Denzel

Currently I am in a hotel in Plymouth Meeting, our rugby team has a tournament in Philly tomorrow, and were staying here over the night. On the bus ride down to Philly we watched two movies. First Blades of Glory. Funny movie, but thats about it. The second movie we watched was Remember the Titans. Much better.

Although I have to admit, at first I cringed when the choice was made. I dont know what it is, maybe there's only so much of kid version Hayden Panettiere I can handle, she's quite the brat at times. Or maybe its just that I've seen Remember the Titans literally a thousand times. Literally. But even though I never seek out or choose to watch Remember the Titans, I still get sucked in every time, without fail.

I blame Denzel. He's just so damn good at what he does. He somehow makes over acting look good. He's terrifying and always gets his characters spot on. I think I remember Arturo saying something about how hard he is too work with, which actually makes complete sense. He seems like he could be a little bit on the crazy bipolar side. And you can clearly see how he can go from 0 to all up in yo face in half a second. Sure, his reputation also probably doesn't help his attitude on set, but isn't that the case for all, or at least most, top-notch A-list actors? Every actor has an attitude problem. I feel like its a requirement to have an inflated ego if ou want to be a good actor.

Anyway, Denzel's a great actor, but I could definitely see how he can have an attitude problem. Yeah, I really wasn't sure how to end this blog post, so.......

Interesting Title

Hi everyone. My name is Kyle Riether. I'm a sophmore TV/R major. I hail from Langhorne, Pa, it's a philly suburb. Langhorne is home to Sesame Place, a big Sesame Street themed water park. That's about our only claim to fame. I'm a huge sports fan, especially baseball, and I play tennis here at Ithaca. I'm also the president of our ping-pong club on campus. My favorite tv show is How I met your mother. I'm hoping to go out to LA in the fall. I want our new athletic center to be done so we can have indoor tennis courts. Old school cartoons are the best. Period. Well, I realized this is just a random list of things but I guess it will help to get to know me. See you guys bright and early.
