Sorry God

I took a look out the window a moment ago and notice it was pouring rain. So I said "What a batch of shittyness". Seconds later there's a flash and kaboom! One of the most violent thunder sounds I've ever heard. Creepy.

Double New Movie Reviews

Burn After Reading
Burn After Reading can be described in many ways: crazy, shocking, hilarious, violent, and great. First I'll start off by saying that I understand why some people will dislike this movie. To me it makes sense. Everything does in the movie. But some people won't think so, they'll be confused by the characters and the plot. I was shocked by this movie, in a variety of ways. For example the way the characters act towards each other. Everyone lies. I think that was in some ways the point of the movie.
Let's get down to a little summary: Osborne Cox, a employee of the CIA gets fired. His "bitchy" wife Katie Cox wants out of the marriage and steals some of his financial records. These end up in the hands of Brad Pitt's character Chad Feldheimer, a gym trainer. His boss, Linda Litzke, played by Frances McDormand (Fargo) is looking to get some surgery and eventually they try to extort the money from Osborne, thinking that the financial information is actually classified CIA data.
Brad Pitt is hilarious, as is Frances. Clooney plays a role but I won't delve into it, he's probably the second best in the movie.
Actually I just lied, J.K. Simmons (Daily Bugle's Jameson from Spiderman) stole the show for me, his dead on delivery of his lines are great, I wish he was in the movie more.
Acting: 10/10
Story: 9/10
Atmosphere: 9/10
Overall: 9.5/10
Rated 14-A (ONT) R (USA) This movie has great dark humor, but mark my words: It will shock you. It did for me 3 times.

Ghost Town

For those of you who don't know, I'm a huge Ricky Gervais fan, I loved the British version of The Office, Extras, and even Ricky's part in Night at the Museum.
So I went with my family to watch his first starring role in Ghost Town. I was not disappointed. The movie got a ton of laughs, and I could tell some parts were 'improv'ed by Ricky and it was great.
Basically Ricky plays Pincus, a dentist who, while in surgery, died momentarily and can now see dead people. Problem is, Pincus is pretty anti-social and doesn't want to help them. Gerg Kinnear plays a ghost who wants Pincus to help him rid his still alive girlfriend of an annoying new boyfriend. The girlfriend, played by Tea Leoni (Jurassic Park 3, Family Man, Deep Impact) has caught the eye of Pincus and he agrees.
Aasif Mandvi (The Daily Show) plays a small part as a co-worker to Pincus and does well. There are a bunch of smaller roles that give big laughs too. And that's normal for Gervais, who didn't get all the laughs in The Office.
Overall the movie also had some seriousness to it which was nice.

Acting: 9/10

Story: 9/10

Atmosphere: 9/10

Overall: 9/10

Rated 14-A (ONT) PG-13 (USA) A heart-warming love comedy, something that we don't see enough.

P.S. I'm disappointed that this movie isn't getting the attention it deserves, only the Upper James Cinema had it, Ancaster didn't and Welland's Seaway Mall Cinema didn't have it either. But hey you can still see Disaster Movie. (And the only way I would watch that is if I were in some sort of Clockwork Orange type deal).

College Football Week 4

Here's what CBS Sports projected:
Stingers vs. Bloutville Vols: I'd win by 49 points
Niagara Maulers vs. Sunnytime Day Care Academy: I'd win by 11 points

And the winner is:Stinger 106-63 Bloutville Vols!!
Niagara Mauler 121.75-112 Sunnytime Day Care Academy!!
It went great considering my much of my team was on their bye week.

Wow, shittiest day of my life.

You must be saying, "wow there haven't been worse days in your life?" Well besides being sick as a dog, missing the bus, going through two classes, walking home and having my girlfriend completely discard me as if I'm a piece of gum. Yeah it was the shittiest day of my life. Not worst, shittiest.

But hey I won both my fantasy football games today.

P.S. Rick Wright of Pink Floyd died today too, so there goes my dream of seeing Pink Floyd live as well.

Week 2 in NFL Football

Projected Score: Caledonia Maulers 99-105 Spartans
Hamilton Maulers 100-91 Mudcats

Current Score: Caledonia Maulers 59-36 Spartans
Hamilton Maulers 86-62 Mudcats

Cale. 1 game left(feat Tony Romo my QB) and 4 in progress
Ham. 1 game left- 7 in progress

Update at 8PM
Cale. 1 game left - Basically it's all in the Dallas Stars performance, if Romo does well than I'll win, if Terrel Owens does well and garners 23 pts without Romo's help than the Spartans could win.
Ham. 1 game left -(However I'm ahead by 24 pts and the other team is done) So victory is pretty much mine.

Update Monday
Well the StarsvsEagles game just finished and the scores are:
Caledonia Maulers 85-56 Spartans
Hamilton Maulers 88-63 Mudcats

Week 3 in College Football

Well right now I'm waiting for the scores to update but here's the games I watched on television:
University of South California vs. Ohio State- Ohio got wooped by my beautiful defence 35-3.
Perdue vs. Oregon- Perdue lost in double overtime but Wide Receiver Greg Orton made good plays.
Penn State vs. Syracuse- My Penn State defence wooped ass 55-13.

So far the only updates are from Friday, where my Maulers quarterback lost the game but still got us 37 points.

Here's what CBS Sports projected:
Stingers vs. Warriors: I'd lose by 7 points
Niagara Maulers vs. Jeremy24: I'd lose by 10 points
Well hopefully my defence teams alone should dispel those ideas.

Can't wait for the update!

And the winner is:
Stinger 140-127 Warriors!! WOOOOOOOO!
Niagara Mauler 107-131 Jeremy24, my RBs and some of my WRs let me down, I mean 0.75 Jarvis? 17 Running yards? That's just bad.
Well I'll have to overhaul my Maulers team again.

NFL/NASCAR tonight!
