The Constant Gardener
(2005)

Meirelles' work is flawless.
Best director nominee, Fernando Meirelles, is nothing short of a master filmmaker. Before seeing The Constant Gardener, I naturally thought about City of God and how this movie might compare. My conscience was put to rest as the first half of the movie swept along, overcoming my expectations at every shot. I expect that the 2005 Golden Globes will foreshadow the 78th Annual Academy Awards, by giving the awards to more popular movies, like Brokeback Mountain. If Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhall were in The Constant Gardener, it would have undoubtedly be more exciting for the younger age demographic. Most young people today are unaware of names like Fiennes, and Meirelles, because they don't hear them often. I think the difference between pop-film and classic-film is that the choice to see a movie is at question; I want to see this movie because its interesting vs. I want to be entertained. I am not saying that all pop-film is bad, most of it is, but not all. I am only saying that the movies with more hype surrounding them usually is more recognized by the public.

Walker, Texas Ranger
(1993)

There is no reason to doubt Norris' roundhouse abilities
I will be completely honest, I am a Walker supporter. Should this taint my comment? I don't think so. Say what you will, about myself, or the show, Walker Texas Ranger is one of the greatest shows ever shown on television. I find myself blessed to this very day to have the right, no, the privilege, to watch Carlos Ray Norris Jr. portray possibly one of the most timeless and refreshing characters of our time.

I remember the first time my eyes spotted Walker on the television. The episode had to deal with an evil committee that was supposedly ran by a robot. It turned out that the robot was being controlled by someone else in the room, and Walker eventually delivers multiple roundhouses to that mans face. When I witnessed such TV poetry, I was hooked for good.

Don't watch Walker Texas Ranger if you are at all serious. I would suggest watching with a certain humor in mind. A humor that can see past all of the poorly done plots and acting. Just keep in mind that these people think they have a chance in Hollywood. Which is obviously a pipe dream.

I would just like to say that the whole cast, as a team, paints a mural of what it is like to live in Texas.

who could possibly pass up the opportunity to hear chuck norris perform the shows theme five minutes into every episode. these are the songs lyrics. feel free to live by them every day of your life.

"in the eyes of the ranger, the unsuspecting stranger, who better know the truth from wrong or right. when the eyes of the ranger are upon you, everything you do he's going to see. when you're in Texas look behind you, cause thats where the rangers gonna be" Bless the Hallmark channel and all its glory for keeping such an old horse alive.

Whats a summary?
Apes and lasers, thats all.

Ernie Hudson kicks some behind(edited).

So does Tim Curry.(of course) I need more "lines" i guess.

Heres one.

This 10 line requirement is oppressive and unfair. Aparantly, our corporate masters at the so called "IMDb.com" believe that you all are their slaves. Will we take this? NO! The proletariat shall rise, IMDb.com. The proletariat shall rise.

9 lines.

10 lines, further mucker.(edited)
