Was that you searching for "<B>story when a teenage boy had to wear a teenage girl high school dress outfit when he was except to stay for four year in a teenage girl high school to learn a new career how to a new career as a teenage girl and then she used tease me being dress as a teenage girl instead a boy</B>"? I wish I wasn't serious - somebody actually found me by Googling that exact phrase yesterday. <BR/><BR/>Anyway, hope you come back and visit again.<BR/><BR/>Forest Whitaker...yeah...not the strongest statement I've made on here. Maybe I should say, "he can do wrong in the 18 months between July 2006 and December 2007." He's had some great indie roles in his 20+ year career, but he's really been involved with some duds (<I>Vantage Point, Street Kings</I>) already in 2008.Danielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05222052132452709301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3435253058176416288.post-19819204225311327022008-04-13T16:41:00.000-05:002008-04-13T16:41:00.000-05:00just randomly found this blog (while actually atte...just randomly found this blog (while actually attempting to see if mine would show up when i googled it ... vain, i know...).<BR/><BR/>just one comment: you say that forest whitaker can "do no wrong"... did you ever see/hear of Battlefield Earth? ouch. worst big-budget movie of the last 20 years (and possibly of all time).Micahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14098148767783227970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3435253058176416288.post-27803629380250892172008-03-31T11:06:00.000-05:002008-03-31T11:06:00.000-05:00Cool - you've pointed out probably my favorites fr...Cool - you've pointed out probably my favorites from those lists!

See you in Uptown some time...:-)<BR/><BR/>Fletch, I know I need to see Paris! I'll I've heard is positivity. If you catch Things We Lost on TV some time it's worth a look to see Del Toro in a solid role. Rescue Dawn I think we're agreed, but about Southland Tales, hehe. I'll reply to your comment there...Danielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05222052132452709301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3435253058176416288.post-51260066788319615792008-01-30T15:38:00.000-06:002008-01-30T15:38:00.000-06:00This was an awesome post.

It would take me awhile.<BR/><BR/>Here's a few, quick things that stood out:<BR/><BR/>Glad you enjoyed 2 Days in Paris (especially Goldberg). I've been telling everyone about that, but almost no one has seen it.<BR/><BR/>Shame on you for missing Paris, Je t'aime. Great, great movie.<BR/><BR/>That's what Benicio gets for co-starring with Halle Berry. Skipped it pretty much for that reason alone...<BR/><BR/>Bale and Zahn were great, but Rescue Dawn wasn't. It was good, but they were better than the film.<BR/><BR/>There Will Be Blood is an awesome title. The most egregious ones to me are the uber-generic ones (ie Music & Lyrics). Blah.<BR/><BR/>Gotta find your Southland Tales review. As far as I've seen, you're the only other person besides me that saw it!
