Scott Pilgrim

Best sleeper of the year!  LOVED this movie!  Funny, witty, creative, different.  Loved it!  All thumbs up, take the kids too.  It has references to all kinds of bad stuff, but other than a couple of guys making out, nothing too bad.  This movie has a running theme.  You either get it or you don’t.  If you don’t, it might… (more…)

Heidi’s not-so-unexpected sex tape

A while back I did a little thingy about Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt.  He especially struck me as the most desperate attention seeking media whore I had ever seen in my life.  It was pathetic.  I predicted the sex tape would appear within two years.  Oddly enough, that post was almost one year ago to this day.  Wanna guess… (more…)

The Other Guys

Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg?  Someone thought this was a good idea.  Kinda crazy given their combined line-up: Think about that.  With that they decided these two needed to make a cop flick.  OK with that so far?  I really am not going to go too far into this one, the plot is absolutely meaningless and at times inane.  However,… (more…)

Despicable Me

I liked this one.  I really did.  Some movies move well from child to adult, this is not one of those.  This is purely child stuff.  It’s light-hearted, pleasant, fun.  It’s creative, and a little witty.  It builds a plot that is believable, and the characters are deeper than face value.  I liked it.  Two thumbs up.

Inception

Wow, talk about a busy flick.  First of all, this is sorta The Matrixlite.  I hated The Matrix.  Not so much because Keanu Reeves is the worst major actor of all time, but because computers became so powerful they over-ran mankind and put the entire race, that’s billions of people, into a permanent sleep, only to be saved by Neo’s… (more…)

Why some men have dogs instead of wives

Got this via email from a friend.  He’s not married.  He does have a dog tho: The later you are, the more excited your dogs are to see you. Dogs don’t notice if you call them by another dog’s name.  Dogs like it if you leave a lot of things on the floor.  A dog’s family never visits.  Dogs agree… (more…)
