I disagree about Oswald. I think there's enough proof to prove he acted alone. For starters, with the technology we have available today the entire event can be computer simulated. They can gather imformation about bullet wounds and the path of the bullet and so on. That's just one thing. There are witness accounts and so on. This has just become so mythologized in America that people don't want to accept it. This is our Jack the Ripper.

Here's a link to an article by Vincent Bugliosi if anyone's interested. He's got a decent take on it. As usual.

How many times do I have to say this? It doesn't matter if the movie is about John Lennon or John Doe. They are profiting from someone's horrible act of murder, and giving more status and power to the murderer.

I feel the same way about the Karla Homolka film that was released in 2004 and she didn't murder anyone famous.



I'm an alligator, I'm a mama-papa coming for you
I'm the space invader, I'll be a rock 'n' rollin' b**** for you
Keep your mouth shut,
you're squawking like a pink monkey bird
And I'm busting up my brains for the words

I don't see what's so bad about a movie about Mark Chapman... There are plenty of movies about Adolph Hitler... Interesting stories have to be told... And if Mark Chapman for some reason decided to fly from Hawaii to New York to kill his hero, I want to know how & why.

And I definately don't think the movie glorifies Mark Chapman. I don't think anyone would like to be portrayed in a movie the way he was. He came off as a complete nerd who was just so freaky and weird that he managed to scare off even the friendliest and most patient people.

Anyway, I saw "Chapter 27" today. Didn't think it was really good. Basically it's just Jared Leto dressed up as Mark Chapman holding an 80 minute monologue... That's pretty much all it was.
