I DON'T REMEMBER A GODDAMN THING!

I REMEMBER!

WHY DID YOU MAKE ME DO IT!

I'M STARTING TO REMEMBER!

WHY DID YOU MAKE ME DO IT!? WHY?!

I CAN'T FIGURE OUT THAT I WAS ONCE A KILLER AND MADE THESE DECISIONS MYSELF. I'M SO ANGRY AND THIS CRAZY AMNESIA THAT NEVER SEEMS TO END IS MAKING ME..ANGRIER!

The NWFF's Playtime looks FUN!

But I'll be at the Fremont Outdoor Movies on Saturday night, enjoying Green Fairy Night as we do Moulin Rouge!

I caught "The Ten" at SIFF on an early Saturday morning, and the large mixed audience - old/young, hip/hipless roared throughout. It wasn't your Adam Sandler male adolescent wet dream replete with flatulence, big titz or bad taste. It was just plain god-damned funny and original. Imagine coveting your neighbor's MRI machine? So if David Schmader didn't like it, does that mean you discard your decision-making process into the lonely well filled with all the other things The Stranger doesn't, didn't, won't, can't, wouldn't, shouldn't like??

I thought "The Ten" was fucking hilarious and Schmader's review was completely off base. It's kinda like Woody Allen's "Everything you wanted to know about sex but were afraid to ask". Some of skits are funnier than others, but that's the nature of films made up of lots of short stories.

Poe! You're looking at the finger, not the moon.

The Bourne movies are to relieve frustration. The audience gets to come up out of real life for a huge gulp of air in the world fantastic when someone so flawless and in control as the Jason Bourne character just burns 90 minutes sonning the entire fucking evil empire with total automation.

@7

It isn't flawless. It's mindless.
