Project D-Day
The D stands for Documentary.

Fahrenheit 9/11:It was definitely a good idea that George W. Bush didn't comment on this film directly. Otherwise he would've just created more ammo for Michael Moore to use. Speaking of MM, I'm glad he has a nice sense of humour. Imagine 2 hours of a really long explanation of Bush's familial ties to the Saudis and bin Laden family without any jabs. It would've been insufferable. Although Bush doesn't need much help to make us laugh. And what's with Bush giving a semi-press conference during his vacation, then asking the reporters to "Now, watch this drive"? And asking "Did anybody say nice shot"? And this guy runs the most powerful country on Earth? The American media is so skewered. It must be hell to live in that country to be pumped so full of fear of nonexistent terrorists and nonexistent weapons of mass destruction and nonexistent everything else. So the CBC is good for something after all.

Super Size Me:It's amateurish. And Morgan Spurlock isn't as funny as Michael Moore. But this guy had the guts to risk getting heart attacks and strokes. If MM made this movie, he would probably be undergoing a triple heart bypass surgery or something. The worst part was seeing him throw up. Then seeing what he threw up in the parking lot. But the evil McDonald's art was pretty neat.

Not part of Project D-Day, but still cool.
Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban:The cinematography is much better. And it's just classier overall. Good job, Alfonso. Although I do feel that HP's format is getting a little old. Every movie/book starts out with Harry getting a warning about someone out to kill him before he even gets to Hogwarts. Then at Hogwarts, Harry, Hermione, and Ron play Nancy Drew and find out what the hell's going on. Then comes the Quidditch match. A fight ensues in which Ron and Hermione are often in danger, but recover. And Harry finds out something about his parents and his shady past. The End. Other than that, the movie was really enjoyable. I think after reading GRRM, you expect more deaths, more changes in the characters other than puberty, and more conflict for the characters in general. But alas, this is still a kids book. Deaths don't go over well.

HP and GRRM - Harry should meet Arya.

ASoIaF fans discussing HP. Oh wait, you're a Muggle when it comes to the books. Never mind.

There's a theory that "Halfblood Prince" could refer to Hagrid, who is half giant.
