My day to bash movies. Kill Bill was crap. Yet oddly compelling. He made crap because he was trying to emulate crap. Sure you can appreciate the rough edits, wonky sound, and wooden acting of the old movies. But those old movies are striving to be better than they are and they're limited by their

I loved equilibrium. I thought the story was quite thought provoking and well represented by the screenplay. To me it was irrelevant where the script writers sought their inspiration for the tale, anymore than I fault the Wachowski brothers for splicing together a hodge podge of readily avail

It's good but you have to be patient. They are really taking their sweet time telling the main story. Last night's ep though really seemed to reveal much more. The one good thing I see about the series is that nearly every character has a potential good backstory. -Original Message- From:
