Tom Hanks @ MindSay

Kinda bored now, I watched the movie The Green Mile, I love that movie, I have watched it a few times already. I love every Tom Hanks movie, I think. He doesn't make a movie that I can think of at the moment that I do not like.

 

I love music to, here is one of my favorites, Danger - Keep Away by Slip Knot

I'm not what you think
I'm not what you think
I'm not what you think
Or am I?

Or am I what you think?
Or am I what you think?
Or am I what you think?
You can never, ever know
You can never, ever know

Please keep far away -Far far away
Keep far away -Far far away
Far away -Far far away
Far away -Far far away
Please keep far away -Far far away
Keep far away -Far far away
Far away -Far far away
Far away -Far far away


I won't let you walk away
Without hearing what I have to say

I won't let you walk away
Without hearing what I have to say

That place in my mind,
Is that space that you call mine


That place in my mind,
Is that space that you call mine

That place in my mind,
Is that space that you call mine

So please just trust in us
Just trust in us
Trust in us
Us

So please just trust in us
Just trust in us

Where have I been all this time?
Lost, Enslaved, Fatal decline
I've been waiting for this to unfold
But the pieces are only as good as the whole
Sever myself from my own lie
And cut up the only thing that was right
What if I never saw you again?
I'd die right next to you in the end

That place in my mind
That space that you call mine
That place in my mind
That space that you call mine

I won't let you walk away
Without hearing what I have to say
Without hearing what I have to say
Without hearing what I have to say
Without hearing what I have to say
Without hearing what I have to say

Congratulations Tom Hanks you've officially ruined every single Dan Brown Novel to Movie I ever could have hoped to watch. Bastard! How you managed to snag the role of Robert Langdon in "The DaVinci Code
 and "Angels and Demons" I will never know. You must have seriously paid off or slept with (hell, even threatened to sleep with) the Director just to get that damn role. There were so many other, better potential actors that could have played the part so much better. For starters George Clooney! You and him are two separate ends of the spectrum when it comes to acting. He's suave, handsome, and intelligent. You are CRAP! You will forever be emblazed in my mind as Forest Gump you sad excuse for a Robert Langdon.

 

You have ruined every movie you ever starred in.

1) Cast Away: two and a half hours of you shitting behind bushes and talking to a damn volleyball. Not worth my time and I regret watching it.

 

2.) Forest Gump: Proving that even retards can run across the country. Life is not like a box of chocolates....it's like a crane game. You never know what you'll try to get and have it fall out of your grasp.

 

3.) The Terminal: What the fuck was the point of this movie? It was some guy trapped in an airport...this was almost worse than "Cast Away"....

 

4.) Toy Story 1 and 2: I'm a fan of Buzz....Cowboys are antiquated.

 

5.) Saving Private Ryan: So glad you died....

 

6.) Apollo 13: Well no fucking wonder the damn thing blew up. Forest Gump was driving the spaceshuttle.

 

7.) Philadelphia: I always knew you had AIDS.

 

8.) Polar Express: You've ruined christmas for me too...Is there any other holiday you want to ruin as well?

 

9.) Joe vs The Volcano: I still wonder how you survived that one. I would have certainly thrown you in.

 

10.) You've Got Mail: Not from me you don't. I wish it would have been anthrax.

 

I hate you Tom Hanks.

Awesome!  Smashing Pumpkins' "Today" just came on, and I love this song.  I can't even remember the last time I heard it, it's been that long.  I love that something as simple as a song can just make your day. :)

I'm watching the movie Cast Away right now.  They're showing it on tv.  My favorite character is definitely Wilson, the volleyball that Tom Hanks draws a face on and talks to.  Good thing they created Wilson, or it would just be Tom Hanks talking to himself.  As much as I like Tom Hanks, that would've gotten old quickly.

I heard a review of "The Davinci Code" on the radio a few weeks back, a line from the review struck me as being really silly.  It's probably a failure on the part of the screen writer for Tom Hanks to utter the words "We have to get to the library, fast!"

So let me start by saying I just read the book and finished it yesterday. Well, let me clarify that. I "listened" to the book, and my friends and girlfriend would argue that I haven't "read" it if I "listened" to it. I find this a bunch of hooey. Anyhow, I saw the movie last night. Of course to be expected I got to the theater and there were some dipshit protestors outside. With their little signs up that say, "The Da Vinci Code is a lie!" Well my response to this is, "no duh." Apparently what all these protestors and naysayers have trouble with is the word fictional. It is based on a book people and even says on the book it is a work of fiction. Of course we made our own sign and that said "It's called Fiction morons." And we waved it as we drove by. I don't know about you, but I get upset at people who take themselves too seriously. You can believe in what you want, but stay the hell out of my life with your beliefs. This is almost as stupid as when the Mexican Americans were offended by a talk dog in the Taco Bell commericals. Or Italians being offended by the way they are portrayed on the Sopranos. Or Lesbians being offended by being portrayed as murderers in Basic Instinct. Or more recently the flight attendants being offended by Flightplan. I mean have we come to this? People are offended by EVERYTHING these days. What the hell happened to people haveing a sense of humor?

 

    I mean I will get to the movie in a second. I think anybody would half a brain or some common sense would know that some Italians are mobsters...let's face it folks if they weren't we wouldn't have The Godfather trilogy or Goodfellas. I just wish people would learn to relax. Now we come to The Da Vinci Code which I must say for a work of fiction is packed full of details. I mean it is so real that one would question whether or not it had some fact to it. I wish I could say the same for the film. But for those who don't know what it is about I will give a very quick overview. It is about this secret society that are keepers of a secret and there are only four people at anytime that know about it. It is a secret that would crush the foundation of the church. It says that Mary Magdalene was not a prostitute that she was from royal blood and fathered Jesus' child. The prostitute part was a smear campaign carried out by the church to make anything she said not believable. Then there is another secret society called Opus Dei that will do anything to keep this secret from ever being told. Even if it involves killing.

     So the movie as it were was a snooze fest. Nothing like the book which is why I shouldn't be allowed to read books...lol. I am always disappointed with the outcome. Well not always, if I didn't read the books I may have liked it better. But the movie is so heavy handed and boring. plus they leave out some important parts and add on an ending nothing like the book. The best thing my girlfriend ever said about this is, "only take away, never add." When you are dealing with a book that is so well regarded as this you should stay true to it. So, I digress, people that protest this movie to me seem to be just like the people in the film. These people will stop at nothing to get people to not see the film. Why? Because it will make some people question whether or not this really happened. Well I have news for you folks we may never know. It was so long ago that people may never find the evidence. Me, I don't really believe in a higher power. To sound cliche I would like to quote John Lennon as Ferris Bueller once did...Lennon said, "I don't believe in Beatles, I just believe in me." I don't denounce God, but I am a realist. If someone can find me proof that he existed than I will believe. But I have trouble putting my faith something I can't see. I truly believe all I need is faith in myself. That is what god's gift to us was. Free Will...he gave us the right o make our own decisions.

    Then you have people like my cousin who is a born again Christian who is 40 and still a virgin because "he is waiting for Jesus to provide him with a woman." I have to guffaw at this...I have told him time and time again, Jesus will not provide you with anything. You have to get it for yourself. Hence the free will part. Anyhow i got off on a tangent, the point of this post was to say read the book don't see the movie. And have a sense of humor folks, life is too short to be angry at everything.
