There will be blood
So i was watching some movies over the weekend, and "There will be blood" happened to find its way into the stack.
I thought it was going to be some old western revenge shooter, but it turned out to be a movie based solely on irony.
I must say i was rather dissappointed with the movie until the last 10minutes, where everything fell together, and had me laughing... big time... at the sheer irony of the movie.
Heavy atheist vs theist over tones through out the movie, i found it comical... in my sick fashion

Draaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaiiiiiiiiinaaaaaage! Eli, you boy!
Just keep your straw away from my damn milkshake!
Eli Sunday: Daniel, I'm asking if you'd like to have business with the Church of the Third Revelation in developing this lease on young Bandy's thousand acre tract. I'm offering you to drill on one of the great undeveloped fields of Little Boston!
Plainview: I'd be happy to work with you.
Eli Sunday: You would? Yes, yes, of course. Wonderful.
Plainview: But there is one condition for this work.
Eli Sunday: Alright.
Plainview: I'd like you to tell me that you are a false prophet... I'd like you to tell me that you are, and have been, a false prophet... and that God is a superstition.
Eli Sunday: ...but that's a lie... it's a lie, I cannot say it.
[long pause]
Eli Sunday: When can we begin to drill?
Plainview: Right away.
Eli Sunday: How long will it take to bring in the well?
Plainview: Should be very quick.
Eli Sunday: I would like a one hundred thousand dollar signing bonus plus the five that is owed with interest.
Plainview: That's only fair.
Eli Sunday: I am a false prophet and God is a superstition. If that's what you believe, then I will say it.
Plainview: Say it like you mean it.
Eli Sunday: Daniel...
Plainview: Say it like it's your sermon.
Eli Sunday: This is foolish.
[long pause]
Eli Sunday: I am a false prophet! God is a superstition! I am a false prophet! God is a superstition! I am a false prophet! God is a superstition!
[pause]
Eli Sunday: Is that fine?
Plainview: Those areas have been drilled.
Eli Sunday: What?
Plainview: Those areas have been drilled.
Eli Sunday: ...no they haven't...
Plainview: It's called drainage. I own everything around it... so I get everything underneath it.
Eli Sunday: But there are no derricks there. This is the Bandy tract. Do you understand?
Plainview: Do you? I drink your water, Eli. I drink it up. Everyday. I drink the blood of lamb from Bandy's tract.
Plainview: Drainage! Drainage, Eli! Drained dry, you boy! If you have a milkshake and I have a milkshake and I have a straw and my straw reaches across the room and starts to drink your milkshake. I drink your milkshake! I drink it up!
Classic movie, I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Your god's silence speaks loud and clear
there... now that the endings spoiled, no one needs to watch it ^_^
Yeah the last 10 minutes tie everything together..."I drink your milkshake...I drink it up!"

Anyone can go on IMDB and see that
Besides, thats not ALL that happens at the end of the movie.

this is incomplete. It is missing the part in the middle where he says "See *points index finger into the air* thats the straw there it is"

Stay alive no matter what occurs....I will find you!
lol...Magua died
That sooooo was not in the novel which was hell of alot more fucking awesome than the movie . . .
In the novel, Magua wanted to wed the the brown-haired broad instead of simply weanting to kill them as he does in the film. As much as I like Michael Mann, he totally fucked up an awesome story and villain by not reading the freakin book before directing the film.
