I Know Who Killed Me

Best movie ever.

Lindsay Lohan was truly on top of her game here. She is so method it's fascinating... I mean, I heard that she went to real-life strip bars just to learn how to pole dance and everything! I wonder if she even visited the hospital to pay visits to the amputees? Probably.

The story was so deep. There were so many nuances and intricacies, one can only hope to catch half of them... if they're lucky! I mean, who knew that the movie poster revealed all there was to the story... Two Lindsay Lohans and a whole lot of the color blue. Perfect 10.

The suspense, the music, the ironies, the acting, the directing, the cinematography, the editing... I could only hope to achieve such prime filmmaking...

Wall-E

I love Pixar. The end.

Actually, there's more... I am lead to believe that this is Pixar's only and yet most political movie to date. Let's just look at one key jab: fat people. How interesting that the story, 800 years after Earth's destruction... Which probably has to do with global warming (please send in Al Gore, thank you.)... Has humans living on some different planet in outer space, where they've become complacent and lazy. In turn, their laziness has lead to obesity to the point where they cannot even move and furthermore, they refuse to get up from their floating chairs. These fat blobs are being taken care of, every whim and need is fulfilled. As a result, their bones have shrunk and fat has taken place.

What exactly is Pixar saying? Let's look deeper...
