Miscellaneous Movie Musings

I'll be happy to give Marie Antoinette an audition soon, as i've liked Sophia Coppolla's work so far, a lot.

Stranger Than Fiction really was BJM and Adaptation Lite, wasn't it? I had a fine time with it just the same.

Dreamgirls was a knockout punch for me, but I saw it in a crowded theater packed with people who were primed for the experience and clearly relished it, cheering long and loud after many of the numbers. It was an electric experience, and one that won't be duplicated by home viewing, though I certainly plan to buy this particular musical.

Were these movies on your own personal video screen, or were they of the "crane your neck to see a tiny monitor at the end of the cabin" type?

Saw Shooter today just to get out of the house for a while. Felt like it was 1986 with Stallone and Arnie at their crappy action movie peaks. Except you get to fantasize it is

Spoiler:

being dealt with in the end.

Complete crap. Save your money.

Tomorrow is the first day since I started the new job where it would probably be best for me to stay a few extra hours at the end of the day but my Meet the Robinsons screening is tomorrow night so I'll be doing that instead.

They were on my own, personal, crappy, back of the seat, square video screen.
