Last DVD I watched was the best of Have I Got News For You. Three hours of hilarity. It was especially worth seeing the earlier episodes.

I got to the end of the first disc last night. The Irish kid just got swarmed and bit in the face by water moccasins. I'll finish it up tonight.

Robert Duval is funny as hell in this movie. Bye the way, the hooker in the movie is better looking than any woman that ever lived in the old West.

She wasn't playing a hooker, but same is true of Dana Delany in Tombstone...

Lakeview Terrace - Good, but predictable.

Swing Vote - Pretty funny, a bit touching, surprise ending. Worth the watch, semi-chick flick, good family show.

Park - Again, if you haven't seen this yet, you need to. A bit artsy. Funny as hell. Not for kids.

Blade Runner: The Final Cut has been re-mastered and is stunning in Blu-ray. They even re-shot a couple of scenes to fix some flaws. Perhaps my favorite sci-fi ever.

Also really liked Edge of Heaven.

Jesus' Son. SUCKED. Completely a waste of time and energy. If this guy can get a book published and a movie made, I'm freaking golden

Life of Brian


Contrasted with

Jesus Christ Superstar

which SonofV has specifically requested and queued up a couple nights this week. He's even scanned youtube for clips including clips of alternate performances. Cool.

Also, lots of Looney Tunes. Timeless classics.
