Hollywood ending. its all nice. The “Good Guy” Wins. Why wouldn’t he? Last night I watched “
Law Abiding Citizen
”. I thought, “It didn’t do well, maybe it took the other, everybody dies, everybody learns road.” Maybe it was a tough as nails thriller that took no prisoners and set the failing prison system on its ear. But noooooo, I was wrong. After an hour and a half of potential it decides the lawyer wins. But Why? He is the bad guy. If he isn’t, make it possible. I root for the “Bad Guy” the whole film. And that’s weird because it’s Gerard Butler. If I ever though I would root for him, it would be because of the booze.
Fernet-Branca 
was what I was drinking tonight. In retrospect, it was more of a tequila movie. I still think I would have been disappointed. I think
Jamie Foxx 
and
Gerard Butler
are to be commended. This film had the all the earmarks of a good thriller, but someone didn’t want to step on any toes...
(some time later)
Let me explain: I wrote that first paragraph completely loaded. I think I did okay. Anyway, Law Abiding Citizen is one of the movies we talk about in episode 4. I think 4 is pretty good. Matt drops knowledge about
Freddy
, opines about
The Crazies
, and almost cries over one less
Corey
. I can’t even keep up. I am excited about having the opportunity to talk about
The Hidden
, one of my old stand-by recommendations. We had so many problems recording it, I’m surprised we actually got it done. Sorry about the lack of
beer
openings. We drank all our beer during the first take. I hope you like it.
cheers,
Jason
