Road to Guantanamo Movie Review
Wow. I love my country, but this movie makes me ashamed to be an American. Read what I thought about the film and what I think about Guantanamo Bay at my Road to Guantanamo movie review.

Keep it in the garage: Cars Movie Review
It took me a while, but I finally wrote a movie review for Cars. I think Pixar is the greatest CGI company out there, but what the heck were they thinking with this piece of crap?
I just got done watching Cars, or at least as much as I could stomach. All I can say is: wow. How could Pixar, the most reliable CGI animation company ever, create such a dull, boring and inane film as Cars? It may look pretty, but the movie has absolutely nothing to contribute to the world of movies. I don't even know how children could get a kick out of it. More of the Cars movie review.

Merry Christmas I guess
Merry Christmas to the three people who read this blog. You know who you are. Yes, I have three split personalities...
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows
The title has been announced for Harry Potter 7: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows. Pretty good title, although I was leaning toward J.K. Rowling's first idea, Hermione and Ron finally get it on (ewww, who wants to see that?)
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix hits theaters in July, 2007, and Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince arrives November 2008. So does that put the last Harry Potter in 2010? A few years yet, kiddies...

Seahawks Chargers Showdown
Can you believe it? Seahawks had a four game lead with three games to go. Then they had a three game lead with three games to go. They are a half a game away from clinching a ride to the playoffs, but they cannot win. They have not looked sharp, they can't convert on third down, and Shaun Alexander and Matt Hasselbeck, the two men who were supposed to take the decent season from inconsistency to greatness (mainly thanks to an EXTREMELY easy schedule), have been completely flat.
Right now, the Seahawks suck, and they face the Chargers on Sunday. They are definitely the underdogs, but maybe that is exactly what they need. Either way, they are making me nervous - San Francisco is nothing to scream about either, but it could come down to the final game, and how pathetic would it be if the Seahawks failed to make it? Hush, Erik. We won't even discuss that.
By the way, I went to the Seahawks-Niners game. It was the most miserable sporting event of my life. It's not just that the game sucked, although had the Seahawks won everything would have just been fine and dandy. No, in the process of walking to the stadium, my friend Jessie and I got rained on so hard that we were soaked to the bone by the time we got to our covered seats. I had never been to a football game where I wanted to leave before it started, but we spent the whole time shivering. My feet were swimming in water. I was so cold I almost subscribed to the Seattle Times just to get a free blanket.
To make matters worse, it was windy. It was so windy that power was knocked out hours later at my house for nearly two days (four days at my parents' house). Back to the story, it was so windy that Jessie almost got decapitated by a ladder that came flying down from the catwalk on the roof of the stadium. Inches to losing her head. Or at least getting a bruise.
Seahawks suck, but I'm still confident (barely) they can make it to the playoffs. Then they might get killed, but oh well. And I was cold. It was windy. Trees fell down. I had no Internet. It was a bad couple of days.
