Psycho thrillers!

The Ring (Naomi Watts and some excrutiatingly hot guy) and The Others (Nicole Kidman and a couple of kids) are probly my favourite movies of the moment, (well, the only 2 huge movies i can think of) because, well, they're psycho thrillers.

Horror movies in general are okay, but usually the blood and gore takes away from the entire scary-ness (is that a word?) of the movie, at least in my opinion. Of course, there are some classics who don't go by this hypothesis, and they're still just friggin amazing... like The Exorcist and Rosemary's Baby.

All in my opinion!
"if the nuremberg trials were applied to us foreign policy, every us president since 1945 would have been hanged." noam chomsky.

...and this is me hanging on / i'd burn our initials in the sun if it would shine / anxiety chokes me like razor wire / if hate's in your heart man, you'll take what you're given / wake up / i'm not the only one / it's never goodbye / go ahead and play dead / if everyone's a casualty, then take your time, there ain't no trouble / these wounds they will not heal / ambition can be a tricky thing / what the hell do i know about rape anyway? / this is not what i hoped for / ain't it so weird how it makes you a weapon / who will be there to tell me how stupid i am? / those living for death will die by their own hand / and it's me that I am spying on / pick up the pieces and live with the stars / hurry up and wait / things have never been so swell / they're always the ones who slowly drift / be great / ...and this is my world.

Oh but you must. If Gene Wilder were dead he would be turning in his grave over the idea they would remake this. The movie is a classic already, no need to ruin it. Hell, next you know they'll be making a remake of "Gone with the Wind" or "The Wizard of Oz". It's just not right.
I can't wait until the day schools are over-funded and the military is forced to hold bake sales to buy planes.

I saw Butterfly Effect, and though I did not think it was good, I did not think that it was as bad as reviewers made it out to be. The storyline was alright, if you can believe in a non-plausible movie that will make it even better.
