First some good news...
I just went to see the movie The Descent today and if was fucking GREAT!!! It does my cold black heart good to see that there are still film makers out there who aren't willing to buckle under and do some watered down PG-13 cluster fuck of a "horror" movie with an entire cast pulled from The OC and WB teen dramas . This movie was FUCKING INTENSE . It starts off a little slow , but that only helps to get you attached to the characters . This makes it all that much more effective when bad things start happening to those characters . You can actuall FEEL some of the shit that happens to them . I honestly winced a few times . There is no shortage of gore either . Once things get going , the blood flows freely . I don't want to ruin anything for you folks if you're going to go see it (Which I highly recommend) , but rest assured this is definitely a good old -fashioned HORROR movie . Thank God they still exist .
Now some bad news...
Is it just me or is anybody else feeling a little bummed out with the "New" SG ? It just feels like its gotten really impersonal and businesslike . I don't know . Maybe it's just me , but I used to look forward to coming on here and talking with everybody about all sorts of stupid shit . Now I can barely even track down people that I've known since I first joined SG many moons ago . It doesn't seem like as much of a close knit community anymore . I'm glad that it's become succesful , but it's almost become too big for its own good . I refuse to even go near the boards anymore because there's always some kind of bullshit drama going on there . I don't know . Maybe it's almost time to pack up and move on .

Ya, I checked out The Descent last weekend and liked it a lot. (except for the stripped down americanized ending). Although I'd have liked it a little more if the creatures weren't so easily defeatable (especially by a bunch of chicks!). Talladega Nights was funny as hell. Have you check that one out yet? As for the new SG look. I'd have to agree that the community aspects do seem a bit more buried, but I've noticed the quality of the sets has jumped up in the last couple of months. Particularly after the launch of Gods girls. The new Alexsandria set is probably the greatest set this site has ever seen. Anyway, ya that's what I got.
