Shawshank is terribly overrated.

 

I wouldn't say it's the best or by any means my favourite movie of all time or anything, but I really enjoy it at least once a year. It's got a good story and I love the soundtrack.

 

What can I say? It appeals to some more than others...evidently...not the less refined.

 

 

 

 

 

(I kid...teheh.)

Meh, It's a good movie but not MINDBLOWINGLY AWESOME as people make it out to be. I think my main gripe was the cast, I've always disliked Tim Robbins for reasons unknown. Only seen it once though, maybe I should give it another spin sometime.

 

Hey Brohammed, check out Jacob's Ladder. Robbins is excellent in that one.

I've actually heard really good things about that film, but I've never really looked into it. I take it that you'd suggest giving it a watch?

 

Definitely, one of my favorite movies, and an excellent psychological horror/thriller. It was also, alongside Twin Peaks, the main inspiration for the Silent Hill games. :)

Well, today is the day. My girlfriends mom and grandma arrived here yesterday from Tucson and L.A. So far my girlfriend believes that the big surprise thus far was her grandma coming up. She also believes that the "party" we had on her birthday a few days ago was her party and was really happy about it. Today I originally had reservations at a nice family style restaurant where I'd get her there and shed find a bunch of people waiting for her in surprise. But the idiot restaurant overbooked and canceled my reservations. However, my mom and sister have decided the hell with that place, today while the gf, mom, grandma, and I are out looking around the cities (I live in the twin cities for anyone who didn't know) they are gonna cook lots of food, and decorate the house and have a big bonfire. A bunch of friends who were going to go to the restaurant and surprise her are still gonna show up. So when we get back she will have that waiting for her.

 

At the party is when I'm going to propose to her.

 

Wish me luck.
