I can't wait for Steve Buscemi to go broke and start narrarating books on tape. I might actually get through Tess of D'Urbervilles for once...

Making out with Elizabeth Banks (or Paul Rudd) is a perfectly acceptable reason for letting a child drown. Just saying.

Watch Now!
If you've never seen Broken Flowers or it's just been sitting around on your list of movies to see, this is your chance to right that wrong. Bill Murray is still on a roll after 'Lost in Translation' and the supporting cast is just as amazing, from Tilda Swinton to Jeffrey Wright. Seriously, just take 2 hours and watch the thing.

My Problem With Indian People (Part 8 of a 500-part Series)
Everything is a fucking problem when it's not convenient.
An example from last Saturday night:
Indian Deuche: Excuse me.
Me: Yes sir?
Indian Deuche: What is that? (Motions to a sizzler on a table behind them with chicken and a small amount of smoke coming off of it)
Me: That is our Jerk Tandoori Chicken.
Indian Deuche: There's too much smoke coming off of it.
Me: That's actually a normal amount.
Indian Deuche: The smoke is bothering me very much.
Me: I'm sorry about that. It will go away in a minute.
Indian Deuche: Can we change tables?
Me: We're completely full at the moment.
Indian Deuche: Do you plan to sell many more of those?
Me: Of the sizzlers?
Indian Deuche: Yes.
Me: Well we were, but I guess we can stop for tonight and just tell everyone that we changed our menu. Would that work for you?
Indian Deuche: Yes thank you. Come back in a few minutes and we'll give you our order.
Me: (muttered curses)
...
Me: Are you ready to order?
Indian Deuche: Yes. We'll have one Tandoori Chicken, one Seekh Kebab, and two Onion Kulcha.
Me: You do realize that the meat dishes come on a sizzler?
Indian Deuche: Yes, that's fine.
Me: So you want them on sizzlers?
Indian Deuche: Yes.
Me: And the smoke won't bother you?
Indian Deuche: No, it's ok.
Me: ...Alright then.

Favorite Moments In Film
So I've been stuck on a James Cameron binge for the last week, rewatching pretty much all his films. I always forget how good True Lies actually is, how I almost cried when Jack dies (stupid Rose, she could have held on), and how Aliens was the best Alien movie. Oh, and that Ripley is fucking hardcore.
