GC is the final authority on Knighthoods.

The Queen of England herself considers GC to be a top advisor, and "too good" to be a knight himself.

I'm going to find myself with some time tomorrow. Do I see The DaVinci Code or Thank you for smoking.

And can anyone talk me out of getting Netflix again?

See Thank You for Smoking.

Neither one is a particularly strong movie but Thank You For Smoking is by far the better of the two.

Alas, that seems to have been the problem with the Director's Cut of Kingdom of Heaven, which I had been soooo looking forward to. The theatrical version seemed choppy, and was infamous for its Director (Ridley Scott) being very unhappy with the studio version that was released.

The expanded cut just released on DVD is indeed a lot better, but the movie just fails to gel ... and it's all because of Orlando Bloom. Or rather, his character, Balian, and the fact that he is both written and played so wanly, so understated, and so low key that Barry White cannot hit that note ... the movie just never sparks.

It's a fascinating look at a pivot point in The Crusades, expertly mounted. But it revolves around a character who never generates much interest or momentum. Too bad.

Hottie is not enough.

As much as I love Mel Brooks and Nathan Lane, I barely got through 'The Producers: The Musical' movie. It was horrible. The play was good (one of my faves), but the director of this film didn't know how to translate this story to film. She even had the original to work from, but it didn't work. Nathan Lane is hysterical in places, but not enough to save the film. If you do see it, watch the bit at end of the credits. In fact, the couple of songs during the credits are pretty good. The outtakes on the DVD made me laugh harder than the film itself did.

See An Inconvenient Truth.

I'd see a whole movie revolving around the Leper King. Edward Norton is effective even if you never see his face.

I'd go see it if I wasn't in such a blah mood lately. I've been looking for escapist type movies to distract me. I may have to wait for this one until DVD. I hear it's awesome, though.

I watched "Guess Who's Comming to Dinner" last night. I saw the middle portioon while I was waiting for Chris' plane to land and just had to see the entire thing again. I love Kate!

I had to look up Katherine Houghton who played the daughter in the film. She was Katherine Hepburn's niece in reality. She hasn't had much of a film presence through the years but she was "Mrs. Spaulding" in Kinsey. If only I could remember who Mrs. Spaulding was.
