An Experiment in Dusty

So as I look at my Netflix que and noticed that Dustin Hoffman was in about 6 of the movies. I know he was amazing as Captain Hook and the funniest as a Focker. Scared the shit out of me in Straw Dogs. But most of his "classics" I have never seen. So every Tuesday, for the rest of 2011, I will Dig up a Dustin Hoffman classic.

Ratings System and You

Hey there, Billy. You know when you are watching the picture movie with your favorite stars and you have that "funny feeling" inside you? Don't worry, that feeling is totally natural. Most boys your age start to feel it, too. It is commonly known as a "rating your movies" moment.

Like, as you watch Clark Gable and you want to tell your friends about is keen new roll, you would use this ratings system to inform them if it is a good movie, or total crap.

1- Bad movie. Stay away. Only recomend this movie to people you dont like.
2- Good movie. You liked it and was worth tour time. Some people might not like it, but you did.
3- Great movie. Recomend this to your friends. Liked it and you think they will too.
4- Amazing movie. Knocked your socks off good. You think about it for days after. It is a must watch for your friends.
5- Simply, enfuego. You will hound your friends till they watch it. You will watch it multiple times. Best of the best.

So, Billy. I hope this cleared up any confusion. Next time i'll tell you why theolder boys cut holes in the bottoms of their popcorn buckets.

Day 8: "When You're Strange"

Being a Doors fan, I wanted to see this. Narrated by Johnny Depp, this intimate look into the mystery that was Jim Morrison and The Doors.

We all knew drugs and booze were the 5th and 6th members of the band, but these eliments along with the warped artistic mind of The lizard king was one of the late 60's greatest musical groups.

Plain and simple, this is my very first 5 star review. Even on a good sound system this movie was phenominal.

Some people think Jim was a poet, who's soul was trapped between heaven and hell. Others think he was just another rock star that burned out. The fact is, anything that burns out, has to be on fire.

5 Stars. Perfect.
