"I recently made a documentary about going to Moscow to try to help turn Everybody Loves Raymond into a Russian sitcom. And I had some problems. But this, this was nuts. It’s the ultimate nightmare and the wildest making-of movie. One of the all-time great metaphors for art, or life, dragging a steamship up and over a mountain was Fitzcarraldo’s burden. And so it was of the filmmaker, the great and possibly crazy Werner Herzog. Among the beautiful insights here are his rants against nature. That’s what keeps me inside watching movies."

Okay, so I didn't actually finish reading this one, but that's because I just couldn't. Now, it could be that my preview copy was an earlier version than what will be published. There were certainly far too many typos and problems with the text for what I got to ever go to press. I do hope that I've gotten the wrong impression, since I did see flashes of brilliance in what I did read, and the writer does seem to have potential. She just needs a really, Really, REALLY good editor.

Movie Rating

Two upper-class teenage girls in suburban Connecticut rekindle their unlikely friendship after years of growing apart. Together, they hatch a plan to solve both of their problems-no matter what the cost.

The beginning of this one seemed promising and I was looking forward to where the duo were going, but the film swerved off into some fairly boring territory quickly. I was left fidgeting and querying (after my many years of watching crime dramas and reading forensic science books) how any of them managed to convince the police of their guilt/innocence.

Great game but it has problems

I love playing this game to the point I play it more than the physical MTG card game.
The cards look great and it's fairly easy to get packs without having to pay real money. It also has a good amount of events on every week to earn rewards.
The problem is that it crashes a lot and disconnects. Kind of fed up of it just disconnecting and then missing my turn loads. Sick of having to restart it.
