That title has nothing to do with what's in this post; it's just one of my favourite quotes from That '70s Show and I thought would grab people's attention. 

So, I thought I'd start it out with my thoughts what I'm reading/watching/listening to for anyone who cares:

DUUUUUUUUDE! 

Sorry, but like three people on my friends list had some kind of exclamation, so I thought I'd add.

Anyway, my story for the Met was a review of the Science of Sleep DVD. 

Review here!

So, here's my last college newspaper story for the term. Kind of weird. I'm also really disappointed, because a couple of weeks ago our campus hosted the Starz Denver Film Festival, and I got a chance to see this really good movie called "The Sensation of Sight" months before it's release (it was the world premier) and wrote a story about it. What was really cool is the director was there, and all the actors which included David Strathairn (the bad ass guy who should've won the Best Actor Oscar for Good Night, and Good Luck) and since I'm such a big "Lost" fan, Ian Somerhalder (Boone, for you Losties!). I got to talk to Ian for a few minutes, and he was super nice, and I met David, and he was very polite. Sadly, our newspaper website crashed that week, so I couldn't post the story. Anyway, I met Boone! Pretty excited. So, here's my last story for a spell. Enjoy.

Stephen King's latest book

Here's this week's newspaper story I wrote!

49 Up!

Ah, the wonderful day that is pay day. Of course, I go out and splurge on stuff I don't need, but that's not the point. The point is, it's fun. So here's a list of my pay day purchases:

DVD
   First Knight - I'm a huge King Arthur fan and I saw this for the first time the other day. I really dug this version, which leaves all the magic and that stuff out, and just focuses on the characters. Very good. 
   To Kill A Mockingbird - one of the great films ever, and it's hard to top Gregory Peck's performance.
   Roman Holiday - I owe wieimmer for this one. I love this movie, but had forgotten about it, until she reminded me with one of her icons. I want a girlfriend like Audrey Hepburn so bad (please don't remind me of the odds of finding one though - I know they're slim). Still, great flick.
CD
   Field of Dreams Soundtrack - One of my favorite movies, and the music is just gorgeous. Really sticks with you.
   Sufjan Stevens - The Avalanche - This crazy guy who wants to do an album based around all 50 states. he's already done Michigan and did Illinois last year, and this is a bunch of b-sides from that album. He's absolutely insane, but it's great music. 

So for anyone who cares, that's how I spent a portion of my check. Woot for pay day!

So I just finished watching AFI's 100 Most Inspirational Films (I'm a big movie buff, so I dig that sort of stuff) and I was both happy and sad with the list. I mean, I was disappointed that none of the LOTR films made the cut - although "Babe" was on there - and "Forrest Gump" was way up there in the 30's when it should have been nearer to the top 10, if not in it. But, most of the stuff I would have wanted was there, even if I disagree with the order: "Casablanca," "Schindler's List," "Saving Private Ryan," "Mr. Smith Goes to Washington," and "To Kill a Mockingbird" - althought I thought "Mokingbird," should have been number 1 instead of "It's A Wonderful Life," as good as it is - but that's me. Anyway, just a minor rant about it.
