So my wife is gone this weekend at school (she's in a program that meets two weekends every month at Portland St.), and so I decided to be mature and instead of throwing a big party I decided to work on my work samples for my masters degree. I need background noise when I work...so I went to the one genre that always gets me through schoolwork (surprisingly not horror): the action film*. Here are some images of what motivated me while I typed up lesson plans, assessment data analysis, and other various forms of busy work. Enjoy. (oh, and in case anyone is wondering where the second episode thoughts for "Boardwalk Empire" are...sorry. I just don't have the time. The Q&D, though: Michael Shannon is awesome. Oh, and "Eastbound and Down" was
highly disappointing considering the amount of talent working on that show.)
*One thing I did notice when I randomly payed attention to these movies: Andrew Davis is a really goo action filmmaker, and his Above the Law
is not only the best Seagal movie, but it might be one of the better action films of the 80's. Out for Justice
is just goofy, Bronson-esque vigilante fun, and of course Under Siege
is beyond awesome thanks to a brilliantly manic performance from Tommy Lee Jones...oh, and Garey Busey!
