it's pretty slow here at work right now so i thought i'd try to sneak in a quick post. i can't believe it's already tuesday, as the weekend just flew by. it was a jam packed movie weekend for me, as my roommate was out of town and i didn't have much to do besides sit in an air conditioned movie theater. on friday night, i went out with a couple of girls from work to see bewitched. i personally thought it was really cute and will ferrell was hilarious. nicole kidman was good but i know a lot of people are going to think her character was really dumb. the key word is "cute." if cute doesn't sound like your cup of tea, then i would pass on this movie. and nicole kidman's wardrobe is really good in it.
on saturday i managed to get myself to the post office to pick up a package from lyn. thanks, lyn! i have to send you a real thank you soon. then i went to ralphs for some much needed supplies. after that i turned on the a/c at home and watched the first disc of deadwood, which, sad to say i loved. sad only because now i have to go buy the set, as i am notoriously horrible at watching tv on dvd in a timely manner. it's much better when i just have the series and can watch it when i want it. i can't stand the pressure of renting or borrowing tv shows from people. and did i mention that i was sick all last week, so i was kind of out of it during the weekend? yeah that wasn't fun but i wasn't too sick, so it's all good.
sunday i felt a lot better so i went to burbank to catch a showing of howl's moving castle. i've never read the book, but i thought the film was excellent. i am not sure if i liked it better than spirited away, but it was up there. and hello- christian bale has a sexy voice. seriously people, i could melt. i didn't even mind that it was dubbed over in english (i saw his last movie in japanese). i guess they're trying to appeal to kids and i am sure more people are going to see it if it's in english, even though it's not really a kids movie at all. but there were a lot of children when i went. it's kind of hard to sum up, but basically a it's about a shy young girl who is changed into an old woman by the witch of the waste and she's in love with howl, this self-centered wizard, and there's a war going on and it just goes all over the place. since i didn't have anything else to do after that i stayed for a showing of land of the dead. i enjoyed that, too. i thought the effects were really awesome and just gross at times and the plot was pretty interesting, too. there's really only so much one can do with a zombie movie but it was fun, if you like that kind of stuff.
wow it seems like i am such a couch potato. oh well it's my weekend, right? and last night i watched a really great episode of wonderfalls with my roommate. man that show was so brilliant! why oh why did they cancel it?
