While most film rats (we'd call them film "buffs", but if there was any buff in them they surely would have seen this brilliant piece of cinema in the theatre already) race to their mailboxes this week hoping to extract that precious little red envelope containing "No Country For Old Men" - that movie, as my Mensa cube mate puts it, with the creepy Spanish dude that looks like "Denny" from Grey's Anatomy and won all those awards - we'll be calmly waiting for a different film from the top of our queue...
A little gem called Gattaca: Special Edition.
Table for 4 please.

The Orange are in a little bit of trouble...
ReplyDeleteGattaca is one of the top 50 movies Ethan Hawke's ever made.
ReplyDeleteJay Bilas and Raftery are engaged in a rather spirited debate. I never thought I'd see that happen. I mean, Bilas pretty much idolizes Raftery, right?
ReplyDeleteYes, they opened a Turkish Bath together in Jersey.
ReplyDeleteOh yeah, I remember hearing that James Thrash was going to be rehabbing his injury there.
ReplyDeleteHe is?!?!? (running over to the wheelhouse to crank out 5,000 words on that...)
ReplyDeleteSeriously Dennis, you did this on purpose right? I go out, have a few brew dogs with Cuse game, and this is what I return to? Damn you.
ReplyDeleteTJ...the only guy I knows who considers a basketball game "someone I had beers with."
ReplyDeleteOutside of Granny Smith's apples, they're his closest friends.
ReplyDeleteThere were other work people there, but that really takes away from it...so, it was just me, a bartender, and Cuse taking the worst shots I've ever seen for a half.
ReplyDeletei'm guessing that Donte Greene takes more bad shots than any player in the conference.
ReplyDeleteNope - it's Jhonny Flynn.
ReplyDelete"...me, a bartender, and Cuse taking the worst shots I've ever seen" -- Grappa? Pepe Lopez? Ouzo? Absinthe? Aristocrat anything? Tell us more.
ReplyDeleteI've got to admit, the new Brand Jordan commercial, No Cinderellas, is pretty strong.
ReplyDeleteIt is strong. Great music in it.

My printer is about to explode...I've already printed out 50 or so pages of fantasy baseball info for the impending Atlantic City draft/drinking/dinner debacle.
ReplyDeleteIt's good to see all the CAA and Wire talk hasn't kept the diehards from finding G:TB...
ReplyDeleteWhat Would Brian Boitano Do?
Props to Colorado State, who managed to go 0-16 in the Mountain West during the regular season, for their 68-63 1st round win over Wyoming in the MWC tourney.
ReplyDeleteFor the heck of it, here are Stewart Mandel's latest Bubble Ins and Outs...and for the record, I think Maryland and Va Tech are absolute poop, and if they veer manage to get in, they are losing in the 1st round.

I'd swap VCU/UMass and S. Alabama/UAB...but other than that, I kind of agree with that list.
ReplyDeletevcu has a 'who did they beat' problem. only knocked off maryland and houston while losing to jmu and hampton. in a better conference, it may not matter.
ReplyDeleteumass didn't beat anyone either (syracuse, boston college), but i'm betting the a-10 gets more love from the committee than does the caa.
the fighting beilein's trying to live another day. and nova trying to take the question mark away against the hoyas.
ReplyDeleteshouldn't the comments be about the post? this is chaos.
