Tuesday!
And also, our ritual callout for haiku reviews for next week's big DVD releases!
You should know the rules, but it seems like this has been a bit more difficult than one would assume for you. But don't panic! It's so easy--just write a normal haiku (5/7/5 syllables)
Submit them in the comments or send them to us via twitter @current_movies .
We'll even throw one out there for you.
Seven Pounds
Serious Will Smith,
a constant paradox. Because
Death by Jellyfish.

For "Seven Pounds"
A suicide done
Will Smith disappoints us all
A drama? Not so much.For "Marley and Me"
Dog runs and destroys
Fake tears stream down sad faces
Made me wince. And Flinch. - 3 years ago

From asherp
The stupid dog dies
The book was also not great
I'll admit... I cried.And remember folks, 5-7-5!
Or, 5-8-5 if you're like me and fail.

I came most recently from here:
http://current.com/topics/32967508/movies/default/0.htm
and on my computer it doesn't show anything about Haikus. It looks the same on my mac with both Safari and Firefox, and then on my PC with Firefox as well.
I see in the sidebar stuff about the three word review, which I'm not writing.
And a thing to add content with the tag "movie" which I'm not doing.
And a thing to upload a webcam, which I'm not doing.And nothing for Haikus. It's the haikus I love, because it's like word collage.
Almost anything
can be a haiku, when you
put your mind to italternatively:

People get on my case when it comes to haiku, saying that Smile isn't two syllables.
I count the dipthong as being a distinct and seperate sylable.
It's not "smil" it's "SMIE-yul"
