Bringing it back to soil

Wednesday, February 12, 2003 » general movies thought

I was asked whether or not Flash should be allowed on a Website devoted to the superhero, the Flash. The answer to that is: sure.

So I now have about eight days to finish reading Gods and Generals. Also, I like how the movie version already has almost a hundred votes for it on the IMDb.

Speaking of movies, I was going to do a top five list of movies that whose titles I suspect were developed before the actual script of the movie, the only example which I can remember at the moment being Deliver Us from Eva. I was also thinking of a list of movies where the titles obviously came second, such as Cradle 2 the Grave. And, while I'm touching on that, since when does DMX get higher billing than Jet Li?

I was on the bus a few days ago and saw an ad proclaiming, "In a violent relationship, your partner isn't the only one who's scarred for life." My first thought was, if there's that much violence involved, can you really call it a relationship anymore? Then that got me thinking, what if two people have a special kind of relationship where they just constantly antagonize each other from the beginning? Like, when one of them gets home they would be greeted by their spouse with a flying kick, and then they would immediately enter into a dramatic fight scene, traveling from room to room and punching holes in the walls and furniture. Then at dinner, they could fling dishes across the table mercilessly.

I feel like I've only just scratched the surface.
