I won my first bike race of the season last week. ;) Have been getting my ass kicked since February. The race was a 9.9 mile time trial in very ****ty windy cold wet weather and I won my division...

I had it rated a bit higher. My review was not excessively positive nor glowing. I think you rated Poop Fiction as a 1 (or was it a -1? I can't recall). At least we might be able to agree that...

Django Unchained

Hard to rate this. It did feature some excellent QT dialogue in the first half; as well as a very good performance by Waltz. It takes a turn at Candieland and becomes more grim....

Rise of the Footsoldier

British film outlining the rise of a Firm hooligan into doorman into peripheral mafia type. Think the first half of it as a Greenstreet Hooligans, but with far more...

Best Bday wishes, Vlad!

Memory of a killer

Belgian film abt an aging hit man w advancing Alzheimer's Dz who is sent on a mission. He discovers that one of his targets is a 13 year old girl and decides to abort his...

I saw this a few months back and was a bit pleasantly surprised. I think it was a bit of a tribute to mallick's badlands. The wide open camera shots of wilderness as well as similar shots of the...

It would seem that she asked the medical facility to accommodate her sample production with a very easy and viable alternative (having staff there catheterize her to obtain a specimen) and evidently...

Lincoln

Was expecting big things from this. I thought TWBB was very good, but DDL's acting dominated some of the film's story and symbolism just a bit too much imo. Reading about Lincoln, I was...

End of Watch

Interesting format (pov 'reality' cams) on which to paint the typical "brotherhood in blue" themes. Nothing great. The side of the plot that involves the Mexican mafia is a bit...

Are you sure it wasn't his toe? And don't you guys refer to them as chiropodists or something? Reminds me of that Beavis and Butthead episode...."I went to the dentist and he checked my nads and...

lmao at the doll comment! :D Coffee spill on keyboard. I'm sorry you're familiar with the cystoscope, Vlad. I seem to recall that you've had stones and stents?? All of those things can most...

Ha! Vlad jests. I'd bet he learned the Nitrogen composition of the universe in "Grade two". I think I would've read about it in "7th grade", but forgot it. I'm a urologist for Christ's sake! I...

12/13. ****in' Nitrogen.

The Paperboy.

Directed by the director of Precious. Features similar scenes to those seen in Precious; hazy 8mm scenes of alternate reality/possibly past real experiences. Also features...

Lemmy

With a day full of bad news on the media outlets yesterday, I needed a real feel-good doc to cheer me up. Seeing the persistence of Lemmy and hearing stories told about him was indeed a...

Have not seen that film. The synopsis on imdb looks interesting.

I kinda see Beasts as trying to capture elements of Winter's Bone; showing the poverty and at times unity and social order that...

Beasts of the Southern Wild.

Seemed to be this year's "indie fav". The story was not what I expected. With some of the short trailers I'd seen, I was expecting something more like Pan's...

Wassup Rockers.

Clark film. He did Bully and Kids. Both those films were disturbing and creepy dramas highlighting callous teens, and were deemed worthy of viewing imo. I was hoping for similar...

My wife watches Two Broke G irks on dvr. She admits that this season is pretty bad but maintains that the first season seemed better in her opinion. I didn't see the past season(s), but I find the...

The third man


Excellent 1949 film set in post war Vienna. Like Berlin, it is divided and governed in several sectors. A middleaged American pulp novel writer is visiting to meet w an old...

Zero dark thirty

Not at all what I'd expected. Was pleasantly surprised that it was a long drawn out story abt the intelligence gathering process rather than merely an action type film focusing...

The Virgin Suicides


An early film of Sophia Copola. Stars Kirsten Dunst and James Woods. It's a film telling the story of an overly strict Math Teacher father in the mid 1970's residing in a...

don't assume that just because you don't have classic reflux sx's (burning and belching after eating the offending agent); that you don't have reflux. Reflux can be quite variable in how it...

Sorry you've had problems with coffee. As I've posted before, I am an espresso fiend, and would have a tough time adjusting to life w/o it. ;) Aside from self-treating yourself for reflux with...
