yeah, that was a classic moment. "Learn to play games from me, not how to parent"

I felt bad with that scene. I actually highly doubt the kid needed help wiping his butt - he just missed his father, who had been devoting so much of his time toward Donkey Kong. I think that moment was a revelation for Weibe, since he seemed to pay more attention to his kids and wife following that incident.

I'm trying to decide what film to watch tonight. I have a stack on the coffee table.

I just know that Gwendoline (a.k.a. Perils of Gwendoline in the Land of the Yik Yak) is in that stack. Go for it!

Who? What?

Suspicion
Belle de Jour
8 1/2
The Go-Between
Or, something from the Almodovar box set.

Don't forget Lawrence of Arabia and Bonnie and Clyde (both on the DVD in HD)

A movie sounds like an awesome idea. I need some serious sofa snuggle time. It's so nice having some quiet time away from worry! :)

We've yet to unwrap "Harry Potter: OOTP" from Christmas yet. I'm thinking this would be a good time to do so. I'd like to see the ending without the 3D "finale" we saw at the IMAX. I thought it was so overdone and reminded me of the final battle in the last "Matrix" film.

I saw Across the Universe at CoasterMatt's.
My reaction was... meh.

This weekend

The Laughing Policeman - Perhaps most misleading title ever. Gritty 1973 police drama starring a thoroughly dour Walter Matthau. Lots of nice street scenery of the San Francisco location but otherwise not a very interesting movie.

A Night at the Museum - Surprisingly not horrible. I don't ever need to see it again but it is harmless enough. Mizuo Peck, who played Sacajawea, is the hotness.

Double Indemnity - Brilliant as always.

The Bank Job - Wouldn't mind knowing more about which parts are true and which parts are poetic license. It's not going to set the world on fire and will be forgotten in a couple years but I enjoyed most of it.
