    "And most of the evils of society can, in fact, be cured through information. We have a society that has been disinformed and based on the disinformation has made irrational choices. And that's what I mean by 'ignorance.' People, who ordinarily might be smart, are deprived of the data by which to make a rational decision, don't have the data to do it."

    Re: Favorite movie?

    So many, hard to pick an absolute favorite. LOTR series - even though it's not what I'd classify as "classic", my attention span is pretty limited, so that's the current favorite. Blackhawk Down I've watched numerous times. Boondock Saints. And lets not forget Big Booty Revenge, of course.

    Have to concur on that one. I love action movies where the american propaganda doesn't shine too well through, and the story is real. I so remember the some of the scenes from real life, when it was sent on TV back in 93........and we saw a few of them from the americans camera in the army too, to teach us a couple of things..


    But in the end. If it is all time favorite, then it must be "Silence of the lamb". It is just a piece of art. Comments and camera movement is just incredible. Shame you now can really see that it is an old movie. Effects, and quality on various stuff...

    Howl's Moving Castle
    Porco Rosso
    Laputa: A Castle in the Sky

    LotR is high on the "normal" movie list.

    It's on Starz right now. National Treasure just ended. Tune in

    I'm also going to add The Order. It was kind of a sleeper hit, but really good. It's about a sin eater. I won't say much more without giving away too much.

    To other people I guess he was the bad guy, but I thought it was cool that he killed them and got away with it... I love it when the bad guy wins.
