Why do documentaries seem to get the short end of the stick when it comes to movie making. Telling a true story is hard enough but to tell a story and convey an emotion of loss or regret to expressing happiness and joy and the whole time doing it with regular people not actors who rely on using fake emotions unless you have a good actor that knows how to act. After watching "Gonzo: The Life and Work of Dr. Hunter S. Thompson", how does a director express insanity in the form of creativity. You would have to really tackle a project like that with the force of 30 chimpanzees all from the African bush to pull of something with that extreme magnitude. But it was done. And done well.

Alex Gibney does a great job of showing us a lot of great videos and interviews about HST with some of his best friends. Seeing the dude from the Hells Angels who beat the shit out of Hunter to getting McGovern to talk about him and be completely open to what happened in that 1972 election. Some of Gibney other films like, "Taxi to the Dark side" and "Enron: Smartest Guys in the Room" are some great works of film that have been recognized with acclaim and accolades but why does it always seem that documentaries have to be some sort of underground buzz about them. That the general population will not watch a movie unless it has explosions or Ben Stiller in it? Why do Americans feel the need, no, the right to be stupid and feel that having intelligence is something of an elitist side of America. Should we not embrace the intelligent. Parents say to their children everyday they are off to school to learn something. Yet, when people grow up they are expected to conform to everyone else's likes. Be creativity and think and take drugs if you want to. Explore the world of ones imagination and do not feel like you are beholden to someone else's idea. Filter your world with your own set of aviators.

A great movie to watch "Gonzo: The Life and Work of Dr. Hunter S. Thompson" 5 high water mark stars.

No way Mr. Dumars you are fucking idiot. To trade away some of your best players. An when I mean best, YOUR BEST PLAYERS! Granted Antonio McDyess is running on empty but the man will still put up some decent minutes, get points and rebounds and for is a solid team player but to let go the guy that has been the rock for your team Chauncey Billups for A.I. Allen "Practice" Iverson. I like A.I. determination and his ability to make something out of nothing but here we have a shooting guard on his decline with Chauncey. While Mr. Billups maybe getting older he is getting wiser. He is still one of the top people in the league that I would want to control the tempo of my offense and a very good defensive players. Top five PG on Cj's list in no particular order: Steve Nash, Chris Paul, Tony Parker, Chauncey Billups, Deron Williams. These are the five people any team would love to get and Denver has them now. Denver has a real chance to make a run into the playoffs now with an experienced ball handler and a guy that can score. If they still had Camby for defense and rebounds they would a very solid team. Detroit has shot itself in the foot and Joe Dumars is slowing losing his mind. Maybe all of the Piston players as of late are losing it mentally. Well except for Bill Laimbeer of course. Maybe that punch in the face by Robert Parish smacked some sense into him.
