Pineapple Express Rolls In as a Hit!

Pineapple Express, although unknown of at a first glance, is actually another hidden comic piece of Seth Rogen's genius. When a loose court processer (Rogen) witnesses the murder of drug dealer, he freaks out and turns to his idiot of a drug dealer. (James Franco) They spend the majority of the rest of the movie dodging crooked cops, more idiot drug dealers, and all other crazy madness as they attempt to escape the hitmen. The majority of this is your usual Seth Rogen comedy, but the last half hour of the film really brings out the comedy as new laughs explode out in every different direction. If you can in to the theatre (There was a theatre guard outside mine) you need to catch Pineapple Express.

The Dark Knight Rocks!

Yes, if to no surpirse, The Dark Knight is extremely popular and is an awesome movie. The Joker plays the main reason for this. His character may appear insane, and he mostly is, but what he comes up with is a masterpiece of destruction and terror. Hats off to the late Heith Ledger. On the other hand Batman strectchs to new heights to bring him down and unleases a new arsenal of tools, including a slick motorcycle, a faster suit, and sonar. The story line moves fast through Gothom City, with plenty of twists and turns in every scene. The Dark Knight is a must see to all audiences that have a tolerance for this kind of film.

Democrats Need to Man Up

As you may or may not know, the Democrats have decided to take a five week vacation right before voting on a new oil drilling bill that may lower gas prices. Now I believe with gas rising over $4 a gallon, we need to start re-investing our resources. The Democrats seem to be frighted that by even being in the presence of the bill, sends them packing. The American public is fed up with the high gas prices, especially me who plans on getting my first car in the next year. The Democrats need to act, or they are going to find heavy loses in the next elections. The President needs to call back the Democrats for a special session of congress. Only then can we begin to finally end the escalation of gas prices.
