Year One

Yeah, yeah. This movie has been out for quite awhile but I still felt like giving my 2 cents on the movie.

I’d like to start out with saying I like Jack Black. I think he has been in some really funny movies and some I don’t mind watching over and over again. Tenacious D was a good no-brainer movie, School of Rock was entertaining and Tropic Thunder was hilarious even if it was because Robert Downing Jr was magnificent. Nacho Libre was super funny and even The Holiday that had himself, Jude Law, Cameron Diaz and Kate Winslet was heartwarming at best. But then there are some movies I thought are shit like Shallow Hal but that wasn’t his fault. It was a stupid idea for a movie to begin with. Kung Fu Panda doesn’t count. My reasoning is that credit for animated movies should always go to the animators and not those ‘lending’ their voices. I do not associate Ray Romano to Ice Age for this reason.

So how did I find Year One?

Best of: Men Will Always Be Men

First posted on April 2nd, 2006 on Blogspot blog

Men will always be men. This was a statement told to me by my friend. She was defending the actions of married men who fool around at karaoke bars, pubs and clubs. She defended the immoralities of these men who have mistresses or women on the side. She defended while I prosecuted. She shielded these unfaithful bastards while at the same time, making me feel less of a man.

To be honest, a boyfriend cheating on his girlfriend is as bad as it gets but a man cheating on his wife is a one-way ticket to condemnation in hell. I get the impression that men are supposed to be unfaithful and monogamy is an unattainable solace. So what’s the point of marriages or formal ties between two people if it is understood that it will just be broken?

Dreaming audaciously

I’ve always dreamed big. No dream was ever too audacious enough for me. I know exactly what I’d do with $10,000,000. I know exactly how I’d govern the whole world. I have plans on combating global poverty and malnourishment. Climate change is any easy enough topic for me combat. But those dreams and plans will always remain a fantasy I play in my head when I’ve got nothing to do.
