QUOTE (FlaSoxxJim @ Oct 31, 2009 -> 08:43 AM) I finally saw Where the Wild Things Are yesterday, and I'm totally conflicted. Not a kid's film, and my 10-year old really disliked it. I thought it was visually striking (on par with the best Terry Gilliam at times), and it was imaginative and emotional. It just totally missed (or chose to ignore) what I think are the main points of Sendak's book. Rather than focusing on the innocence and imagination that makes childhood the amazing time it is (even when you're in the doghouse with your parents), the film explored the full range of human character flaws that can make childhood an simultaneously so painful at times. The film was earnest, honest, and heartfelt — but it emphasized aspects of being a kid that I think are the antithesis of what shines through in Maurice Sendak's book and makes it a timeless book that becomes a favorite of each new generation. Because I just cant, I wont try to say it better. You hit right on the money.

My favorite of all time would be "It" I am going to watch Orphan and Drag me to hell with the chick tonight. I heard the Orphan was really good.

Holy s***! I needed something to get my soxtalk juices flowing again!

QUOTE (knightni @ Oct 25, 2009 -> 07:54 AM) Well, you can always go out with the other one instead... Nope. I told you , only one girl right now. She has me silly stupid guys, I dont know what I am doing other than thinking about her lately. I hope I dont have bad Karma lurking around to have this girl crush me because I totally am falling for her. Geez....

I went to a play that my girlfriend was in last night. She played a crackhead and I cant get that look of her out of my head.....repulsive.

I heart you.

QUOTE (The Critic @ Oct 15, 2009 -> 05:39 PM) Because historically a large percentage of weird domestic s*** happens in Florida. Weird international s*** is predominantly German by nature. Thus the classic Loveline game, Germany Or Florida? What an epic game that was. I laughed hysterically every time.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Oct 15, 2009 -> 01:55 PM) Me and my daughter will see Where the Wild Things Are, for absolute sure. She is pretty excited about it. My wife wants to go see the new Disney Christmas Carol 3D feature too. I am extremely excited about both of those movies actually. My girl is not.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Oct 14, 2009 -> 01:52 PM) Ya I would say that is pretty much my list as well. Like minds Ace.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Oct 13, 2009 -> 11:52 AM) The first CD I ever owned was a CD single of "Bullet with Butterfly Wings"... (late to the game I guess, lol, but I was what? 12?). The first album I got was "Master of Puppets". The first cd I ever owned was a Mary J. album and Arrested Development first album(which might be their only one).

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 14, 2009 -> 08:09 AM) I'm sure your English teacher did too... Whats worse is I dont even see it after reading it again. LMAO

I seen Couples Retreat last night and wanted to shoot myself in the face.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Oct 13, 2009 -> 12:36 PM) Jeff...I'll have a date for you and Mario in the next couple weeks for when you bastages will need to fly out to Cali for the wedding. Looking like it will be sometime in May. May now huh? She is putting the pressure to get this s*** done.

QUOTE (bmags @ Oct 12, 2009 -> 05:48 PM) what songs should I listen off of white rabbits album because I have it, and I try to listen to it, then i turn on something else. Same thing happened with cold war kids, whom were compared to spoon their first go and obviously didn't have the connection that white rabbits does, and then someone played a song off of "robbers" and I realized I never really listened to the album. White Rabbits are so much better and less annoying than the CWK. I dont know how to really answer what songs to listen too, I would just say that you know as well as the next that you have to listen to most albums a few times through to get a feel of what the band is doing. There are some cool subtle things that they throw in each song that I like.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 12, 2009 -> 09:42 AM) Everyone dumped you, huh? LOL. No, although thats the way it should have ended. I met a girl that might have me change my ways for atleast today QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Oct 12, 2009 -> 09:59 AM) So SHIPPS decided to stop humping legs today. No that will still go on.

I am turning over a new leaf and I am going to stop being such a dog starting today. amen.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Oct 12, 2009 -> 12:47 AM) Just watched Zack and Miri Make A Porno last night. Absolutely hysterical. 5/5 Keith this has to be sarcastic.

I was at the Hawks game on Friday and I have to say being a newer Hawks fan it is pretty intimidating having so many smart Hawks fans there (atleast in my section). These guys really knew their stuff and it was like they could sniff out guys like me and didnt really respect my fandom. It was pretty funny on the way to Westend on the shuttle after the game. Carmen and Silvy from ESPN were on the bus and everyone was giving them s***. They were really cool about it though.

We winded up going to The Chronicles Of Hades on Grand Ave off of Halsted. It was really lame but big. I look for more of a fun house mixed in with scary things adn this place was just a costume fest for struggling actors.

LMAO I totally forgot about Columbia House. My parents wouldnt let me get that just for that reason.

White Rabbits are pretty awesome. " Percussion Gun" in particular is f***ing great with all the drum action. And I have to say this about Back Spacer...I had low expectations for it but Pearl Jam still has me mumbling and singing along to their stuff.

QUOTE (Sonik22 @ Oct 7, 2009 -> 09:42 PM) I really want to see "Paranormal Activity" Thats the Blair Witch Project kinda movie,right?
