Angels and Demons
I just finished
Angels and Demons by Dan Brown who wrote
The Da Vinci Code, which I have not read. Good book! It was a page turner with a great finale.

Now that I know how to
dissect an ipod shuffle, I think it's safe to buy one.

meet the fockers
I laughed. Wasn't amazing, didn't feel as original as the first, but I laughed. I'm glad I saw it.
finding neverland
I enjoyed finding neverland. It was a nice story with good acting. The locations and special effects worked. Very entertaining movie.

virgin silverback
Yesterday Alan told me about
fark.com. The most emotional experience of my first visit was the sad story of
OJ the Virgin Gorilla. My favorite today: a google search of fark while I looking for the OJ article, the first result featured
Mike Tyson biting the ear. Go figure. Maybe poor OJ needs to bite some ears to get the attention of those mud throwing females.

in good company
I enjoyed
in good company. I especially enjoyed the age appropriate casting. Dennis Quaid's wife wasn't 20.
Scarlett Johansson looked the right age for the part, etc.
hotel rwanda
sad, amazing, powerful, scary, evil, goodness, inspiring.
ocean's 12
not as slick as the first, but not a bad sequel. I enjoyed it and it was an important, not-heavy part of the double feature myk and I made out of this movie and the very heavy Hotel Rwanda.
life aquatic
Bill Murray is fun to watch.
million dollar baby
It's not a boxing movie!
sideways
Right. Since I'm playing catch up on movies, I'm being kind of sloppy. There are going to be a lot of full ipaulo ratings. Don't let that fool you, this movie was excellent. I'm drinking more red wine since watching this movie, which is good for my heart. That was going to be the first line in a sort of blogging montage about things I've started doing because of sideways, but I've forgotten the others. And I still have 5 other movies to blog before I'm caught up. Gotta go!! So please go create your own
google montage about wine.
the machinist
Ignorance is bliss! NOT!! If I had known how gut wrenching this movie was going to be, I'm not sure I would have gone. It was an amazing movie, but it did feel like it took part of your soul.
the incredibles
Holly Hunter owns(!!) this movie. When I grow up, I want to be
Holly Hunter.
national treasure
ooops. While using MarsEdit to catch up on movies in my blog, I erased my original national treasure post. Well, it went something like "It was your typical wannabe indiana jones movie but it show us
Diane Kruger who really is a national treasure of germany."
Testing out MarsEdit
Awesome. At UCLA, there is a guy who for years has been posting about the Mac. I just love the stuff he comes up with. Case in point...
For those maintaining blogs here's a nifty editor...

Such a simple post. Short and to the point. And it turns out the program is amazingly handy. Since moving to Movable Type, I've been a little unimpressed with its editor. Now, Jose at UCLA has solved that problem. Thanks Jose!
