  • Little Miss Sunshine

    clouds, as seen in the parking lot across the street from the theater Sneak preview passes for Little Miss Sunshine at the Esquire tonight… Finally, summer yields a flick that pulls all the right strings (at least for me). A hat tip to Amy and Bryan for making it happen. Good post-movie conversation over a…

  • I’m sorry I didn’t like Monster House

    the dreaded Bermuda crevice of car seats Sure cupholder technology has advanced greatly, but can some auto manufacturer tackle the problem of dropping things (like one’s mobile phone) between the seats? In other news, I found my copy of The Incredibles sandwiched under the passenger seat. After catching Monster House this week and feeling miffed…

  • Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest

    The entrance sign to a drive-in on the way to the theater where we actually saw the movie Sure the movie was long, but wow on the animation for Davy Jones and his tentacle beard.

  • Cars

    I almost needed Kleenex® I snuck in a viewing of Cars this week. I didn’t rush out to see this one, and maybe that’s because of Larry the Cable Guy™ or the NASCAR associations. Now I wonder how I could have passed any doubt over Pixar. I’m not sure why it has a PG rating…

  • rhubarb

    Good with milk So with my mom’s new kitchen in place, I went over for dinner the other night with a couple movies in tow. As we scratched our heads over Junebug, she snuck off to heat up some rhubarb. A simple concoction, cutting the stalks into chunks and bringing them to boil in a…

  • Bubble, American Movie

    Bubble I didn’t get to see this in the theater, which is sad, because I craved a really big fountain soda the whole time. Slow pace. Beautiful in an ugly way. Better than what I’d guess CSI is like, and just a bit disturbing in the reality department. American Movie (site) The photo above makes…

  • 2 duds + random photos

    If you can’t read the Post-Its®, the text is below Dear Bughouse – Sorry these 2 movies (Wedding Crashers & Dukes of Hazzard) are late. I will pay the fees, but in the future — if anyone is upset these movies are NOT available, please inform them that both movies are terrible anyway. I’m embarrassed…

  • movies I forgot to mention

    A future antique outside the Erlanger Showcase Cinema I may have mentioned these in passing, but I didn’t record any impressions. In Her Shoes – Better than expected, and I can have really low expectations. Wallace and Gromit – The CGI was terrible and choppy. Everything else was a hoot. Fun for all ages. Batman…

  • Pride and Prejudice

    Cue Enya music I jumped into work for 2006 with energy, finishing early enough to do something random for the evening. I had gift certificates for the movie theater in my wallet, so I went to see the latest adaptation of Pride and Prejudice. I figured it won’t be on the big screen too much…

  • Murderball

    An unexpected great movie I rented movies this past week, at a store, that I drove to, and walked around. On the last day before the due date, I hadn’t seen Mr. and Mrs. Smith or Murderball. There could only be one. I watched the latter and I’m glad I did. I had expectations, they…
