Zodiac

I wasn’t going to write a brilliantbrown review of director David Fincher’s Zodiac, but I changed my mind. That being said, this will be a pretty short review, not because I’m lazy or tired (which I am) but because a) there are already dozens of reviews out there and b) there’s really not much to say about this film.

That’s not to say that it’s a bad movie, because it wasn’t. The thing about Zodiac is that it’s not what you’re expecting it to be. But then again, most of Fincher’s films aren’t (e.g. Fight Club and Se7en). The tagline on the poster is “there’s more than one way to lose your life to a killer.” That’s what this film is about.

I found this link of Facebook yesterday. This is pretty long, but definitely a good read. Consider it a primer for an article I’ve been working on about myself for a while now. So take a minute and settle in for a read or print it and read it later, but keep an open mind when developing your opinions and definitely share your thoughts.

It’s been a while since I’ve reviewed a film and considering we’ve got a whole category dedicated to the topic of film review, I think it’s about time I had a look at one.

Monday, I did something that I haven’t done since I was in High School. I theatre hopped. I went to see Black Snake Moan (mostly because I see anything with Sir Samuel L. Jackson in it) and thereafter, I ninja’d into the last showing of Zodiac. All in all, $10 well spent.

It’s official, BET has lost it’s mind.

I’m sure that everyone knows how I feel about BET. If you’re not sure, here’s a brief synopsis:

BET is the worst channel on television.

Apparently, BET has come to terms with this and has all but given up on the idea of even looking like a channel that wasn’t programmed by nitwits. Actually the more I think about it, apparently, BET seems as though it is actively attempting to destroy any modicum of positive black imagery and destroy the black public image…
