Only hospital-sanctioned creative works were permitted, and foul language was contraband. It's like the 90s never happened.

I'm doing my best to fill the gaps now. I still haven't seen E.T., Ghostbusters II, Close Encounters, Jaws, Dazed and Confused, Almost Famous, Terminator, Indiana Jones, Star Wars, Poltergeist, Hellraiser, Nightmare on Elm Street, Halloween, Goodfellas, Rocky, Scarface, Reservoir Dogs, Boondock Saints, Animal House, National Lampoon, Godfather, or Total Recall
Why were you in the hospital?

I'll check that dictionary, but in the meantime I'm impressed - as is everyone else in the world - by your eloquence, obvious accomplishments and success, and the evidence of your blazingly high intelligence.

I like to think that I'm stronger for it. But indeed - I've much culture to catch up on.

The Forbidden Room

This film is a literal ****ing acid trip. I couldn't tell you what it's about.

I was never in an institution, but from 3rd to the first half of 8th grade I got chucked into the "Emotionally Disturbed" class at my schools. Sounds far more ominous than it really was, as it was just a name so vague that the schools could justify stuffing all the problem kids in with the retards -- who the class was really designed around -- in what was essentially a forgotten dungeon of rejects they could ignore. So for almost six years I was taught at least two levels below my grade.

alright i've caught up on a couple, of blockbusters and a must see for the year


Star Trek: Beyond

wow....by far the best in the new films and a very close second in the Star Trek films overall....this movie is so action packed i lost track of time and space...a well done and immediate plot with a nice little twist at the end....as always in these films and amazing cast who really work well together....even a couple of real tear jerking moments

3d sucked and was absolutely pointless...see it regular with a great sound system


Ghostbusters

was seriously worried about this one and i loved it. The characters were really fun and the comedy was great...all of the cameos were hilarious....overall relax and enjoy what was meant to be a fun movie....i just wish they had tied it in with the other films rather than just recreating....either way it was a blast


Everybody Wants Some!!

Richard Linklater's "sequel" to Dazed and Confused....which is in no way an actual sequel but more a continuation of theme and feeling...follows a group of baseball players just before their new semester of school starts including four freshman

like Dazed and Confused this film is simple in plot....the transition of youth into adulthood and like Dazed and Confused it's well written, well shot, and very well acted....another great movie of just watching people live

I know the ED classrooms well. Lots of coloring, board games, and card games. No funding for computers or the internet. Algebra was the highest attainable math course offered within the system. NO trig, pre-calc, or calc. Science ended after Earth Science. No biology, chemistry, or physics. And you could forget about arts/music/humanities courses.

For a few years, we were short-bussed to an elementary school where we'd receive rudimentary art or music instruction... but these were 3rd grade teachers. It was an embarrassment.

But what did you think of the last two Star Trek films? PS: Isn't that actor dead? I'm guessing it was filmed before he died?

Did Leonard Nimoy have a cameo?

I'm still pretty shocked that dude died. He was really great in Charlie Bartlett
