    May 12th, 2008 · 7 Comments

    I was with some friends (Bobby, Julie, Eve, Jessica, Amy, Clark, Clay, Cassandra, Joy, Olga) last night and we were discussing the best romantic comedies of all time. I of course won by letting everyone know that the best romantic comedy of all time is, as we all know, “Say Anything.” It wins [...]

    The new trailer for the upcoming Batman movie is finally out.  I thought Heath Ledger was a huge mistake for the Joker, I think I was wrong!

    Violence and The Kingdom

    December 12th, 2007 · No Comments

    On Sunday I went with some friends to see The Kingdom at our local dollar theater.  I thought so much of it, that I invited some other friends and went back to see it last night.
    This was an awesome movie.  Not only shot, directed, and acted well, but an incredibly eye-opening (though certainly not meant [...]

    Human Trafficing :: Global Awareness :: Missional Church

    March 27th, 2007 · 1 Comment

    Yesterday marked the 200th anniversary of the end of the mid-Atlantic slave trade on the UK end of things. This was largely on account of the efforts of William Wimberforce. If you haven’t already, you really should see Amazing Grace, a movie about William Wilberforce and his efforts.
    Sadly, despite the legal abolition of [...]

    Color me Uncool

    March 31st, 2006 · 2 Comments

    My friend Tony shows a film each Thursday evening over on campus which is open to everyone and then hosts a discussion following. The film we watched tonight was Almost Famous.

    I hadn’t seen it before and I really liked it. It’s a story about a 15-year old boy who gets to go on [...]

    The Link Between Gossip and Genocide

    February 27th, 2006 · 2 Comments

    I realize I am a latecomer to this discussion, but I just finished watching Hotel Rwanda and can’t go to bed without commenting. Let me say at the outset that if you haven’t seen it, there’s a good chance much of what I have to say will simply fail to make sense. I [...]
