Restructure Grubbs.. Smith is an obvious cut.
Amazon doesn't match for the Criterion Sales. They have their own.
Link to Barnes and Noble Zatoichi deal

With the 50% off the set would cost 112.49 rather than 225.00

Any Zatoichi fans out there?

If you are, just a heads up, there is a fantastic Bluray/DVD compilation being released November 26th by the Criterion Collection! Better yet, Barnes and Nobles 50% off sale has started and runs till Dec 2nd. Regular price is about 225.00 or so. All 26 films are in the set.

This album sounds like Godspeed You! Black Emporer went digital.
Just got it off the interwebs, and I think it's my favorite album of the year next to Daft Punk's Random Access Memories. Anyone familiar with BOC?

I don't necessarily feel Will has to be the one that catches him either, maybe have Will die and bring on another FAU agent.

At some point, he will get caught, and the story will be over.


Being that the credits say that the show is based on Red Dragon, and in that book he was the one to catch him, I would think Will would figure him out and catch him on the show.

I have seen it. If you are a fan or student of Kubrick's work I highly recommend it. So many different takes on a plethora of psychological and social undertones in one film. Great documentary about how surprisingly complex the Shining really is.
Dark Horse adapts George Lucas's original draft of "The Star Wars"

quote:

It’s no April Fools’ prank! Dark Horse is honored to announce a dream project: working with J.W. Rinzler, executive editor at LucasBooks, and artist Mike Mayhew (Avengers) to adapt the rough-draft original screenplay which spawned the biggest franchise in film history! Three years before his 1977 film, George Lucas put down on paper his first story set in a galaxy far, far away—a tale of fantastic adventures, daring escapes, “lazer swords,” romance, and monsters. A story of Jedi Annikin Starkiller and General Luke Skywalker, an alien named Han Solo, and evil Sith Knights. The screenplay was titled The Star Wars!
Canes should sponsor it. Everyone who has a certain number on their ticket would win a free caniac box for every cart off. The Cane's Caniac Cart Off. Then you could hear Jerry Romig over the PA in the dome say "FREEEEEE CAAANNNEEESSSS BOOOXXXX!!!"

been wanting to see this
Every plot summary I see have it closely resembling Star Trek 5 The Final Frontier. Same concepts and journey in some ways..
quote:

Ridley Scott has made a beautiful, atmospheric film, utilizing 3D sparingly and well. There are shots of planets in orbit that stun, and there are moments of nail-biting anxiety that are perfectly put together. But the visuals of the film cannot hold up the whole thing, and the script (by Damon Lindelof from an original draft by Jon Spaights) is a completely unsound foundation. The script is incompetent in a way that is hard to believe while watching the film; characters reach out to pet obviously scary space snakes, characters speak in bad, baldly expositional declarations, characters have no character. Once the team gets to the vase chamber Prometheus slowly begins unraveling, and the terrible dialogue and uninspired acting that was merely a nuisance during the more interesting first act becomes an unbearable problem. Finally by the end the movie has turned into a truly moronic monster mash that resembles the final chase of any given Friday the 13th film more than anything else in Scott’s ouevre.
