...........im sorry id make a more intelectual argument but im just too tired and sick right now
in fact one of the things i want to do and that's on my bucket list is to go back packing like that.... somewhere not to built up...like in south america or in the east. to explore the world through experience the lives of local people and to get by through hard work and the generosity of others (cus well im still a kid and i want to believe that there are kind ppl out there (insert puppy face) )...i think that would be an amazing experience.

Wow, my thread is still alive...
Anyway, I am going to watch The Cave and The Mist (which I saw already but I liked it, so...).

Everyone forgot about Tyler Perry  especially the movies with madea (madea goes to jail, diary of a mad black woman, madea's family reunion). really funny with a good story behind it.  |

Gran Torino was actually good. I didn't think much of Clint Eastwood and his movies until I saw the movie.

[REC] 2007, this was the movie quarentine was based off of (not nearly as good) it's pretty short less than an hour and a half just make sure you get subs.
if you want something funny Hot Fuzz is ok.

Holy crap, I used to watch these shows in French back in elementary school. I actually never watched it in English... how does Captain Haddock swear in English? Man, I had no idea his name was a fish back in the day Lol
