The Dangerous Days of Daniel X

James Patterson is best known for his Alex Cross character (portrayed by Morgan Freeman in Along Came a Spider and Kiss the Girls) and ABC's (probably) short-lived Women's Murder Club series. He's got a new book coming out called The Dangerous Days of Daniel X.

Daniel X chronicles the adventures of a conflicted yet extraordinary teen who yearns to discover secrets about himself and his family as he battles alien outlaws who threaten life on Earth.

Well...going on that Regency has picked up the rights to the book and plan to make a movie out of it.

Sounds pretty interesting to say the least, the book hits shelves in July of this year.

Gone Baby Gone.

As I sit here listening to "Morning Glory" by Oasis and thinking about everything (and I really mean everything) I am reminded of the movie I just watched. Gone Baby Gone which starred Casey Affleck, Michelle Monaghan, Ed Harris, and Morgan Freeman. I'm going to do something I don't do too often.

Gone Baby Gone is my number one movie of the year.

That's right folks, Gone Baby Gone, is such a fantastic fucking flick. I loved the flick so much that I deemed it my number one flick. Casey Affleck, I think, has beaten John Cusack out for my best actor (not really, though the younger Affleck fucking shines in this flick). Ben Affleck, I never lost faith in you, not for a second. I don't give a fuck if you engaged yourself to Jennifer Lopez, I knew you had this shit in you. Seriously, I have never once hated a Ben Affleck flick. I even liked Gigli (it's not really that bad). Ben Affleck and Matt Damon are heckled because they're well-received. Both Bostonites, and both great actors. Ben Affleck might have found a new calling though, with this shit, because it was fantastic.

Not to mention that Ed Harris and Morgan Freeman were both fantastic. And even Taggart from Beverly Hills Cop II. You didn't think I'd include him, did you? And Michelle Monaghan is fucking gorgeous. Ben Affleck has done right by me, man. He's never once failed me in any aspect. Surviving Christmas is a little sketchy, but...a guy needs a paycheck right? This year, the Ben Affleck/Matt Damon combo came through a winner.

The Bourne Ultimatum and Gone Baby Gone. Gone Baby Gone is definitely number one on my list, and who knows where the Ultimatum will land.
