Now when i was watching this movie i immediately realized that the storyline reminded me a lot of Bruce Willis' '16 Blocks' wherein the protagonist is in custody of a witness that he has to bring to a court to testify 16 blocks(hence the title) away from him. well the witness actually has to testify against most of the dirty cops in the area. And there lies his problem, he is being chased by the very people he know and trust. So the plot is basically surviving the 16 block travel.
Now on to 3:10 to Yuma. its almost the same plot. except its setting is the old west and the cargo is not a witness but a dreaded killer and fastest hand in the west ben wade(Russel Crowe). The protagonist Dan Evans(Christian Bale) is a lowly farmer who volunteers to escort the prisoner along with three other sheriffs for 200 hundred dollars. He was gonna use it so his family can survive. All he has to do is take the prisoner to the train station to Yuma and survive the gang that wants their leader, Ben Wade, back.
Starring:
Russell Crowe
Christian Bale
Logan Lerman
The story ends with Dan Evans loading Ben in the train heading for the prison in Yuma but gets shot by Ben's gang. Ben gets freed and swiftly kills all his gang. Ben mourns his lost friend Dan and peacefully boards the train to Yuma.

3:10 to Yuma
Grey's Anatomy - season 3
Well my new year was not the most fantastic of all new years. besides from being a thousand miles away from my family i actually spent it alone. and to top that i finished the third season of greys anatomy all in one sitting. how sad is that? while everyone is out there partying and watching awesome fireworks, i am indoors watching hospital drama. Well enough about me, Let's hop on over to my favorite website: Wikipedia.
Starring:
Ellen Pompeo
Sandra Oh
Katherine Heigl
Justin Chambers
T.R. Knight
Chandra Wilson
James Pickens Jr.

Eric Dane
Chyler Leigh
Brooke Smith
and Patrick Dempsey
Just a side comment, i actually liked enchanted which starred patrick dempsey. the soundtrack is still ringing in my head somewhere. actually its playing in my head right now when i think of it. Stop thinking of it, stupid mind!
Now on with the show. Last season, deni duket(This is not the right spelling cuz im so stupid) dies and izi is just heartbroken and spends hours with her face on the bathroom floor.. eeewww. omalley gets a new girlfriend. he actually gets a girl that wants to have sex with him and not just some sort of revenge sex. Meredith and omalley had sex which resulted in a fight that lasted for a few episodes.
On the production side. Preston Burke got dropped from the show for using a racial slur against t.r. knight(Omalley) calling him a faggot. The media got wind of this and later on resulted in Isiah washington(Preston) being fired. In the show, Preston and omalley are best friends. its actually funny that they are the ones to rum against each other in real life. I guess omalley will have to play his instrument on his own. Get it? huh? huh? huh? i meant musical instrument. Anyway, Derek leaves his wife and both derek and meredith agree to take it slow. Well there's nothing wrong with that.
