of Kanye West doing one of the most dbaggish things one could do. If you haven't heard, he went on stage during Taylor Swifts acceptance speech, stole the microphone, and said: "Yo Talyor, Im really happy fo you, ima let you finish...But Beyonce had one of the best videos of ALL TIME!...one of the best videos of all time" He then shrugged and walked off stage like the boos coming from the crowd didn't affect him. Really Kanye? Was it neccesary? At all? I mean, they had a shot of Beyonces reaction, even she looked shocked at the douchiness of this move. We all know who you, are, you dont have to pull any stunts. But really? I mean i'm still going to listen to your music because...its really good, but...really? Wow.

A let down. Definitely a let down. It wasn't horrible, but I was looking forward to a totally awesome movie. This was not totally awesome, in fact I'm not even sure id give it an awesome to begin with. Sure, the action was cool, and the whole idea of aliens living in slums and everything was cool. But i really wasn't too crazy about the plot. Something about it felt like halfway through the movie the the the writer(s) just stopped trying. There were also some stereotypes that ticked me off, but I wont talk about them. I was really pumped up for this movie, so anything other than amazing was going to disappoint me. HOWEVER, I saw this movie with a friend, and he loved it, he said it was the best movie he has seen this summer, and I have heard many other people say the same thing, so If you were thinking of seeing this movie, don't let what Im saying keep you from it. I guess it just wasn't my thing. Maybe District 10 will be better?
I haven't posted anything in a while, mainly because there isn't much on TV over the Summer, but I also have been away, but now that the Fall TV schedule is starting up, I will be posting more. Fall is great for TV, it is the start of a lot of new shows, making their premiers, Glee, or Community, for example. Then there are the returning favorites, like House, Heroes, and 90210. I personally am excited for the return of The Office on September 17, but really, i'm just excited for the return of TV in general. Oh TV, I missed you so.
