Am I?

"When an artist doesn't explain his art, that is pretentious."
I've watched like 4 movies in the past 4 or 5 days. It started with The Shawshank Redemption then it went to Garden State on TV, after that it was the Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, followed by Requiem for a Dream, and finally today Donnie Darko. I guess that's five, not four. I have another movie, 21 grams, downloaded. I'll probably watch it tomorrow when I'm out for Thanksgiving break.
God, movies are awsome. I wish my life would end with some sort of storybook ending like in Donnie Darko or Garden State, but I have trouble accepting the fact that this shit is fake. Real life is so boring compared to movie life, but clearly movies are shown for its action otherwise they wouldn't sell. I love the quote at the end of Donnie Darko where he says, "Deus ex machina" I'll leave it to you to figure out the history behind those words.
