None of my friends watch Doctor Who.
The worst part? I can’t tell anyone that awesome joke. You know the one.
Knock, knock?
Who’s there?
Doctor.
Doctor who?
EXTERMINATE!
*Sigh.* It’s a sad day in my life.

The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King
Tears on my face for the last 45 minutes, like a blubbering fool. No shame.
I would go so far as to say that this is the most wonderful, beautiful story I have ever known. Yes, and I would say that confidently.
“End? No, the journey doesn’t end here. Death is just another path, one that we all must take. The grey rain-curtain of this world rolls back, and all turns to silver...

Day 5 - Favorite Character in The Royal Tenenbaums
There’s obviously something wrong with him. He’s taken off his shoes and one of his socks and…actually, I think he’s crying.

C.S. Lewis, on life after death
- Excerpt from Reflections on the Psalms -
“When…men have learned to desire and adore God, to pant after him “as pants the hart”, it is another matter. For then those who love God will desire not only to enjoy Him but “to enjoy Him forever”, and will fear to lose Him. And it is by that door that a truly religious hope of Heaven and fear of Hell can enter;...

Day 4 - Favorite character in Rushmore
I could try to think of some obscure character that makes you go “Oh yeah! I loved him/her! How unique!” but…it’s gotta be Max. He makes this movie what it is, for obvious reasons.

Day 3 - Favorite Character in Bottle Rocket
All of the characters are unique and awesome in their own way. But for some reason I always think back to Kumar.
Kumar: Man, I blew it. I blew it, man. Anthony: Kumar, what were you doing in the freezer? Kumar: I don’t know, man, I lose my touch, man. Dignan: Did you ever have a touch to lose, man?
