Hey! This is what happens when I decide against reading this thread. Gotta read the rest and see what else people are saying about me...;)

That was 15 bucks, not 50, dearie :p

Just think "American Movie", that was a pretty good analogy. It's all about the quirky characters, the movie itself, while it has a story, is really about nothing.

Yes, as long as you share. And okay, but not til after I am.

I wanted to see Bad Education. But I got outvoted (we were supposed to see Closer again, but it's only on one screen). Also.....Million Dollar Baby was sold out, so we ended up at In Good Company.

I want me a Dennis Quade-sicle or a Topher Pop right about now. They were sooooo good in this movie. I really loved it. :sigh: Twas a good evening.

We watched Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind tonight. Charlie Kaufman is a brilliant writer! I love how he plays with concepts of reality and time. He always strikes me as a 1960's science fiction writer who just happens to write for contemporary society. Its like, the future is now. Anyways, I loved the writing here as much as I did in Adaptation and Being John......

Kate Winslet was absolutely wonderful and Jim Carrey bugged me even less than he did in the Truman Show. There was only ONE moment where he went into overacting comedy mode, and it was a short segment.

I'm sure I'd have more to say if I wasn't feeling so icky.


Oh, and last night, I "got" Claire's sig about doggie farts while seeing A Very Long Engagement. Chris summed up my feelings pretty well above. I loved it. There was another line in the film that I was excited about remembering, but of course don't remember at all. It's one of those "that would make a good sig line" moments that make you feel like a geek.

Tonight's film line was "I'm making a birdhouse here!" :)

I'm trying to understand this whole Clive Owen thing.

I saw King Arthur and he was like a cracker in that one- tasteless and salty. One of the worst performances I've seen in a long time. The extra's had more personality.

Now I haven't seen Closer - so what's the big deal? I don't think I could watch another performance by him after that piece of Shhhh...

He's anything but wooden in Closer. I haven't seen King Arthur, so I can't speak for that performance. But he really stole the show in his scenes in Closer. His eyes....voice. He really blew me away. I went for Jude, came out a Clive fan.
