    "Bedknobs and Broomsticks" Always a delight though the new addidtions with dialogue dubbed by other is glaring and distracting.

    This may be my least favorite movie of the series but I think it's because I get so sad watching it.

    DD was actually watching it. And she finally finished it. Last time, she fell asleep (as did I). I was watching the hockey game. Maybe I should have watched NBC

    Well it was just last week, yet I can't even remember what I had to eat last night.

    Much better seeing it this time than when it was newer on dvd. I have to say though as good Lemon and Matthau's other films together were, I liked them much better in this film. As funny as they are fighting, I liked how they got along a little better in this one. They were more like close friends than friends who got on each others nerves, and something about that I found just as pleasant to watch. And Dyan Cannon was great too.

    Hadn't watched this in years, and just wanted to see it again. It's too bad that another director could have used the same screenplay and made a much tauter film. Fincher is too willing to sacrifice substance for atmosphere. I hate that the crucial action sequences are impossible to follow, and that the "religion" aspect of the film is handled in such a cartoon-like fashion. Still, a fun movie and a really nice stark contrast to its predecessor.

    Christmas Day
    "Transformers"
    Nephews' new DVD
    Ham sandwich, vegetables, cookies, assorted other munchies

    What a surprising treat! I really enjoyed this movie! Still, I realized for the first time ever about a movie, "This is flawed by design." The producers proved that they could have made a GREAT kids' movie, or a GREAT adolescent movie, or a GREAT serious sci-fi film. Instead, they went for "appeal to all." So we get a decent drama that stops to make pee jokes (for the kids) and makes cartoon characters of the parents (for the adolescents). And several scenes are way too talky and/or clumsily comedic. It could have chosen an audience and been an awesome "A" movie. Instead, it dilutes itself for broader appeal but still ends up with a "B." It was a great choice for our 8- to 57-year-old crowd.

    "Live Free or Die Hard"
    Nephews' new DVD
    More grazing from the Christmas buffet

    Entirely predictable, thoroughly improbable, and totally enjoyable.

    Tonight
    "Hairspray"
    Rented the DVD
    Chardonnay

    Man, what a disappointment. This version lacked both the bite and the sweetness of the original film. The plot wasn't compelling, the musical numbers had little punch, and Travolta in a fat suit was just bland. Wish I would have rented something else. Semi-redeeming factor (for straight guys): Michelle Pfiefer is HOT.

    I was playing the addictive MiniClip Snow Game my wonderful SP LacyBelle bashed me with, and the little one wandered in and asked nicely if she could try her new movie on the computer. I said, "Sure!"

    Like most films I don't know or may have partial interest in for whatever reason, it felt like I was just sitting there not knowing what the heck this is, but they do (I mean I've seen pictures, posters, heard of it, but that was it). But before I knew it, a short while later, I was already following along and appreciating the story. The slugs were as cute as they were hilarious. I only got to watch it to the point where Roddy & Rita became even better friends when he gave her the real ruby he promised her, Rita realizes Roddy is really alone, then he tries to hide it when the rat that flushed him comes up to his room. And that's when we had to stop the movie, as my friend came into the room and told her kids it was time to go.

    Goofball antics. Had it's funny moments.
    Not great but not bad either. Good for some chuckles.



    Live Free Die Hard
    DVD
    at home

    Loved it! Lots of action throughout the whole movie. Didn't think Brucie still had it in him, but he didn't disappoint. I think I liked it better than the last couple of Die Hard movies.

    The kids and I did a marathon of all 3 in one day. I have to admit by the time Frodo sailed off into the sunset I was happy to see him go. I did get a heck of a lot of needlepoint done while watching.

    Was a great pajama day for us. Pirates marathon is next on our list. What else is vacation time for?

It could have used a new script. The idea was certainly interesting but I ended up being bored much of the time, even if the pictures were pretty and ended up feeling like it was a pretentious load of crap.
    I suppose that I should be greatful that someone tried something different but it is sad that it had to be so different that it didn't really work. Hugh Jackmand (whom I have not seen hardly anything of) was excellent, even if I didn't care for the person he was portraying.

    Just what the name says...super bad! As in awful! Very juvenile teenage boy humor. DH made me! Was convinced it would get better...there had to be SOMETHING good about it. Anything?


    The Golden Compass
    Theater
    left-over Christmas chocolate smuggled in in pocket of sweatshirt

    I really liked it! So did DH. Fantasy, about a compass that is sort of a truth-o-meter given to a girl who is foretold to come. (Does that make sense?)

    My roomate and I watched this movie expecting the worst but if you can look past the horrible writing, bad acting, and senseless plot, it wasn't actually that bad. I liked it lol...

    If I had seen this movie in 2007 it would have been my favorite movie of the year. I'd for sure put it in my top 10 of all time.

    I loved the story, the characters, the quirky soundtrack and the dialog. I will be going to see this again and its one I'll be buying when it comes out on DVD. Great little movie!
