7/11    Have you ever seen a movie where all of your friends liked it but
        you just don't get it or don't like it? I'll start:
        \_ Wouldn't the world be a dull place if we all liked the same stuff?
        Totoro
        Spirited Away
        \_ For me it's often I like it but none of my friends do as is the
           case with Spirited Away.  Try not to watch it to "get it."  But
           try watching it to enjoy the story telling.  It may help you
           appreciate it, and maybe even "get it."
           \_ what, sometimes a story is ... just a story?  Not some huge
              sledgehammer moralistic or egotistically philosphical wank?
              \_ You really need to see Spirited Away on a big screen
                 (projection TV or projector->wall is good) with good
                 sound to appreciate it.
        Being John Malkovich
           \_ One of the few movies I chose not to finish.
                 \_ If I need a bigscreen and sound systm then how is it any
                    different than any other hollywood summer fx flick?  A
                    story shouldn't need that.
                    \_ sometimes, it's not the effect, but the plain simple
                       gorgeous shots done by say kurosawa.  big picture is
                       not the same as big effects.
        Being John Malkovich
           \_ One of the few movies I chose not to finish.
        \_ There's something about Mary
        This is Spinal Tap
        \_ Spinal Tap was so fucking funny!  "But... this one goes to 11" and
           you *know* you're the #1 Big Bottoms fan!
        Forrest Gump ..
        Worst in Show
        Big Trouble In Little China .
        Austin Powers (all of them)
        \_ If you didn't like the first or even the second one, what made you
           watch the last of them?
           \_ cable and peer pressure -- I am weak.
              \_ Austin Powers doesn't work with cable modem.  Bastard.
        \_ clerks
           \_ Or any movie by Kevin Smith (is that his name?)
                                        \_ costner
                                           \_ idiot.
        \_ Gone with the wind: I saw this on the big screen years ago and it
           was easily one of the shittiest movies I'd ever seen.  Her acting
           in particular was quite painful.  He looked like he knew it was a
           shitfilm and was enjoying mocking it all the way through.
        \_ Shrek
        \_ Nemo!  Do not see Nemo!

        \_ this is VERY BORING. Why should we care? UCB is dead.

1/26    Wozniak says the the Steve Jobs movie clip is historically inaccurate,
        that Jobs was not so much a visionaire that Jobs claimed to be, as Jobs
        was just looking to make a few quick bucks. Why should we trust
        Woz's words over Jobs'?
        \_ Seriously? Read both the Steve Jobs biography and Woz's autobiography.
           Nobody contests that Jobs was a scumbag. Also: the lounge in Soda Hall.

1/3     I declare LG LED is amazing. I switched.
             -long time Sony owner, no longer have any faith in Sony
        \_ How does sports look on it? -Old Skool Plasma Screen Guy
           \_ I don't watch sports. Dumb people with a lot of loyalty
              watch sports. You drink beer too?
              \_ Loyalty is a good thing. Do you cheat on your g/f too?

12/6    Lesson learned: don't talk about Monty Python on a date. Women just
        don't seem to get it.
        \_ You are dating the wrong women (for you) then. My sister-in-law
           loves it and yet I don't find it all that funny. It's not a
           gender thing.
           \_ is she a nerd? does she laugh funny? is she actually decent looking?
