30 Day Movie Challenge - Day 23-26

Feb 10, 2011 13:22

Yesterday was our official lab christening or whatever. We toasted the rich guy who gave us all the money for the new floor. I had about three sips of wine and champagne and a ton of cheese before I started to feel not so hot. Our lab had happy hour plans, though--to welcome the new members--so I went out with them and sipped a diet soda for a ( Read more... )

Favorite character: hm, no idea. Inspector Clouseau? (The real one, not Steve Martin) James Bond? There are lots of characters I really like, some only in one movie and some in several. Some aren't even the main characters, like most of the secondary knights in King Arthur or Alan Rickman's character Ed in January Man.

Favorite documentary: either that one or Who Killed the Electric Car?

A movie no one would expect you to love: Love, Actually. It's a romantic comedy, after all, and I'm not known for my fondness for that genre, though I like more of them than I usually admit. :)

Movie that is a guilty pleasure: The Replacements. A sports comedy with Keanu Reeves? Really? But it's way too much fun.

Who Killed the Electric Car? was a good one, too.

I only just saw The Replacements last year. All I kept from that was Rhys Ifans saying "Wiry!" in his crazy accent.

And now you know why I still walk around saying "I'm wiry!" all the time. :)

Oh God, that sounds awful. I hope the illness leaves as quickly as it came on ( ... )

If you get a chance, see Aliens after that, you can stop. The others are not so good as to be necessary watches.

Ugh, I loathed The Crow: City of Angels, but mostly, I think, because it was trying to connect to the previous movie. Can't hold a candle to the bullshit that was The Crow: Wicked Prayer, which starred, I shit thee not, Edward Furlong, David Boreanaz, Macy Gray, and Dennis Hopper. (Oh and Tara Reid.) What a piece of shit that was.

City of Angels is a bad movie, but I still enjoy the atmosphere of it and there were a couple of scenes I really thought were cool (of course it's been over ten years since I've seen it).

HA! I was working at the video store when Wicked Prayer was released and I had to laugh when I saw Boreanez and Reid were in it. Ugh, I didn't noticed Macy Gray was in it as well though. At least it had Dennis Hopper, who was one of my favorite actors. I'll have to see that hot mess sometime, too.

Oh no, I hope you feel better soon.

What is involved with attending a PhD defense? Is it held in a coliseum or Thunderdome? Does she have to fight with robots?

Everyone seems to think that a PhD defense is, like, a war. It's a struggle, sure, but no one has to lose any blood over it. Sleep, absolutely.
