Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

And bon, you know I threw Murphy in there for you, because he's just creepy.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

It's some sci-fi-y thing where time is currency or some shit, but I'm not sure I care.

Seriously? They were in a meeting, some guy said "Can we hurry this up people, time is money", and they decided to make a movie on that? What'll be next, do you think?

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

You had me at Bomer. Timberlake is gravy. Mixed feelings about Cillian. Slightly more unpleasant mixed feelings about Kartheiser.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

And bon, you know I threw Murphy in there for you, because he's just creepy.

Yummers!

But seriously, this is one short-ass cast.

But the screen is so big!

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

sadly, billytea, that's probably *exactly* how it happened.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I really wish I were recording Dylan's commentary track for Nightmare Before Christmas - we're on the train and he's watching it on my iPad and he has questions or comments on just about everything that's happening.

Why is Jack Skellington sad? Oh look a flying dog! Where is the dog going? Oh, now Jack Skellington is mad. Hey that Sally is just like the one on your shirt! Why does that man's head turn around?

Nightmare is now officially Dylan's favorite movie, which would make me extremely proud except he says that about every movIe he's ever seen, so. Still, he didn't ask me to turn it off when the Oogie Boogie bits started - I was a little worried those scenes would be too scary.

Art Crawl!!!

The woman who made the original version of The Killing has apparently made a dark and intense movie about vaulting.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

So Beau and I saw Ides of March.

It is official: Beau hates Ryan Gosling. He believe the man cannot act at all. Beau also did not like Evan Rachel Wood. He dug Hoffman, Clooney, Giamatti, but didn't really like anyone else.

I am not sure what I was expecting with IOM, but I guess I was expecting a political thriller and that's not the movie I got. It reminds me a bit about my expectations of the virus movie and what I experienced seeing it.

IOM feels smaller in scope than what I expected and I didn't buy some of the character's reactions. For example, if you are experienced in national campaigns, you would be a bit savvy about various dynamics. You certainly would be a lot more savvy than a certain character in this movie. The naïvete burned.

One thing that really pissed me off was Evan Rachel Wood's character. For the love of Athena, can we please not have abortion punishment any more? Please? Pretty please? I was counting down how long before the character would "suffer the consequences" and of course I was not disappointed.

My recommendation is, this is not a must-see movie (at least not in theaters). Wait for the rental, or when it comes to tv. I'm glad we got out of the house, but I kinda wished we had gone to see Rocky Horror instead.
