I Miss This Band....




I don't deserve this. I don't deserve an ounce of this. See it any way you want. Feign concern for me.
Demonstrate your stupidity. You have the nerves to ask me if i'm ok. I'm not okay. It's not okay. It's never okay.
Only quicksand swallowing me - and I'd spit on your fucking hand were it offered to save me.
Poison boy past the point of sickness. I am innunity myself. Bless the lucid moment.
Staying were there is safety. Here, inside. I put myself where it feels like life and death collide.
You have the nerve to ask me if i'm okay. I grasp the hand you place on my shoulder and push it away.
Keep them away. Keep them all away from me. Keep them away. Keep your hand off of me.
Staying where there is safety. Here, inside. I put myself where it feels like life and death collide.
You have the nerve to ask me if i'm okay. I grasp the hand you place on my shoulder and push it away.
I push them away. I push them all away from me.

Really People?

so if you found someone's wallet with their paycheck and business card inside wouldn't you think to call them because their life might be ruined without that check???   

today there was someone who picked up my wallet and saw my goofy drivers license picture, my paycheck, a one dollar bill, my business cards, a card to a fabric store, my $100 rebate card from ATT and my debit card with a cat, puppy and humane society picture on it and has decided to make my life horrible for the next couple weeks. canceling cards and not having access to money, $25 going to the dmv to get an id in 2 weeks, and i have to pay $25 to get another paycheck. 

there is a company that literally kicks you when your down by charging you to re print your already horrible paycheck. that was stolen.

aaaand i narrowly saved myself from being in a fight with a disrespectful tall black man who was with his family (kids! and i think his Mom too) in the middle of the bike path on the beach on el segundo. you werent looking and walked right in front of me and i lost control skidding out of the way into the sand and stopped to say sorry and you want to "throw down" ???  really?

Whats so funny about peace, love and understanding?

Top 2 movies better than Terminator 4

I know some kids who were really looking forward to Terminator 4, but now they don't want to watch it because of bad word of mouth. To be honest, it's worth watching. I doubt I'll ever watch it again until it's on TBS at 4am some day, but still, worth one watch.
But just to make sure you guys know the difference between a good and a bad movie, I'm going to make a list of movies that are better than Terminator 4. Don't feel like going to a theater and risking the possibility of sitting next to a fatty? Make it a blockbuster night with these gems. In no particular order...

2.
Hartman.
Sinbad.
Squints.
A story about mistaken identity, this one will have you on the edge of your seat. Watch as Sinbad narrowly escapes 2 psychotic hitmen time and time again. I don't want to spoil anything, but the climax involves long distance running and burgers. A must see.

And the number 1 movie that's better than terminator 4 is....





1. Clifford
This is a coming of age story about a Priest who looks back on his adolescent life with his uncle Martin. Christian Bale may show off his grimace in a lot of movies, but if you want to see a proper grimace on screen, check out Charles Grodin in this movie. I get chills just thinking about it. The end of this movie takes place in a prehistoric amusement park, and yes, there is a mechanical T-rex involved.

I'm sure there are other movies that are better than T4, but for now this list is going to have to do.

My Thoughts On Terminator 4

I went to see this movie simply to see what it was all about. I remember watching all the previous Terminator movies with my big brother growing up because he was (like a lot of my friends) obsessed with the movie. I remember getting teary eyed at the end of T2 I think? when arnie is sinking in the lava (atreyu style from neverending story). We all know he won't be back.....Well anyways, I went to see T4: Salvation yesterday and was pretty disappointed. However, not sure what i expected in the first place. Here goes: (Sorry big bro, never got what you saw in those action flicks).

-Christian Bale acts exactly the same as Batman as he does John Connor. Forced deep voice, laughable,over-dramatic moments, you can tell this guy thinks he is the bees effing knees. I am not a fan of him in any other movie really, except for "the machinist" where his forced raspy voice goes seemingly unheard and his range of acting is taken to the limit. In T4 I think John Connor announces who he is over 13 times, and is someone who would talk about themselves in the third person..UGH weird. YOU CANNOT DENY THE FACT THAT HE USED BATMAN VOICE IN THIS MOVIE.

-Onto the guy who plays Marcus Wright. In the opening scene he has a wicked accent. Mid-way thru the movie it's completely gone. It comes back a tiny bit here and there. Who knows where it went? Where is he supposed to be from? Ireland? The casting director thought casting an Irish person should be someone with red hair and freckles I guess...ughhhh since Irish people like myself JUST HAVE TO BE GINGERS......stereotypes...over it (for the record I am nowhere near ginger) Sidenote about Marcus Wright: Personally I think he is wicked cute, except for the end when he's in the skynet station suddenly wearing all white, he growls to himself and you can see food in his teeth. gross.)Did they not see that in the editing room? Whats with all the up close shots of him growling?? I heard several people in the theatre (including myself) laugh out loud at the sight of this.

-Moon, the hot asian chick in the movie. Apparently they cut the scene where she is to show her boobies after meeting marcus wright. The part where its dark and they are going to try to catch some shut-eye before traveling back to viva la revolution base. And you can tell right where they cut it. It's the most awkward scene ever. She is rubbing her hands on her clavicle. then suddenly shes not. no build up, no let down. just a woman touching herself for 2 seconds....awkawardly i might add.

-What's with the little girl in the movie who is mute? I remember telling Lilly I thought she would do something crazy climactic at the end or why else would she be a part of the story? well apparenly for the sole reason of having a cute kid on screen who has big puppy dog eyes. Lilly mentioned how the little girl handed J Connor the detonator when they all reach the helicopter at the end so he can blow up skynet. Was that her moment of glory? I couldn't tell without any effects music. Oh well.

-Visuals were pretty cool. Some of the sound effects a little overdone.

-Music: WHERE WAS THE TERMINATOR THEME? alice in chains "rooster"?????? REEEALLLLLY?!?!?!?!? Watchmen had a great music soundtrack.

I will say one positive thing. The young man who plays Kyle Reese did a great job. He was also really great in Star Trek. Who knew Charlie Bartlett was so talented? He is def that annoying kid in drama that doesnt know when to quit....and now he's a millionaire!!!!

Terminator: Salvation official TAWS Review!

Soo, the movie I've been waiting to see since 2003 came out this past Thursday. Terminator: Salvation!!! It surely silenced all the people who said a good Terminator movie couldn't be made without Arnold or James Cameron, but not because of who you think. Sam Worthington stole this movie from Christian Bale without a doubt. The whole terminator choosing to be human angle was done perfectly. Marcus, Sam Worthington's character, was so interesting that I feel like not too many people would have missed John Connor if he wasn't in the film at all! That's saying a lot. The Russian dude from Star Trek also did a pretty good job as a young Kyle Reese from T1. Moon Bloodgood? Hot(awesome real name too), but corny. Common? Great rapper, but corny Resistance fighter.

And don't get me wrong Bale is an awesome actor but he didn't have enough screen time for me to care about JC. And the scenes he was in, he was that annoying "dark raspy voice guy" that he played the hell out in Batman Begins and Dark Knight. Honestly, the movie could have been 3 hours and I wouldn't have minded one bit. The first 3 movies are so classic (yes T3 is a classic. Go to hell if you're hating on it) because of the perfect balance of action and character development. I guess the directors felt we knew JC well enough from T2 and T3. But honestly with a franchise that has this much good material to work with it could have been more like Watchmen where each character's background was told thoroughly. A lot has happened since the bombs fell at the end of T3. Whats John Connor been up to?!?

I'm stopping right now because I can nerd out on Terminator and talk all night about this. I HAVE DETAILED FILES. As much as I adore this beloved franchise I grew up on at the end of the day it's just a movie and I suppose there's nothing wrong with action, action, action. Even though the first 3 movies had it all. Get stoked on T5 people. I give Terminator: Salvation 4.5 out of 5 Mugsy Bouges.

Stop Feeling Down


i need you to be the strength of widows and soul survivors
i need you to be as fearless as new mothers and new fathers
i need you to be the hope of hearts who lost true love
i need you to be the might of their first kiss
i need a purpose and i need a reason
i need to know that there is trophy and meaning
to all that we lose and all we fight for
to all our loves and our wars
keep breathing
keep living
keep searching
keep pushing on
keep bleeding
keep healing
keep fading
keep shining on
this is for the hearts still beating
