Movies:
Ok here's my top ten although it's difficult without seperating genres....
1) SILENT RUNNING (Awesome 1971 environmentally themed film which will unfortunately come true)
2) DR. STRANGELOVE (Kubrick rules)
3) SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION (The most perfect ending)
4) THE GODFATHER (The finest acting of any film..ever)
5) ROB ROY (Much of it is poetic.."My Lord..surely rumors are attracted to you as flys to shite - Montrose..you are the flys AND the shite upon it...)
6)
MATAWAN(Beautifully done John Sayles indie film)
7)
FARGO(The great Coen Bros at their best)
8)
PULP FICTION(Nuff said)
9)
GLORY(Best war film..ever)
10)
ROAD WARRIOR(Ok I know Mel sucks...but it's just so cool)
11)
JFK(Ok 11 for the price of ten...just had to...)
Television:
Keith Olbermann is awesome...check out Countdown on MSNBC, Bill Maher rules also and for a more balanced approach you cant go wrong with Chris Matthews and Hardball
Heroes:
James Earl Carter Jr. more commonly know as our 39th President Jimmy Carter...a great and good man unfairly scapegoated by Neocon Brainwashing....godbless you Jimmy
