Wednesday’s Abs: 4/30/08

(although… the abs weren’t the only thing that caught my eye!)

Movie/DVD Review: There will be Blood…

Contessa says, “Not enough blood in this film to keep me entertained…” 

(there will be yawning!)

Overrated.  Bigtime.  Scratching my head and trying to figure out why all the original hub-bub surrounding this movie?  Am I seriously the ONLY one that feels this way? 

Sure Daniel Day Lewis did well with his character… but still.

This movie was:
(-) infidelity
(-) puking       … never a good sign, as you need one or the other to make a really GOOD movie!

Personally, I don’t think this movie was worth 2.5 hours of my time (let alone the $3.99 rental fee).

Movie Review: 21

Predictable.  Best thing about the movie is the Vegas scenery.

This movie was–
(-) infidelity
(-) puking

(how boring is that?)

Contessa says, “Wait til it comes to DVD.”

Rotten Tomatoes agrees with The Contessa:  Consensus– Supplants the fascinating true story in favor of mundane melodrama…

 For a movie about high-stakes gambling, 21 settles for penny-ante dramatics. 04/14/08 10:41 AM

Ratings Image A film that makes Rounders seem like a work of great seriousness and import.  04/02/08 04:43 PM 

Monday’s Nun: 4/28/08

Peering from the doorway, Sister Mary O’Donnell silently cursed her decision in choosing basket weaving over sketching as her extra-curricular activity.

Movie Reviews: Forgetting Sarah Marshall; Juno

There were things I both loved and hated about Forgetting Sarah Marshall

Scenery?  Loved it.
Male, full-frontal nudity?  ’bout freakin’ time.
Mila Kunis?  Gorgeous!
Dracula opera w/puppets?  Original and bold.

But–
maybe a little too much stereotypical “humor,” and LONGISH in parts.

Still, Contessa says, “Not a bad way to spend a rainy afternoon at matinee prices.”

This movie was:
(+) cheating/infidelity: it’s why we’re all trying to forget Sarah Marshall.
(-) puking: amazingly enough, with all the raunchy humor, no puking scene.  Or maybe I missed it?…

 

Rented this one on DVD.  Watched it this evening.  Loved Juno

Amazingly quirky. 
Awesome soundtrack. 
And orange tic tacs… What’s NOT to love?

Contessa says, “A must see!”

This movie was:
(+) puking:  hello– pregnant teen in the house!
(-) cheating/infidelity.  

Craptastic: a Training Report

Crap:  ’cause I’m SLOW– and still working on base training (and just trying to get my mileage up).  I’m still running a full 1:30 min/mi LESS than where I was at 12 months ago.  Slow going…

Tastic:  ’cause at least I’m out there.  at least I’m out there.

Saturday Report:  3.72 miles, 55*F cloudy
Sunday Report:  3.73 miles, 51*F  light rain

(13.5 miles for week– met my goal)

3.12 miles; EZ; 71*F
