Answer the Mutha F*ckin Question!!!!!

Gee, I appriciate all of the help with those questions I asked before:roll:. Jesus Christ, you can't go on forums and ask those kinds of questions, or else you'll just get smart-ellic answers, and you can't ask them in blogs because nobody bothers to answer them. I might as well use www.chacha.com, since actual people help you with what you search for. Gamespot just pisses me off.......and I still get on it anyways. As far as X-Men Legends goes, though, I pretty much did all the research I could on the sequal and the actual game itself here on Gamespot, and I got all the info I needed. Once again, thank you for answering my questions:roll::roll: MASSIVE EYES ROLLING!!!!!!

*sigh* Well, I've been watching a lot of movies lately, including a new movie that was just released into theaters. I've been busy the past few days as well. On Friday, I got my new pimpin gold glasses from the eye doctor, and after complaining about them hurting my ears a little bit, the guy got my glasses adjusted and they fit great. I also got my oil changed in my car after waiting for months to do it, but that's not very interesting. Then, later in the afternoon, I got a phone call from my friend, who always calls me throughout the summer (she called me throughout the summer last year as well). After talking to her the previous day, she confirmed that we would all (all meaning us two and some more girls) go to see Rush Hour 3 the next day, which was super. She also said that her band was running a car wash in town on Saturday, raising money for her band, and even though I already got my car washed at the Chevy dealership where I got my oil changed, I said I would be there. I never have anything better to do anyways. We then talked about our new schedules that were posted up online, which were only in ABC order, so they weren't in the actual order. We have to wait until registration day for those details.

Saturday rolled around, and my mom and her friend went out to this lake to test out the new motor she got for her small boat, so she wanted me to pick up lunch for them. My dad and I went and got some burgers from a fast food joint, went over there, and ate. I also got to ride in the boat for a brief moment, which was fun. I was more focused on arriving at that car wash, though, and wanted to leave. So around 2:30, I went and got my car washed. After donating a generous $5, I got to hang around a little while, conversing with several people I knew from school who all seemed happy to see me, including a couple of the girls that I was going to see Rush Hour 3 with. Keep in mind I went and seen Transformers and The Simpsons Movie with these girls as well, so this was the third time we were getting together to see a movie. These are basically the only people I've hung out with all summer. Anyways, I almost didn't want to leave, but I didn't want to stand around, getting in the way of everyone working, so I left. 5:00 rolled around, and I headed down to the theater, and we all saw the movie. Just like that, I was heading home.

Ready for reviews? Well, here they are:

Groundhog Day

I don't really know if this would be counted as a romantic comedy, but if it is, it's one of the best I've ever seen. Even if it isn't, it was still a fantastic comedy. It's about a pessimistic weatherman (Bill Murray) who goes to this small town for Groundhog Day, and waking up to the same day constantly afterwards. This film was a lot like Run Lola Run, except instead of a certain situation repeating itself, a whole day repeats itself.........with various results. It's a fun concept I like to see in movies, seeing the same situations occuring with different outcomes, almost like playing a video game like Fable or Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic. You'll see Bill Murray try to break the law, fall in love with the woman who's worked with him for several years, try to kill himself, and try to save others. You never know what he will do next, since this movie is pretty non-linear. While it wasn't the type of movie in which you're constantly laughing out loud, the humor was pretty good. Besides, bombarding this type of movie with pointless humor would be completely unnecessary. This was a very creative movie to watch, and also very fun. It gets a 9.5/10.

Unforgiven

After watching modern westerns like The Proposition and Seraphim Falls, I wanted to rent some c/assic westerns to see just how much better this genre could get. So, slowly working my way up to old westerns like The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly, I came to a stop with Unforgiven, one of Clint Eastwood's last westerns. This movie was pretty friggin awesome. I mean, what could be better than Clint Eastwood, Gene Hackman, and Morgan Freeman playing in a movie together. Well, if they added Robert DeNiro, Jack Nicholson, or Al Pacino in it, then it would take the whole damn bakery, but the cast was pretty awesome in this movie. The story goes like this: A retired killer renews his old ways of life by accepting an offer to kill two men who knifed up a prostitute's face in a small town. The story has a some great twists, and the acting is pretty good, especially from Gene Hackman, who plays a nasty sheriff. Eastwood proves that not only is he one of the greatest actors ever, he's also one of the best directors. Seriously, I hope this man creates a couple more masterpieces before his time comes. And, of course, Morgan Freeman proves once again he's one of the best African American actors ever. If you've never seen a Western before, rent this movie. It is terrific. Even if you do love Westerns, and you managed to pass this one up before, by all means watch it. It deserves a 9.5/10.

Big Fish

Another unusual movie from the mind of Tim Burton. It is a wonder to watch, though. This movie was like Forrest Gump in fairy tale form. It's pretty hard to describe the plot, so here's what imdb.com describes it as: It is a story about a son trying to learn more about his dying father by reliving stories and myths his father told him about himself. Those myths and legends that are told come to life in glorious visions, and you'll marvel at the visuals. You'll laugh, and also probably cry, at all of the situations that go on in the movie, since this is pretty much a full fledged fantasy movie. The cast is pretty good, ranging from actors (and actresses) such as Billy Crudup, Ewan McGregor, Jessica Lange, Helena Bonham Carter, Danny DeVito, and, once again, Steve Buscemi. I swear, this dude is in almost every movie! But, like always, he's awesome, just like the rest of the cast. Along with the cast, you'll also come across unusual people you've seen somewhere else, such as Matthew McGrory, who was in the Guiness Book of World Records for having the largest feet; Deep Roy, who played the Oompa Loompas on Charlie and the Chocolate Factory; and then, you have Billy Redden, who you may have recognized as the banjo kid from Deliverence:twisted:. The thing about that guy is that I used to live in the town that he was born and living in:D. Look on imdb.com and you'll see where. But anyways, back to the movie. The ending was really good, and you might have your carpet flooded with tears. But all in all, it's a fantastic journey through life that you'll never want to leave once it's all over. Highly recommended. A 9/10.

And finally, the moment you've all been waiting for (let's try something different;) ).............

Rush Hour 3

[spoiler] It's been 6 long years since we've all heard that infamous phrase from the final blooper from Rush Hour 2, in which Chris Tucker says, "Damn! He ain't gonna be in Rush Hour 3." Well, finally, Detectives Lee and Carter are back for more action, laughs, and their silly antics in the third (and possibly final) installment of the hilarious trilogy. The plot is basically the same as in the first two movies, only it takes place in Paris. In fact, this movie gives you a serious case of deja-vu, as if you were watching "Rush Hour 2 1/2" instead of "3." The only difference is that there's more humor and less action. The humor was Chris Tucker being his usual, loud-mouthed self, providing the audience with extreme laughter, and that was about it. Jackie Chan didn't get as much screen time as he did in Rush Hour 2, and the result was a minimized amount of action sequences, which I thought was disappointing. Sure the humor was hilarious (but with a few cases becoming stale), but I wanted to see Jackie Chan kicking a lot, and I mean a LOT, of ass. The plot was cliched, leading up to a lackluster ending. Also, the bloopers felt lame compared to the last movie, and there weren't even as many. In fact, this time, it seemed like they were fake bloopers this time, because the last blooper tries to be as unexpected as the last blooper in Rush Hour 2. Rush Hour fans might be disappointed this time around, but you'll still be laughing your head off, since Chris Tucker steals the spotlight this time around. I hate to say this, but I really hope this is the end to the series. It gets a 7/10. [/spoiler]

Well, 8 more days until my birthday, and 22 more days of summer left. That means 22 more chances to beat some video games, 22 more chances to get up early to have a longer day instead of sleeping in, 22 more days to hang out with friends, 22 more days..............pleh, I'm done. Throw me a frickin bone as Dr. Evil would say. And just for laughs, lets not end this with the usual "Until Next Time" climax. Let's just..........end it.
