Movies, TV, and the like

THE DARK KNIGHT - purchased midnight showing ticket 2 weeks in advance. I was supposed to meet friends there, but their tickets were for a different theatre. I sat by strangers... it was still a good seat. The movie was fantastic. I always love a performance by Christian Bale and Heath Ledger reinvented himself to play his character which made the movie in my opinion. The only complaint I have is the whole actress swap from Katie Holmes to Maggie Gyllenhaal. It's just confusing... and I don't really like Maggie even though she's a better actress than Katie.

MAGNOLIA - easily my favorite movie of all time. There are not only multiple stories going on, but they are fascinating stories. Stories with deep, painful roots. The kind that submerge your thought process into those roots. Incredible acting.

IDIOCRACY - one of my favorite comedies of all time. Luke Wilson is really funny in this just because he's always getting screwed by dumbasses galore. It's a slap happy movie for sure... or just a slap-happy-inducing movie.

MALCOLM IN THE MIDDLE - actually a pretty good tv show.

ENTOURAGE - I've only seen about 5 or 6 episodes, but I plan on renting the DVDs and watching it. It's not really funny or dramatic or anything. It's kind of everything... like a soap opera for early 20s dudes. It's entertaining.

COLBERT REPORT/DAILY SHOW - never fail.

LOSTWINDS - a Wii game which can be bought in the online store under the WiiWare section. It's just an all around cool game. You blow wind to move your character, kill enemies, and eventually make your character straight up fly. They're coming out with sequels, too. The sequels are going to continue the story with your character in the same condition he was in. So... you can still fly.
