When you're caught up on House, I highly recommend Dexter.

Finished up Banacek Season One last night.

Right now I'm trying to watch GWAR - Rendezvous with Ragnarok. Many years ago vsp suggested that I might enjoy them ... this is one of the few things that he was wrong about. I doubt that I'll get much farther than the 20 minutes that I've watched so far. They're doing an alien sperm rant right now. It's not even vaguely clever. Back to netflix it goes.

We just watched the new Indiana Jones. It was pretty good for a fantasy action. Karen Allen certainly looked aged. Harrison Ford seems timeless. The extras on the DVD had a good interveiw with the the directors, et. al. on the decision to do another sequel. Hard to believe that Ford is 65 years old.

Ironman

I was expecting a mindless action flick, but the dialogue was extremely entertaining. Robert Downey Jr. was a perfect casting choice.

I really enjoyed Ironman. Robert Downey Jr was a lot of fun to watch.

We just watched Hellboy II. Looks like they had fun with that one. It had a cute side to it.

The Brave One, with Jodie Foster.

A lot better than I expected.

Jodie is fun to watch sometimes. I liked her in the Inside Man.

We watched it last night too. It was much better than I expected.

Another cloudy day here, I am plugging in Soylent Green as I type a letter to Obama for a for a position on his panel to address immigration reform.

Indeed, I have had a crush on George Peppard since watching this series when it originally ran on TV.

I'm in a Big Lebowski kinda mood. Maybe that means a rug is in my future.

Over the weekend:

Gone Baby Gone. I have never been a fan of Ben Affleck, and this was his directorial debut. His brother Casey, who I do like, stars.

I thought it was really good. The acting was incredible, especially by the crack-ho mom.

Also saw The Gift. Eh...

And The Manchurian Candidate (the new one)...eh, too. It wasn't bad, I guess.
