I'm sorry... but has there been an anthrax scare on the Schlop Forums or what?! Why are all these topics coming to me as emails rather than posts?! What gives?
Anywho... let's make this one a post:
Yo Nibs, have you seen the new X3 trailer that is now online?
No, not yet... I need to go check it out. What did you think?
You should go see Glory Road. It looks like a modern day Hoosiers. I hear Ebert LOVED it (actually I'm making that up... I have no idea what Ebert thought of it).
Guys, I just heard that Lee has 'noted' my suggestion for seeing Cache! I'm not sure exactly what that means but I'm pretty sure it is good! Maybe it means my suggestion was very notable... Hmm, not sure. I hope she sees it though. Okay - bye for now!
(Have I been using too many exclamation points recently? It's just that I'm so excited! Oops there I go again! AAAAAAaahhhhhhh...)
I read a lot about Cache online. It looks really cool, especially with that twist ending and stuff that only people watching close can see. Looks like another Memento type movie. I can't wait to see it.
Alas... I didn't see it tonight. Instead I saw Glory Road. I know, I know. You guys all hate me for that. But it was pretty interesting- since it was a true story. And I know Dave said guys didn't dunk back then, but in the end-credits they showed the actual footage of the final NCAA game and the guy DID dunk! So you're wrong. It was also interesting to see that Pat Riley was a player on the Wildcats during the final game... pretty weird to think he was ever a player.
Anyhow, it wasn't GREAT or anything, but it was interesting and inspiring and all. It was no Hoosiers though.
Since the topic of this thread is X3... I thought I'd talk about Xmen for a bit. Schlop and I have recently discovered that the Xmen cartoon is on every night at 9:30. We've been watching. It's just as great as I remember.
We just recently watched The Phoenix Saga where a mysterious Phoenix energy takes over Jean Gray and then helps her take the crystal that could destory the universe to safety. But then this week we saw The Dark Phoenix Saga where the Phoenix energy turns to evil and Jean Gray starts destroying things. Pretty intense.
The best characters are Gambit and Wolverine. They're really funny.
XMen Fact of the Week:
Did you know Juggernaut is Professor Xavier's half-brother??
It is the movie everyone is talking about here in the bean warren!!!
Hey Snuffles. Guess what?! Tonight I'm finally going to go and see Cache!! Hoo hoo. I'll let you know how it goes and if I catch the major "clue" at the end or whatever.
Do you think it's gonna be too scary for Nibs to come along?
I have NEVER and I mean NEVER watched a more TERRIFYING movie in my ENTIRE life. That was SCARIER than Seven, the Dark Crystal and every M Night Shamylan movie COMBINED. DEAR LORD. It's amazing I slept last night... I really think I might be permanently traumatized by that film.
Well... I can only hope that none of you bears ever see it... for it is far far too scary of a movie.
I am curious about the twist and all that... I will have to talk to Dave in more detail.
Sorry Lee - I had no idea Cache was going to be so scary! I guess this teaches me the lesson not to go recommending any movies until I personally have seen them - or one of the other bears has seen them and gives me the go-ahead.
