The Butterfly Effect (2004)

Awsome!!

[17 March 2004]

This is by far my favorite film. I was a big Kutcher fan before but his performance in this movie was..WOW! The movie was fantastic, if anything the only downfall i think was Melora Walters as Evans mom. To me she was o.k. but didn't really fit into the vibe of the story. besides that everything is great. The one thing i loved about this movie was that it was so original. It was disturbing shocking, you actually got to know Evan and felt sorry for him. And as for being new up and coming movie directors Brovo!! Eric.Bress and his partner J.Mackye Gruber Brovo!! The kids who played in the movie were absolutley the best i have ever seen in my life.

But as for Ashton...what can i say. Hes been stereotyped into the stupid dimwitted kelso acting dude wheres my car just married kind of guy (which is totally cool because he's funny as hell) but it's fantastic the way he showed hollywood and everyone else what he could really do and i got his back 100%.

Go see this movie its worth the time its worth the money and it will surely make you think!!

Hate.Com: Extremists on the Internet (2000 TV Movie)

A very disturbing documentary but i can see where some problems might come in.

[28 January 2004]

The first time i saw this program was on HBO and i must admit me being black (and other cultures) did make me quite upset and scared. BUT i will admit i was not closed minded!! I did consider the fact that blacks make hate crimes too!! At schools that are mostly populated by blacks white kids often get teased and picked on...But this also happens at white schools where the black person is the victim too. Back to the topic though..in my opinion it touches on a very serious subject and the reason why they (HBO) chose the KKK and the Neo-Nazi topic was because these to groups are getting the most response. They are getting the most followers and i think the most important reason why they set this program on was because of the youth and the way they interact with the internet! and what better way to get this message out than attacking the youth or just more people for that matter.Me personally, i dont want it to be about race as the other user put it because HATE is HATE no matter what color!And yes somethings are a little lop-sided and yes i know that some blacks commit crimes too!! But lets face it! honestly no race has been hated more than the Blacks and Jews.. and the crimes committed against them has just made us spechless. So it makes sense to attack at these two big organizations. I did not want to offend anyone but this is just my opinion. (i'll love to see comments.
