Movies, Movies, Movies

The Box Office seems to be doing well from some reports. People love their entertainment. See, I am not the regular movie type. Box office hits and all (I do want to see The Dark Knight). Over the Thanksgiving Holiday I saw Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. I have been waiting 20 years for this!!!!!!!!! (just joking). I would have been fine with the last one. Hollywood thinks the American public are stupid. I can understand people going to the movies to check it out. I would have only watched it for free. That is precisly what happened. A family member rented it on DVD. That's free to me. If it's free, it's for me. I know, be careful what I wish for.....
anyway, this movie.....sucked. It was the same old same old. Too many far fetched action scenes. Then (I don't want to give it away) aliens are in the story. Aliens? Yup, communists and aliens. To each their own.

I have seen a couple of good movies on cable. Adaptation with Nicolas Cage, strange but good flick and I working on finishing About Schmidt w/ Jack Nicholson.

So, Roger Ebert I am not.
Nor am I Betsy Pickle (she is the movie critic for the Knoxville paper)

Wonder how you get that job??????
