Girls Will be Girls (for the second time – rented it so a friend could
see it)
Cellular (great thriller)
Traffic (with C Z–Jones)
High Fidelity
Almost Famous (it's scary how much Kate Hudson looks like her mother)
in the next few days i'll be watching:
Team America World Police
Sideways
it just blows my mind that i've got 172 DVDs in my queue. of course,
probably a quarter of them are TV shows (SATC, Will & Grace, and
Friends), but still, that's a lot of movies.

On DVD
________
The Merchant of Venice–––Wow...Al Pacino was just fabulous in this one and
Joseph Fiennes could not *get* any hotter even if Samantha on Bewitched
stopped by, blinked, and turned him into a puffy campfire marshmallow. He is
just hubba hubba cute, that one. He has the biggest, prettiest eyes where
the lashes are really long–––just like a little toddler Prince William way
back when or something–––so dapper and elegant.
The Phantom of the Opera–––a wee bit too long, but still gorgeous, romantic,
picturesque, etc. and the music was excellent, as were the costumes and
sound effects. The chandelier scene is *really* something to behold. Ouch!
That was just wild! Got this rental for free because the nice folks at
Hollywood Video sent me a rent one get one free coupon in the mail. I was
planning on heading to Blockbuster, but their devilish competetors changed
my mind!!!!

watched Team America World Police the other day. fuh–nee! but i must
issue a warning to sensitive Netflix–ers: the disc is unrated, and
there's a pretty graphic puppet–sex scene. definitely not for the
squeamish.
last night i finished off the first disc of the second season of SATC.
i don't laugh much at the dialogue, but it's clever, and delivered
quickly, which i like. and i just love looking at Mr. Big (Chris
Noth). he's so sexy, IMO.
after watching SATC, i watched Sideways. i was prepared not to like
the film, figuring it was all about wine, and i don't have a palette
for wine, etc. anyway – it was EXCELLENT. i want to say some other
things about it, but i'm afraid i might spoil it for someone. scroll
down if you're interested.
\/
\/
\/
\/
the um, soliloquy? monologue? whatever. the thing that Va Madsen's
character gives about midway thru the movie. the one about "i like to
think about what was happening when the grapes were on the vine. i
wonder if the sun was shining," etc, made me cry. it was just such an
excellent piece of verbiage – you could see how it gave Miles some hope
– finally, there's someone out there who's really right for him, that
kind of thing. it was so touching.
i didn't like the character Miles on a fundamental level – that being
that he stole money from his mother. by the end of the film, i really
hoped that Maya would call Miles and that she'd forgive him and they'd
live happily ever after, but in the back of my mind there was a little
voice saying, "yeah, but he stole from his mother – he's a greaseball.
he doesn't deserve to be happy or have anything good happen to him."
agree, disagree?

OMG!!! Cover your eyes, kids! It's prancing pervy preposterous puppet
procreation! Do *NOT* try this at home with your beanie babies and do not
fall prey to thinking you can cut an adult sized durex condom in to six
little pieces, fasten it with a small rubber band and that your six boy
puppet toys will all be sexually safe down there, children.
As far back as Kinsey and B.F. Skinner, studies have indicated that puppet
sex nearly *always* leads to new puppets nine months later and puppets
absolutely are capable of contracting the horrific Puppet Pappiloma
Virus!!!!
Puppets can even give birth to septuppupplets, too, so take precaution and
be careful. Puppets are also capable of giving birth via Cesarian Section,
*unless* they are Kangaroo puppets, in which case, Puppeynecologists and
Obstepuppetricians suggest against it.
;–) <smart alec grin, and yes, I hear ya, David...I read in The Seattle
Times that somehow, in some odd way they managed to make the puppet sex
scenes quite demonstrative and graphic, so I certainly believe you, even
though it sounds just absurd. I heard there was some highly elaborate puppet
bootie action going on in the film, actually.>

Rented The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou (Bill Murray, Owen Wilson) and
Imanginary Heroes (Sigourney Weaver) early tonight, but had company over and
we watched the NBA Playoffs this evening, so I've not yet seen either. I'll
report back when I've got comments to add on these. They're not due 'til
Sunday.
