I would like to begin this post by thanking you, my loyal readers. It has been a long year. Without you I would have no outlet for all of the movie and television related junk rattling around my brain. I know there aren't many of you, but just knowing that someone is reading is incredible.
Movies out today:
Dragonball: Evolution - I watched this show all the time when I was younger! I didn't even know what Anime was back then and life was so much simpler. Now, however, you have to be an uber-nerd to like Anime, but that's not going to stop me from seeing this movie. My cover story? I'm in love with Justin Chatwin and James Marsters. (Cover stories are easiest when they're true).
Hannah Montana The Movie - I don't want to ruin my 100th post with something so dumb.
Observe and Report - Poor Seth Rogan couldn't get his mall cop movie out before Kevin James'. BUT this one is rated R so there is bound to be much more hilarity AND I love Seth Rogan.
Yippee-ki-yay Goodies!
YES! My 100th post is starring none other than, my love, Bruce Willis! In honor of his awesome-ness, I am making this post 3 times as amazing! So enjoy as I write endlessly (and a bit obsessively) about the greatest Action Movie Hero of all time.
Underrated movies of the post: The Whole Nine Yards. Not only is this movie funny beyond all reason, it is the perfect mix of action and comedy. On one hand you have Bruce Willis being badass (with a hint of crazy) and on the other you have Matthew Perry acting as his neurotic and hilarious self. It's wonderful.
Hudson Hawk. Again, a nice blend of action and comedy with a little adventure sprinkled on top. This movie has a very intriguing story and enough twists and turns to make you wonder what the heck is going on halfway through. And oldie, but a goodie.
Fifth Element. This movie doesn't get half as much of the credit it deserves. As science fiction goes, this movie has it all: pending destruction of the Earth, hot hero who always manages to save the day, a strange woman who just complicates things further, a weird-looking bad guy bordering on insane, a slightly annoying but overall funny sidekick, and a nice old guy who's always helping/explaining what's going on. What more could you ask for?!
Movies to see: Dragonball: Evolution, Observe and Report, The Whole Nine Yards, Hudson Hawk, The Fifth Element, and ANY OTHER MOVIE WITH BRUCE WILLIS. Seriously, he's amazing.
I don't have any trailers, but here are 3 upcoming Bruce Willis movies that sound halfway interesting:
Surrogates - Set in a futuristic world where humans live in isolation and interact through surrogate robots, a cop (Willis) is forced to leave his home for the first time in years in order to investigate the murders of others’ surrogates (imdb.com).
A Couple of Dicks - A comedy about two cops whose adventures include locating a stolen baseball card, rescuing a woman, and dealing with gangsters and their laundered money (directed by Kevin Smith!) (imdb.com).
Pinkville - Army general William R. Peers (Willis) investigates the My Lai Massacre, an event in which several hundred Vietnamese civilians were killed by U.S. soldiers (co-starring Channing Tatum and Cam Gigandet) (imdb.com).

Quiz 1: so this quote seems really, really familiar, and although i've seen die hard 3 and the whole nine yards, i have to go with c because it's so familiar and it has been a while since die hard 3.
Quiz 2: no idea. 12 monkeys sounded crazy, so i'm guessing b.
Quiz 3: i like to think i know die hard pretty well, and the only other movie i've seen is fifth element, and it's been a REALLY long time and i've only seen pieces of it, but from what i can remember of the character, it sounds like something he might say. so, b.
in conclusion, c, b, b. and may i say boo-yah! i didn't realize i was winning this!
Seeing as Janette is having technical issues posting, she has texted me her answers. These are from 3:10 pm, so Katie you'd better hope she wasn't right because she would win! Haha.
Janette says:
#61 = c
#62 = a
#63 = d
c, then a, then c again.
Oh, and random bit of Bruce Willis news that you failed to mention: He just got married to a model. Who's like, 20 years younger than him, but whatever.
ashley, i know i'm too late, but i'm majorly impressed with 3 quizzes in one
