for those 'suck it up buttercup' fans...

...Sam Elliot gives a realistic portrayal of what clinical depression looks like and what it feels like. unless the buttercup has some mood stabilizing effect, ain't no bed of roses.

Did they actually get Sam Elliot for the voiceover? If so, awesome.

> and you're um ... Johnny Cochran

As long as I'm Sam Elliot
And my horse is on fire.

I thought everyone was - at least a little - obsessed with penis size.

I have to say if this video riles up gun nuts that says a lot about them. It's hardly the most incisive anti-gun advocacy.

It's funny though and Clearly Sam Elliot is amazing.

Yeah, Sam Elliot doing voiceover. On top of everything else you have to be impressed with the voice talent they've recruited for this campaign.

promote He reminds me of a band I knew called Unified Theory. They sound much alike except Jack's is slightly darker and his is nearly a one man show.


I thought of Elliot Smith myself.

Let me try my top 21 predictions for the next decade! A lot of this will be US centric.
1. HDTV dimensions will increased from 1920x1080 to 3840x2160.
2. Screens will be increased to print pixel depths. 300dpi is only the beginning.
3. An affordable, flexible LCD material will change the tech and advertising world. Maybe the material can be cut to fit any size?
4. The war in Iraq will be over. But the occupation will last for decades. Other wars in the Middle East will continue.
5. Sarah Palin will never be President.
6. The US Deficit will grow to a historical high. As the Dollar and the Renminbi compete for world currency a new Cold War will be declared.
7. Top 40 music will suck.
8. The browser will be integrated as part of the OS and no longer treated as just software. Your work software (IDEs, Microsoft Word, Excel, etc.) will be treated as online plug-ins, savable (with versioning) in the cloud.
9. Electricity will be wireless.
10. Reality Shows will be the new sitcom. Again.
11. China's working class will stage small worker union revolts, but the scale and number will be dramatically inflated by the media.
12. Tommy Lee Jones, Adam Ant, Joel Coen, Matt Groening, Bill Clinton, Lorne Michaels, Sam Elliot, Rudolph W. Giuliani, Steve Jobs and Roy Scheider. One of them will probably pass away.
13. Google will acquire Facebook.
14. Apple's stock will drop if Jobs passes away. They'll try to embody the innovate spirit of Jobs, but they'll miss the mark and stick to just updating the current products like iPod, iPhone, Macbooks, etc.
15. There will be an assassination attempt on a Congressman. Congress will pass into law the Vigilant Act that declares DC to "be at war". As a result no civilians except current residents are permitted to enter. Under the Act any type of search and seizure in DC is legal. To counteract the bad press, the America Museum is opened in Virginia.
16. GM will file for bankruptcy.
17. Like the huge increase in gas prices as become part of day for the US, the people will grow accustomed to the high rate of unemployment. Politicians will no longer talk about gas prices or unemployment.
18. Marijuana is legalized in three states. It's legalized for medicinal use in seventeen states.
19. Autism is linked to the artificial sweetener, Aspartame.
20. Most internet enabled TVs and projectors become equipped with a'la carte system of channel ordering. So you only buy what channels you want streamed to your tv.
21. A new phone technology is developed that works a lot like bit torrent. The phone's signal piggy backs off other phones in the area, and the more phones in an area the better the signal. Most people, however, turn this feature off because it's rumored to be a security weakness.


To answer a select few points:

1. I thought 4k displays would be up next? (4096×3072; as a coder I hate widescreens. I need horizontal screen real estate).
3. This will happen sooner than we'd like
7. When did it not?
9. See 3.
Addendum to 21: We will see a surge of private networks, linked by VPNs and shared by friends; mostly done by people trying to run away from all the crass advertisements and data gathering schemes in the net today.

Oh, come on, nothing in that film was breathtaking.

It had some nice moments, some seriously plumped up Nicole Kidman lips... Sam Elliot playing, well, Sam Elliot... but anything that was breathtaking, this was a fairly by the book battle scene really, at least in today's age of cg Lord of the Rings, then The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe etc.

upvote for Sam Elliot.

Sam Elliot is that guy's name, kulpims. He's the voice over at the start as well. Thanks for this post--I watch this movie all the time. Great.
