I liked the Matrix: Reloaded as much as the first one, but Reeves was still as bad as he can be at acting. If he could just fight and not talk, the movies would be so much better, oh well. Thanks Mike for the heads up on the preview for Matrix3 at the end of the credits, worth the wait. Tracey and I also saw Down With Love and I kinda liked it. Ewan was great and the dialogue was very tight and funny. It was very cheesy, but on purpose, and it worked well. But I still don’t like Renee Zellwhateverhernameis, but she was ok in this one. I was basically sick all weekend and stayed on the couch, except for the movie going. We rented Spirted Away, and, well, not sure what to say. Very weird, and long and strange. I liked parts of it, but overall I didn’t really like it, sorry Mike and Justin. I also watched the second season of OZ on DVD and it was as messed up as the first season, but so good, not for the faint of heart. I’m still feeling a little sick, that half way point of feeling better but still feeling crappy, which stinks cause Pedro is playing tonight, but not sure if I can make it. Next Friday I get finally see the Flaming Lips. And SF59’s new LP hits stores tomorrow. They are playing a CD release show in Hollywood, but I can’t make that. How much more boring can the Eastern Conference NBA games be? And why can’t Baez close a game? Lastly, I want to welcome Ryan (Tracey’s brother) to the blog family, check him out @: http://goatrider.blogspot.com

Oh, and thanks to all who responded in various forms to my “So I Married an Axe Murderer” quote from last week, nice job. Here are some more quote challenges for ya. Hint: Two movies have two quotes on this list. Most of these are pretty easy, but there are a few harder ones, have fun.

1. “I can't fire them. I hired these guys for three days a week and they just started showing up every day. That was four years ago.”

2. “I'm into murders and executions!”

3. “Alright, you primitive screwheads, listen up: THIS... is my BOOM STICK!”

4. “They say money can't buy happiness? Look at the smile on my face. Ear to ear, baby.”

5. “Fortunately, I'm adhering to a pretty strict, uh, drug, uh, regimen to keep my mind, you know, uh, limber.”

6. “Strange things are afoot at the Circle-K”

7. “Wake up! Time to die!”

8. “One day the kids from the neighborhood carried my mother's groceries all the way home. You know why? It was outta respect.”

9. “This is not Nam. This is bowling. There are rules.”

10. “Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned for Sega.”

11. “What came first, the music or the misery? People worry about kids playing with guns, or watching violent videos, that some sort of culture of violence will take them over. Nobody worries about kids listening to thousands, literally thousands of songs about heartbreak, rejection, pain, misery and loss. Did I listen to pop music because I was miserable? Or was I miserable because I listened to pop music?”
