I saw Tropic Thunder tonight. Cruise and Downey Jr. were phenomenon in this movie. Athough, I cried many times watching Jerry McGuire and loved Downey Jr in Chaplin, but I was underestimated them until this movie. My hat off to them.

I laughed so hard that I cried when Downey Jr. said “I’m a lead farmer, motherfucker.” He was incredible! His character was brought out and shone through. I love every scene he is in it.

My favorite scene is this one: Tom Cruise (Les Grossman): This is Les Grossman who is this…

(Flaming Dragon): THIS IS FLAMING DRAGON!

Tom Cruise (Les Grossman): oh ok! Flaming Dragon; fuck face; First, take a big step back… and literally, FUCK YOUR OWN FACE! I don’t know what kind of pan-pacific bullshit power play you’re trying to pull here, but Asia, Jack, is my territory. So whatever you’re thinking, you’d better think again! Otherwise I’m gonna have to head down there and I will rain down in a Godly fucking firestorm upon you! You’re gonna have to call the fucking United Nations and get a fucking binding resolution to keep me from fucking destroying you. I’m talking about a scorched earth, motherfucker! I will massacre you! I WILL FUCK YOU UP!

I had flipped the chanels back and forth to see that Cruise’s scene 3 times–I love him in that character. It’s funny. Hilarious! Very well played by Cruise and I do not think that anyone in the industry could do it better than he!

I’m sold on this movie because of them two acting skills. And if Paramound actually does Satan’s Alley, I will go to the theater and see it. They even have the a website for it. I actually want to see something with the same story line because in 1994, there was The Priest and that movie, Roache was incredible! You can see the pain and the struggle expressed on his face. Beautiful, insightful, remarkable, and very touching movie, The Priest is one of my all times favorites.

I also saw the Dark Knight but will watch it again because I was tired and wasn’t in the mood of watching movies. Maybe tomorrow.

I have a whole week off and many things awaits to be done. I plan to finish Anna Karenina this week. It’s gonna be a wonderful week. I’m certain.
