Leon is one of my top ten movies of all time. Absolutely astounding.

I was just wondering... how do the Turtles and Splinter get money for pizza before meeting April?

Your thinking Argo, which was directed by Ben Affleck, who is quietly becoming a top tier director.

So, if I remember right, Event Horizon was the one with Lawrence Fishbourne and was amazing. Ringu I remember seeing but was drunk. Will rewatch it. And session 9 sounds really intriguing. Thanks.

Argo is about Batfleck stealing a Canadian story and making them Murican to make all the money

It's his first real swing and miss. It was ok, but nowhere near as good as his other movies.

Cool. I've got so many second tier movies to watch. I go to the movies 2-3 times a month and can't watch them all between both my wife and myself' picks.

Krampus was good too. That guy has a promising career ahead of him.

All 3 of them are movies with shorts in them. Trick r Treat is my personal favorite out of the 3.

I hear ya buddy. Still trying to get my GF to watch some classics like Silence of the Lambs etc. Got her to watch The Departed, Pulp Fiction and Citizen Kane thus far. Usually she wants to watch Indie movies.

My problem is I forget the movies and can't even remember if I've seen them or not.

Great, a new blog with reader mail (including one from Dog Boy) and it's 6 pages of movie talk.

Dog Boy, it's been over a month and still no trade proposal from you. Why is that? You like to criticize others' trade proposals but have none of your own.

Here are some from last blog to try to save this blog discussion:

How about Maatta for Henrique? The Devils have a TON of centers but lack defensemen. Henrique has two years left at $4 mil.

How about a 2nd and/or Pouliot for Nielsen (Wings) with $1.25 retained? He's 33 and is being paid $5.25 for the next five years. I doubt JR wants to take that on, but the Wings could be ripe for the picking. I've never seen so many bad contracts with so many soon-to-be RFAs. When you are one of the worst teams in the league and you are over the cap, you are doing something horribly wrong. Think of the mentality of signing 34 year old Daley to a three year contract at over $3 mil per. They haven't signed AA yet. Why?? []

I still think we might be able to pry a young center (Lindberg or Karlsson) away from Vegas for a draft pick(s)/prospect.

I wonder why we haven't signed Dea yet. Could he be part of a potential deal for a center to give the other team a center prospect in return?

Anybody a fan of Shooter with Marky Mark? I loved that movie and they turned it into a TV series. Season 1 was surprisingly good and season 2 just started.

I do not see a team like NJ which has been one of the worst scoring teams in the league the past few seasons trading away a F for a D.

I do not see DET retaining salary on Nielsen for such a meh return.

Also please let the record show that everyone was being civil and having fun conversation before t train showed up.

Hope you're having a great day sweetie.

Yeah, about movies. And sure, you are the humanitarian and I am the problem. Gotcha.

But since you responded in earnest to my post, I'll respond to you.

You are probably right about Jersey, I just think there might be a fit there with so many centers, virtually no defense, and a GM who is familiar with and probably likes both Maatta and Pouliot where other GMs probably have a less than favorable view of them. I also considered Zajac which might make more sense.

Detroit has to do something. Even with LTIR for Franzen, they have no money to sign AA to an extension. I suppose they could get him relatively cheap, but even then, next year they have 4 RFAs and only Green coming off the books. Maybe they wait until next year to resolve that.

If you gave us Horny and a 3rd for Nielsen, we could be besties again.
