A life, Jimmy, you know what that is? It's the shit that happens while you're waiting for moments that never come.

I too have a question about Snowpiercer, but not about the ending. Why did the guards with the axes cut the fish before fighting? Is that some kind of South Korean thing I don't get as an American? It was just bizarre and didn't seem to have a point.

I recently read an article with the director and it had to do with old African tribes and intimidation, and I'm pretty sure the reason was to invoke the feeling you had when you saw it.

I watched Machine Gun Preacher and man was that movie a stinking pile of poo poo. I hope someone takes another shot at it in a few years, but displays the protagonist more accurately, as a narcissistic poser. I also rewatched Glengarry Glen Ross and as a former sales guy, I was always confused when managers used parts of that movie to inspire salespeople.

If you want a documentary that plays on the format and messes with your expectations, watch The Imposter That is all I'll say.
