Shared on Mon, 08/28/2006 - 23:06Had a blast playing customs again with people from the site. I feel like everyone is forcing me to get better with all the intense matches, and on top of that they are just a cool group of people. I like it. I am ecstatic in fact. This community is so magnanimous it is awesome. Shout outs: Neks, Soup Nazzi, Clutch, Royal, Mo Ron, Moesly, EggMayne/Radiobirdman, and Freefall. Good games fellas. Chibius, show up to practice sometime bro. 
I'll post a story about the record breaking shutout I managed to pull at the rockabilly show, when I feel better about myself. I did see Little Miss Sunshine last night, and it did help me feel better about failing.
A few random unimportant points regarding the movie and its aesthetic. The family's encomium at the end of the film was touching, if not a bit contrived. The metaphor of the broken down van on the highway I found very interesting, however the overall commentary of the film was a bit too much like a Wes Anderson piece for my tastes. It follows almost the same exact themes as Life Aquatic, but is not executed as well, or with as much style. Little Miss Sunshine provides a much more sensationalistic approach to film making than Anderson does, so if you like Anderson's themes but not his dry style, then this film will be enjoyable for you. It is not as comedic in nature as its marketing machine would have you think, however there are some laugh out loud moments.
Someone go watch The Tin Drum now and post something interesting in the blog comments. I want to talk about this film, and get other people's opinions on it.
