A friend of mine has an acting part in this movie short. It was put out a few years ago and made news overseas. I think it won an award at the Cannes International Film Festival. She is the operator who takes his call. I think she does great, although i have to admit that I never ever thought of her in this way before.
We decided to visit the Redbox at McDonald’s and I was happy to find “The Green Zone” was available. It stars Matt Damon and is about the corruption and subterfuge going on with the war in Iraq. It had more than one set of bad guys, which made it a little confusing in the beginning. But after a slow start, I began to figure it out. I even pegged the ending, which I won’t spoil for you here.
We liked the movie overall. I wonder how much truth is behind the story line in this war and the Afghanistan war? Time will tell.
Thanks for the post, Erasmo Wiley
I watch a lot of TV and I love trail mix. I buy my trail mix from Wal-Mart and I usually get the mountain mix flavor of the Great Value brand. The bag includes a generous helping of cashews, peanuts, almonds, raisins, and chocolate candy. I eat everything but the raisins. I hate raisins. As I watch TV, I pick out the raisins and lay them out on the coffee table. If I’m watching a live show, I collect the raisins in my hands during the commercials and chuck them out the window.
My brother is also a trail mix lover. I got him addicted to the snack about a year ago. We watch TV together every week while we snack on trail mix. He likes to drink root beer. I love Country Time lemonade. Our favorite shows this summer are Rookie Blue and Memphis Beat. Memphis Beat airs on TNT, and Rookie Blue airs Thursdays on ABC. We watch both shows on our satellite dish from www.expertsatellite.com. My brother has a crush on Traci from Rookie Blue, and so I constantly have to hear about how pretty she is whenever we watch the show together.
This has been “aliens week” for my house. My grandson has discovered aliens and is fascinated with the thought of beings from outer space coming to Earth.
We have watched all sorts of alien movies, watched alien based TV shows and are even eating alien food.My favorite alien movie is now “Aliens in the Attic.” It has hilarious alien characters, the heroes are kids, and the whole movie is a giggle.
When we mixed up a batch of guacamole, he announced that it looked like alien poop. So we dipped a big clump of it and put it in our mouths with a big flourish. Then we proclaimed it to be delicious! We LOVE alien poop! And he ran screaming from the kitchen – in delight.
Bored and looking for something funny to watch tonight. There is never anything good on TV on Friday nights.
Plucked the “Blues Brothers” off the shelf. Really like this movie – I’ve watched it a dozen times and I always see something new that I hadn’t noticed before. Great movie – miss John Belushi. John left this world too soon.
At the Academy Awards, Jeff Bridges won an Oscar for his starring role in the movie, Crazy Heart. So I have been very interested in seeing that movie and tonight we went to the multiplex at Opry Mills to watch it.
I have to say that Jeff Bridges was perfect for that role and it was a really good movie along with a great sound track. I want to buy the book and compare it to the screenplay. When it comes out on DVD, I’m going to definitely buy this movie to watch it again.
I cannot believe that I have spent the entire day driving around town running errands. I’ve been on the go since 8:00 this morning and am just now getting home. I have been to all kinds of stores and gone through over $400 in small purchases here and there. Boy, they really add up!
I’m looking forward to a quiet evening with a nice dinner and a movie, and tomorrow will be hockey followed by two NFL playoff games.
Tonight we saw the movie Elf. For some reason I have never watched this movie, starring Will Ferrell, until now. It has been out for several years. I wonder what has kept me from watching this cute Christmas movie?
Just about every teenage girl that I know and their moms are all excited about today. They’ve all been counting down the days to the USA premiere of the second vampire movie, Twilight: New Moon.
I did watch the first movie. It was pretty good. I don’t think it was worth all the hype we are getting for this series of books about a clumsy, silly high school girl and her vampire boyfriend.
We will soon find out if this new movie is as good as the first one – my daughter and wife are going tonight to the 11:00 pm showing. It was the first one they could buy advance tickets to see – the earlier shows have been sold out for two weeks.
Transformers director, Michael Bay, has announced a third “Transformers” movie will be released in theaters on July 1, 2011. this is a full year earlier than originally announced.
I’m not sure what is going to take so long. Maybe getting Megan Fox prepped and coached for the simple lines and action scenes will take a lot of effort from the production team again. The director’s snarky comments toward her are very amusing. To be honest, it would not break my heart if they found a new bimbo to be in the third movie. Cut that ignorant Fox loose and find someone with looks and a good attitude – Hollywood is full of them.
