Woody Allens I'm Meh about:

Zelig
Alice
Radio Days
The Purple Rose of Cairo
Love and Death
Sleeper


Woody Allen I Hate:

Shadows and Fog

For me, swap out Radio Days for Mighty Aphrodite and were good. My favorite part of Love and Death is the use throughout the film of Prokofiev's Lt. Kije Suite.

The music is always one of my favorite things about Woody Allen films, much humor, much irony in it. In Bullets Over Broadwa, it never fails to have me on the floor in , LMAO when
Spoiler:
Chaz Palmieri guns down anyone at the Hudson and the soundtrack is playing "Up a Lazy River"

I always love the music Allen uses as well. Manhattan shines with it and Hannah....has one of the most wonderful sountracks ever.

Interiors is awesome. Deconstructing Harry is along the same vein, but without the necessity for Prozac.


Don't be put off by the pill-taking, though. Interiors is the superiors.

I watched Monster House today. I'm really kinda meh about it. It started out fun and then got kinda corny in the last third of the film.
Interesting idea, though.
I'm thinking it would have been a cooler film had it been a live action sfx fest.

Legends of the Fall today. It was big, sprawling, nice James Horner score and Anthony Hopkins. A little long, but the scenary was gorgeous.

Okay, I just watched High School Musical.




I liked it.
:)


Even though it was like a Mormon Grease, sanitized and completely rated G, I thought it was fun.
The acting was so so and the story was all too familiar, but I thought it was good.

I don't know why Disney keeps giving Kenny Ortega projects after Newsies and Hocus Pocus, but I'll cut him some slack with HSM.

I can see why kids went nutty over it last year.

Sarcasm meters on:
I can't wait for High School Musical 2 and 3.
The name of High School Musical 3 is Haunted High School Musical, btw. lol!
:D

Great movie. The score is wonderful. I listen to it all the time.

Julia Ormond - Whatever happend to her.

CoasterMatt 02-10-2007 09:00 PM

I watched "GWAR: Live From Antarctica"

I saw something about Julia Ormond a while ago. She married some activist guy and apparently has been spending a lot of time working on human trafficing issues. My sense was that she was more focused on that than acting.

(Though it may be that roles stopped coming so she shifted.)
