Movie Time! Fast 5

June 5, 2011

Hard to believe that I only watched the first of the Fast & Furious series about a month or two ago!  I had seen a preview for Fast 5 and thought that it looked interesting… but I needed to catch up and watch the first four movies first!  I’d say that they were all pretty [...]

Movie Time – Limitless

April 1, 2011

Wouldn’t it be great if we could unlock the entire potential of our mind?  The movie claims that we only use 20% of our mind at any given time.  I’m sure that I’m even less than that most days!  But just imagine if you could take a pill that opened up the rest of the [...]

Who’s Your Gnomie?

March 21, 2011

My sister and I have a longstanding disagreement regarding the existence of certain little human-like folk called Gnomes.  Ever since we were kids, she swore up and down that they were real.  That’s ridiculous!  Everybody knows that the Dwarfs drove them to extinction!  But that’s another story. So I was tickled pink when I saw [...]

Movie Time! Iron Man 2

June 17, 2010

I was a little worried that I wasn’t going to get a chance to see Iron Man 2 in the theatre!  Every time that I wanted to go see it, it didn’t match up with someone else’s schedule.  I was even prepared to go see it myself if I had to!  (Yes, I know.. how [...]

May 24, 2010

I went to see a movie recently. Date Night.  It’s not going to win any Academy awards, but it’s not a bad little movie if you’re looking for a night out… maybe even a date, perhaps!? I was easily the most… ahem.. senior… person in the movie theatre that night.  I can say that because [...]

The Hurt Locker

December 19, 2009

I’m not normally into independent films.  I don’t think that I make a conscious decision to avoid them.  I think that it’s more of a lack of awareness that they even exist.  And that’s a shame because I watched a very good one recently.  I remember seeing a preview for The Hurt Locker in the theatre, and [...]

I Want My Life Back, Beth Cooper!

November 29, 2009

I have a pretty high tolerance for those “coming of age” teenage flicks that seem to pepper the walls at Blockbuster.  But for every 1 American Pie there are 100 duds.  I Love You, Beth Cooper was definitely not one of the former. I really wasn’t expecting an Oscar-winning performance, but I also wasn’t expecting [...]

Bye Bye, Mon Cowboy!

June 5, 2009

Now there’s a reference that will probably go over most people’s heads. I’m sitting here listening to some music on my iPod. I’m in the mood for something a little different than the stuff that I’ve been listening to recently. Dust off the old 80s and 90s happy music. Happy music? Who would have thought [...]
