family

Well, this very moment, my poor stomach is experiencing some really sad...movements. I guess I don't pile on the red meat for a reason. But no matter.

I've got this song stuck in my head. Heard it in worship at the prayer shed one time. It was really good. Can't remember the name though. It goes (if I remember correctly):

"it's gonna be wild it's gonna be great it's gonna be for me."

I know there's more but I can't recall it at the moment. But alas...

I was with my family in LA this weekend. We didn't do much except for watch a bunch of movies. Most of them sucked (i.e. Daybreakers) but some of them were awesome. Brief description of each:

Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus:
On crack. Definitely whimsical and all those other stupid words people use to describe weird movies. I liked it though. Partly because of the weirdness, mostly because it had all these historical and mythological allusions.
High Point: Heath Ledger
Low Point: Faint reminiscence of Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas.

Daybreakers:
Decent. Might have liked it more if I wasn't so sick of vampires and if it hadn't been so terribly disgusting. Seriously.
High Point: Ethan Hawke being 'serious.'
Low Point: Pierce Brosnan being stupid.

When In Rome:
Stupid. Josh Duhamel: only relevant due to his attractiveness and slight comedic timing. Kristen Bell: only like her because of Veronica Mars and that chick she played in Fan Boys.
High Point: John Heder and Pedro
Low Point: it's utter foolishness.

Leap Year:
Of course I would enjoy this movie. Matthew Goode, Irish accents...that's all it really was. When it comes to chick flicks, the only thing they take to win me over are foreign countries and foreign guys. Sad, but true.
High Point: Matthew Goode and the accent
Low Point: Amy Adams' wardrobe.

Nine:
Not really a big musical fan, but this one was pretty good. Most definitely enjoyed the different portrayals of the women. Found it highly amusing and entertaining. Especially liked Penelope Cruz and her whoriness, among others.
High Point: the jumps
Low Point: the guy (Guido?} and his singing/dancing.

THE MATRIX:
Self explanatory. This movie is a classic must-see awesome amazing movie that should be seen by all. Seriously. The Wachowski brothers were WAY ahead of their time. And people had the audacity to call Keanu gay. Those haters. Oh, and may I just say: Laurence Fishburne. Ah, love that guy. Eagerly await the new Predators. Should be a good remake.
High Point: the script, the EVERYTHING.
Low Point: trinity's clothes

Avatar: The Last Airbender
Oh LAHD! This was EPIC. And when I say epic, I mean it in the true sense of the word. Not like those stupid people who call everything epic, thus the word loses its meaning. No. This was awesome. If you've seen the cartoons, it was PERFECT. If you haven't, well....either you'll want to, or you'll just take back all of those mean and undeserving adjectives you had previously been characterizing M. Night Shamylan's films with. Yeah yeah we all know, the Happening sucked. So what? He's amazing.
High Point: Dev Patel (HOT) and seeing the cartoon come to life
Low Point: none.

Kick Ass:
EXCELLENT movie. Faintly reminiscent of Zombieland and Kill Bill...sort of like a fusion of the two, except with superheroes. In short: AWESOME.
High Point: the little girl who played Hit Girl and Nicholas Cage.
Low Point: all the f-bombs. it just didn't seem right with all the little kids.


Well...i suppose that's it for my movie rating synopsis whatever. I guess I'll go down some pepto now...
