It's just as horrible now as it was when it was called Forrest Gump.

Forrest Gump was a good movie.

Edit: Oh look, they were written by the same person! :-/

And The Reader was on the list of books we could choose from for our IRP's this year. Everyone I know who's read the book or seen the movie says it's pretty bad.

Forest Gump is awesome!
Haven't seen Ben, but I'd probably still like it.

<Exasperated sigh> What have I been trying to tell you all this time?! And yes, it's "largely a brainless excercise" but it's still a kickass movie!

When I set out from the boy's attic window, my head was so full of competing plans and complex strategems that I didn't look where I was going and flew straight into a chimney.

Something symbolic in that. It's what fake freedom does for you.

Realizing, of course, that someone being able to understand any of that post depends on them knowing what QFT means?

'Cuz you know, I don't.

Anyone seen Inkheart yet? Is it as bad as they're saying?

QFT not QTF. I think it means Quoted For Truth.

Thanks.

Ugh... A friend of mine is dragging me to see "He's Just Not that Into You," tomorrow.

I need cooler friends.
