I've watched a couple of movies these past days. One was called "Hide
and Seek" and it was the standard fare thriller movie. The main
character was a little girl who was freaked out about her mother
"killing herself" when in reality it was her father who had multiple
personalities who did it<spoiler>. The efforts of the movie was to make
sure the little girl had a pale face and big eyes. It reminded me of a
doll my sister had growing up. Something about that doll freaked us all
out. It had a somber look, pale face, and huge eyes. It kind of harkened
back to the 50's movie the "Bad Seed" where the smiley happy girl killed
people and had a similar doll. Then I watched a movie called "The Curve"
or something that was about a group of college guys who heard that if
your roommate kills himself they would get an automatic 4.0. So they
connive with each other in a twisted way to get a roommate to do himself
in. It was another morbid show. I suppose that is what happens when you
have cable, you end up intrigued and mildly entertained or bored but
hoping. I wouldn't recommend either movie, but I had to see the end.
Both of them had twists at the end. I think M.Night Shalamadan caused
this movie technique to become used. Now if there is not a twist at the
end I am disappointed. Anyway, tonight is guys night so I am thinking of
going to see Superman per Mr.T's recommendation. Who's with me?

Thought of the Day
"I defy you to come up with a better name than Seven."
"Alright, let's see... How about Mug? Mug Costanza. That's original. Or
Ketchup. Pretty name for a girl."
"Alright... You having a good time now?"
"I've got fifty right here in the cupboard... How about Bisquick?
Pimento? Gherkin? Sauce? Maxwell House?"
"Alright already!!"
- George and Jerry, in "The Seven"
