Recently had in mind: The Weather Man

Uh huh, archer in modern suit. Very nice.

It's eleven o'clock now, and I need to go to school early tomorrow morning. But I feel like I need to write about this first.

The Weather Man is a dark comedic drama. Well, dark, yeah. It's a little depressing. David Spritz is a weatherman, quite successfully. Well, yeah, speaking and pointing at a blue/green screen on TV. He has a highly successful father, who is an award-winning writer. Other than that, his life sucks by all means. He separated from his wife. His daughter is obese and smokes, while his son was recently released from rehab. Finally, he got food thrown at him for unknown reasons.

Spritz is played by Nicholas Cage, about whom I don't need to introduce much. He was great in this movie, as most other characters and actors were. It was somewhat really good, to tell the truth.



I think I want a set of bow and arrows right now

Well, yeah, for some strange reasons, I didn't cry tonight. That was A-O-K. Really fine. And I find myself and Spritz sharing so many things in life, except for the fact that I don't have that kind of career around here.

"Nothing that has meaning is easy"; "Easy doesn't enter into grown-up life" and "The harder thing to do and the right thing to do are usually the same thing"? Sounds great, but too bad, life's too unacceptably not-easy.

By the way, I'm not in a very good shape.

Well, actually, that A-O-K means that there was nothing wrong with me while watching it, but anyway, this one is film that I really really like smile

  • Trailer: Cubium (Avreliy Games)

    Here's a moody looking puzzle game from Avreliy Games, who I think are a Ukrainian developer. Their website domain suffix is .ua, so they probably are.
