The Token Awkward Start

Okay.
So...recently some people have been taken some interest (believe it or not) in what I've been posting up about what I have to say (aka bitch) about random movies I've seen.
Then I got the recomendation to write a blog...which I dismissed immediately and without thought...I mean, I dunno, the whole blog idea has always turned me off.
However, a persistant certain someone (yes, you know who you are, and you better be fucking reading this because this is your doing) pointed it would be convieniant to have everything togetherand sorted instead of randomly posted on the internet, saved on my computer, written on my school books, and on scraps of paper beside my bed....yah, I'm not so organized.
And she had a good point (for once XD)
So, my plan is to slowly start collecting the random posts and scribbles that have accumulated over the years... o.0 god, this will be quite the task.
Anyway, this is so fucked...I feel like I'm talking to myself...it's bad enough that I bicker with myself in my mind, but now I'm actually putting in on paper (or text) and its just concrete proof that I need a life.
Oh and Jo, Imma bitch a little more about The Departed...cause I know how much you despise that movie ;)

Snatch.

Directed by Guy Ritchie…biggest names being Brad Pitt and Benicio del Toro. The plot, similarily to Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels is huge mess of people and confusion…in a good way. It’s good, and it’s a style that he makes work.
There are people searching for the monster of a diamond…and people stealing it off of each other, along with a series of rigged boxing matches with a participant that isn’t exactly willing to win and lose when he is supposed to.
Brad Pitt plays Mickey…the gypsy boxer who has a mind of his own. Definitely my favourite character by far…They joke in the film about them having an accent that is not understandable…it not being English or Irish, but seemingly a combination of them both, mixed with pure gibberish. However, I found myself understanding him quite easily…and I’ve come to the conclusion, that his accent sounds extremely similar to that of a Newfie! I know a few people, a friends family actually, that come from Newfoundland and that’s exactly what they sound like. Anyway, off track.
I was actually a little disappointed by how similar I found it to be to Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels…
Some of the same actors were used, some of the characters were extremely similar, the plot was a similar tangled web of murders and stealing.
It was still good. I just would have liked more to see something a little different from the director…because I really enjoyed Lock Stock…
The short, witty comments almost make this movie for me. I laughed non stop…
It was good…I’m going to stop, cause Im not even going to attempt to begin to loosely describe the plot.

8/10
