    You're really good at drawing Clint Eastwood's eye!

    I want to add that...a couple days ago I was driving around and I saw a local church that had on the bulletin board outside on its lawn, by the road, a message that read something like "The Bible has the answer for all of your problems"...

    Thank you, Diaz. If I could specialize in any kind of eye, it would be Mr. Eastwood's.

    As to the Bible and it's solutions, it, too, ends up in favour of killing at least one white man. I don't know if a guy in his mid-thirties counts as old, though. As far as gods go, it seems fairly young.

Magical Unrealism

The same men who say global warming is a hoax, Obamacare has been failing for eight years, and abstinence-only sex-ed works are also convinced even basic gun control is an impossible and useless approach which would only make us less safe.

It seems like the world is burning, but that can only last so long.

Miike Takashi's Sukiyaki Western Django

I am a big fan of prolific Japanese director, Miike Takashi. His movies are not always good (which would be an accomplishment, considering he averages about three feature length films a year), but he doesn't mind experimenting or playing around. Not everything he tries works, but when it does, it can be pretty damn awesome. His subjects and genres vary wildly from a musical about a family running an inn, to a kid fighting goblins, to some of the best yakuza flicks I've seen. Meanwhile, he tends to get good performances from his actors, even when they are children or non-native Japanese speakers. The only time I've been completely disappointed with one of his pieces was a rejected instalment in Showtime's Masters of Horror , entitled 'Imprint'. The story was stupid, and the acting was bad. This was Miike's first all English production, and it showed. So, when I found out one of his 2007 films, Sukiyaki Western Django was in English, I was a bit put off. How ...
