05:16 (action packed)

Hey gang,

Sorry we keep going in and out of commission. We know you are craving for more, sometimes it's so hard to please you. Plus everytime I try, I keep getting sidetracked by those True Girls. Yowza. By this time most of you are out of school and onto summer breaks. I call you people slackers. Go back to school and sit in empty classrooms. Feel your head expand with the vast knowledge pulsing in that room. Feel it and glow.

I'm in the wrong field:

Duma (pronounced dooooooma): I will tell everybody though, to pronounce it duh-ma. So when they ask for it, it'll be funny. See, when you work at club vt you can do this. Plus titles are completely irrelevant, who cares if it's paradise now or paradise then. I'm sorry to come across snooty, but lest we forget that this is Video-the-que.

The Producers: Winner of countless Tony's and little cinematic praise, this remake (can we call it that?) features the least flashiest cover they can think of. All the flash is inside the disc. yeah, right.

The Ringer: Johnny Knoxville teams with the Farrelly Bros in this comedy about a 'normal' dude who competes in the special olympics. Stemming from a true story, this bio pick is not to be missed.

When a Stranger Calls: He'll breathe heavily and ask you what you're wearing. Next time, I'll try to not be so crude.

The White Countess: The last Merchant-Ivory production has been issued. Arguably, some may say that the boredom will cease from now on, but that's mean. So I won't say it, even though I just said it (ha suckers). No, it's fun in light of someone's death. Ismael Merchant was the shiznit at producing some terribly exciting movies.

Winter Passing: Who the hell knows when this came out, must've been when we were sleeping, but it features the following cast: Will Ferrell, Ed "I'm always mad" Harris, and Zooey Deschanel. Don't know much about it. but Ed "I'm always mad" Harris looks like the Unabomber. That's enough for me.

And something notable: The first 3 films of auteur Michael Haneke. Watch em to see how eff'd the german people are. Ok fine, the europeans.

New Staff Recs!

Mark: Music is my radar: Ok that's not so new. A refresher: Pulp, Blur, Suede, anything british.
Rick: Through the looking glass: A sudden burst of surreal insipiration stems from Rick's pix. Take one part Peter Pan one part Matrix and get a world you would want to escape to.
Andy: Look into my eyes: Nothing thematic in terms of plots, but rather cover art. We call this conceptual recs.
Megs: Boot-y-liscious: Ok, she actually has another one but since she's out sick, I'll do her this favor.
Gracie: The Sky is Falling: Absolutely not taken from chicken little, things fall out of the sky in case you needed the clue-in.
Phamidiggity: Fly me to the moon: I retorted to Phammer's that I hate that song, but her picks are aight. Get high on them.
Erin: Welcome the new girl Erin fresh from Fresno. Her picks haven't landed yet, but oh, they're coming.

Ok, that'll do it. We're holding on strong and braving the summer rush. Bring it.
