Eternal Sunshine
Woot! Did I like
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind or what!?! I can be pretty clueless, but I think I
got this one. Sean's always been a loyal admirer of
Kate Winslet, even in the face of my calling her a cow, the skirt next to Leo on the boat, etc. But holy cow! (ooops. punny) She held your eye and mind every time she was on screen. Very cool - I can say I've
discovered Kate. p.s.
J.C. was good too. 8-)

Passion of Christ
As I drove home the night I saw this with mike, I couldn't decide how I felt about giving this movie an iPaulo rating. I'm still unclear why I was hesitant but I'm going to go ahead and give it a rating. Painful, torturous, moving, powerful, stirring, sad, rich, scary, amazing.

Cold Mountain
We saw
Cold Mountain last night at the Arclight. I really enjoyed the
Appalachian-ish folk music and thought the acting was great. I would have liked Nicole Kidman to look scruffier, especially during her supposed scarecrow phase. Wish the ending was a little more like the ending in
Dances with Wolves. I won't say more so I won't ruin the ending.

Lazy Seals
On our trip to hear
Anonymous 4 sing their new album
American Angels, we saw a herd of
lazy seals sunning on the beach in la jolla.

Starsky & Hutch
What a blast! Plenty of '70s cliches.
The S&H
Grand
Toreno. Cheerleaders. And well executed surprise
at the end along with a couple nice outtakes. This movie really exceeded my expectations.
And by the way, sometimes these movie entries are going to suck. Here's the reason. With the new blogging engine, I was able to tie the blog posted here into the movie review list over on the side. Now, it's kind of automagic. Neat, huh?

Meet the Puppies
whew! I told the Wizard of DNS to switchover iPaulo, but I almost forgot to replace the
dancing cow image I was using as a placeholder. I never would have heard the end of that. So, without further ado, the first known online image of
puck and zelda (and some guy...he's not important. did you see those
cute puppies?!)

All new iPaulo
Here we go. A new era. Hopefully, gone will be the days - I mean months - of dancing cows and long intermissions between posts. Hope you enjoy the new site design. I'll be cleaning up a few technical details, so watch out using my trackback for about a week. Otherwise, knock yourself out. Tell me what you think...
