I love Jackson

I voted for him in 88, but Dukakis got the nomination.

2. How about Peter?

4. talented director

but he really needs to leave his shoes on and not show the world that hobbits do indeed exist

[jobycom]

7. He can take his shoes off if he promises

to cut his next film in half when he's done.

9. oh no

the last LOTR was fantastic

the next one is King Kong, I think

10. I hated the last LOTR

I actually winced and moaned "Oh come on!" during the scene where Frodo is being carried over the lava, and they fade out, and then they fade back in. Everyone around me laughed.

At the very last scene, as they are going away in the boat, I'm fidgeting--and I mean, I'm an easy movie sell, I like movies everyone else finds corny and stupid. I'm wanting it to end. Finally it does, and I look over at my wife to share this moment of release from extreme torture. She's bawling her eyes out!

So I'm in a minority in my own family, but I really hated that movie.

3. "I love Jackson"

Brownes' music. Especially his early stuff.

5. he jumped the shark with Lawyers in Love

my favorite is

Doctor, my eyes have seen the years
Through the slow parade of tears without crying
Now I want to understand
I have done all that I could
To see the evil and the good without hiding
You must help me if you can

Doctor my eyes
Tell me what is wrong
Was I unwise to leave them open for so long?

As I've wandered through this world
As each moment has unfurled
I've been waiting to awaken from this dream
People go just where they will
I never notice them until I've got this feeling
That it's later than it seems

Doctor my eyes
Tell me what is real
I hear their cries
Just saying "It's too late for me"

GUITAR SOLO

Doctor my eyes
Cannot be disguised
Is this the prize for having learned how not to cry?

6. Stupid question I've been embarrassed to ask before

What does jumping the shark mean? Is that good or bad?

[Sydnie]

8. It's a reference to a Happy Days episode

When Fonzi "jumped a shark" on his motorcycle. It is NOT a good thing, as that episode was way over the top.
