Moviejournal: Vantage Point

I know i haven't been diligent with this blog space lately, things are keeping me occupied and my free time are pretty much wrought out by work, trade, pointless online reading and watching video, sleep.

ok, vantange point. What a short film. it's 30 minutes of real time told in 8 different mini stories by different view point. the plot to assassin the POUS is not in itself a novel one, but the determination and elaboration in the plan are commendable.

But my (vantage) point is this: how shit it is to be the next US president? (it is an rhetoric question). first and foremost there is excruciating and imminent danger of getting killed anywhere in the public, for 4 years in a row none the least. The economy is heading to a black hole, with little resource in the way of rescue plan, foreign influence and relations continue to slide, war in iraq getting increasingly sour, oil price up, dollar down. Who would really in their right mindset be prepared to inherit the worst basket of doodoo at this time? and there are at last 3 ppl chasing it. unbelievable.
