Just finished watching Syriana. |

And I'm pissed. Why is it ok to kill someone and his family just because you don't agree with them politically? And that dude would have been great for his country and the region. It just SUCKS. Great movie though. Duckie

1. I was thinking of watching it On Demand tonight. |
|
Would you recommend it? I heard it was hard to follow, but the trailer interests me much.

If you have to go to the bathroom, hit pause. It covers a few different peoples stories. Matt Damon is Awesome in the movie. YES, I would recommend it. Duckie

scene with George Clooney. First second I knew what was happening, I had to turn away. It blows my mind that anyone could condone torture. Sick f*ckers.

I love Tim Blake Nelson's monologue in defense of corruption
We have laws against it precisely so we can get away with it. Corruption is our protection. Corruption keeps us safe and warm. Corruption is why you and I are prancing around in here instead of fighting over scraps of meat out in the streets. Corruption is why we win.

9. I cried when we saw it in the theater. |

It made me want to stop consuming oil, too. I wish I could accomplish that.
