My rating system is as follows:

= 5 out of 5 L'il Pennies - Reeks of Awesomeness

= 4 out of 5 Li'l Pennies - This be "Off The Heezy" (Good Tyrese Song)

= 3 out of 5 L'il Pennies - The level of shizzle was'nt broken, but it met the nizzle.

= 2 out of 5 L'il Pennies - Hey, if you had the honour of being rated by L'il Penny, you're a lucky person or puppet.

= 1 out of 5 L'il Pennies - very very rare, it means it really really sucked or Richard Simons was in it.

Training Day

Hmmm...I liked it alot~! But Macy Gray scared the ~ish out of me~!!! Snoop & Dre can't act~! (Deserves an Award of some sort...)

Thrown into his world of street justice, Ethan Hawke is the wide-eye newbie who goes through a fraternity-hazing-like first day when trying to prove his merit to his new boss. What happens makes boot camp look like summer camp as Hawke is tricked or talked into smoking laced pot, guzzling scotch, taking the rap for a shotgun blast and baby-sitting while his partner gets some lovin' in the next room. Washington is electrifying as the edgy cop, quick to pull out his attitude and his gun, despite some overcooked plot twists, mainly toward the end. Beyond being an eye-opening moviegoing experience, this top-notch thriller was off the heezy~!

13 GHOSTS

Awesome Horror flick, it was freaky deekie. Any way, it was good. Among the best horror flicks i've seen, if not the best.

Horror film about a family that inherits a spectacular old house from an eccentric uncle. There's just one problem: the house seems to have a dangerous agenda all its own. Trapped in their new home by strangely shifting walls, the family encounters powerful and vengeful entities that threaten to annihilate anyone in their path. Soon the family is joined by an offbeat ghost hunter who is determined to free the spirits imprisoned in the house. Caught in a frantic race to save themselves before it is too late, the human inhabitants realize the house is a riddle which contains the key to their imminent (Currently not in my vocabulary) salvation — or destruction!

Well, Corky Romano was truly the shizzle when it came to being the nizzle. The funniest scene in the movie would literally make you stand up and laugh your A$$ of until you cry, which I almost did.

Good-natured veterinarian Corky Romano is stunned when he receives a surprising call from his long-lost father "Pops," an underworld crimelord who has been indicted by a grand jury. With his trial just two weeks away, it looks as if the Mafia kingpin is finally going down. However, he still has an ace up his sleeve. Pops realizes that the one person who can turn the tables and infiltrate the FBI undetected - and abscond with the evidence against him - is Corky, who was banished from the family at a young age for not fitting in. Corky is only too happy to help his newly rediscovered relations, and his brothers intimidate a computer hacker into creating a fake resume to get Corky into the FBI. But the hacker panics and goes overboard, making Corky appear to be a super agent, a repuation that he must live up to - which makes this a finny A$$ movie~!

Survivor 3 - Africa

I expect to see some animals on this show, they never showed any koalas, kangaroos, dingos that eat babies, or Crocadile Dundee in Survivor 2 - Australian Ouback!!

Boran Tribe = Boring Tribe, without Jessie Camacho!

Samburu Tribe = Where's Simbas Tribe?

ALIAS

Awesome show, Sunday nights at 8:00 (1 hour); Channel 9. This show is like ... Whoa! It's all about the CIA and a secret agency, SD-6. It's sorta like James Bond mixed in with some Tomb Raider, it Reeks of Awesomeness!

Sydney Bristow is a college graduate student by day, CIA agent by night. But not just any CIA agent - she's an agent for SD-6, a top-secret division of the CIA - or so she thinks.

Shy and lonely and eager to be a part of something bigger, Sydney was recruited freshman year and loved every minute of her job. Today, Sydney still works for SD-6, but she is no longer shy or alone - her boyfriend, Danny, has just proposed, and her best friend, Francie, couldn't be happier. Will, her friend, has to fake happiness while keeping his unrequited love for her to himself. So now, Sydney's got a problem. She has to decide what she wants from the rest of her life and what she's gonna tell Danny.

Sydney's SD-6 partner, Dixon, advises her not to disclose her secret, and Sydney knows that SD-6 leader Sloane would be upset at any security breech. Even Marshall, SD-6's super intelligent weapon inventor and gadget maker, knows that spilling their identities is strictly forbidden. This is, after all, the one rule you don't break.

But, Sydney breaks the rule anyway, and suddenly her life is thrown upside-down: Danny is murdered, and Sydney is in a fight for her own life. She learns that her long-estranged father, Jack, is also SD-6 and that the organization is covering up a heinous plan - they are, in fact, not a branch of the CIA. They are an enemy of the United States.

With no where else to run to, Sydney seeks out the help of the real CIA in hopes of putting SD-6 out of business. She is put under the command of operations officer, Vaughn, who enlists Sydney to become a double agent.

Sydney's mission is to complete her cases at SD-6 while reporting her findings back to the CIA. But when Sydney finds out that her father is also affiliated with the CIA, she begins to question where his true loyalties really lie.
