Just saw this movie yesterday about a Marine's experience of the Gulf War. It was an excellent movie, better than I anticipated, and very eye-openning (in more ways than one, it's rated R, don't let the kiddies watch). The performances were outstanding, and the vision of  burning Kuwaiti oilfields at night were awesome ( Read more... )

Went out last Friday with SCA friends to eat dinner at Moe's and watch Zombieland. I'm not normally a horror flick chick, but this was a hoot! I was rolling with laughter before the opening credits had finished.  If you appreciate dark humor, go watch it!

Last night I realized who was playing the wife of Bruce Willis in this movie. It was the woman who played Kaylee in Firefly and Serenity. I didn't recognize her without her hair tousled and a smudge of dirt on her cheek. : )

Watched this movie starring Bruce Willis today, and liked it very much. An interesting concept (people use robots in place of their own bodies, living vicariously through them, and losing touch with real human interactions), and a good mystery and fun action. A little humor to liven it up a bit. Well done, I recommend this movie ( Read more... )

I'm a little surprised I could get on the internet tonight. There's a problem with my phone line. I'm not getting a dial-tone, and my brother called my cell-phone today after failing to get through to me on my land-line. I've called verizon, and hopefully this will be taken care of tomorrow ( Read more... )

I got sucked into the Twilight universe. I have read (and re-read) the books the last two months. Two days ago, I bought the movie when it came out on DVD, and saw it for the first time. It was not as good as it could have been. The potential was there, but it had a rough-around-the-edges look to it, unpolished. The director declined to make the ( Read more... )

OK, so I made it to the event yesterday a little late (1:30pm), but at least I got some sleep after getting to bed about 4am. I had some nice conversations, bought some whole nutmeg and a grater from plumettycat (just grated some on top of hot milk with a dash of brandy, and it was as good as I thought it would be!), learned to finger-loop braid cord from ( Read more... )

I went to see this last night. Will Smith did an interesting portrayal of someone dealing with depression, and the title of the movie is literal if you understand the reference. I don't want to spoil the movie for people, so I won't say more about the plot. A real tear-jerker, not something to see if you want to have your spirits raised. Quite a ( Read more... )

For those of you who have not yet seen it...Go watch the movie "Stardust" on the big screen while it is still in theaters. FABULOUS movie!!! A beautiful fairy tale with wonderful acting and cast (including Robert DeNiro, Michelle Pfiefer, Peter O'Toole and Rupert Everrett), and it is absolutely hilarious.  Aileen and I came out of the movie feeling ( Read more... )
