But, but, Gambit!
Yeah, I know, it's a bad movie.
You know, I just... I woke up, and I looked in the mirror, and I thought, hey, what's with all the sin? I need to change. I'm... I'm dirty. I'm, I'm bad with the... sex and the envy and that, that loud music us kids listen to nowadays.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Because books.
I watched Jonah Hex for ten minutes of Jeffrey Dean Morgan, so I get it. And it actually ended up being a fairly fun movie.

I enjoyed Jonah Hex. The dream-type sequences were fascinating. But then, I watch a lot of movies at the dollar theater that I wouldn't otherwise watch. If it's an odd sci-fi/fantasy-ish move, Hubby and I are there at the dollar movie.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
But, but, Gambit!
Oh yeah, I liked Gambit too. But oy! I am the first to admit I don't really know the X-Men canon, but they seemed to just be changing stuff willy nilly.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
We watched Wolverine: Origins last night. I was anticipating a bad movie, but I really had no idea how bad it was?
That movie should have been called We Took a Whole Bunch of Marvel Characters and Changed Nearly Everything About Them. It's an affront to both Marvel continuity, which is annoying, and the X-Men MOVIE continuity, which is worse.
Another alternate title is Hugh Jackman Roars a Lot, Sometimes Naked, Often Shirtless.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Happy birthday, Anne!

If they'd cut the rest of the movie out and just kept these parts it would be a lot better.

My tummy and head are very unhappy. Stupid alcohol.
OTOH, while drunk I picked up some girl and apparently invited her home with me. She was all ready to come, until my friend I was with explained to me that I had invited her home (which I truly don't remember) and I was like 'Oh, I don't think that's a good idea'. Oy. But still! She was willing!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Huh. The Winter Strom Watch has been upgraded to a Blizzard Watch: [link]
The National Weather Service has issued a Blizzard Watch for the entire Chicago area effective Tuesday afternoon through Wednesday. Snowfall totals in excess of 12 inches coupled with winds of 25 to 40 mph will make long distance travel extremely dangerous if not impossible. This storms main impact is still 48 hours away, and an exact storm track is yet to be determined. However, a majority of forecast model guidance suggests the heaviest snow should fall over northern Illinois and northern Indiana. 12" to 18" totals may be common with locally higher amounts of 20"+ possible.
Oh well - on the bright side, there's only 1 month of meteorological winter left to go.

Men's final: I would like Murray better if he were less disappointing.
