No, but strangely enough, it was the original title of The Legend of Bagger Vance.

Ahahaha!

Maybe this will help make that feeling go away, Frank?

Well it was frelling hilarious, I'll say that (though sadly either it doesn't like Macs, mine's too old, or I've never configured this thing right to get decent vids and such, cause it was wicked skippy even after I let it get the whole way through once). Not lacking in any testosterone, but the funk is of a completely different type.

It may just be a RAM shortage, as it played smoothly on my work Mac but is likewise skippy here on the laptop.

I had to stop and have a laughing fit midway through my first viewing when the spinning decapitated head popped up in the center panel.

I just saw Harry Potter 5 in IMAX this afternoon. It's the first time I've seen a theatrical film (not made for IMAX) in that format, and it was better than I thought it'd be. I'd heard stories about other films, such as the LotR movies, shown on the bigger screen and being fuzzy in the corners, etc., but this movie had no such problems. The 3D part at the end (starting with the kids on thestrals, heading for the Ministry, through to Harry packing for the summer) was quite cool, especially the chase through the Hall of Prophecy and the Dumbledore vs. Voldemort fight at the end (all those glass fragments look deadly when they're flying through the air).

I came home from my trip and Dennis had set aside a movie from his queue for me to watch, George and the Dragon. He said, "it's got James Purefoy, Michael Clarke Duncan, Patrick Swayze and Val Kilmer."

I thought, a cast like that and I never heard of it, "does it suck?"

He shook his head, laughing, "oh man it sucks so bad."

Still James Purefoy, swoony swoony and dragons, eh? How bad can it be?

Oh lordy. It Is Bad. I think they've got a Patrick Swayze bot. And for some reason James Purefoy isn't hot anymore. I wish he'd wash his face. But I can't turn it off.

Laga, George and the Dragon was/is one of those "so-bad-you-can't-look-away" movies I've seen on Sci-Fi. They just have a twisted special place in my heart. The truly sad part is that there is a discussion thread on IMDB where people were desperately trying to get copies.

I'm pretty sure I've seen Season 1 at least 8 or 9 times now.

I've seen it at least half that many times, and two of them were due directly to your influence. It's a fucking brilliant show.

Saw "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead." Oh my god, it was so brilliant. It was the best movie I have seen in a very long time. I love it like a lot.

Also saw "Say Anything," which has so much more resonance for me now than it did when I was a teenager, and the Emma Thompson version of "Sense and Sensibility," which was just lovely.

"The Mummy" definitely stands up to rewatch--it really was beautifully shot, for all that it was an action/horror flick. Also saw the 1995 version of "Sabrina," which was surprisingly lovely; I think I enjoy it more on a fundamental level than I do the 1955 version, though the Hepburn version will always hold a strong place in my heart, because it was my mother's favorite film.

And everyone who said "2046" was incomprehensible was entirely correct, but damn it was pretty, and the cinematography was totally worth not knowing what the hell was going on.

Hello, BigDuluth!

the 1995 version of "Sabrina," which was surprisingly lovely; I think I enjoy it more on a fundamental level than I do the 1955 version,

JZ would agree with you.

You should definitely check out some other Wong Kar Wei, especially Chungking Express.
