I laughed harder at Black Snake Moan then I did at Reno 911 Miami. The latter was so damn dissapointing. I'm not saying that the former was good, it wasn't. BSN was awful, but it was still hilarious. For example take this one scene, where Ricci is drunk/high on ecstacy; in this scene she is naked except for underwear and football shoulder pads around her chest. In this scene she is playing football with some guys and some girls. She gets the ball, then a guy tackles her unzips his pants slightly and has sex with her. When he's finished, he gets up and continues playing football with the rest of the people. This is throwback comedy. It belongs with the one-liners of Bogart. Not too mention the film uses the word "nigger" at least once every two pages of the script. I know the only reason Justin Timberlake accepted the part of Ronni in this film was so he could say "nigger." He sure as heck can't do it in his music.
I also screened 300. I say screened because that is all my professors say we do when we watch movies. Why can't they pull the cork out of their behinds and say the word "watch." Why can't they say, "Tonight we will watch Bonnie and Clyde" instead of "Tonight we will screen Bonnie and Clyde." 300 was a good watch, although the flashback to wheat field scenes reminded me completely of Gladiator. Three hundy had it's baddass moments, and surpirsingly had little shaky cam. It was epic, too epic at times, laughable epic at other times, but it was still a good watch. Lot of blood and titties flying all over the screen which keeps the men attentive. The main dude is pretty gangster although I don't think he'll become a new beast mancrush just yet. If you don't know my current beast mancrushes it should be obvious; Clive Owen, Daniel Craig(not just because of Bond), and Gael Garcia Bernal. As I have said to others, Gael is my latin flav, my "Ho" in a different area code if you will. Cillian Murphy and Ryan Gosling are the emerging Beasts. Gosling is dating Rachel McAdams who is smoking, if you can wrangle that canadian you have to be a beast. Saying Cillian is an emerging beast might be a tad gay, considering he played a chick in a movie, and he was also in Wes Craven's Redeye.
I turn 20 in a week, what a worthless age.
