Hello All -

Finally I was able to see “The Dark Knight” last night and I have to say it was absolutely unbelievable. First things first, I know their is a lot of buzz going around about how the late Heath Ledger’s portrayal of The Joker is Oscar worthy. In my opinion, this is absolutely and without a doubt the most deserving performance I have ever seen! He made my skin crawl! I loved Javier Bardem in “No Country For Old Men” and he was scary character, but nothing holds a candle to the sadistic mind of the villain I witnessed last night… nothing!

As for the movie itself, it was fantastic! Everything from visual effects to the costumes were spot on. Every person who worked on this film should take a moment and reflect on the fact that they have just created a masterpiece.

Speaking of a masterpiece, as a writer and knowing how tough it is to get your vision on paper, this screenplay written by brothers Jonathan Nolan and Christopher Nolan (also Director) is unbelievable. There is a lot of depth and hidden meanings in their words, which makes you want to go back and watch this movie again to find them all. Also, their is no wasted words… everything has a meaning!

I definitely recommend this movie as a MUST see at the theatre. We live in a time where the theatres are inundated with movies that, in my opinion, just don’t make the cut. Consumers spend approximately $20 each (with a drink, popcorn, etc.) to go to a movie and be half entertained. This movie is definitely worth the money!

Have fun,

Hello -

So I was playing around on YouTube today and found this video. In my opinion, it is not as funny as the “The Badger,” but funny all the same! Check out the “Trunk Monkey!”

Have fun,

Hello Y’all-

For those of you not local to the Raleigh/Durham, NC area, there is a local automobile dealership group named Johnson. They had the creative team behind the “Caveman” and “Geico Gecco” come up with “The Badger” advertising campaign. I found a mix of a couple of the commercials on YouTube… They are hilarious!

Check them out:

Have fun,
