All Consuming : HariSeldon

A story about the last time I consumed "Troy (Two-Disc Special Edition)"

by Wolfgang Petersen

I learned to immediately burn any gift you don’t like, and call it an offering to the gods. Sorry grandma it’s an artifact of western culture.

Not a bad film but, DANGER do no use this movie instead of reading your greek history books, or learn to file a course repeat form and pay the four credit fee again. Even Wikipedia will get you a better grade and quicker. Only in this movie did a hobbit kill Archiles.

It is smarter than me. It can do algebra and calculus.

A story about "Comparative Economics (2nd Edition)"

nobody@allconsuming.net (HariSeldon) — Sun, 11 Mar 2007 03:43:47 GMT

Comparative Economics (2nd Edition)

by James Angresano

Comparative Economics is so rarely taught in the United States that the publishers are not interested in this text. So you can read any edition for your classes.

I Have Found It (Kandukondain Kandukondain)

It’s the best Jane Austin adaption I’ve ever seen sticks closely to the book.

Why I recommend "pqi 1GB usb 2.0 flash chip"

nobody@allconsuming.net (HariSeldon) — Sat, 01 Jul 2006 09:11:50 GMT

pqi 1GB usb 2.0 flash chip

This 1GB USB chip is now my new computer called “Chippy”. I always keep one of these loaded with everything I am working on in my pocket. You can always find a usb comuter at library, college, or a coffee shop so I don’t have to lug “Clunky” the laptop around anymore. The only time it was too small was when I was editing a short movie.

Why I recommend "Amen"

nobody@allconsuming.net (HariSeldon) — Sun, 23 Apr 2006 06:05:41 GMT

Amen

by Costa-Gavras

This was very hard to consume but quite worth it.

nobody@allconsuming.net (HariSeldon) — Sat, 22 Apr 2006 06:53:06 GMT

Juliet Of The Spirits - Criterion Collection

by Federico Fellini

My favorite part is Fellini saying that LSD didn’t really have a impact on him because that is how he normally sees the world.

A story about "Babylon 5 - The Movie Collection"

nobody@allconsuming.net (HariSeldon) — Sat, 01 Apr 2006 05:11:59 GMT

Babylon 5 - The Movie Collection

by Richard Compton

TNT let Straczynski re-edit these movies so they could introduce the new cable fans to the 5th season on TNT. The commentary track on Thirdspace: Boxleitner; Jeff Conaway , Patricia Tallman and Steven Furst are a hoot.

Wild salmon seasoned with cedar honey and a smear of cranberry over basmati rice.

A story about "16 Blocks"

nobody@allconsuming.net (HariSeldon) — Wed, 01 Mar 2006 10:04:12 GMT

16 Blocks

by Richard Donner

Never get on a bus with Bruce Willis, Sandra Bulock, or Keanu Reeves.

It’s a Bruce Willis movie with his most conflicted character yet.

I think I would have shot Mo Def or at least taped up his mouth.

Why I recommend "Roller Derby"

nobody@allconsuming.net (HariSeldon) — Tue, 07 Feb 2006 10:52:40 GMT

Roller Derby

Take all the theatrics of fake wrestling then add 100 women actually in full contact competition and you’ve got Roller Derby.

Tom Cruise plays JarJar in this movie

Ken Watanabe, Billy Connolly ate this movie up.

A story about "The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou - Criterion Collection (2-Disc Special Edition)"

nobody@allconsuming.net (HariSeldon) — Thu, 19 Jan 2006 09:30:25 GMT

The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou - Criterion Collection (2-Disc Special Edition)

by Wes Anderson

Without thinking I now sing Bowie in Portuguese.

I had a large costume ball (2000 people} to attend. I did not have a costume. Two days before I found two aluminum bubble wrap bags that they freeze a ton block salmon in on the factory ships. Using hot glue and mat knife I turned this into a shark costume. During the night I would stick a leg, an arm, or my head in an orange stocking cap out of the mouth. But mainly I was going for the “jump the shark” metaphor.

I was immediately attacked by at least 50 members of Team Zissou, some in the jumps suits, some in the Spedos and forced to dance with them for the rest of the night.
