• Trying to summon attention span for Part 2 of "Che." I think I read a year ago that the two parts have different styles. Hoping that's true. #
• Hmm. Watch "Che" or play FIFA for two hours? Which will be more rewarding…? #
• "Che" it is: Bolivia. Ironic if pt2 suceeds like Cuban revolution but pt1 flounders like Bolivian campaign did. #
• Of course, this narrative format conveniently skips over Che's most brutal period, the part of his life that rarely makes it onto a T-shirt. #
• Why show Che's executions of prisoners, gays, priests & children in Cuba when you can skip ahead six years and show him as a loving father? #
• WTF is Lou Diamond Phillips doing in here? #
• Che's Bolivian gang is dysfunctional; we never saw why the Cuban rebels were more efficient. I sense scapegoating of the native Bolivians. #
• Yep those Bolivians were too self interested and lacked revolutionary spirit. Maybe Che also failed to inspire like Castro, despite his rep. #
• PT2 is interesting. Conflict in failure. PT1 was pristine, dull. Also pt1 ignored villains; 2 has cool CIA op on the trail. Tension works! #
• Minimalist expo recalls Crazy8s lyric: "it's hard to tell the good from the bad when they're both wearing camoflauge green jeans." #
• Thought I spotted Jeffrey Wright in small role as wounded rebel, but he's uncredited. #
• Great scene as lookouts for dwindling rebels discover the large number of army in pursuit of them. More of this kind of filmmaking needed. #
• SPOILER: Che's been captured! Looking grim. I hope he makes it; I wonder what will happen… #
• Good scene: Che's intimate conversation with soldier guarding him. Nowhere near enough of this kind of personal material in these movies. #
• What? Che's accused of executing someone? Not this Che. It's all CIA lies!!!!! #
• Death scene also excellently done; but Soderberg must be tool of rightwing: we all know CIA really pulled the trigger on Che! #
• My iPhone's winter coat was torn and frayed. Replaced terrific Marware Sportsuit for bargain price of $6.99: http://bit.ly/dCFuQg #
• @culturepulp That O clip is so disingenuous on so many levels Twitter is incapable of coping with a response… in reply to culturepulp #
• Recent diet of Breaking Bad, Fringe, and movies like Death in Love, wife complains about "ickiness." Any overlooked chick flicks I can rent? #
• Help Wanted: Justice Dept hiring civil rights lawyers. "Mental retardation, mental illness" preferred but not essential http://bit.ly/d71wC1 #
• Neat NYT interactive budget chart http://bit.ly/bZN01L #
• Walter Russell Mead: "The global warming movement as we have known it is dead." Nice summary of latest "science" goofs: http://bit.ly/ccbquo #
• I dislike these recap shows, but apparently I forgot the entire last season of Lost. #
• Bad sign when the recaps of episodes you've already seen are incoherent and confusing. #
• Kate must have been in Indiana Jones' fridge when that bomb went off. #
• I've always thought that the recurring slow, sad music cue in #lost borrows heavily from the chorus of Hall&Oates "One on One." #
• #lost time shifting is contagious: wife is tired so hr2 will wait until tomorrow night when flash of white light reveals nothing else on tv. #
• Has @Breitbart been banned from Twitter? Did he OD? Was he eaten by #demonsheep? After yesterday's flood, it's lonely around here w/o him. #
• "It is strange for a President to complain repeatedly about ten-year old policies and then not propose to change them." http://bit.ly/cpAmFm #
• Labash keeps falling of my radar, but he is hilarious. If only there were some way to keep up with him… http://bit.ly/8xkZ3l #
• Suspect parenting: Currently creating family-safe edited version of Airplane! for the kids to enjoy this weekend. Shit will not hit fan. #
• Labash: "Facebook is porn. With porn, you watch other people take off their clothes and abase themselves in public." http://bit.ly/coZQFL #
• Good for @andrewbreitbart: Exasperated Right Rejects Birther at Tea Party http://bit.ly/dmogFO Farah+WND are evil twins of conservatism. #
• Night of the Creeps, 1986. Aliens that look like ugly naked babies. This came highly recommended. http://bit.ly/a6qp1I #
• Ah, ugly baby aliens + sorority girls. Shows far more promise now. #
• Well, aliens + sorority girls + axe weilding asylum escapee. Now we have a movie. #
• Natch, evil frat guys. Waiting for movie wth good frat guys battling evil nerds. Wait, that was called "Old School," wasn't it? #
• We have a corpsesicle! The corpsesicle is killing David Paymer! #
• For a B-movie, #nightofthecreeps had got all the cliches + humor, awareness & lots of ideas. And a zombie David Paymer. #
• Anticipating obligatory shot of slithery alien slug inching up coed's bare leg…. #
• "Girls, the good news is, your dates are here." "What's the bad news?" "They're dead." #nightofthecreeps #
• Fact: #nightofthecreeps did the lawnmower vs. zombie challenge before Dead Alive. #
• #nightofthecreeps maybe 2nd best American zombie movie of 80s, after Return of the Living Dead http://bit.ly/93dyZX #
• Shot of slug on leg never happened, unless you count leg of crippled wisecracking male roommate on toilet. I do not. #
