It's about time!

Recently there was a murder. A woman was bound and dragged behind a speeding vehicle, across a lonely road. One would think: "put him away forever" or even "to death."But this doesn't seem to be in the cards for this case. Instead of pleading innocent or insane, he's pleading mentally retarted. This is actually interesting since a person with a dibilitating mental dissorder cannot be found guilty of a heinous crime... I believe (I know that they can't be put to death, I'm going off the news on this, by the way). So this guy may get off nearly scott free just because he has an IQ of 60. I just don't get it,if anyone else were to do this there would be no problem, open and shut case, but cince he's "challenged" he gets special treatment. Is it just me or is there a double standard here? I mean, if I did this I'd be dead already. They can't use the excuse that he didn't know what he was doing, because he had to have take quite a bit of time to bind a struggleing woman to the back of a car in order to drag her behind. The entire time there must have been something telling him that what he was doing was wrong.

But that's just what I think.

Have you ever watched a movie that you really used to like but now you don't? That happens to me all the time and it really blows. I mean, I used to really like Once Upon a Time in Mexico, but now I look back and notice that it wasn't that great. The writting is cheesy, the effects are mediocre at best (since all he (Robert Rodriguez) did was CG in the bullet holes and such. It's amazing how he made the movie but the movie itself wasn't that good at all. Also I felt that a couple of the actors weren't actually their caracters. Meaning that the mercinary caracter (that guy who's been in nearly every rodriguez movie) was just the actor pretending to be that guy. It's not anything like Johnny Depp, where it actually seemed as though he was F.B.I. agent Sans, ot Antonio Banderas as El (as in "the"). other than that I can't really enjoy it as much as I enjoy Desperado. It mostly just seems as though he rused the shooting and writting of the film, which made the dialoge seem corny and forced. Oh, well, thats it I guess. More to come on other things that will probably be more interesting.
