“The truth is, I can’t go out. I’m under house arrest.”

“Oh my god. [pause] Does it hurt?”

“It beeps.”

NAME THAT QUOTE!

I’m still waiting for a guess on the previous quote. I’ve got one more quote today, only this one you don’t have to guess because you probably already know. I just found this extremely humorous, don’t ask me why.

“So I was taking a walk to clear my mind at about 9:30 at might and I
see this brown tree with birds flying around it. As I walk closer I
realize thst the tree is in fact NOT brown but green. It is just
that it is covered in birds. As I approach the birds become
frightened of course and start to swarm over my head. It was
beautiful. I then decided to walk in the middle of the road all the
way home.”

Anyway, on with the show.

——The Recruit——

I saw this last night. I don’t want to go to into it but I’ll give it a little mini review. The movie is actually pretty good until the ultra predictable, and yet very unrealistic ending. The acting is pretty good for the most part(except for, again, the end) and the female lead, Bridget Moynahan, is damn hot. Mostly the CIA training stuff is good, the rest of the story, not so much. I gave it a B.

Anyway, I had some questions about the movie though, that I thought I would ask you about.

There is a computer program called Ice-9 or something like that in the second half of the movie that supposedly is a virus that you can implant from any electrical outlet. Aren’t phone lines and electrical outlets different though? How is a virus going to get from the electrical outlets into your computer? That one baffled me.

In the movie, and in every trailer, one of their training tasks is to go into a bar and come out with a girl that wants to sleep with him. Colin Irishman goes in and finds the girl from training that he’s been flirting heavily with drunk and he decides to take her outside and get her a cab home. When he gets to the parking lot though it’s announced that her mission was to distract him from his mission, and that he failed his. But later, under a lie detector, she reveals that she did want to sleep with him. Does that mean he passed the mission then?

I had another question, but then I realized I already knew the answer, so that’s all today folks.
