Who's in this issue?
It was clever to have Wolverine volunteer himself as being one of McLawry's "victims" just for the sake of finding out where the bodies of Juwan and Tawanda Barnes were. However, from an investigating point of view, I honestly don't know how the evidence that Logan left behind could be used to convict McLawry: Brown's gun and a map to the two bodies. Now, unless those two bodies still have a bullet in them that could be traced back to McLawry's gun, there really isn't a case that could be build against McLawry since it could still be thought that Brown had used *his* gun to kill the two and buried them. And, since Logan cannot be an eyewitness to the crime or to McLawry's confession, there really isn't any hard evidence to convict McLawry. But, we'll just save this debate for the prosecutors and defense attorneys ...
Anyway, as most know already by now, this is the last issue of Wolverine for this ongoing series. A third series is due to be released in the end of May, titled Wolverine again, but with issues starting off at #1. Throughout the course of this 189 issues, we've seen many things happen with Logan: from his Patch identity, to some references to his Weapon X past, then the loss of his life (Mariko Yashida), the loss of his adamantium and the discovery that his claws were of bone origin, then his transformation into a feral beast which mysteriously vanishes, then him regaining his adamantium skeleton, and then these miscellaneous stories to close out the title. The series started off slow, then came some great stories and some not-so-great stories, and finally closing off with these mediocre stories. This series, in my opinion, ended with not much of a bang, so maybe it will be a good idea to start fresh at #1 with a whole new crew to revitalize this comic. Sure, the Top 100 comics being sold each month does usually see this title within the top 15, but I think it is more because of the character's popularity than the creativity of this book which drives this book's sale. Let's just hope that the new series will start off with a bang, and that the new 3rd ongoing series of Wolverine will result in a title whose run will be just as long or even longer than this 2nd ongoing series had gone.

"Good Cop, Bad Cop: Part 2 of 2"
Detective Lester Brown is being interrogated by his superiors, who are now investigating the disappearance of Tawanda and Juwan Barnes. They interrogate Detective Brown, since he would have a motive after Tawanda threatened to press charges against him for what he did to her son. They asked where he was the previous night (at Sullivan's, a local bar), whether anyone could confirm his story (McLawry could since he was there), and how he had gotten hurt (by a bunch of gangbangers). Detective Brown's superior points out that McLawry had been cleared of any wrongdoings in his shooting against the drug dealer to which Brown was investigating. As the two interrogators leave, Brown is told by his boss that he was suspended and had to turn over his badge and gun. Brown said that he didn't have his gun, and he didn't know where it was. Brown, infuriated, tells them that if they wanted to press charges against him to do so, but the interrogators tell him that they didn't have anything to charge him with, though with Brown going back to their apartment the previous night, the two occupants being missing, and the fact that Tawanda Barnes had wanted to file charges against him meant that it didn't look very good for Detective Brown's situation. Brown retaliates, saying that he wanted to go back to warn them before they were killed by McLawry for being eyewitnesses to the slaying of their neighbor. The interrogators ask Brown whether he knew beyond a doubt that they were dead for sure since no bodies were ever found. As they all step out of Brown's superior's office, Detective McLawry tells Murphy that he felt like celebrating, and the two head back to Sullivan's for another drink.
At Sullivan's, when McLawry went to wash up in the restroom, he is asked by Logan, using a urinal, how he felt getting away with murder. McLawry doesn't recognize Logan, so Logan refreshes his mind, saying he was the one whom McLawry bought the drink for, about an hour after he shot the kid, four hours after he shot the kid's mom, and eight days after he had shot their neighbor. McLawry gets right into Logan's face, demanding to know from Logan what he knew. Logan says he knows everything. Just then, Murphy enters the restroon to chcek on McLawry, and Logan leaves. McLawry leaves Murphy behind to give chase after Logan.
Outside, Logan catches McLawry's scent, and allows McLawry to follow him. McLawry hits Logan from behind, knocking Logan out and dragging the unconscious Logan to the back of the trunk of his car. They drive out of New York to a rural area. McLawry pops open the trunk, and armed with a shovel, demands to know how Logan found out about everything. Logan calls McLawry a coward and a murderer, to which McLawry's reaction was to hit Logan with the shovel. McLawry said that if it wasn't for narcotic detectives like him, even if it meant killing a few drug dealers along the way, the streets would be far worse than it currently is already. He tells Logan that he had buried Juwan and Tawanda in this same location, and though it was the hardest thing he ever had to do, it had to be done. Logan tells McLawry that he knows he killed the drug dealer not in self-defense, and Juwan had known what he had done. Tawanda was killed just to eliminate any witnesses to his killings. McLawry congratulates Logan for figuring everything out. He pulls out a pistol, and shoots Logan twice at point blank range into Logan's head. He buries Logan's body into the ground, and drives off. Moments later, Logan digs his way out of his grave once Logan's healing factor had sufficiently kicked in to heal him of his wounds.
Later on, Detective Brown is seen entering Sullivan's once again. The waitress asks Brown whether he wanted another drink. Detective Brown looks at her, and turns down the offer, saying he's not going to drink anymore. The waitress returns later on though with a glass of burbon, saying it was at the complements of the guy at the counter. She points to the spot where the guy had been, but there was no one there except for a package. Detective Brown heads over there, and opens the package. Inside was Detective Brown's missing gun, and a map detailing where Detective Brown could find the bodies of Juwan and Tawanda Barnes. Detective Brown dashes out, knowing he's got the evidence now to nab McLawry. Moments later, Logan steps out of the restroom after cleaning up himself. He notices the drink that he had bought McLawry had not been consumed, so he drinks it up.

|Texans offensive stars healthy, set to return against Saints
|Written by Admin
|Wednesday, 14 November 2007 13:14
For the first time since the second week of the season, Houston's top three offensive players should be healthy for Sunday's game against New Orleans.
Matt Schaub has recovered from a concussion, Ahman Green has had a week off to rest his troublesome knee and, perhaps most importantly, Andre Johnson is set to return after missing seven games with a sprained knee.
``There's a lot of bounce in everybody's step having those guys back, especially Andre,'' coach Gary Kubiak said. ``It means a great deal to this football team, not just the offense.''
The Texans (4-5) started the season 2-0 for the first time in franchise history behind the strong play of the trio. Johnson was injured near the end of the second game, and Green started struggling with a knee bruise and swelling soon after.
Schaub injured his hip on a helmet-to-helmet hit Oct. 21 and suffered a concussion on another one a week later. He missed one game recovering from the concussion.
Houston's passing game has been the strength of the team as Andre' Davis and Kevin Walter emerged in Johnson's absence. Now that he's back, the Texans will have that elusive threat to take pressure off him, a threat they've always looked for.
``At the beginning of the season, that was the big question that everyone asked about,'' Schaub said. ``But we knew what guys were capable of doing if given the opportunity. It was unfortunate that we had to have that displayed as a result of Andre getting injured.''
Johnson said he's not quite 100 percent, but he's healthy enough that he shouldn't be limited Sunday. After never missing extended time before in his career, he can't wait to return.
``I'll just be anxious to get out there and just make a play, because when you make that first play everything's back to normal again,'' he said. ``The biggest thing is just trying to get out there and make a play. But you don't want to do nothing crazy, go out there and try to make a play too fast and do something to hurt your team.''
Schaub and Johnson immediately clicked after the quarterback was traded from Atlanta in March. Their off-the-field rapport carried over in the first two games as they combined for 262 yards and three touchdowns.
``I think it was something special,'' Johnson said. ``A lot of people were surprised at how fast it happened, but that's what hard work does.''
So how long will it take for them to pick up where they left off after such a long break?
``I don't think it will take long,'' Johnson said. ``It goes by how we do in practice. Me and Matt talked about everything football-wise that we've seen on film and when we're on the field, so we were pretty much on the same page at all times.''
Though the whole team is excited about Johnson's return, Schaub might be looking forward to it most. Since Johnson has been injured he's thrown two touchdowns and six interceptions.
``I've never been around a player like that,'' Schaub said. ``He's so dependable and works extremely hard. If you give him an opportunity, he's going to make you look good and make big plays.''
Kubiak thinks Johnson's return could not only help the passing game, but also be a boost to the running game because he's such a threat. Houston has had trouble running while Green struggled with the knee problem. He has gained just 116 yards rushing since getting 144 in the first two games.
Even with Green healthy enough to start, the Texans will likely use Ron Dayne extensively. He had 21 carries for 122 yards in Houston's win over Oakland for the Texans' first successful rushing performance since Sept. 16.

text: It's my great honor to DJ this Tuesday for my dear friend and long-time Religious to Damn stylist Alberto's birthday. Truth be told, I'm not too keen on DJing. It seems to give so many of my loved ones great joy and satisfaction, and without a doubt, some of them have a knack for "getting the party started" and keeping the momentum. For me, it's an entirely different experience. I take on every song I play as if it were my own. That being said, seeing puckered up faces of disappointment only leads to frustration. I can't imagine why someone wouldn't want to hear the Bunnymen's "Over the Wall". Like, what's the world coming to? I asked Albert if I could have someone sit in with me while I played, to stave off any nerves. His response to me was: "Z, you play 5+ instruments. A DJ system is easy! And only YOU KNOW WHAT I LIKE." I wouldn't dare say no to that. I suppose I'm not immune to flattery getting ya somewhere.

Lake Erie College presents David W. Martine Former Chief of Overseas Operations for the CIA(Painesville, OH.) – As part of its ongoing lecture series, Lake Erie College will present Prosecuting a War Against Transnational Terror by David W. Martine, an experienced intelligence and law enforcement expert with a 30-year career in the Central Intelligence Agency and the Federal Bureau of Investigation. The lecture, offered free of charge and open to the community, will be held March 8 at 12:30 p.m. in the Morley Music Building.
Martine will reflect upon how the United States fought back after the 9/11 attack, analyze what the U.S. has done well and not so well in combating transnational terrorism and why the U.S. continues to struggle for success in Afghanistan and Iraq. He will bring to the forefront the question; can the fight against transnational terrorism be won?
While with the CIA, Martine has been in more than 70 countries with assignments including Chief of Counterintelligence, Chief of Detainee Elicitation Cell and Chief of Polygraph Operations in the Middle East. While assigned to the Middle East, he provided guidance and oversight regarding the tactical operations that led to the capture of high priority terrorist suspects. He has managed the disposition of captured terrorist suspects including the detention, interrogations and intelligence reporting. He also held a senior management position within the Office of Security, investigating espionage cases including industrial espionage by both internal and external operatives.
During his time with the FBI, his work included forensic science with expertise in crime scene investigations and the forensic analysis of firearms and tool marks related evidence. Martine worked as a firearms expert and crime scene analyst in the shooting incident of President Reagan and investigated and worked evidence in connection with Jimmy Jones and the Jonestown incident in Guyana, South America.
Following his career in law enforcement and national security, Martine began his work as an adjunct professor in the Intelligence Studies department at Mercyhurst College; served as a contractor to provide advanced training to customs and border protection; and as a principal associate with McManis & Monsalve Associates to provide training and analysis of operating procedures to eliminate risk resulting from internal processes to external threats.
Martine earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Criminal Justice from the University of Dayton and a Master of Science degree in Forensic Science from George Washington University. He has also pursued Post Graduate Study in Psychology at the University of Virginia and the American School of Professional Psychology.
RSVPs to 440-375-7230 or email@example.com are required, as seating is limited. Boxed lunches will be provided beginning at 12:15 p.m. Lake Erie College is located at 391 W. Washington St., Painesville, OH 44077.

Ballot counters in Grundy County had their work cut out for them Tuesday night, with more than a third of the county's registered voters casting their decision in the 2013 school elections. Nearly 1,000 people voted.
But the 988 votes is a 36.18 percent voter turnout for Grundy County, which Auditor Rhonda Deters says is the highest percentage turnout for a regular school election in the past 30 years.
"It's much higher than what we typically expect," she said on the phone Wednesday morning.
Grundy County voters were asked to weigh in on a bond issue to collect nearly eight million dollars for additions to the Grundy Center elementary and secondary school buildings.
The issue failed, with 58 percent of voters saying no. Superintendent Cassi Murra says the district will reassess its needs and get community input before presenting a new bond issue proposal. That proposal will probably take form September or December 2014.

LUBBOCK, TX (KCBD) - Whether you agree with the decision or not, the talk of the day was, of course, the firing of Coach Mike Leach and Jerry's Barber Shop at 66th and University was no exception.
After Wednesday's announcement, the overwhelming reaction is extreme disappointment. "I'm proud to be from Lubbock, when I travel and I travel quite a bit and tell them where I'm from, I'm proud to say I'm from Lubbock and Texas Tech but after today, I'm almost ashamed," said Paul Parker.
And many across town are pointing their finger at Texas Tech Athletic Director Gerald Myers. "As long as Gerald Myers is there, he is gone and it's a shame," said one customer.
"The consensus of the barber shop is to hang Myers and keep Leach that's been this topic of this day," said an employee.
While the majority of fans feel it was a bad move on the university, but there are some that think otherwise. "It will depend a lot on what happens in the next few days. I think people will be surprised how it settles down once they get the word out of why they let him go," said one Tech fan.
But whoever is the coach many say they still plan to support the Red Raiders in this weekend's bowl game.

An attempt to find the missing CEO of Italian fashion house Missoni using social media has been launched by the fashion heir's son.
Vittorio Missoni and his wife, Maurizia Castiglioni, have been missing since Friday morning. The couple were returning home from a Christmas holiday when the small plane they were travelling in disappeared off the coast of Venezuela. Two other passengers and the aircraft's two pilots are also missing.
The 58-year-old businessman's son, Ottavio Junior, has launched a Twitter campaign to raise awareness of the rescue mission using the hashtag #findvittoriomissoni.
Vittorio Missoni - who is the eldest son of the brand's founders, Ottavio and Rosita Missoni - was flying over the coastal islands of Los Roques when the plane disappeared from radar and radio contact half an hour after take-off. Venezuelan emergency workers have been in search of the plane along with hundreds of workers, several aircraft and boats ever since.
In a statement released on Monday 7 January, Vittorio's sister Angela Missoni said:
'We are all moved by the affection and help that we have had from the whole world and thankful to the Authorities for their tireless search and rescue efforts.
At this time, we have no further specifics regarding the search except to say we are confident they will continue at the same pace and the search with explore all possibilities. Our deepest thanks go to the multitude of supporters that have reached out to us from all over the world.
We are full of hope and trust the great work the Authorities have been doing so far. We will not give up.'

He missed the entire 2008 season with a neck injury, but bounced back last year, with 56 tackles and two sacks in 18 games, including playoffs.

I've read that you should try to keep you shoulders behind the bar when you're setting up to do deads. I can do it when I'm doing conventional but not sumo. How important is shoulder position?
It's extreamly important because it keeps your back flat and not rounded.
How is this guy's form? It looks like his shoulders are over and infront of the bar.
Looks okay . I personally need to sit back more to deadlift comfortably.
But I've also only done sumo's a few times so maybe it is better to lean that far forwards.
This is what I've read...
The Dead Zone
The Top 10 Deadlifting Mistakes and How to Fix Them
by Dave Tate
Mistake #8: Not keeping your shoulders behind the bar
You've already read this a few times in this article and it's perhaps the most important thing next to hip position in the execution of the deadlift. Your shoulders must start and stay behind the barbell when you pull deadlifts! This will keep the barbell traveling in the right direction and keep your weight going backward. The deadlift isn't an Olympic lift and shouldn't be started like one.
I did a seminar with Dr. Mel Siff at one of his Supertraining camps (one of the best investments you can ever make!) and we showed the difference between the two positions. For the Olympic lifts you want the shoulders in front of the bar; for the deadlift you want them behind the bar. Period. The amount of misinformation out there about this is incredible.
If you keep your shoulders behind the bar, you're practially dragging the bar up your shins.... It's a lot easier keeping your shoulders behind the bar when doing conventional deads.

Daily Dispatches From The Global Scene
Carla Bruni-Sarkozy is in town this week doing the talk show circuit. Last night on the Late Show, David Letterman drooled over La Première Femme in the sweetly hilarious way that only he can do, cracking wise about how President Sarkozy ever gets anything done. In spite of the flirtation, the singing First Lady was relegated to performing a song from her newish album Comme Si de Rien N'Etait online only. This morning, on the Today Show, Matt Lauer asked about her husband's conservatism, her racy lyrics, and her thoughts on soon-to-be American counterpart Michelle Obama. On the lattermost subject, she said, "I'm looking forward to meeting her.… She looks like a great, strong, intelligent woman." (Lauer restrained any flirtatious inclinations but did make time for her to sing on-air.) When he asked if she had any advice to give the First Lady-Elect on raising young children in the spotlight, Mme Sarkozy deferred to the indomitable Mrs. Obama. "She doesn't look like she needs advice.… It would be better for me to get advice from her." When the two inevitably meet, we wonder if they'll discuss Alaïa.

This morning Mother Jones published a funny and infuriating article on its web site titled "America's 50 Worst State Legislatures: Because it's never good when your state's greatest legislative achievement is 'WrestleMania Appreciation Week.'"
True thing: I started reading it for the express purpose of finding out which state has a legislature ridiculous enough to waste time enacting a WrestleMania Appreciation Week.
Turns out, it's us.
The story also notes the Gold Dome's recent nutso conspiracy-mongering, ongoing rampant misogyny and, of course, the one-man state-shaming machine called Don Balfour.

A sweet variation on zucchini, perfect for when the garden supplies more than you're expecting! This cake was a treat... I used my favorite bittersweet chocolate bar, cut up into small chunks as the chocolate chips and I made the cake with butter and baked it as a bundt cake - gorgeous!
I made this cake and used a bit less sugar. I made the lemon cream cheese frosting (with only 1/3 cup of icing sugar) to go with it and then I drenched the bottom lawyer and the very top with a partridgeberry chocolate sauce (just partridgeberries and semi-sweet chocolate. It was very rich and quite delicious. I am making it again right now!
Yummy. Next time will bake only 35 min. Baked for 40 and could use less time. I used canola oil rather than butter. Very chocolatey...everyone loved it.

I see this morning that the Dodgers are 11 1/2 out of first. Will they win the NL West? We all know they won't. But they could. I can't help but remember my early years as a baseball fan. The Dodgers were cruising in August 1951. They had been 8 games up on the Giants in July and on August 11, 1951 they had stretched it out to 13 1/2 games. There were just 44 games remaining in the season. The Giants had no chance, but someone forgot to explain the laws of probability to them. When Bobby Thomson hit the home run known as The Shot Heard Round The World that won the pennant for the Giants in a three-game playoff, it was an incredible shock to fans everywhere. The Miracle of Coogan's Bluff was not just about one hit in one game. Everyone at the park and listening to the radio that day (including me) had watched the Giants claw they way back into it, inning by inning, day by day, as the dog days of August turned into September.
The Dodgers haven't been very good this year, but there are 54 games remaining in the season. Maybe there is another miracle available somewhere. Maybe they will call up a rookie that sets them on fire. The Giants called up a kid named Willie in 51. He went on to have a pretty good career.
Ever since the summer of 1951, I never give up hope until there is none left to give.

Tucker Carlson Calls Chris Matthews a Moron for Likening Rick Perry to Segregationist Bull Connor
As NewsBusters previously reported, Chris Matthews on Tuesday likened Texas governor Rick Perry to segregationist Bull Connor.
On Fox's "America's Newsroom" Wednesday, Daily Caller editor Tucker Carlson took exception with this (video follows with transcript and commentary):
MARTHA MACCALLUM, HOST: You know, what do you make of, you know, sort of the heat that Rick Perry got for talking about Ben Bernanke that way?
TUCKER CARLSON, DAILY CALLER: Well, it's coming from a couple of different places. It's coming from the Left of course which has also been trying to paint Rick Perry as a racist. Some moron on another cable channel compared him to Bull Connor yesterday, etc., etc. That's predictable.
That predictable "moron" would be Matthews:
Readers are reminded that last month, Carlson said, "Very few people have done more to divide the country than Chris Matthews."
As such, this was just the latest example of the "Hardball" host proving the point.
Here are some more since Carlson made this observation:
- Chris Matthews: News Organizations Are 'Going to Spend Every Nickel They Have' Investigating Rick Perry
- Chris Matthews Thrilled His Regulars Think Perry's Easier for Obama to Attack Than Romney
- Chris Matthews: 'Paul Ryan Stuck His Neck Out and [Obama] Punched His Head Off' Matthews'
- Shameless Smear: Rush Wants to End Integration of Schools and Military
- Chris Matthews: Southern 'Secessionists' Want to 'Kill' Obama...'Politically'
- Chris Matthews: 'Thug' Republicans Are 'Muggers' Who 'Assault' Obama
- Matthews Mars Giffords' Return By Connecting Tea Party and 'Violent Level of the Right-Wing'
- Unhinged Chris Matthews Smears Tea Party Republicans as Baby-Kidnapping 'Terrorists' for Debt Deal
- Chris Matthews Lies About Ronald Reagan as Way to Smear 'Terrorist' Republicans
Add it up, and in the past 30 days, Matthews has made no less than eleven highly divisive comments on the air.
Think Carlson has a point?

Tucker Carlson is snarky, but he makes good points on occasion. This is one of those occasions
Funny, I could swear the opposition to Beck was that he would make assumptions based on what *he* saw and how it fit with history {conspiracy theories in their words} yet once again, it was just projection/softening us up for when THEY did this bs. Which is NOT the same thing IMO. Beck was clear it was how he saw it, and woulld LOVE to be wrong, whereas Matthews and his ilk are convinced they are right and are are gleefully smearing in service to Pres. Obama!

liberal? I'll take a smarmy conservative because they are normally factual but their delivery can be a little snotty, sometimes towards other conservatives.
Carslon makes a good point and the most racist people in US history have been Democrats, and not just southern ones. Look at what the liberal whites did in New York, Boston, Philly, Chicago, etc. in the 60's and 70's protests. Now they go overboard in trying to act like the blacks' saviors. Liberal white people are such an embarrassment acting like they can "get down" and "rap." What jokes!

Wright refuses to buy into pathetic MSM bait tactics
Wright's not stupid and he's been very careful during his time with the Mets in not criticizing anyone openly. He's not controversial and the media isn't going to get anything of use from him of the "pay me or trade me" variety. Therefore what he doesn't say gets magnified and extrapolated into reading between nonexistent lines.

Work began Tuesday to connect the Bluffton Parkway to US Highway 278.
The construction crew said they're doing all they can to help what some think is an unsightly situation.
Where the Bluffton Parkway ends now - construction crews are beginning the fifth phase to link it US Highway 278 - essentially bridging Bluffton to Hilton Head Island.
The project costs about $45 million - some of the money comes from state and federal aid. The rest is coming from the penny transportation tax that voters approved in 2006.
The changes haven't come without controversy.
"I know a lot of the objections are around, 'Is this going to be really ugly?'" said Marry Briggs, president and CEO of the Hilton Head Symphony Orchestra.
Briggs didn't grow up in Beaufort County, but she has grown with it and sees all the concrete as progress.
"Process and change is always going to involve some inconvenience. I was working in Beaufort during the years that they were doing the initial paving to 278, and it was not really a lot of fun and the result was great," she said.
For some, it's difficult to focus on the end result especially when construction crews are going to be just feet from homes - impacting noise levels and the environment and well, people's lives.
Tobin Construction crews started their work Tuesday. One crew member said they do all they can to reduce their bio-footprint.
The little walls make a big difference when the soil is moved around on purpose and when nature plays in their project.
The crew does their best to keep erosion in check and the integrity of the land surrounding the road.
Years ago, a similar situation happened.
"When they put the Cross Island Expressway in on the island, everyone was worried about that, but they did a lot of work to make that attractive and not unsightly," said Deryll Stevens of Tobin Construction.
The bottom line - avoid the bottle-necking at the end of the Bluffton Parkway.
"You want to wait in traffic or you don't - we['re] just here to help the city," Stevens said.
Some folks say the project will change the look of their scenic island. Others say the new flyover will help everyone get to from the island faster.

It pains me to say it, but Neil Jordan's new film, the vigilante flick The Brave One, doesn't really merit much of a mention in the pages of Reverse Shot, so this blog blurt will do. This hurts because this is a film from a director we really, really, really respect. Rarely does a filmmaker of Jordan's gifts plummet so drastically off the edge of good taste and judgment as he has here; I haven't read an Armond White recouping mission yet, but Jordan defenders (of which I have often been one) may have to do some serious scrambling, digging, and wishful thinking here.
The only excuse for the film, which doesn't let Jordan off the hook one iota, is that the film is so clearly another in a long line of Jodie Foster vanity projects, apparent from the flattering dialogue (one character calls her "skinny but with a nice ass"...impossible the character would know since she was sitting down during the entire scene) to the Sarah McLachlan tunes on the soundtrack (taken from Jodie's latest mix CD?). Foster is not just a formidable screen presence but also possibly the only over-40 actress who can still, consistently, open a film at number one at the box office based on her star power alone: that's an astonishing feat and nothing to be sniffed at. As evidenced from interviews, she tailors projects to her liking, changes scripts and sculpts stories and characters to fit her world view and the needs of her persona. Foster undoubtedly had as much say in the resulting lopsided catastrophe of The Brave One as producers, writers, and the woebegone director, who must have felt a serious ego-clash with his own. None of this is to disparage Foster, who remains mesmerizing onscreen, and who has an amazing ability to remain an icon of female individuality in a dream machine where wives, prostitutes, and slutty gfs are the norm. Yet the film's inability to sufficiently complicate the Foster image is its main downfall, as its repetitive, dully filmed (paranoia = tilty camera!) Death Wish structure allows her to kill a parade of muggers and nefarious baddies who, always at the last minute, say or do something which validates the audience's blood lust—the most egregious: when a couple of subway-riding black punks, who really only seem to be after some kid's iPod, turn on Foster with a blade and ask her if "she's ever been fucked by a knife"? Blammo.
Even more egregious than the film's moral simplicity and visual uninspiration, though, is the sheer stupidity of the script. Nearly every line has a Haggis-like mix of overexplanation and political self-righteousness, even contriving Foster as an NPR-like radio personality so that she can wax poetic on the "disappearing New York City" (which includes that old chestnut, little Plaza Hotel-dwelling Eloise) and, when she starts killing, on her own "stranger within." And when the radio show is opened up to live call-ins, we get, naturally, a flood of stock actor voices regurgitating conveniently opposed views to denounce or praise the actions of the infamous vigilante crime-fighter--for some added topicality, someone says, "It's like what's going on in Iraq!" Well, no, in fact. Not at all. The biggest eye-rolls come courtesy of Terrence "baby wipes" Howard's detective ("the only living cop in New York," as my friend chuckled), who literally is on every crime scene of Foster's random killing spree: whether it's on the Upper West Side or Roosevelt Island, they always conveniently seem to be in his jurisdiction.
Furthermore, the ending is so risible, illogical, and morally and racially dubious that it could never be mistaken for anything other than thoughtless Hollywood hackery. I won't give it away, lest someone wants to experience some incredulous gasping guffaws. Rarely does a film with such formidable talent feel so defeated, weak-willed, and confused. The film's success might encourage Jordan to keep taking for-hire projects (hopefully to fund his long-gestating Borgias project), but one can only hope he'll be more discerning next time; even his less-than-worthy earlier films like Interview with the Vampire and In Dreams showed off both visual invention and a tantalizingly idiosyncratic world view, despite their tendencies toward narrative incoherence. The Brave One is a craven mess, lacking in any of the deeply human qualities that its director usually effortlessly conveys.
robbiefreeling | September 18, 2007 5:48 AM
Certainly don't expect realism at all from a Jordan film; it's narrative coherence and lack of suspect moral ideology I expect. And for characters to behave in rational, logical ways. For Terrence Howard to suddenly decide to let Foster off the hook for her crimes and take the blame was a nonsensical dramatic device (which did, in fact, make the film's one righteous main character into just another revenge-hungry criminal). The actors couldn't make that ridiculous reversal work.
As for the film being a vanity project, yes, in fact, I think it is. But I never said that's inherently a bad thing (I'll watch "Yentl" or "Looking for Richard" any day of the week); I was just trying to explain the inherent disconnect I felt between star and director while watching this film. More apparent when you can trace the Foster persona so directly and consistently throughout her work.
As for McLachlan...yeah, 40-something women are her demographic. I thought it was an odd, dissonant choice for a director who's so distinguished himself with his brilliant selections of appropriate pop tunes throughout his career (see Butcher Boy, Crying Game, Breakfast on Pluto...). Pop treacle isn't normally his thing...but you're right, who knows?
Finally, as for Foster as an auteur...you will meet no one more adoring than me....I think Foster's Home for the Holidays is one of the best films of the 90s...severely underrated and a film that I plan on writing a lengthy essay on in the proper pages of Reverse Shot some day soon. Foster is a fantastic director; here, though, we have a clash of sensibilities, and it results in a muddle.
Dottie | September 18, 2007 1:19 AM
"she tailors projects to her liking, changes scripts and sculpts stories and characters to fit her world view"
Isn't this what all auteurs, nay, all ARTISTS do? If a director controls every aspect of the film, he's considered an artist. If an actor controls every aspect of the film, it's considered a vanity project?
Poor instance of criticism, in my opinion.
Also, a hint of chauvinism:
"Sarah McLachlan tunes on the soundtrack (taken from Jodie's latest mix CD?)"
Right. Because only 40-something women like Foster listen to Sarah McLachlan.
Anyone who sees the final image as somehow "redeeming" the Foster character (and thus not complicating the Foster image) needs to seriously check his/her moral attitudes.
The ending is definitely a trick. Didn't see it as racially dubious (?) It did work narratively. I'm just not sure it did thematically.
I never thought one should expect realism in a Jordan film.
A flawed project. I'd still say that Michael Collins is Jordan's worst film.
Dogstar | September 18, 2007 1:17 AM
The ending of Mona Lisa and two or three other Jordan movies is just as loopy as the ending to The Brave One.

Vomiting is awful. There's no denying it. There aren't many illnesses that make you feel worse than when you have some sort of stomach virus; you just want to know how to make it stop.
Before you start treating your vomiting, make sure you know what is causing it. How you treat vomiting very much depends on the cause.
If you are looking for ways to treat your vomiting, you have come to the right place. We'll take you through each step so you can figure out how to control your vomiting and get to feeling better quickly.
When you are treating vomiting due to a stomach bug, or gastroenteritis, the first step is to let your stomach rest.
After you stop vomiting, don't attempt to eat or drink anything for 15 to 20 minutes so you can allow your stomach time to recover. Giving the muscles in your stomach time to rest after vomiting reduces the chances that you will vomit once you start eating and drinking again.
