the JR ≥ SAGA∙∙∙∙LOG Life is RANDUMB and I'm Lost & Working on it...

It has been almost 2 month since i have updated my list of movies watched. I know when i did my first movie related post here, I wanted to make it almost a weekly thing (since I was going through movies like a fat man @ the sizzler)… but things come up and priorities change and here is the movie recap. Now just as a refresher here is the breakdown of the different lists, with maybe a couple updates:

• Library Worthy- These movies will go into the vault and probably be watched on a repeated basis. The likelihood of these movies getting old to the JR is either slim to none.
• 1-Timers- Unfortunately these aren’t repeat worthy to the JR. They are not considered to be bad movies, just movies that the JR couldn’t  watch over and over and over and to infinity and beyond.
• On D-fense- These movies cause the JR to question his movie choices at times. Sometimes the movies are interesting, but he just can’t quantify his interest and sometimes the movies just catch him off guard.
• SHIT-LIST- These movies are, as you can imagine, complete shite according to JR… most of the time he feels that he deserves a refund of his time and then a stipend for even having gone through the experience, but there will always be a lesson learned when watching alot of the movies from the shit-list… and that is sometimes you can be fooled twice, thrice, french fries.

Movie Highlight: One Week (2008)
This movie really caught me right between the uprights… I actually just watched this movie last night and was so completely blown away by the story that I really couldn’t stop thinking about it. It is one of those movies that for me, really hit one of those close to home spots (not really close to my home but the whole home hitting in general type deal).

I’m not going to go into a synopsis of the movie, that’s why I provided the IMDb link above, but I am going to talk about how this movie made me put quite a few things into perspective. When people go about their day to day lives….most people don’t tend to think about their own mortality (unfortunately/fortunately I do spend a few frequent or ever so leisure passing moments thinking about it) and really post the question to themselves “What if you had a day to live? A week? A month?…. What would you do?”….. What I am saying doesn’t seem to be coming across clear, but just bare with me while I take to sometime to open the door to clarity… while watching this movie, it made the JR really begin to try to quantify a lot of the things He Had Done, Could of Done, or Should of Done…. and when he looks at a lot of the common denominators among everything, he realized that it all seems somewhat Moo ( because it’s a cows opinion… haha right, moving on).

What this movie really did was make the JR take stock of what he can do today and for the future. Like a majority of the few, the JR is still lost and is still trying to work everything out.

To try and be more concise, the JR really enjoyed this movie and a lot of the thoughts that are still stirring through his brain are still having a hard time becoming written or spoken word. It would be best to go ahead and watch the movie for yourself and see if the story actually hits one of those home spots.

Side notes: Good Acting, Great Score, Dam if I could find an Awesome Norton and go Cross Country,  it receives a 96% ApproBall wRiting (ya ya we know Filipino is Him), and last Pre-Apologies for the randumbness of what was suppose to be a  Movie Review of sort.

Other Notalbles:

• Fast and the Furious (2009)- Well the JR has been a fan of the franchise since the beginning and if they were to all of a sudden continue to make fast and the furious 5, he would be there to enjoy it.
• .45- This movie just had me saying WTF most of the time, its a definite watch for you Milla Jovovich fans or anyone interested in watching a decent plot.
• Crank High Voltage- Complete Cheese Dick Action Paction…. But Jason Statham is still one of my hands down favorite Action Heroes
• A Bug and a Bag of Weed- this is a one-timer for anyone that has worked for an electronics chain that is now defunct; the JR believe he should of thought about doing their business model also.
• Dragon Ballz Evolution- Was a complete waste of potential… Hopefully if there is another one, there should be a new goku and also a better director and writers. Basically everything new except for Chi-Chi
• S. Darko- Stick with the classic… the JR actually fell asleep to this one.
• Drift GTR- What a complete fakeout… wasn’t putting much hope in the story line but they could of stepped up the togue at the very least 100 Fold.
• Dane Cook: Isolated Incident- Dane Cook your previous specials were way better, but this had a few choice bits… but overall hands down.

Well this was somewhat lackluster interms of actually reviewing, recapping, or even offering anykind of beneficial information for you peoples aside from the JR just saying, “Thats good” “That Sucked” “mehh!”…. but thats just the JR’s method. Well until the next installment of movie reviews, recaps, randumbness, etc, and et al.

And now the JR is flushed like a colon cleanse. PEACE!
