Only my 3rd day of classes and already I had deal with a Hostage Situation/Bomb Threat near me. Yes, I am talking about the Discovery Building situation. Streets nearby my work and my college got closed down due to the threat.

It's kinda surreal. Cops and reporters everywhere and people being diverted like a herd to different streets. Our buses stopped running there and there was only one way to reach the train system.

Watching the EMMYS. Very happy that JIM PARSONS (The Big Bang Theory) and AARON PAUL (Breaking Bad) won their respective emmys.
Crappy part about heading down to see Animal Kingdom yesterday was running into some litters of the Tea Partiers in Downtown DC. The theater I saw the film at is not too far away from the nation mall, where Glenn Beck's rally took place at saturday. Their clothes were a dead giveaway, wearing the flag as hard as they could. Also didn't help I was on the receiving end of a dirty stare or 2.

I just saw this film earlier today and I really enjoyed it thoroughly. It finally released in D.C. last week. The story seems fairly ho-hum when you read the plot synopsis but it's comes off much deeper and darker in the actual film, with the performances and direction really elevating the material. James Frecheville and Ben Mendolsohn are the major stars of the film, with them receiving the majority of screen time. Mendolsohn in particular, had my favorite performance of the ensemble. But that said, the rest of the cast have a major presence too, including Guy Pearce and Jacki Weaver. The film runs at a steady pace with no lulls within. The story is fascinating in witnessing this family struggle to stay together, in what's essentially their twilight years of being in power, which is a key fact in the story. Frecheville's "J" is the center of the film as we see his entrance into the inner circle of this destructive family. Some criticized his Frecheville's performance as too dry dull but his character is meant to be dry and a bit dull. He's the young, immature kid walking into a hornet's nest. His emotions are still developing and remains confused at a number of moments when he's granted a moment of power or witnesses an act, and similarly, when his family pulls away a desire of his. His emotions are key to the film and slowly develop together by...[more]...
YES!
I'm so happy you enjoyed it, man! I saw ANIMAL KINGDOM at the L.A. Film Fest back in June, and I loved it. One of my favorite films of 2010, so far. I will see it again once it expands further.
Saw ANIMAL KINGDOM earlier today and it was fantastic. Really, really good film with a great characters & performances. Ben Mendolsohn had my favorite performance of the bunch.
heading out to see ANIMAL KINGDOM right now. Less than an hour from now. Really excited.
I just got really nostalgic. I shuffled around random stuff in my room and found my old GAME BOY POCKET. I got it and 1996 and poured hours into that thing. I turned it on and still works just as well as it did back in 96! Along with my old copy of SUPER MARIO LAND still inside!
That is freaking awesome. While moving some shit from my mom's I found my brothers old Sega Game Gear, not sure if it still works or not, do remember that fucker needing like 6 or 8 AA batteries though.
This was particularly big for me since this GBP was the 1st gaming system I EVER owned on my own. My brother was always the one getting the big consoles, like the Genesis and N64. This one was purely mine. I should add it's a special gold edition Toys R Us carried when they released it.
How many of you guys get ticked off when a movie takes place in your city and you can see they completely mangled the geography of it? A resident of Washington, D.C., I've noticed this shit a few times. The worst case being "Enemy of the State" By that movie's geography, Will Smith was teleporting around D.C.
You said it riddle. I'm from Virginia, and I feel like every character in a movie from Virginia has a thick ass southern accent. We don't all sound like Larry The Cable Guy.
I feel the same way when they film things in Chicago. I think in the Matrix they actually used two streets that are parallel as an intersection...NO dammit!
I should add that even though I love 24 and enjoyed Season 7 (which took place in DC). They mixed up shots of stuff shot in DC with stuff not in DC. A big even happens by around the middle in area nowhere to be seen in DC. Not to mention the way Jack Bauer travels around DC is impossibly fast. We have some horrible traffic.
Oh shit! I just found out ANIMAL KINGDOM is finally playing in theaters in my area this weekend. I will definitely try to see it. Especially since classes are going to begin for me this coming monday.
about to watch SHADOW OF THE VAMPIRE (Starring John Malkovich and Willem Dafoe)
Just finished it. That was pretty damn good. I got an Inglourious Basterds vibe from it. I think you know what I mean.
Such an unusuallly funny and genuinley creepy movie. Dafoe got an Oscar Nom for this. The director E. Elias Merhige also directed the devestatingly underrated 2004 thriller SUSPECT ZERO. Rent it.












That's crazy. I can only imagine how insane it must be.
