Finally saw 'Where the Wild Things Are.' It's a movie I've been anticipating for a long, long time.
It was more fun than I thought it was going to be after reading all the reviews. I was grinning for the first half of the movie 'I have a double re-cracker.' But I'd still love for Pixar to adapt the book in a few years.

I'm not exactly one of those Hollywood audience types that has to have big explosions and CIA intrigue in every movie, but I wanted a bit more of a story-arc in Wild Things-land. I felt like it should have gone farther.

I thought the ending was really nice. It sure is a beautiful movie. The featurettes and hopefully at some point, a director's cut, will be very interesting.

Anyway, I'd say it's good, not great.

Hopefully it doesn't take seven years for the next Spike Jonze movie.

It really is, and that's by far the nicest thing you can say about it. There is no semblance of a narrative and Carol distractingly morphs into Tony Soprano pretty much immediately.

In The Loop- One of the funniest movies I have seen in quite awhile. Highly, highly recommended. If colorful language bothers you, don't watch it, but otherwise enjoy.

That movie is gonna be super fun, but I can't imagine how "controversial" it's going to be.

When Machete comes out, I'll be first in line.

EDIT: That video contained boobs. On YouTube. So yeah. Search it yourself if boobs aren't a problem but I no wanna get banned.
