This is the story about a Mossad agent Zohan Dvir starred by Adam Sandler, who fakes his death so he can re-emerge in New York City as a hair stylist. He romances his clients by giving them "special services" in the back room. However, he is eventually recognized, and risks losing his newfound life and career. And i must say, it was a great film, it is full of comedy and will give you a good few laughs by the time the credits start to roll.
The ongoing conflict between Israel and Palestine isn't exactly the obvious choice of topic for a comedy, which i feel would probably offend alot of people from those particular cultural backgrounds or people with strong feelings in that area but i felt all the comedy was tasteful (For the most part) and good, and that they made the topic work overall throughout the film.
Adam Sandler does a good job of portraying Zohan, he gives a hilarious performance with an imitaed accent and hilarious hair styling and costume on him. Normally his films can be sub par but i would say this is one of his better works.
This is definately a film for the newgrounds community, as even though the film has political and racial jokes littered throughout it, there are very obvious cock jokes and they left me laughing so i assume they will do the same for you. The film SHOULD leave you laughing for at least half of the 133 Minute running time, that is, if you have a sense of humor at all.
I wouldnt say Don't Mess With The Zohan is a MUST SEE film, but its definately worth a look if you have some extra cash and you want a few laughs out of your day. All he wants to do is make you silky smooth. ;P
I can give this a solid 7/10.

I've decided as i have a year to spare, why not see if i can get a webcomic started, i am hoping to purchase a tablet soon enough, but my idea was to hand draw everything, scan it, and then trace it in photoshop or something.
This is the first box, of the first strip, enjoy, :D

Im starting to watch more and more movies, and if you're anything like me then sometimes you may find it hard to think of a good film to watch, so im going to compile a list of some of the greatest films i've ever seen, i highly recommend all of these.
I'm mostly interested in films that aren't that well known, so it would be pointless in me naming films everyone knows are great, such as scarface or The Godfather. And also, if anyone watches these films i'd like to know what you thought of them, or what you thought of them if you've already seen them. And if you know any films, name them, i'll watch them and see what i think. :)
: Also if anyone says The Dark Knight, its not going on here no matter how many times you say it :P
Tideland
Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind
Desperado
Into The Wild
The Shawshank Redemption
Unforgiven
Close Encounters Of The Third Kind

My new flash is postponed until after Clockday. As My Clockday flash will be taking up ALL of my time in the coming weeks, i left this far too late, so now i have to work my ass off.
On another note, someone give me suggestions for my new piece of art. :D
Its for the 1 frame collab, and my piece is looking uber sexy so far!! :D
Also, just thought i'd add that i fucking despise Basicsunshine and everything she says or does. :D

I was struggling to think of an idea to do for a solo flash, then it hit me, i'm part of the 3 second collab, and i've made 6 parts for it, 6 small parts, i find short random or funny clips alot easier to manage with, so this is what i've decided to do.
I'm going to make a collab of 30 short clips, i will do one 5 second flash every day for a month and then string them all together and see what ive got, its going to take alot of ideas so if anyone has any feel free to throw some my way, they will be much appriciated. Depending on my mood i may do a couple in a day, leading the finishing date closer. But i'll probably take it easy and relax with one per day.
I've got 3 done already, just to start myself off, they're all pretty similar, and i've taken a liking to doing things in the sky. Also i'm actually have to learn Action-Script for this, as i'll need a menu. But Yoshi77777 has offered to give me a hand with this.
Anyway i'll frequently update this with some of the parts going into this, and maybe i can get some feedback, i'll be putting music behind the whole thing, so there's no need to tell me there's no sound in them. Any song ideas will be appriciated too.
I'm going to warn you, these are going to be random as fuck, and there's probably no connection with any of the flashes in this, they will all be completely independant and not connected with the one that precedes or follows it.
