"Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in"

Yes, the Godfather trilogy Blue-Ray Disc Boxset is out.  For those that have watched it before, it's worth watching again.  The digitally remastered films are better than any version you have ever seen.  This new version did a lot of work on remastering lighting issues in the original film (especially Godfather Part I).  In the seen where Michael Corleone kills for the first time, it is actually visible to see Al Pacino's Cheek acting.  Yes, his cheeks can act as well.  That performance was so incredible.  Truely a magnificent performance, magnificent actor.  The boxset also offers a 4 disc which has all the special treats with commentaries for Francis Ford Coppola and George Lucas.  For those that were too young to even remember the Godfather, well here is your opportunity to watch it now.  NUMBER TWO FILM OF ALL TIME (source* AFI)

I finally have an idea to complete my final cut.  Hopefully I can finish it soon.  This idea actually came from watching "Requiem For a Dream".  It wasn't inspired from some visual, but rather it's creativity and the film's unique still of storytelling.  I hope you all will like it when I am done.

MY NEW INDIAN DIET

Yes, I am now trying an indian diet.  Reason, look at the ingredients in Indian food then compare to Chinese food

Chinese Food

Then compare to Western Food

Saturated Fats

Carbs

Sodium

Salts

Starch

= Tasty but it's gonna kill ya

Then compare to Organic Health Food

Nutrional Value

Gritty Crunchy Bite

Stuff you find the birds out your window eating

Good Carbs

=Really healthy but tastes like shit.  Why eat???

My findings...  We can enjoy what we eat.  Just watch what we eat.  Food shouldn't taste like bird feed.   One thing that commercialism and consumerism has done is giving a bad diet that is causing many people with heart diseases and other serious diseases.  Because the huge brandname products we often find in our neighboring supermarkets started giving us a thing called value, what we didn't realize is that they took away a thing called value (nutritional value).  After watching a few documentaries on Coppola and Lucas, I found that both once suffered from a minor heart attack at a very young age.  Like them, I enjoy eating, but I don't want to die.  To all of my friends here at AND, are you like me?  If so have you checked out what's really in the food you are eating?  It's never too early.  More and more young people are suffering from heart disease today.
