I have nothing against Napster. I use it all the time as a way of getting music that isn't available commercially, checking out bands before I buy the CDs, and generally spreading an art form. I put my art online for all to see because I value the spreading of information and art more than I value getting money. This isn't Napster though. This is somebody charging for a service that should be free.
I personally liked the movie, although I agree that as far as plot goes it was pretty lame. I thought it was funny, though. Perhaps it's just my odd sense of humor, but the thing with the masks struck me as being ridiculous enough to be incredibly funny. The movie kinda sucked towards the end-- it got a little *too* predictable and tried too hard to be suspenseful and/or meaningful-- but in general it was fun. Not the sort of thing you go out and buy on DVD (and VHS, just in case your DVD player stops working) but also not the sort of thing after which you storm the box office demanding the refund. As far as the Matrix is concerned- I think Keanu was great for that role and pulled it off well. I honestly don't understand what problem people have with him. Then again, I haven't spent much time reading up on what it is people have against him.

Wait- so it's OK to stereotype as long as you limit it to a smaller age group? Seriously, it'd be OK if you just said teen girls are less likely to be into the intimate details of computer use than teen guys, but what you appear to be saying is that we tend to be teenyboppers.
For every teen girl out there who is on the net just to gossip and look for pages on boy bands, there is some teen guy out there on the net for the sole purpose of finding porn. For that matter, I know tons of guys who use AOL. I will grant that most of the so-called geeks I know are guys, but that doesn't mean the majority of the girls on the net are idiots. In fact, almost all the girls I know who use the net are reasonably intelligent, and many of them are brilliant. Sorry if that came out rude, it wasn't actually meant to. Just struck a personal note w/ me seeing as I'm 16 and female.
