it would be good to remember the past few weeks next spring when movies will undoubtedly suck again, good to remember that these awesome movies come in batches. i’ve been to the theater three times in the last few weeks, and i have to say that all three films were pretty great.
The Hurt Locker
In The Loop
Funny PeopleThe Hurt Locker and In The Loop were particularly awesome for different reasons. suspense for the former and lyrical comedy for the latter. Funny People will definitely get sandbagged by the requisite expectations associated with Judd Apatow and Adam Sandler though, which is unfortunate because once you get past the fact that Funny People isn’t nearly as funny as an Apatow film can be, it’s still a great drama that just happens to have a shit ton of penis references.
anyway, i won’t expand on any of these movies any more than to say that if you’re looking for a nudge in any direction, these three films, The Hurt Locker and In The Loop in particular, might be worth the effort. i laughed my fucking ass off in In The Loop.

question. if a girl never ever calls, IMs or in general ever asks about you, it’s pretty safe to assume that she has zero interest, right? even if you have spent a lot of time together (all at your invitation), alone and in groups, right? if you are pretty positive that if you stopped calling and asking to hang out, that she would pretty much never be heard from again, that’s a sign that things are nowhere, right?
right. just checking.

aww.. there is someone out there for you!!! be positive! don’t be the beginning jim carrey in “yes man”… be the ending!
why would she even accept your invitation in the first place? why don’t you stop calling and see if she ever reaches out first? if she doesn’t then she placed you in the friend zone long time ago…
drop that chick like a bad habit.
If she calls, you tell us so we can analyze it. How’s your scotch hunting going?

actually a friend of mine dropped off a bottle of Lombard 12 for me and i enjoy that one. it’s not overpowering in any one direction, as far as i can tell. not sure how much that one costs though because it was a gift. i was going to look hard for one of your other recommendations besides the Talisker until she showed up at my door with the Lombard. i think next will be the Balvenie, like i mentioned before, then maybe the laphroaig.
i really liked The Hurt Locker. what’s In the Loop about?
