Generation Gap

*watching Attack of the Clones* David: Anakin is Darth Vader, you know. Greg: But, how does he turn to the Dark Side? David: Daddd.. don't you know anything.. fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate and hate leads to suffering.. Suffering leads to the _Dark_ Side. Michelle: So everyone having to suffer through this movie will turn any moment now.

Tuesday Movie: Sahara

Dear Santa, I'm writing you early this year so as to give you lots of time to organise my Christmas gift. I have been, and continue to be a very good girl, so am completely sure you will be overwhelmingly happy to grant my Christmas wish. I'd like to bring to your attention the fact I only want one christmas present. I'm not being greedy or wasting the Earth's precious resources by needing fancy packaging - my present can be delivered in a natural state with no need for packing peanuts or bubble wrap. I promise to take good care of my gift and actually, won't need another - if granted this one - in my lifetime. So you see, Santa - by delivering Matthew McConaughey to me on Christmas [preferably in the style of his character, Dirk Pitt* from Sahara] morning will actually save you time and effort in the long run. your selfless and devoted believer, Michelle. What a rollicking good movie. Not rocket science - not even good continuity but a good time, that's for sure. *wow, that's a really manly name! PS: Rosie is the Queen of the Internet (nice boobies) - McConaughey's "Sahara" Stream Journals (he's not packing peanuts) Rosie says: I found it googling for the incident that was all news when we were in austin texas, where he got caught stoned playing bongos in the Nuddie.

Movie: Robots

Let's get the movie review (for want of a better word) out of the way first - Robots: an excellent example of beautiful animation and equisite rendering. Ok, I'm done. No, no.. don't worry about the story, don't worry that it falls between the cracks, albeit lovingly, between adult and child so neither *really* likes it. It's beautifully detailed right down to the last nut and bolt. :) The really good news is there's going to be an Ice Age 2! The very *very* best bit was that I saw it at the Circle Lounge. !! What do you mean you don't know what the Circle Lounge is? Ok.. stay right there - I have to clean up my lounge and hang washing on the line and all that fun stuff then I'll come back and tell you allll about it. mind my posy. brb *afk*
