dog reading a newspaper
Andrew and I have seen a lot of movies recently (even without Jvan Zebari):
*Lord of The Rings - The Two Towers :: A
Three hours of action. Legolas continues to be the best character, as proven by his "skateboarding on a shield down the stairs while firing three arrows" scene.
*Death To Smoochy :: C+
If I had a dime for each time that I hoped Hollywood would make a movie "from the dark and demented mind of Danny DeVito," I'd be in debt. This movie was a lot better than I thought; at the very least, it's entertaining.
*Reign of Fire :: A
Dragons, explosions, and Matthew McConaughey jumping into the air with a pickaxe. It delivered.
*The Peabody Collection :: B+
As mentioned in the last post, Andreus Gallaraga and I watched our old Peabody tapes. I forgot about Vroom D'oh and Vroom D'oh: Part Deux, documenting Peabody's misadventures with cars.
The highlight of seeing LOTR:TTT was seeing the preview for Bruce Almighty. Crap story short: there's a scene at the end where a dog is sitting on a toilet reading a newspaper. Funny? Yeah. Hilarious? Not really. Worth laughing 10 seconds for as loud as possible? No. Seat-in-front-of-us-guy thought this was the funniest thing ever printed on celluloid and made sure the entire theater knew about it. I'm all for enjoying yourself at the movies, but enjoy responsibly...like the big guy in the back of the theater who squealed "WHEEEEEE!" when the Regal Cinemas roller coaster intro started up (which shows you, as you ride, trash and talking policies). Almost as funny as the movie theater employees wearing "Frodo lives" buttons, but not quite.
