The Constant Gardener. Either we had too much wine with dinner or were just too tired but it seemed hard to follow and a bit confusing.

The Fog of War.

Robert S. Macnamara is interviewed with such finesse that he begin to talk about himself in the third person (or maybe that's normal for him...) Excellent movie. Please note that it was released in May of 2001, before the world changed. I swear, some of the segments we pure Donald Rumsfeld. If you looked away from the screen and just listened to the dialog, you couldn't tell the difference in some places. Example: "Never answer the question. When asked, answer the question you wish was asked." Gawd. I got heebiejeebie chills.

Watched The Green Street Hooligans last night, what a cool friggin movie! Reminded me of Snatch mixed with Fight Club. Had a great soundtrack also.

The wine actually made it less so.

It was worse than the book.

Yes, I know I'm supposed to be all excited about this movie because it's an artistic classic yadda, yadda, yadda. It was long, boring, and confusing. I did like some of the visual imagery, but that wasn't enough to sustain my attention for over three hours.

The Devil Wears Pradha.
The Pirates of the Carribean. ( of which I didn't like so much, Or hated her for chaining him to the mast or leaving it a cliff hanger)
Pride and Prejudice which I absolutly loved because it was a smart love story.

I was really looking forward to part II of Pirates of the Caribbean, but was disappointed. I even fell asleep 2/3 of the way through.

The Devil Wears Prada was better than expected--loved Meryl Streep and Stanley Tucci, although he was not quite the deliciously evil queen that he could've been.

Yes Meryl was wonderful and Stanley. IRonically, You are the second person to comment on him in that way tonight! My curiosity is piqued!

I love Stanley Tucci. Have you seen Big Night? One of my favorite Tucci flicks, and Tony Shalhoub was great, too. They seem like they could really be brothers.

I watched "What the Bleep" last night. That was easily the dumbest movie I have seen in a while.

J.Z. Knight channels Ramtha who explains Quantum Physics.

NOT.
