I'll ask her if she's on the market and interested. For a small fee I can tell you what time her classes start

The Elephant Man. Sort of freaked me out for the rest of the night.

I concur with this. I found it to be a tad long at times but overall pretty good.

Also recently seen,

Rent. Also too long IMO. I have seen better musicals.

When a Stranger Calls. The original was better.

Crash. Excellent movie. Says alot about racial boundries.

Brokeback Mountain. I think my daughter and myself are the only ones who liked this film. I dunno.

Hustle & Flow. Hated it. I don't see what the hype was about.

Underworld: Evolution. Umm. Ok. I went along with what he wanted to see. The choices were limited and I was a good sport I think.

As far as movies at home, I can't recall half the things we see, I live with movie whores.

Ha! I'd rather you give me her number and let me find out when her classes are for myself.

Last night I watched Midnight Cowboy and then Altered States. Both were great. Midnight Cowboy was a widespread film way ahead of its time in the late sixties and Altered States had some fantastic visual components to the movie (although the ending seemed kinda like a cop-out and out of character).

Altered States should only be viewed after dropping a tab of acid...then the ending will make perfect sense.

I just saw Rent for the first time.

It was everything I thought it would be and more! The songs! The characters! The story!

Awesome.



It confirmed for me once again that I hate musicals (except for Grease, which I was practically raised on).

****SPOILERS****


DONT LOOK IF YOU HAVEN"T SEEN IT...





I meant more like his sudden love for her after years of just her being more of an item of comfort, and his sudden love for her and then hugging/fade to black just seems like to easy of a way to end it. I get his whole reasoning for seeing the dark reality of truth-less, cold, cruel existence and not wanting to go down that path, but... I guess maybe I just don't like it when movies that throw an unneeded "I love you" at the end, lol. Leaves a funny taste in my mouth from an otherwise flawless meal.

And for you guys, not that I need to tell you, but Scarlett Johansson is HOT. Oh, the Elvis look-alike isn't so bad either.

I hated this movie. My wife told me it was a Woody Allen thriller. It wasn't even close to that. She kept hitting me any time I started laughing out loud at parts that were not intended to be funny. Scarlett is hot, but she has problems in movies with a lot of dialogue. We saw The Producers at a place that serves you dinner while you watch the movie. That's probably the best way to watch it. Lots of gayness but it was pretty good for the most part. We Netflixed The Constant Gardner and Red Eye the other day. CG was not what I expected and Red Eye was OK.
