Best Effin' TWITTER Ever — Shit My Dad Says

I generally think Twitter is for Entourage-loving douche bags, but this is really great. I hope this Justin kid goes on Letterman with his dad. Somebody should give this guy a book deal ASAP.

I'm 28. I live with my 73-year-old dad. He is awesome. I just write down shit that he says. — Justin

"My flight lands at 9:30 on Sunday...You want to watch what? What the fuck is mad men? I'm a mad man if you don't pick me the hell up."

"Your mother rented this film, What Happens In Vegas. I thought it was going to be non-fiction, but it's fiction, and it's about some idiot."

"Who is this woman?....Kate Beckinsale? Well, you can tell Kate Beckinsale she sucks."

"Don't touch the bacon, it's not done yet. You let me handle the bacon, and i'll let you handle..what ever it is you do. I guess nothing."

"Your brother brought his baby over this morning. He told me it could stand. It couldn't stand for shit. Just sat there. Big let down."

"Love this Mrs. Dash. The bitch can make spices... Jesus, Joni (my mom) it's a joke. I was making a joke! Mrs. Dash isn't even real dammit!"

"The dog is not bored, it's a fucking dog. It's not like he's waiting for me to give him a fucking rubix cube. He's a god damned dog."

(left on answering machine) "Hello? Hello? It's Sam. Anyone there? Nobody checks this god damned thing. HELLO?! HELLO?! Screw it."

District 9 — Run, Don't Walk

A few years back, I posted about director Neil Blokamp's brilliant short, Alive in JoBurg. D9 is the concept fully realized (with financial help from big shot producer, Peter "Lord of the Rings" Jackson). District 9 gets the Fuzzy nom for Best Picture of the year.

Amy Biancoli from the Houston Chronicle writes ...

Every now and then, a film comes along that both defies and compels description. District 9 is one such movie: a science-fiction action vehicle so brilliantly and fully imagined that real life, when it resumes after the credits, arrives with a new sense of dread.

This is categorically one of the best releases of the year so far — a spellbinding genre flick that's also a corrosive assault on the baroque inhumanity of common human beings.

What else can be said about it? That District 9 deftly weaves the faux-documentary gimmick with more forthright narrative segments and all-out, upscale action mayhem. That it bound me so closely, and so emotionally, to the central characters that I spent the entire running time in three agonized postures: gripping my seat in suspense, grabbing my head in panic and covering my mouth in alarm. This is unlike any other human-versus-extraterrestrial film in recent memory, though it's closer in spirit and conceit to Alien Nation than the macho hooey of Starship Troopers — and closer still to a couple of sci-fi/horror classics (plus a certain German novella) that I won't even name for fear of blowing the plot.
I simply refuse to spoil it for you. It's that good. Bloody, suspenseful, excoriating and flecked through with pathos and humor, District 9 is science fiction at its best.
