And I remembered I didn't go past the first few lines because all the movies referred to there were recent ones--I hadn't seen any of them. Including your Leo version of Gatsby.<br /><br />So, prompted by your comment, I went back to it. I read it. Even though I don't know about the movies, I now have more arguments on why movies are crappy anymore, and why I will be better off watching Roman Holiday for the gazillionth time ;)Sriram Khéhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06724218458246880137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27946614.post-87407815481525110472013-07-21T13:48:43.169-07:002013-07-21T13:48:43.169-07:00Hey now, the Trail Blazers will rise again! The t...Hey now, the Trail Blazers will rise again! The team's slogan has been "rise up" for the last five years...instead of "hands behind your back." <br /><br />On another note, did you read the Slate article about Snyder formulaic approach to writing the screenplay for the perfect blockbuster? Very insightful, another reason why I prefer reading instead of films. Although I do appreciate the work of Leonardo DiCaprio...Zach Jonesnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27946614.post-52492028256695079672013-07-21T09:57:50.530-07:002013-07-21T09:57:50.530-07:00Casablanca.

A couple of years ago, we referred to that team as the "Jail Blazers" with all the legal issues the players had ... muahahahaSriram Khéhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06724218458246880137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27946614.post-15904216401235275662013-07-20T19:01:38.927-07:002013-07-20T19:01:38.927-07:00Well, there are movies lie Roman Holiday.

Naturally what attracts us and will always continue to attract us are the things that appealed to us as youngsters. It simply the way life is, I think. Your daughter will probably sneer at Roman Holiday and snore through it.<br /><br />Discontinue your Netflix account. Waste of time watching movies - and they don't make them like before anymore. Drive instead to Portland every week, when its cold and wet and watch the Trail Blazers - problem is you are in the back of beyond and no real sport comes to the great state of Oregon :):)<br /><br />Rameshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11782192840421019943noreply@blogger.com
