I guess it depends on what you like. A lot of folks I know loved the
over the top adrenaline rush of Planet Terror while others liked the
slow burn of Death Proof.

I've noticed that patience these days is a lost artform. I even know a cpouple
of hardcore AI fans who can't bother to watch the show, because it's too
long. They'll watch the Daily Buzz the next day on UPN for the AI update. I
was waffling on whether to go and see this, but this lukewarm
Tracey, foe me, I could tolerate the length of the LOTR movies because the
books themselves read as though they were infinitely long as well. And, from my
own history of illness, I'vve mastered the art of being still for long periods
of time.

I agree. I know two guys at work who both have widescreen TVs and watch a lot
of movies at home. Our conversations often include them telling me how it's

Personally. I like long, at the end of Batman I was left wanting more.
At the end of Kill Bill and Lord of the Rings I felt sated. But if you

onstage, and I image Forrest would be a powerhouse as well. Kenny Leon is a
