The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford: Although it could have been a little shorter, and forgone some of the seemingly endless voice over narration, this hauntingly elegiac revisionist western is an aesthetically flawless, quiet, contemplative, masterfully scored and brilliantly acted film (including a career best by Brad Pitt

seriously, the more i read, the more i wanted to comment on to where eventually i would've had to have written a post just as long (if not longer).

the moral of this comment, we should hang more (than maybe twice a year at most) and watch/discuss movies... you know.. thats just what i think and all.

ps. you going to see that band play on monday?

pps. 300 just sucks.

I would love to talk movies. It's one thing that is desperately lacking in my life. I'm glad you responded positively because I was looking at this and it needed so much editing (the proofread version was on myspace.)I got a 50 '' plasm tv and though it's not 1080 p it makes for quite the fucking incredible home theater experience. I also have about 400 movies. I tell you this because I was thinking about doing a weekly movie night with a select group of friends. It would be sort of a club with a monthly panel that would select the movie. Then I would do a little write up every week with a synopsis, cast/crew info and back ground info of the movie. I wanted to also incorporate a drink of the week based on the movie. And I would want to show everything under the sun we could get our hands on maybe even do a post viewing discussion. Also, maybe do some double features. I am deff going to try to be there monday by the way.

ps. I got 300 for free with an HD DVD player I got and have yet to watch it.

oh so you haven't even seen it yet? visually, its pretty cool... other than that, it's so lame. lame to where even the visuals cant really make up for it.

count me in for the movie night though... the only thing is i quit drinking for the year (resolution and all that). i have netflix too so i could contribute to rare movies neither of us may own.

let me know when this all starts up.
