This really made me think of a further twisted Romeo and Juliet. The most interesting parts are being able to move between the living world and the dead world, how the living world was greys and the dead world was all colors, and the way the animated characters walked. I thought the music was lousy. I dunno, maybe kids would like it better than ( Read more... )

It was 79F when I went out and there was just a bit of a breeze. Last night I'd planned to read another old paper, but then changed my mind and watched a DVD. I should really get these back to Netflix. I got to bed at 5:30pm and finished the story I had so much trouble with, then tried the next but I was too sleepy. I set the alarm for 2pm, but ( Read more... )

Last night I watched Modern Family and then started watching a DVD. I stopped for the 11pm news and then finished the DVD. I read Tuesday's paper and got to bed to read at 2:30am. I read until 5am but was still sleepy when I got up to use the bathroom at 10:30am so I just turned the alarm off. I woke up at 2:15pm ( Read more... )

When this arrived, I was surprised -- I have a professional tape of it -- but I figured I'd watch the DVD anyway ( Read more... )

Last night I watched a DVD and then read the paper, getting to bed to read at 1:30pm. I finished at 5am, but came out to get the paper and sit with Spirit who seemed lonely. We watched a Three's Company; boy, is that outdated. I set the alarm at 1pm and went to sleep at 5am. I don't remember turning the alarm off, but it was off when I looked ( Read more... )

This play, and almost all the words, were from Thomas Middleton's 1606 play. A much better description than Netflix's packet is:

From Denver Public Library site: Timeless themes of moral corruption and revenge are played out on a stage of gritty, punk futurism and anarchic violence.In a post-apocalyptic Liverpool of the future, a wronged man ( Read more... )

Nicholas Cage is the narrating protagonist of this story about dealing guns. The packet has Ethan Hawke as second, but he's only in five minutes of the first hour and maybe seven minutes in the second hour. He must have gotten that as a bribe to be in the show.

The show starts with "For What It's Worth" but not by Buffalo Springfield. This is ( Read more... )

I had to take a nap last night and got up when my phone alarm went off at 9:30pm. I figured I could watch a two-hour DVD and read the paper before midnight, so I was clearly out of whack with time. I did watch the DVD, but set the VCR to record the news and then read the paper, going to bed to read at 3:30am. I stopped at 4:30am and set the ( Read more... )

This was a very good movie. Brandon (Matthew McConaughey) planned to be a big-deal quarterback but he damaged his leg badly on the day the scouts were in the bleachers and they all left. He does a lot of little jobs and then his boss finds out Brandon can forecast sports. He does it just as a hobby until Walter (Al Pacino), who owns a popular ( Read more... )
