Legion, or Paul Bettany Fucking Shit up as I'll remember it

Caught Legion on Thursday, this would be the apocalypse movie taking place at a diner in the middle of the desert. Paul Bettany is outstanding and basically saves this thing. Dennis Quaid and Tyrese are in this thing and they play what has become typecast roles for them. Quaid: down and out loser/drunk. Tyrese: Reformed gangster, just trying to do the right thing :( Awful, both of them. SO, the film has Michael, God's #1 dude trying to save mankind from God himself, who is trying to exterminate the world from humans. He rounds up a bunch of guns and head's to the place where our next savior is being born to a bumpkin waitress, who I happen to find stunningly beautiful (Adrianna Palicki). Basically kid lives, we live, kid dies and its curtains for humanity. Kate Walsh plays outstanding eye candy, I seriously love those Cadillac commercials with her in them. She is Cougartacular.

Editors note: Lucas Black (Or as I think of him the little kid in Slingblade, or the QB in Friday Night Lights) is in it and sucks ass as well. Tallying at home 3 shitty performances and 1 gem from Bettany.

Bettany is badass, but also I totally believed that he cared about humans. He's the only reason to see this film. That, and an 80 year-old really sweet lady say YOUR FUCKING BABY IS GOING TO BURN. I'd watch it for sure when it's on cable, or even rent it. It's pretty entertaining.

Bottom Line: 6.8 out of 10 Definitely watch, if for no other reason to enjoy Paul Bettany. That sounds way too gay, but I'm leaving it.

Finished Bill Simmon's fucktastic book of his lifelong erection for the Boston Celtics. This fuck is SO vain that he insist that on his "If earth were to play aliens for the fate of mankind" team he'd have KEVIN MCHALE ON IT. He somehow reasons to himself that the 1986 Kevin McHale is better than every other player besides MJ, Bird, Magic, Pippen, Kareem, Walton, Wade, CP3, and Duncan. He even puts him ahead of Lebron in this thing. What the fuck do you have to be on to put Kevin McHale ahead of Lebron James. He better not be able to sleep at night.

Fun fact: I'm on an enormous oatmeal stout kick that can be quenched by Ale Asylums stout and Great Dane also makes a mean stout. No idea where this is coming from, but that stuff is just amazing. That, and 7.8% ALC by volume, so it's similar to ripping 4 light beers in the same amount of time. OUTSTANDING.

Random great fact: Just bought all the American Pie classics for 10 bucks at Best Buy in the value pack and Fletch, Happy Gilmore, and Mallrats for ten bucks too, VALUE PACK FOR SURE. Cheap movies are without a doubt my crack-cocaine. My really depressing addiction that I throw money at for temporary happiness.
