    It sucked.


    The Eagle Huntress:

    Mongolian girl bucks tradition and attempts to train eagles. Traditionally, the practice is handed from father to son.

    This documentary is beautifully shot. It's flat out majestic. Good story, too. Highly recommend.
    Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

      I don't see how being from Shakespeare's pen makes it an infallible movie.

        I disagree. As do most critics.

          And Dances With Wolves was supposedly better than Goodfellas.

          I don't pay much attention to critics.

          Honestly, I thought Romeo Must Die, while not great, was at least a more entertaining version of Romeo And Juliet.

            Phew. I thought he was talking about the Zefferelli version, which I love.
            What kind of cheese are you planning to put on top?

              We liked it in high school because we got to see two seconds of Juliet nipple. Of course, to see that, we had to sit through an entire minute of Romeo butt.

                That's the old version, 60s or so right? Saw that in high school. I liked it.

                    40YO? No. Top Secret? No. They are not the same.

                    Think more John Hughes type stuff. Basically, anything that Not Another Teen Movie made fun of, is in play. And add in stuff like Revenge of the Nerds and Porky's.

                      Have you ever seen Shakespeare using the original text? The man knew how to write. He could put down the most subversive dialogue or scenes, and people would applaud him even though it could mean losing their freedom or their lives. That in and of itself isn't inherently worthy of praise, but he did it without making it seemed forced. MacBeth, the whole opening scene was a stick in the eye of newly passed British law forbidding witchcraft. Knowing it to be ridiculous, he put a scene of witches front and center and made them an integral part of the play. Without them, the entire story of MacBeth doesn't exist.
                      "The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command." George Orwell, 1984

                      "One does not simply walk into Mordor. Its Black Gates are guarded by more than just Orcs. There is evil there that does not sleep, and the Great Eye is ever watchful. It is a barren wasteland, riddled with fire and ash and dust, the very air you breathe is a poisonous fume." Boromir

                        Although it was a very long time ago, I read his actual plays with all the old language and such. I'm sure I missed some things, due to the differences compared to modern language, but he was brilliant.

                          Yes, I have, well most of them. Thanks for the long-winded and unnecessary history lesson. I'm fully aware. But it didn't address what I said.

                              It means that a director or writer REALLLLLLLLLY has to suck to screw up an adaptation of a Shakespearean play. Almost has to be intentional about it.

                                I ended up watching it last night. Then today I get home from lunch and I hear "Cruel to be Kind" by Letters to Cleo. My roommate was watching it and I just busted out laughing.
