I just saw Eddie Van Halen at the Hollywood Bowl.

Oh yeah? How was he?

He's a zombie.

Zombieland was tons of fun. It has exceeded its viewing limit for me for about 2 years, though. I look forward to laughing my ass off at it in late 2013.

Just watched Running Scared again. Man, what a crazy, crazy movie. It's like they tried to make a hard-ass, neo-noir gitty crime drama, then decided to make it kind of insane, then completely jump the shark with homicidal hockey players.

I want know how many F-bombs are in that movie. It's incredible. Fun stuff.

What? Valentine's Day? Psh.

Is that the Paul Walker flick w/ the crazy hitmen and blacklighted hockey rink?
Awesome is right?

That's the one. Blacklit hockey murderers shooting pucks into a held-down Paul Walker's face. Psychotic child-murdering affluent New York couples. Vera Farmiga being absurdly attractive. More cursing per minute than almost any movie I can think of.

Just watched Legion...

Why? Just why? Why did I waste an hour and a half of my life on this...

Just watched Restrepo -Very good documentary.

The scenes with the soldiers all geared out and maybe 30 years old tops having these talks with the peasant elders. Wow. The elders were yawning, confused and/or more interested in figuring out how to get into a Capri Sun. Some fine young men serving US in the military. And it was good to see a bit of what they go through.

From the macro perspective, it seems like they have an impossible task. Fighting, but also have this dual role -the part where they play peacemaker/international diplomat in a third world country -doesn't seem productive.

Inception - I had trouble staying awake for this one. Unless this movie managed to perform an extraction on me (not much to find in my dreamland) I was unimpressed.
