Men In Black 3

Jemaine Clement and Josh Brolin were both pretty good in this. There were fun bits here and there, but nothing too memorable.

I took Heather across the street to the Readings Town Square 14 to see tonight because she had not seen since she was 12. The movie was introduced by two Asian teenagers who were trying very hard to lead the crowd in a fun game of movie trivia, but it was made increasingly difficult by a row of women who were probably in their late 30's/early 40's but all acted much younger and much more immature. Plus, they all looked like they should be a Rollergirl team. I digress, the presentation itself was among the worst I've ever seen; a dvd blown up, stretched out, and so so so dark. A movie should have presence on the big screen, should it not?

Roadgames (1981)

Re-watch. Love this movie and love showing it to people. Showed it to my friend Carthy tonight. He thoroughly enjoyed it.

Monsers, Inc. (2001)

Waited 11 years to watch it & I loved it. Very funny and sweet.

Rear Window (1954)

I liked it, although I thought it was a bit long. Also, it's one of those movies that even though I had never actually sat down to watch it, I still felt like I had seen it. If you've never seen "Roadgames," which is essentially an Australian remake of this, you should check it out.
