Bloody!

Well, class sucked today as usual. I am really glad I pay my Professor to tell me what a racist, money-grubbing bastard I am. It's pretty much my only purpose in life.

Anyway, went to the Alamo after class and saw Shoot 'Em Up starring Clive Owen and Paul Giamatti. It was fantastically ridiculous. Clive Owen is barely ever not shooting someone or something and almost always has a carrot in his hand ("they improve your eyesight"). There is a sex scene which gets interrupted by a SWAT team and does Clive break rhythm? HELL NO, HE DOES NOT! Shooting up a dozen or so men without ever withdrawing from his penetration session. Funny stuff. It reminded me a lot of Sin City with the over-the-top noir presence but in this film it is meant to be funny so you don't feel out of place when a thug gets stabbed in the eye with a carrot. Amazing. Paul Giamatti was an impressive villain, and reminded me of a chubby Jack Nicholson. You have to love the man though, he makes "creepy bearded lonely pervert with a power complex" as hilarious as it can be. If you like action, see this movie. Better yet, if you like comedy see this movie.

Then, I killed time until seven for Bloodshots screening Group A. There were about thirteen films in our group (out of four groups) and, honestly ours was the second best. And I am more than fine with that. Seeing how most people couldn't deal with the 48-hour time limit, whether for lack of creativity or resources, made me feel really good about the product that we put out. It was actually very funny, and we got a lot of laughs where laughs were supposed to be. That was nice. Hopefully, it will be up on YouTube before long and I can post it here.

Time for beddy-bye. I have been in a constant state of exhaustion this whole week, and it sucks very much.
