The most underrated movie of the 1990s, but one of the best. Penned by the master, Patricia Arquette reverting to her reptilian brain. Pure awesome!

J'adore la nouvelle vague. Godard, Tu es le chef du cinema francais pendant les 1950s et serias toujour ma favori.

The classic biker flick. Two men, two bikes, a killer soundtrack

The perfect end to an amazing trilogy. Pure entertainment at its finest directed by a more than competent Sam Raimi.

The defining Bergman flick of all time. Man vs. Death to the death! As an interesting sidebar Bill and Ted's Bogus Journey spoofs the flick, in a stupid yet intelligent manner. I'm probably the only person to "get it" since the films inception.

Andrew Garrett Minks (born circa 1989 in Houston, Texas) is a Junior at the University of Texas. However the "No Child Left Behind" act left me behind allowing me to pursue an eclectic knowledge of cinema, television, music, history, and other Jeopardy worthy topics.

I am a full fledged wiki-expert and wiki developer through my Page Creations business which optimizes centiare listings. I also founded the centiare store and created a free public domain theater. I also just completed my first screenplay, Idle Riches, which I hope will get picked up and go into production soon. And if you were wondering the pie is from world famous Royers cafe and the picture was taken with my absolutely wonderful panasonic lumix.

[edit] Centiare Projects

[edit] Page Creations

Page Creations is a company I founded that for a fee will create a high quality centiare listing displaying whatever it is you seek using all of knowledge of Search Engine Optimization to place you or your entity at the top of any google search.

[edit] Public Domain Theater

Public Domain Theater is a project I'm working on that "shows nothing but the best public domain movies and music videos available on the old interweb". Along with a high quality embedded video each listing includes, posters, background details, and interesting trivia. Here is the list so far. It grows by a few videos each day.

[edit] Centiare Store

The Centiare Store is the official one stop shop to purchase any and all of the wonderful centiare merchandise your heart desires. After reading Fight Club +/- 10 times Tyler Durden will probably kill me for creating this but the green makes the world go round and keeps you from getting railroaded. Huh, I guess he's an elite/class theorist.

[edit] Views

[edit] Political

My political evolution has been rapid but done in a fairly intelligent manner. After bouncing down basically the same path for the past few years I have become an ardent Libertarian. I'm a "South Park Republican" and a "Daily Show Democrat" with huge respect for George Carlin and Milton Friedman. I would say I wish the government could just deliver the mail but they seem to fail at that as well. I'm laissez-faire on absolutely everything besides the environment. We are a tiny blue marble in an unquantifiably big ocean of nothing. The browner the marble gets the closer we get losing our few thousand years of organized knowledge. Finally, I feel job number one two and three of our government protecting the Bill of Rights at all costs. As long as you don't infringe on my personal liberties do whatever you want. Sodomy, any of the -filias besides pedo-, Kevorkian machines, it's all good.

[edit] Religious

After going back and forth from agnosticism to athiesm for a while I finally found my calling after reading The Gospel of the Flying Spaghetti Monster. The FSM will bless us all one day with his Noodly Appendage. Everlasting peace with a beer volcano and a stripper factory and no tithing! I also try really hard to adhere to the eight "I'd Really Rather You Didn'ts."^[1]

[edit] The Wiki-Industrial Complex

The wiki system puts the collective minds of the world together moving the human race (who's winning?) forward much faster than the library at Alexandria. However people are generally stupid and destructive creatures so modifications are nessesary. I have been editing Wikipedia for over 2 years and 3,000 edits, the utopian vision still burns bright but idiot IP address are slowly bending wikipedia over and thrusting.

Bring in Centiare, an infant still working out the kinks, but, at least it's running OS10 instead of XP. It allows glory whores to covet their own unique piece of cyberspace with opinions and everything! If the search engine optimize would stay on top of google 100% of the time instead of sporadically I would have full faith marketing a business around helping people get exposure on the internet. Most clients still appear with flying colors but the chance that I cannot guarantee absolute results every time deters me from pursuing the business further at this time.

[edit] Interests

[edit] Films

Let me preface this by saying - I'm a huge film guy - I love the stuff. I'm also a movie guy too which means i'll watch something by Fellini then turn around and watch Revenge of the Nerds for the tenth time. For a more complete list of films that have graced my presence see the note.^[2]

Favorite Ever:
1. Pulp Fiction
2. The Big Lebowski
3. Cidade de Deus
4. Goodfellas
5. À bout de souffle

[edit] Music

I really enjoy music but to be honest I'm more of a film guy. Don't get me wrong listening to the solo in hotel california is great but watching luc besson's camera work in the professional kicks considerably more ass. That said hearing comfortably numb is still better than watching all but the best cinema. For a bigger list of favorites see this note.^[3]

TOP FIVE:
1. Pink Floyd
2. Jimi Hendrix
3. Rage against the machine
4. Bob Marley
5. Van Halen (Not Van Hagar)

[edit] Quotes

In Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder, bloodshed — they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, five hundred years of democracy and peace, and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock.

-Harry Lime (Orson Welles from the Third Man)

Most people rebel because they want to be accepted or admired by others.

Democracies rarely exhibit much authoritarian behavior except in transition to or from authoritarian states. Many (if not most) citizens of authoritarian states do not perceive their state as authoritarian until late in its development. This makes it difficult to label modern states as 'democratic' or 'authoritarian'. People make this difficulty worse when they use these terms without clear definitions. - Wikipedia

I AM big. It's the PICTURES that got small.

-Norma Desmond (Sunset Boulevard)

Are you gonna bark all day, little doggy, or are you gonna bite?

-Mr. Blonde

It's better to burn out than to fade away

-Hey Hey, My My (Into The Black)

That's like your opinion man

-The Dude (The Big Lebowski)

Developers! Developers! Developers! Developers! Developers! Developers! Developers! Developers! Developers! Developers! Developers! Developers! Developers! Developers! Developers! Developers!

-Steve Ballmer

You have all one job today, to get Vincent Chase's brother Johnny Chase a job. Any job. I don't care if it is a porn shoot in which he is being gang-raped by a gaggle of silverback apes. If there are cameras rolling, everybody wins.

-Ari
