Quote of the Week

Why can’t America be exactly like America, but with decent health care and maternity leave?! Then it would be, like, a normal country!

– Mr. Goddess, cogently analyzing America’s health care crisis.

    because the Rich (read: most successful entepreneurs, nearly all business owners, inherited money, and assorted financial thieves and plunderers….you know who you are…) no longer desire to “help” the poor (read: the other 98% of us).
    As a lady with a powdered face and poofy hairdo once remarked….”let the eat Cake!”
    Oh… and they’re fervent “Christians” as well.

    Gee, this post sounds rather sarcastic! :>

    The Oscars were on in England in the early hours of Monday morming so thanks for the commentary. Regarding “Slumdog Millionaire”, I must say that I found it somewhat underwhelming. I’m surprised it was judged best picture but I guess that’s show bizz!

The word I left the theater with was "boring." Johhny Depp is a marvel, but there was little else there besides a handful of amazing visuals that I'd love to have as posters on my wall, but not as a 108-minute movie.

Mel Gibson does a good angry face, but the British TV series this was based on was sooooo much better.

Crazy Heart

Loved the music, loved Jeff Bridges. But I'm sorry, Maggie Gyllenhaal nearly ruined it for me. Is it too much to ask the Bridges' character might fall for someone in, I don't know, maybe her *thirties* or something?

Sherlock Holmes

Completely ridiculous but oddly endearing. Sorta like Robert Downey Jr.

Fantastic. So simple, so small, but kinda perfect. And very on point with the current economic situation.

The day a filmmaker with an actual story to tell ("unobtanium?!" hilarious.) gets his or hands and this amazing visual technology, that will be something.
