Lazy weekend
I didn't really do much this weekend. I did manage to watch 3 movies (2 of which had been sitting in the Tivo queue for a while:
The Last Mimsy
Not bad, not great - neat effects, topical message. I'm glad I didn't pay to see it in the theater.
Fido
Was awesome! It was witty in a really creepy sort of way, juxtaposing a 50's style "Utopia" with a zombie epidemic. I would definitely watch it again :-) Kudos to Billy Connelly for emoting so much under the zombie makeup & without the benefit of dialog.
Across the Universe
I found well crafted and entertaining. Mind you, I'm a sucker for a visual feast and like most Beatles tunes so it already had a lot going for it in my book.
I also made Irish Car Bomb cupcakes (yup, just like th drink - a Guiness chocolate cupcake with Irish Whiskey & Bailey's Irish Cream frosting) for our potluck /business meeting. They went over really well - I'll definitely make them again.
