Those are great ads.

Meth...not even once.

A guy I used to work with called doing meth "scrubbing bricks." I asked him why, and he said that when he tried it, he decided to put a patio in his backyard. Every time he laid a brick down in the dirt he noticed that it got dirty, so he'd pick it up and clean it with a little brush. Over the course of several hours he got a total of about four bricks down.

Damn, good weekend to go see family movies. Muppets, Arthur Christmas, and Hugo are all opening, and all three are receiving glowing reviews - no Rottens yet for Hugo or The Muppets, and 34 fresh, 2 rotten for Arthur. That's pretty damn superb. I wonder which will make the most money? Muppets, I guess?

Three Musketeers w/out a doubt was the biggest piece of shi-te Ive seen in years....

Orlando Bloom, when not playing an elf, is a terrible actor.

Walked out of the theatre after 45 minutes.

I've read some online reviewers (hilarious people) review just how historically awful Breaking Dawn really was such that I almost want to see it, but I refuse to support it (not that it matters since it already made $140 million opening weekend). I've never bought a ticket for another movie and snuck in to a different one, but I almost want to.

You'd stick out like a sore thumb.

But yeah, having seen approximately 90 seconds of the first one during a commercial break of the Giants game Sunday night, good lord is the acting / dialogue nut-suckingly awful.

So I'm always 2 years late on these things but whatever. Earlier this evening I saw the super duper edition of Avatar on my buddy's new 3D setup...Holy [expletive], what an awful [expletive] waste that was. Just all-around worthless.

Downfall is on streaming now, so that should help restore my faith in cinema.

Saw Muppets last night at the midnight show since the kid didn't have school today. Very funny, including the song and dance numbers. Flight of the Conchords songwriting very evident and just perfect.

Had not heard the FOC piece. Cool.

I saw all of the first Twilight because they filmed a scene very near my house (not three miles away) and I wanted to see the Carver Cafe scene. It was bad, but not rip out my eyes bad. There's a very laughable vampire baseball scene that everyone should see, however.
