Summer Explosion Movies

There are 3 movies coming out this summer with the same basic plot. A good band of commandos vs a bad band of commandos. Nothing original, but really, who watches these movies for original plots? NOBODY! So which of these films will be The Prestige and which will be The Illusionist?

The Losers

The A-Team

The Expendibles

Personally, I won’t bet against the star power of The Expendibles, but the other two movies don’t look like slouches either. Should be a fun (and loud) summer!

here’s your basket of kisses

3 days till I’ll be in New York.

Not permanently, mind you. A short trip. It’s a 2 day thing. Have to be back because one of my buddy’s wives wants him home early.

Can’t talk his way out of it.

I can’t imagine that right now.

I sometimes feel like there’s nothing I need more in this world than a serious relationship. But then there’s times when… i just don’t.

I went to the eye doctor today. He was a new guy. I’m never going back. He was slow, rude, and seemed to lick his chops at the thought of having me come back for an unnecessary followup next week. Fuck. That.

I’ll be following up. With a real eye doctor.

I realize I’m late (like 3 years late) getting on this bandwagon, but I’ve been watching a lot of Mad Men lately. All I know is that I need to buy more suits. And drink more cocktails. And live in a city. That show is great, seriously. Oh and despite what I said earlier, Christina Hendricks needs to marry me right now.

On a completely unrelated note, if this doesn’t make you laugh, then you need to drink more cocktails.

What is any life without the pursuit of a dream?

I like when I sorta forget movie, and then putting it on I’m still able to kinda be surprised when things happen. Not the same surprise as the first time you see it, but still it’s not a movie you’re familiar enough with that you can recite every line. That just happened to me.

Vanilla Sky is one of the greatest movies ever. The ending is almost perfect and it gives me chills every time I see it. Sigur Rós singing The Nothing Song, some of my favorite lines ever.. it all comes together. I think this was when Tom Cruise peaked cuz it has been pretty much down hill since this.

David: Do you remember what you told me once? That every passing minute is a another chance to turn it all around.
Sofía: I’ll find you again.
David: I’ll see you in another life… when we are both cats.
