Doing well bro. I've been recruiting some of the good guys over here. All in due time.
You know I'm excited for the playoffs. I think the Heat got he best draw out of the top 3. The Pacers and Knicks create matchup problems for the Heat, the Sixers, not so much. Should be a good warm up for the Celtics.
I'm everywhere you've never been & better than I've ever been

Can't find a good clip for it but LOTR: The Two Towers had a pretty freaking awesome intro with Gandalf Battling the Balrog of Morgoth
Lebron James will never be as good as Michael Jordan, thus we should get rid of his nickname, "The King".

No doubt. I still remember the first thing he said. "Through fire and water. From the lowest dungeon to the highest peak, I fought him, the Balrog of Morgoth. Until at last, I threw down my enemy and smote his ruin upon the mountainside."

The first 15-20 minutes of Saving Private Ryan is, IMO, the most powerful depiction of the raw violence of war. You can feel the men's fear on the transport boats. Most knowing that their chances of survival were slim once that ramp came down. Truly gripping cinema. Hanks and Speilberg also did a fantastic job with Band of Brothers and The Pacific.
Side note: The part in SPR that p!ssed me off was the part where the Jewish soldier was stabbed by the Nazi soldier while the coward hid around the corner. Then 15 minutes later they try to make him look like a hero.

That scene pisses me off every time. I can't believe that guy stood on the stairs rifle in hand, and let his friend die.

Me either man. It made me feel helpless because you knew he wasn't going to do anything. I'm glad our soldiers now don't have that kind of spirit

How did anyone forget the first Twilight? right after the opening scene all the twihards were screaming like crazy! But for real, Rounders, SPR, and Pulp Fiction are a close second to Dazed and Confused!!
