Collateral

I'm sorry it took me this long to get around to watching it.

Good movie, but there are a couple of shots where Tom Cruise's beard just looks too fake.

Airplane! (The Stop Calling Me Shirley Edition)

Must be watched many times, not just because the movie is so darn funny ... the extras are that good ... pop-up trivia and director's commentary are both very funny. The 'Long Haul' version with added commentary and deleted scenes inserted into appropriate spaces is a little choppy to watch, but interesting and informative.

The main menu for the DVD is set up like a safety card ... watch it all the way through, it's also quite amusing.

I think this line's mostly filler.

Just watched the Ring 2 - much better than I expected
Watching The Wire with my dad - Probably the best cop show ever made.
Watching Six Feet Under with my mom - I love HBO
Watching Red Dwarf Season 7 all on my lonesome - Extended, remastered episodes are interesting, since I've seen the originals so much.

Tonight I intend to start on Dark Angel, Season One. I don't know if I'm going to bother getting Season Two. I thought that the story lagged too much.

Zippy, I totally need one of those.

I am continuing to watch Season One of Dark Angel.

I do not like chicks (that way) and tend not to comment on them, but even I think Jessica Alba is hot.

We watched Kingdom of Heaven last night. I was really moved by it. Especially the bit at the end where Saladin picks up the cross and places it back on the table. It was beautifully shot as well.

That was really good, thanks for the tip. I was digging through a couple of books here trying to draw the fact v fiction line.

The Barbarian Invasions. There was a lot to this movie. I'm still trying to figure out who the Barbarians are. This was actually recommended to me by my Mother-in-Law (reflexive lefty) despite its unflattering portrayal of socialized medicine.

I Heart Huckabees...great for triggering a little discussion on the nature of reality, as well as a laugh fest.
