OK A-holes.  It's fixed.  Enjoy the orange links, because I have no fucking idea how to change them.  I basically learned scripting in four days to fix this damned thing. - Andy

The Soloist
« on: January 31, 2010, 10:58:06 AM »
I am not sure why this movie was made.  Someone bought the rights to a book by an L A Times columnist and had the wherewithall to get it produced.  Nothing happens.  A middle class guy befriends a homeless man who was a music school dropout and who is schizophrenic.  He convinces him to go to a shelter.  End of movie.  However, the acting is brilliant.
If I had known that I was going to live this long I would have taken better care of myself.   (Plagerized from numerous other folks)

I saw the trailer on the "Tropic Thunder" DVD, and thought it was a gag, there were so many cliches in it.
