Dominos Mutha F*cka!

There's something that's been kinda eating at me over the last few weeks. Over the last few movies actually. It's mainly the predictability of films nowadays. I don't really get it. Its like the writers and directors get together to create this huge and incredible masterpiece, lets us Avatar as an example, and they splash us with tons of incredible visuals, and a more than "decent" (shouts to maf) storyline and totally drop the ball with a predictable/deflating ending. Its almost like you hear the director yell "dominoes muthafucka!", and smash the table in front of your face. Things didn't get any better when one of my Co-D's and I went to see The Book Of Eli last night. I won't review the film, but will tell you to definitely go and check it out for yourself. I will only say, they could have done more with less at the end of the film. Ever speak with someone who talks TOO much and either A) tells on themselves if they were attempting to lie, or 2) bores you to tears with whatever story it is they are telling?

I'll end by saying, movies today (Aside from Dr. Parnasis) resemble looking at a huge set up of dominos. The directors set it in motion by tipping the first domino, and at first it looks really, really cool! But by the middle, you know exactly what's going to happen. And by the end, you say to yourself; "this was really not that big a deal", or "If this were on Playstation it would be cooler". You look at the person who set up the domino set, and he cooly says to you; "DOMINOS MUTHAFUCKA!"
