Movie Review: Marley and Me

Written by JAKEDOULL on 27 Dec 2008

Movie: Marley and Me
Starring: Owen Wilson and Jennifer Aniston
Directed by: David Frankel
Release Date: Now Playing!

Please be advised this review contains spoilers. I tried writing the review the without spoilers, but failed. So, if you don't want the movie spoiled for you stop reading now. I saw Marley and Me on Christmas Day with my family.  If you have every had a dog that you cared for very much, that even at times the dog would be a nuisance, you still loved him/her, then the inevitable happens and your dog dies. If you fit that description bring a box of tissues. The plot of the movie is actually a very basic one. Journalist John Grogan gets his wife a puppy to take his wife's mind off kids, and their lives are never the same for it. We watch Marley grow into a ninety pound, underwear stealing, jewelry eating, drywall chewing wrecking ball, but we also see his unconditional love for his family, through the good times and the bad. And in the end, we see the inevitable end of Marley's long life and his family's loss at having to let him go. There are many funny moments in this movie, but this is by no means a Beethoven knockoff canine-comedy. This is a story of life, and a story of love in spite of difficulty, and this is the story that many people have shared as they have watched a beloved pet grow old and die.

The insensitive will see this as a cute movie but nothing more. The rest of us will need some time to regain our composure before we attempt to drive home. Once you get home, take your dog for a walk, throw a few balls, and tell them what good dogs they are. You'll definitely regret it if you don't.

Here is what a couple of professional movie critics had to say about Marley and Me:

Tom Long of the Detroit News said, "Marley & Me is everything you could want in a holiday movie -- family friendly, touching, funny. Plus, it's surprisingly intelligent and real. It may be the best family film of the year".

James Berardinelli of ReelViews said, "Want to see a grown man cry? Take him to Marley & Me".

Final Words: A must see.

I give Marley and Me a 5 out of 5.

The Polar Bears.

How to save them!

Every year Global Warming increases by 10 fold.
With Global Warming, There comes serious risks against the Environment, People and Polar Bears!

The polar bear is one of the natural world's most famous predators - the king of the Arctic wastelands. But, like its vast Arctic home, the polar bear is under unprecedented threat. Both are disappearing with alarming speed.
You may ask, How do we stop this?

1. Recycle
2. Reduce
3. Reuse

The three following steps is what you may see at school.
But the following three steps can be the last hope to man kind.
If we dont cut back NOW, All the pollution we make will decrease the Polar Bear population by HUNDREDS.

Last year, hunters found half a dozen bears that had drowned about 200 miles north of Barrow, on Alaska's northern coast. "It seems they had tried to swim for shore ... A polar bear might be able to swim 100 miles but not 400.

This is truly ridiculous of how far the destruction of our world is begging..
Just when will YOU take and a stand and say NO to Pollution.
An follow the 3 R's of Life.
Its a decision you have to decide.
Just admit it. Can you really be apart of a Genocide that will wipe out a WHOLE species?
In my view point, I think we all should lend a helping a hand and make a cause and just be one less!

Think before you act, Speak before for its the End.
~ Dedication to Wilfred the Polar Bear. <3

 

How to keep a safe password!

Written by Nosx - News Manager on 13 Dec 2008

First, never use any name in your password. For example, if your name is "Michael", don't make your password michael15. This will make your password easy to guess and therefore makes your password unsafe and puts your account at risk!

Second, always use uppercase and lowercase letters! If you do this, your password will be more secure because passwords are always case-sensitive, therefore making your password hard to guess.

Next, don't make it something that you aren't going to remember.
A BAD example of a password would be: Ah3729cbbbYAhfr
A GOOD example would be: KiTTenLOVeR83

Finally, don't use anything that will be easy to guess.
Such as, hahaHello1. There are many commonly used passwords that are easy to guess.

Now you know how to make a safe and secure password!
So if your current password falls under one of the BAD categories, CHANGE IT! :]
