life of sloth

since Mitch left for hunting, I have watched the following:

Heroes season 2 (eps 6-11) - so much unfinished business, due to the Hollywood strikes this past season. looking forward to the new season (and hopefully some closure) alot...

Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day - I loved this one. definitely a chick flick, but a smart one.

Adaptation - weird. just...weird. but funny. I somehow missed this one when it came out a few years ago. the presence of Chris Cooper almost made up for the presence of Meryl Streep.

Step Up 2 the Streets - yeah, that one's painfully embarassing to admit. despite the fact that I don't dance at all, dancing movies are a guilty pleasure of mine. I can't help it; so much fun dancing, despite horribly cliched storying.

The New World - another one that I missed when it came out a few years ago... not quite sure how I missed it, but so glad I finally watched it. how did I not know that this movie was directed by Terrence Mallick? The Thin Red Line is one of my favorite movies! I love the tone-poem quality to his films.

The Bucket List - watched this one with my parents. it was...meh. predictable.

...and tonight I'm going to watch Casino Royale. I'm not a huge Bond fan (thanks in large part to slimy Pierce Brosnan), but I want to be familiar with the Daniel Craig Bond before Quantum of Solace comes out in a few months. (Coolest title ever, btw)

Daniel Craig is an awesome bond! I think you will like it alot. The Fall was great (at least the first 1/2) You will like it. Included in the dvd is another movie called "The Promotion" it is hilarious. look it up.

And here I thought Quantum of Solace was Quantum Leap finally breaking out from beloved, acclaimed TV series into theaters! Who will he be this time, and what impossible circumstance will he leap into at the cliffhanger end?

I was expecting some crossdressing and Al the invisible hologram interaction. But rats, it's another Bond flick. Meh.

Also, I really loved Adaptation. I am a big fan of that screenwriter.
