I can't wait to see garden state and farenheit 9/11. they coming in town any time soon?
I have to dissagree with you about troy, though. The movie deviated so much from the original literature (i.e. The Iliad) that it was a little alienating. They turned a 10 year war into, like, a month. They also wrote out the gods, making them "simply an old religion" instead of actual characters, real within the story. The plot was also a little strange as well. I didnt know who to root for, they changed the characters around so much, i liked them all, except for agamemnon (who was actually a good man in the original story). Still, I didnt hate the movie. I thought it was very beautiful, and I have a soft spot for ancient greek tales (i also have the same thing for zombie movies).
Speaking of beautiful movies, you need to see Elephant immediately if you havent already!
That goes for the rest of you as well.
