Back at the Homestead (SU)

Well, I just got back from Spring Break, and my legs freaking HURT. They’ve become so useless after 40 hours or so of driving down and back from Florida.

Fortunately, I’ve gotten some decent footage of my brother’s band, and will be making a small music video to their song, FALLING. The band is called “SO IT GOES,” and is some sorta metal…thing. I don’t know, music isn’t my forte.

I’ll have the video posted shortly.

Other than that, working on stuff.

Congrats to Dan Gvozden on being purchased as a screenwriter by New Line. You LUCKY BASTARD!

Film Club is going well.

Just random notes today, guys and gals.

I Keep Fumbling I know

Yeah, I keep fumbling my posting schedule. It’s been really tough with school, and somehow I doubt I’ll be doing any major updates over the next 10 days.

Tomorrow I’m going to post an essay I wrote for Film Literature (Adaptations) from last year, about the film/play A Streetcar Named Desire.

Why am I going to post that?

Because even though the paper was a month late, I still got a B+ on it. It was that damned good.

It’s currently part of the reason I’m falling so behind on my paper for International Cinema- I don’t see myself writing anything nearly that good and it intimidates me.

Oh well, gotta get to work over that soon anyways.

This is a review from another site, you might have heard of it: Aint It cool News.

300 shrapnel

Well, here’s an except to the review :

The movie takes place about a million years ago, and it’s sort of like a prequel to SIN CITY. Except way less guns and cars but twice as much skull splitting. If you watch this movie and go into a Taco Bell, and say to the cashier, “I need some extra sauce packets” guess what? You’re getting twenty sauce packets because your face will punch him in the brain.

This is pretty much a non-sequiter review of the movie, and its funny as hell. Its also almost completely accurate. It lists the reasons why other critics hated the movie, but also points out pretty much why they’re wrong. If you like Maddox (The Best Page In The Universe), then you’ll enjoy this.

Oh well, I’m deliriously fudged up on Sudafed. I’ll talk more later.

Name That Celebrity

This video isn’t really relevant to anything STRIKE A POSE!!! related, but hey, I figured some of you guys might get a kick out of it.

On Notice

Type in the link in the bottom right hand corner of the image to make one of your own!

Should I explain my stuff?

1- the food at Salisbury’s COMMONS dining hall. Should be self-explained. While I like a majority of the food…it always comes back to haunt me.
2- GHOST RIDIN’ The Whip…here’s a video for this one and why it is stupid:

3- Grizzly Bears…hey gotta give Colbert credit somehow.

4- Drawing 1 Charcoal- Drawing 1 is driving me INSANE

5- Adult Swim. FIX YOUR DAMNED LINE UP

6- Michael Bay: Do NOT screw up transformers. You will feel VERY BAD…YEAH.

7- Tom-Sluttery. A favorite activity of some people, it never fails to amuse me how it MUST STOP.

8- Eddie Murphy. An example of number 7. What the hell was NORBIT meant to do for culture anyways? Taint it with even more unnecessary stupidity? Eddie Murphy needs to take a freaking Valium or something…look what happened to him at The Oscars… IMDB REPORTS THAT:

“Eddie Murphy was so devastated after losing the Best Supporting Actor Academy Award…he stormed out of the ceremony… Murphy was the favorite to win the Oscar, which instead was awarded to Little Miss Sunshine star [Alan] Arkin. The 45-year-old tried to downplay his disappointment telling American publication Us Weekly, “It’s fine. It happens. It’s OK.” But shortly thereafter, Murphy and girlfriend Tracey Edmonds left the show and didn’t return.”

Guess it wasn’t OK, huh EDDIE? Go play your Donkey role one LAST time so I don’t have to hear a FORTH batch of stupid catchphrases constantly coming out of my 12 year old brother’s mouth!

That’s about it tonight guys. Just figured I’d put up an amusing, pointless, editorial update.
