Hey T-Lee, Javier was in Before Night Falls (2000). I’m not sure how they pick who is a supporting actor and who is lead, I thought his role in No Country was significant enough to be lead actor, but what do I know.
In regards to guitar hero being fun, to each his own, just wanted to point out if you did take all the hours you spent playing the game solo you could have learned how to play real guitar, which leads to fun for the rest of your life.
Thanks for the post on Downfall Matt, checked it out and it is amazing!

Thanks Balz!!! Appreciate it.. Have you seen Before Night Falls? FANTASTIC CAST… Sean Penn and Johnny Depp in the same movie? Come ooooooon…. (cameo’s, but even so)… Excellent excellent movie…..

Yeah, I’m going to google…… it has something to do with who is the diving force behind the whole story.. who the story is about… For instance, the English Patient probably had both Colin Firth and Ralph Fiennes in the movie equally the same amount of time…. but the movie was about ‘The English Patient’ himself who happened to be Ralph Fiennes so he was nominated for Best Actor… Firth had a strong role but it supported the movie, as did Juliette Binoche’s part (who took the award for supporting actress)…. hope that helps and I think that is how they determine their categories…

Also, Michelle Williams was nom’d for Best supporting for Brokeback.. yes, a very strong character in the movie, but the movie was not about her….. hence the ’supporting’ nom..

Really I have to start watching more movies… sad I know.. just sad…

While I don’t think the second friend of mine is arrogant, I mean…it’s a video game. Obviously it’s not the same as an actual guitar. And while I thought it looked like the stupidest thing when it came out, it’s actually a whole lot of fun (past easy, anyway).

Someone on here mentioned how people could spend time getting good at Guitar Hero by themselves, rather than at a party or what not. Truth is, it’s not that hard, and it’s fun. I’ve almost beaten it on expert, and I’ve sat down and killed time on it maybe ten times since Christmas. It’s just a good time waster. It’s fun.

South Park is definitely one of the most relevant TV shows in a while, on top of being damn funny. Its formula on social commentary is essentially to take a moron from one side of an argument, a moron from the other side, a reasonable person from one side, a reasonable person from the other, and then add their own opinion, right or wrong.

It’s actually kind of sad how genius that is.

Shows like the Simpsons, Family Guy, and recently, Jon Stewart; when they go political, they usually forget that there’s a moron on their side of the story as well, and in forgetting that, they usually represent that moron pretty well.

Woodland Critter Christmas is still the best though, and the Lord of the Rings episode…

I’m looking forward to watching No Country For Old Men and There Will Be Blood, when they are released.

Quoting T-Lee:

My quoting button is not appearing right now.

Jeni25, he’s very quiet seeming. And reserved. That doesn’t tell me he’s someone seeking attention or the superstar status….. we all know what happened when he appeared on Jennie from the block. I think he learned his lesson which tells me he’s human and makes mistakes… On that note, I will end my Ben comments for the day and congratulate him on the movie!!!!!!!!!!!! Can’t wait to see it………

i think you may have mis-read what i was saying.

Oh sorry.. No, I was rambling.. just talking about loud…. Nope, I gotcha!!!!
Just further agreeing with you that he’s pretty cool!!

Kyle - I never thought it was all about the points

That and the fact that he’s made a bunch a crappy movies since Scent of a Woman doesn’t help his cause in my eyes.

Agreed, except for Heat, which was brilliant.

Yah I hate Ben Affleck in movies, mostly because of that whiny, crying scene he did with Bruce Willis in Armageddon.

He pretty much stinks up the screen in whatever he’s in.

Not Fair, can’t forget about Dogma!
Though that may be because Kevin Smith is brilliant and Alanis Morisette as God come on…

Looks like we’ll never catch that dragon in the forest, huh?

For any fans of Al Pacino I highly recommend picking up his boxed set. It’s previously unreleased movies the he, Pacino, either directed or had a hand in creating (as well as acting in).

In particular Chinese Coffee absolutely blew me away.

As much as I liked Al Pacino, it seems to me that ever since he did Scent of a Woman, his brain and linguistics somehow became hardwired in that “whoo-ahh” voice and he became the living embodiment of Lt. Frank Slade. I now watch The Godfather and can’t imagine him talking like he did in that film- like a normal human being. That and the fact that he’s made a bunch a crappy movies since Scent of a Woman doesn’t help his cause in my eyes.

and on a side note, yay for me figuring out how to get a little picture!!
