I saw this today, linked from a site I frequent. There are a lot of videos from several different years, including one set to "Eye Of The Tiger," but this one really gives the best over view. It also really makes me want to try this:
I covered, sort of, another Sundance Film Festival for the Deseret News. I made several blog entries that I thought were worthwhile but I only turned in one full story which wasn't about a movie at all but about a musician. On the plus side, when I saw her in Park City and when I saw her previously in New York, I left convinced both times that she is a future star. I do mean that.
I had terrible luck with Sundance this year, including transportation. One day my passenger side window refused to go down and my driver side window refused to go up. Driving to Park City in the snow pretty much makes this a car I just couldn't use anymore. Better, the catalytic converter on my other car (the one that didn't give out on the way to Mexico last summer) bit the dust.
When our refrigerator went out we remodeled our kitchen and when my 1996 Honda with 160,000 miles was just one repair beyond acceptable, we bought a new car. Pimped out Accord. Nice car.
Anyway the point was, I saw fewer films and wrote fewer stories than ever before and it makes me a bit sad. I did manage to see some films though.
Wow, "District 9" just got a "Best Picture" nomination from the Academy Awards. It was one of my best pictures to be sure.
