Just saw 'Green Zone', and it was awesome, but it makes you wonder how close to the truth it could be ...
Did they ever find WMD in Iraq,i enjoyed the film but hey this film didn't tell us anything we didn't know.I'm trying to work out why your wondering about.
It is a fictionalized version of history, but the story filled in a lot of unanswered gaps. It could have gone down exactly like this movie, and we wouldn't know.
In reality there is just tons of speculation, have we found WMD's? No. Does that mean beyond a shadow of a doubt that Iraq had none, not even close. Regardless of what we now know and any b.s. politics aside it was a topical story that had a powerful message that should be heeded.
Thats all that I am saying, this movie felt so true it makes you wonder exactly how it all went down.

This is in response to Joblo's "Boom Goes the Dynamite." Sportscaster.
Sorry about it not being embedded, couldn't find it on Youtube.
Lol! this guy's apparent enthusiasm for hardship/oppression and suffering by the masses would have been an ideal spokesman for Hitler's Nazi regime years ago.....oh people.
I just got tickets to see Conan O'Brien's new comedy tour in Spokane Washington on April 16th! Today is sure looking up!

This is a scene from my favorite musical, "It's Always Fair Weather", closely followed by "Singing in the Rain" and of course the original "The Producers".
When you think of the golden age of musicals a few men come to mind, but I think it is safe to say that after this serious display of skill (Gets really good around the 2:20 mark) Gene Kelly dared anybody to do better.
The most remarkable thing about this scene is it is essentially done in one take, and from all accounts he wasn't using any trick skates or anything. The guy was tap dancing on FREAK'N ROLLERSKATES!!!
Please allow that to sink in ... and enjoy.
Anytime TCM does a marathon of his films, of which their are many greats, my life goes on hold. Truly legendary.
Just pre-ordered the Yojimbo/Sanjuro Criterion Blurays on Amazon. March 28th can't get here fast enough!
Its Y2K for the PS3!!! FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU----
Apparently it is a date issue, hopefully it will get worked out soon. I gots me some gaming to do!
All these years of being that movie guy that people come to for movies and I finally just now picked up Fight Club. Now I just need to get an unscratched Out Cold and I will be ready for the moochers ...
Fifteen page paper on Hector of Troy or Godfather marathon? Hrm, I'll compromise and just watch the first two and then right a thirteen page paper. Sound good?

I want to see the movie sooooo bad now. Paul Rudd was born to be exported to Hong Kong as an action star. Can't wait for him to go back to his roots!
Oh Mountain Dew ... ambrosia of the gods!
This easily made my day, Letters of Note is an amazing website that collects, well, letters of note. I have spent hours exploring this site and came across one letter in particular that I just had to share.
(Via lettersofnote.com)
On January 22, 2001, Hunter S. Thompson sent the following expletive-filled fax to Holly Sorensen, then Production Executive at indie movie studio The Shooting Gallery. The furious written rant concerned the movie adaptation of Thompson's novel, The Rum Diary, to which Sorensen's studio had acquired the rights. Progress had been slow and confused on their part. So slow in fact that Thompson reached boiling point.
Note: The Shooting Gallery went bust later that year. The movie is still in production.
Transcript of Letter:
HOLLY SORENSON / Shooting Gallery / Hollywood / Jan 22 '01
Dear Holly,
Okay, you lazy bitch, I'm getting tired of this waterhead fuckaround that you're doing with The Rum Diary.
We are not even spinning our wheels aggresivly. It's like the whole Project got turned over to Zombies who live in cardboard boxes under the Hollywood Freeway... I seem to be the only person who's doing anything about getting this movie Made. I have rounded up Depp, Benicio Del Toro, Brad Pitt, Nick Nolte & a fine screenwriter from England, named Michael Thomas, who is a very smart boy & has so far been a pleasure to talk to & conspire with...
So there's yr. fucking Script & all you have to do now is act like a Professional & Pay him. What the hell do you think Making a Movie is all about? Nobody needs to hear any more of that Gibberish about yr. New Mercedes & yr. Ski Trips & how Hopelessly Broke the Shooting Gallery is.... If you're that fucking Poor you should get out of the Movie Business. It is no place for Amateurs & Dilletants who don't want to do anything but "take lunch" & Waste serious people's Time.
Fuck this. We have a good writer, we have the main parts casted & we have a very marketable movie that will not even be hard to make....
And all you are is a goddamn Bystander, making stupid suggestions & jabbering now & then like some half-bright Kid with No Money & No Energy & no focus except on yr. own tits.... I'm sick of hearing about Cuba & Japs & yr. Yo-yo partners who want to change the story because the violence makes them Queasy.
Shit on them. I'd much rather deal with a Live asshole than a Dead worm with No Light in his Eyes.... If you people don't want to Do Anything with this movie, just cough up the Option & I'll talk to someone else. The only thing You're going to get by quitting and curling up in a Fetal position is relentless Grief and Embarrassment. And the one thing you won't have is Fun...
Okay, That's my Outburst for today. Let's hope that it gets Somebody off the dime. And if you don't Do Something QUICK you're going to Destroy a very good idea. I'm in the mood to chop yr. fucking hands off.
R.S.V.P

AngryMy favorite part about that letter? He CC'd Johnny Depp and Benicio del Toro on it. What a showman!
I really hope this movie gets made now, or at least get to see what Holly Sorenson clearly has coming to her.
Darby O'Gill and the Little People, what a great damn movie. Plus, Sean Connery is so money! And you all just thought he was some pretty faced bad ass, didn't you? Didn't you?
