Zodiac turns 10 on this very day – March 2nd Â
ZODIAC!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ever since I saw the movie, I have not ever shut up about it.  You should know this.  I am still working on an street team (that no one asked me to be a part of… mainly cause I invented this street team) to try and get Zodiac a retroactive Oscar for Best Picture of the 21st century (juss a reminder – one of the most critically loved movies of this century got ZERO Academy Award nominations)
anywho, I keep tweeting about my love for all things Zodiac, but I never really have elaborated why I love it.  so here ye go – on things about the movie Zodiac that makes me love it endlessly…
–
mustard yellows and browns abound
–
all the real life people’s names are SO amazing sounding that they actually sound fake – David Toschi, Jack Mulanax, Ken Narlow, Sherwood Morrill, Duffy Jennings, and mos especially Melvin Belli… a lawyer who was once on Star Trek!!
–
Donovan’s ‘Hurdy Gurdy Man’ is now the most rockinest & creepiest anthem ever
–
and Donovan’s daughter Ione Skye was in the movie too!
–
Ruffalo’s hair
–
it inspired me to read not one, but TWO books!
–
when I was in the Napa and San Fran, I made sure to make pit stops at a couple of the murder sites.  WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME THAT I WANT TO VISIT THE SITES OF MURDERS CAUSE I LEARNED ABOUT THEM IN A MOVIE!??!
–
the more Jake Gyllenhaal &Â John Carroll Lynch movies together, the better. Â They’re both unsettling awesome actors with screen presences for daze! Â Zodiac was their 3rd pairing. Â The others – 2002’s The Good Girl, and 2001’s The Bubble Boy
–
the little touches, like Pong!
the blue drinks!
and the squirrels, and dildo in Arthur Leigh Allen’s trailer!
–
ever since the movie has been released, far more people have claimed that the Zodiac was their father (including Time Werespanko), and some claim the Zodiac was even a Presidential candidate!
–
I love this movie so much that when I saw Jimmi Simpson (who was in the movie for all of like 5 minutes at the end) smoking a cigarette on the street in New York, I went up to him, without remembering his name, and said, ‘I just wanted to let you know that you were AMAZING in Zodiac… and everything else you’ve ever been in!’ Â He said ‘thanks‘Â
–
the Zodiac has never been caught, and so the mystery endures, and as the years pass, the movie only gets more awesomer
