Hell. Yeah.
I know some people don't like these movies, and those that liked the first one hated the second, but I don't care. It's not rational and I don't want to explain it, but I love these movies (probably the soundtrack?). The Wheel of Swordfighting in Dead Man's Chest was just awesome, and I won't let anyone tell me otherwise. Plus, if you didn't know the second one would be cliff-hangery, you should have, since they filmed two and three at the same time. Empire Strikes Back and Back to the Future 2 both ended in cliffhangers, plus Temple of Doom is terrible. One weak act does not necessarily ruin a trilogy.
“The cultural race to the bottom is a myth; we do not live in a fallen state of cheap pleasures that pale beside the intellectual riches of yesterday. And we are not innate slackers, drawn inexorably to the least offensive and least complicated entertainment available. All around us the world of mass entertainment grows more demanding and sophisticated, and our brains happily gravitate to that newfound complexity.” - Steven Johnson

The Rakes of Mallow
All of the Notre Dame football, general college football and college hoops stuff has moved over to Rakes of Mallow. Rob and I have put some work into it, and it almost isn't terrible at this point.
