Stay is apparently horrible. It had a 0% rating on rottentomatoes a few days ago.

[Hakeem]

me and Ebert liked it :p

its very confusing, until the ending when its less confusing but you're still not sure what happened.

Lets start our own for this week. We'll just bootleg it, take all the SF decals, links and make it our own.

How coincidental that Johnny forgot to do the 10/29 B.O.S. last year and the 10/28 B.O.S. this year??? :confused: I guess Halloween weekend just brings out extra laziness for Johnny.
