I won't be around much for a bit.

Right now I've been getting crazily good summer hours, going to friends parties and I'm just becoming exhausted, so if I don't comment on your blogs don't think Im being stuck up.

"When Theres No Way Out..

the only way out was to give in".

Yesterday me and a bunch of friends (5) were really bored and decided to go strawberry picking just for fun because we use to do that all the time like 4-5 years ago. Theres a bus that picks you up at the bottom of my hill and the ride is an 1 and a half. When I got there I couldn't figure out how when I was 13 I could pick 10 flats (120) boxes , it was taking me hours just to pick one. I ended up just saying screw it before I finished it and started watching stuff on my ipod and eating berrys in the middle of the field This made the guy quite dissapointed, he told me if I wasn't going to be more seriousI would have to leave forever and I just said I'm probably never coming back this place is pretty much torture (i said in a joking manner). i CANT WAIT TO RECIEVE MY 5 DOLLAR CHECK IN 2 WEEKS :p

I watched two movies in the last few days...

Paranoid Park

I saw the trailer for this movie a few mounths back when it was in theatres and I just thought it looked OK and I probably wouldm't ever watch it. But the other day I found it on a mininova and just figured o what the hell. This movie was OK just like I thought Gus Van Sant (Good will hunting, drugstore cowboy) tried a little to hard trying to make it for teenagers by putting a lot of skateboarding in it. ************SPOLIER******************one thing I didnt understand was the murder was never even solved, they didn't even finish the story. There better not be a sequel.

6/10

Trainspotting

Ugh I was hoping on a Requiem Fotr a dram, but It didn't happen. This movie wasn't too bad though just wasn't anything more then "Spun" and spun doesn't get as much credit at all.

Heres a repost of my top ten films:

10. Almost Famous

9. Requiem For A Dream

8. Dazed and Confused

7, American Beauty

6. American History X

5. City Of God

4. Fight Club

3. One Flew Over The Cuckoos Nest

2. Fargo

1. Donnie Darko

Almost made it: Goodfellas, saving private ryan, batman begins, clerks 1 and 2, jay and silent bob strike back, and many more I'm gonna do a top 100 sometime next week.

Could Everybody Answer This Question??

There is a show that is filmed about ten minutes away from where I live; its called "Trailer Park Boys" I was wondering if any of you ever watched it/heard of it before? I just want to find out who knows about this show and if its known about outside of Canada. It's an awesome fake documentary type of show. But be warned Language May Offend Its on the interent everywhere just start from season 1. And if you saw the movie and idn't like it, ignore it because the movie was terrible and everything after the movie sucked to.

Two Movies I Recently Watched

Last night and today I watched 2 movies I havn't seen before.

Charlie Bartlett

This sweet poster is what made me give it a watch. After watching this film I was quite happy with what it was so I headed over to a few sites to see what others thought....and people are calling this the worst movie ever??? I don't understand that. Just give this movie a watch, its not perfect but its not bad either.

score: 7.5/10

Hard Candy:

I'm actually quite embarrassed to say that I didn't even know Ellan Paige was in this when I started it up. (considering she grew up in my town) Well this movie was just Sick and disturbing I don't know why EP did this role. The movie was Ok but at times I felt like shutting it off. I'd just avoid this one. Come on I really don't wanna watch a younger EP cut someones balls out !!!!!!!!

Score: 5/10

Thats all I got.

Ok, I have never ever seen an episode of a t.v show that effected me like this one did, this episode came so close to bringing tears to my eyes. The directing was just incredible, the scene when Claire came out of the house all burnet up was just incredible, the story-line was inter sting a nd depressing. This is just what I call a perfect episode ten out of ten, one hundred percent.Also the cast did a VERY well job. Dang I can't get over this episode. After watching it for the first time last night I hoped it was atleast top 3 episodes here but instead its the top episode. Im gonna watch it again tommorow. sorry this review wasn't the best Im very tired.

Undergrads

Avg Score: 8.75    Total Ratings: 19    Total Reviews: 2
Nitz gets fat After having just seen the last episode for the first season (perhaps the last ever) I realize what a great show Undergrads truly is. The characters are so rich and entertaining that you find yourself laughing at their antics but also seeing a little bit of you and your friends in each of them. This makes for a rewarding experience in television viewing.

The story focuses on four friends (members of The Clique) Nitz, Cal, Rocko, and Gimpy who all attend different colleges in the same town, they've been friends since birth and nothing is going to change that now. Each of the characters fits a stereotype but also breaks it. Nitz is the nice quite nerdy guy that always feels a constant embarrassment towards the friends he has but also a great bit of love towards. Rocko is the tough guy that basically excels at being an ass, especially to Cal who truly steals the show as the quiet annoying yet good looking babe magnet...its Cal that comes in with the great lines that cause you to burst into laughter "Sorry guy time for my late afternoon sex". Another true gem in the show is Gimpy the shut in from Techerson Tech college, he barely ever leaves his room and lives his life according to Star Wars.

Nitz is constantly the folly of his friend's exploits but also of his own lust for Kimmy Burton, the girl that he's had a crush on for four years. The season truly comes full circle at the end.

The secondary characters also bring out the best in Undergrads, from wise ass Jesse to movie talking Brodie and the $@%@ing trash talker Kruger, the show's writers truly display their abilities of interpreting real life into an animated sitcom. I see everyone of these characters in every day life and truly hope to see the show continue next year..so please MTV execs listen to my call...as well as the call of many fans..keep Undergrads on the air. haha

8.9 Great
Bones
Pilot
Avg Score: 8.72    Total Ratings: 750    Total Reviews: 68
This was the first episode I saw I forget alot about it so his show is excellent. A little dark and spooky but it and House beat the hell out of those useless reality shows.

Bones and House show that Hollywood has decided to think and produce quality TV again.

Bones has a future.

It makes you think and wonder about what happens out there in the real world. Only thing is I wish Bones and House were still on same night.

Made for one great evening of REAL TV. I wish they'd shown more of Bones this summer even if they had to only show one House per week. Emily is truly a good actress. The entire cast of Bones work well together. I cannot wait for the new season of Bones. Yes watch
