Hollister Clothes For Puppies

Qualche chiacchiera su Sanremo.

I state that I normally do not watch but Sanremo on Saturday, after finishing a long game of Doom the Boardgame emerge penosamente sconfitto, ho pensato potesse essere divertente guardare giusto il finale di Sanremo. Dopo ho dato un'occhiata (o meglio, un'ascoltata) anche alle canzoni eliminate. Due pensieri veloci a proposito delle canzoni:
la canzone di Povia ha, senza sorprese, una melodia ridicola ed un testo che si riassume in "la verità assoluta non la sa nessuno a parte naturalmente me che sono Povia e sono un figo e quindi so anche cosa pensano i morti". E pensare che c'è gente che lo definisce il "nuovo De André". Prima anche di imparare a scrivere musica dovrebbe imparare l'umiltà.
In compenso Simone Cristicchi è sempre più bravo e la sua canzone era l'unica cosa decente uscita da Sanremo.
Obviously I avoid commenting on goats monotonal friends that continues to expel ruining the panorama of Italian music or the painful trios composed of elderly singers, tenors and principles unknown in search of attention.

But apart from the songs, I also have a couple of thoughts about the festival in general. If
Bonolis as artistic director with San Remo had become watchable, now it's back to the pitiful standard of previous years. I do not know the other bets, but the piece that I saw, including orchestral versions of songs for children and police bands playing the theme from Star Wars (see who was playing I would expect the best Imperial March), the artistic director, appeared in the hands of an elderly acid. But in addition to
entr'actes painful, I was amazed to watch the 10 minutes given to Maurizio Costanzo that plunged the program level even lower. The frenzy began with a live interview of three workers in Termini Imerese so excited that did not even say their name without stuttering. Leaving aside that you could easily record the interviews so as to better understand the problem the crisis without the emotional curtain stupid to be outlines Maria de Filippi, I find it brilliant as Costanzo then continued, giving the floor to Scajola Bersani and the public. The first was unable to say just two things that a group of hooligans Berlusconi (two words that are synonymous in reality: a supporter of Berlusconi can not rely on reasonable arguments have to shout and talk in slogans) started to cackle like crazed monkeys. What he said is acceptable, however, summarized in the "if Fiat does not reside at the table with the unions, the three workers with their colleagues can only hope for a future career appeared weeping in junk programs like this." The second one threw up the classic slogan summarized the usual bland three basic concepts that these monkeys do not think Berlusconi would be able to understand completely:
- the government can do something only with the help of the opposition. Quindi il governo da solo non è capace di far nulla. Non mi stupisce essendo formato da vallette, leccaculo e pubblicitari. Quando c'è un problema l'idiota chiede agli altri come risolverlo, la velina risponde "ballando!" ed il pubblicitario propone di colorare tutto di azzurro;
- il problema è della crisi. Quindi qualsiasi problema economico prima era dovuto all'euro, poi all'"eredità del governo Prodi", ora alla crisi. Insomma, il loro lavoro pare non influenzare in alcun modo l'andamento dell'economia. Suggerisco di eleggere dei lombrichi la prossima volta a questo punto. Così non dobbiamo neanche pagarli.
- bisogna risolvere il problema di Termini Imerese in modo "moderno". Quindi senza sindacati. Then sending away the workers to kick ass. So how are you doing now. So Scajola or an idiot or very clever because he virtually said to the workers' succhiatemi cock "but he took the applause.
Fortunately Clerici intervened thus shortening the theater of propaganda to the emperor.

Everything so painful? No. Some things are positive. For example, the proclamation of the trio that would be challenged to win you have raised so much controversy that next year I hope to be finally decided to vote only in the hands of experts. The popular vote will only lower the quality of everything gradually and continuously until not only will the garbage.

you also tell me what you think in the comments. Until next time.

Alpinestars Leather Cleaner

Avatar


After a week of official release, I went to see the latest film from Cameron, and frankly, I am in great difficulty in reviewing it. The problem is that, having already read dozens of reviews praising the revolutionary masterpiece, comparing Post to dozens of other landmarks like Star Wars movie, it's really hard to be objective. For this reason I decided not to be. I will be extremely partly because this movie is not at all like me, and then emphasize especially the negative side.

The story also now know the stones, but to summarize the completeness there: on a planet called Pandora a corporation has found a mineral land of incalculable value. The problem is the native population, called Na'vi, which has one of its main villages on the main field. For this reason, the Corporation initiated the project "Avatar" means a group of scientists led by Dr. Augutine has created beings with inanimate genetic code and part human part alien remote controls to open diplomatic relations with the alien population. Jake Sully, a former marine who lost the use of his legs, after the death of his brother, he unwittingly finds himself involved in the project. Obviously Jake fall in love with the local population and fight against his fellow men to defend the planet.

Avatar The main problem is obvious: not only the story is not original but it is obviously copied from other successful films from Pocahontas to Dances with Wolves, passing dozens of other films in this genre. The plot is so predictable as to arrive to be unintentionally funny in places, especially in characterization, real shapes of cardboard, without personality, with the exception of the protagonist. The ultimate absurdity of the film catches up with the two villains of the story, so much "over the top to look like comic book characters or cartoon.

The classic defense of this criticism is that I've read in many reviews: the plot is easy to be understood by all and that masterpieces such as Star Wars have the same characteristic. But I can not disagree more. Star Wars, although the characters simple and very classic story, set in a setting these two innovative and highly original. Avatar no.
Cameron's Aliens are creatures less "alien" that I've ever seen in a science fiction movie. Besides being visually identical to a mix of men and cats, have rituals, philosophy and behavior that is a mere copy of those of mixed Native Americans to those of other peoples of the third world. The only really original feature developed by Cameron is the fact that to tame the beasts on the planet, the aliens are "connected" to the animals sharing the mind and body. The idea is expected to be expanded, especially in the romantic relationship between the protagonist and the co-star alien. And instead, no! When the two finally come to the point, the effusions that exchange are the most human has ever seen.
But at least the planet, Pandora, is the original? In part, yes, some images, like the night sky, fans shudder. But while others, like the giant tree, know that they have seen and recycled, like everything else.

The only reason I can recommend this film is the visual aspect, as already said a thousand times in billions of reviews, sets a new standard on both side of the 3D CGI. Too bad that, as already happened in Titanic, the entire visual system is not a story just as worthy but just another rewrite of a story already seen a thousand times.

conclusion, if you're not passionate about cinema, and then chances are you do not know the story, consider this film because it is certainly the best telling of this story there is. If you're keen, take a look to enjoy the 3D and CGI, but do not expect anything more than this: the 300 million spent to make this film, not even $ 1 was spent in the script.

When Your Male Dog Is Peeing Out Blood

Drag Me to Hell


Finally! With a screenplay remained in the drawer since the days of "Army of Darkness, one of the directors who gave life back to the '80s horror genre that gave him fame and great back to us.

Christine works in a bank making loans, arguing promotions with colleagues and licking his ass to his head like everyone else. Until one day an elderly gypsy woman asks for an extension of the mortgage of the house and in front of his obstinate refusal, the spear against a curse.

trivial idea and classical gives life to the classic jumble of frightening and surreal situations in constant balance between the serious and the surreal in an atmosphere that a lot of American classics such as Evil Dead or Army of Darkness already mentioned. After years of horror film pretentious and exaggerated Raimi returns to his roots as the genre fun and humble: Drag Me to Hell does not take herself seriously and gives everything to disgust, frighten and entertain the viewer.

Ultimately, a lot of movies that I recommend to both fans of the genre and those who want to bring to horror. Put aside the various and crap like Saw and get carried away by Raimi and his delirious new carousel.

Does Jcpenney Salon Do Leg Waxing

Nemico Pubblico


This movie I wanted to see. A little 'because I had said something wrong, a bit' because the gangster movie just does not understand them. But in the end I was persuaded to go against my instincts. And once again my instincts proved reliable.

"Public Enemies" tells the story of bank robber John Dillinger and his accomplices from the apex of their careers until the collapse at the hands of the FBI sqadra led by Melvin Purvis.

From a directorial point of view and photograph the film is splendid: some images would have to be framed so evocative and well done.
In all other aspects of the film instead collapses painfully: the story is slow and boring, the scenes "action" is a static and a slow pace that it can be to make it look more lively dialogues, also because of mounting a horrible and always completely disconnected from the narrative. Finally add in the framework and already having a predictable script and a barely adequate acting, even by big names like Depp and Bale.

In conclusion, a poor film that does not deserve all the hype minimally creatigli around by critics and audiences. Avoid this unless you want at all costs to know the history of Dillinger.
