what i watched today ( or last night )

I like movies. I'm starting this so i can talk about movies, or awesome shows. Feel free to judge me, because i will judge you.

Last night i watched The Fugitive. This movie makes me want to watch Tommy Lee Jones 24/7. I dont care what it is, as long as he is in it. He even makes me excited about men in black 3 ( which is happening. ). Also, anyone able to steal the show away from harrison ford, especially then, is obviously 100% badass.

Anyway, i digress. The Fugitive was a crucial movie for me when i was young. It's one of the first i remember watching with the whole family, and one of the first to really feel like an event. I also remember thinking how awesome Harrison looks with a beard. but more than anything i remember how breathtaking it was. The pace, the action, the cat and mouse between Jones and Ford. so good. It even has two appearances by a young Jane Lynch and younger Julianne Moore, both of whom were originally scripted to be Ford's love interests. How awesome/weird would that have been?

Best of all though, its just as awesome now as it was then. I love Jones' speeches and one liners. I love watching Harrison in one of his best roles outside of Indiana Jones or Star Wars. I just plain love this movie.

The Fugitive came out in 1993, a year i consider epic in terms of the movies that made my brain fall out of my head. Jurassic Park, Mrs. Doubtfire, Groundhog Day, Tombstone, Last Action Hero, and of course Sly's one-two punch of Cliffhanger AND Demolition Man.

Obviously, with that line up, i had no choice. i had to watch movies.
