I see a lot of "T"'s Simon. What'cha gonna do about that?

I wish my thoughts were as organized as yours...or basically anyone's. It would be nice to be able to formulate my favorite movies or songs of the year or something like that...yeah that would be nice!

I can't decide whether The Prestige was a huge let down or the most amazing thing ever. either way, Christian Bale needs to be cloned and mass produced as a marketable good. imagine what that'd do for the economy. imagine the happy, happy noises.

I think I was one of the only people who didn't like "The Prestige." I can't really figure out why I didn't like it....maybe the whole idea of cloning people being the twist seemed too ridiculous. I dunno. I agree though, I would not mind a couple thousand Christian Bale clones.....mmmmmmm.

I think in order to like The Prestige, you've got to accept the clones. Yes, David Bowie build a fuckin' CLONING MACHINE! It's ridiculous, but past the clones, I think the film does a great job of leaving no loose ends. Everything just falls so nicely into place, it's quite satisfying.

Simon, you really must see Pan's Labyrinth. It's pretty incredible.

[the_heap]

Agreed to the millionth.

WHY THE HELL HAVEN'T YOU SEEN PAN'S LABYRINTH OR CHILDREN OF MEN?!

Simon...wow...come on...

[zephyr_42]

I've been...busy...? I dunno. Everyone already saw them, so I had no one to go see 'em with. I'll see them eventually.
