Slumdog Millionare

One of the perks of living in China is the massive amount of DVD's available for purchase on EVERY street corner. By every street corner, I am in no way exaggerating, it may even be an understatement. And at a mere 5RMB each (DVD quality, mind you.. we've come a long way since people started filming in theaters, they're going straight to the source now)... I can have every movie that is in theaters in the States now for less than the cost of a movie ticket. (I don't want someone to leave a gay ass comment like "Oh.. well the cost of these DVD's is actually people dying in Afghany and supporting terrorism, etc, etc. If I want to get into that, I'll google it myself. I'm buying them from a nice lady... if that makes a difference.) These DVD's consist of classics from Running with Scissors to the very latest such as Will Smith's Seven Pounds, Clint Eastwood's Gran Torino, and the best movie I've seen in a very very long time: Slumdog Millionare. Now, usually I wouldn't go about posting or advertising something un-skateboarding related but I held my piss in for 2 hours watching this movie. Shit's bonkers. But maybe it's just me and my bad taste in movies. I would recommend it to anyone who hasn't seen it yet. I actually have no idea if this even came out in the States or if it's still in theaters though. Anyone want me to watch and review any movies before you go yourself? Just shout me a holla.

Now the BEST would be if they had bootleg skate videos.... I sure could use me a copy of Translations and Final Flared. Fuck it, throw Last of the Mohicans in too! Anyone want to trade?


Here's the trailer for Slumdog Millionare:
