Independence Day is on and he is giving that speech at the end before everyone goes off and fights......it give me tingles.
Good morning. In less than an hour, aircraft from here will join others from around the world. And you will be launching the largest aerial battle in the history of mankind. "Mankind." That word should have new meaning for all of us today. We can't be consumed by our petty differences anymore. We will be united in our common interests. Perhaps it's fate that today is the Fourth of July, and you will once again be fighting for our freedom... Not from tyranny, oppression, or persecution... but from annihilation. We are fighting for our right to live. To exist. And should we win the day, the Fourth of July will no longer be known as an American holiday, but as the day the world declared in one voice: "We will not go quietly into the night!" We will not vanish without a fight! We're going to live on! We're going to survive! Today we celebrate our Independence Day!

I saw Cloverfield tonight. I liked it up until the ending. The end just killed anything good it had going for it.

Just finished The Science of Sleep, and talk about some trippy ****. If you like Michle Gondry's visuals and directing you will like this. It's purely his style and feel. Don't expect another Eternal Sunshine... though, it is not that caliber of writing, but still a danm good movie. Takes awhile to get going but well worth the wait.

I absolutely loved Eternal Sunshine, but I couldnt finish Science of Sleep. It was just too confusing and kind of boring.

I just finished up watching The Bucket List.. I was so touched by this film and not afraid to admit I teared up. Recommend this to everybody here, no wonder why so many people gave it a Must Go on Fandango. Morgan Freeman voice is amazing...

I never really cared for the critics reviews, because they're the opposite of what I think. I'm reading on IMDb and Fandango and basically everyone gave it a must go on fandango and alot are saying how solid it was on IMDb. Probably depends on yourself too don't always judge by the critics.

This was pretty solid. It had a good story, good laughs, and you actually felt for the characters. This movie should inspire people to do things with their lives, it shouldn't recieve bashing.

Eternal Sunshine was a great movie, totally agree. Charlie Kaufman is a genius, he writes these really bizarre, quirky, yet fantastic scripts. I just saw Being John Malkovich yesterday, by Kaufman, and it def had a similar feeling to Eternal Sunshine. both have ingenius plot s

Got that sitting waiting to be watched, was going to last night but ended up going with The Chumscrubber. Definitely going to get around to Science of Sleep in the next few days.
