Is there a little Wild in all of us?

My Brothers are cool, they just are, I can't explain why. I am lucky to be related so I can be cool by association. We have a lot of common likes so we send links to each other when something catches our eye. 

This morning I received  this link from David. Now we are BIG fans of the book Where the Wild Things Are by Maurice Sendak  . As a kid I would pour over the pages, reading and re-reading the adventures of Max. Drawn in by the illustrations that made me want to visit that far off place, so when the movie was announced I was a bit skeptical. Can they really capture the fantastical nature of the book? It wasn't even going to be animated. However this looks promising, plus with Arcade Fire supplying the music for the trailer it is a bonus.

Go here and take a gander.... 

Will I see it...just maybe.

Dr. Horrible

My Brother in Law Brian sent my sisters and I this message.  I really am a nerd and love Joss Whedon's humor.

"This is some bizarre little thing done by Joss Whedon, the creator of Firefly. It's free to watch until Sunday night, though you could probably find it on You Tube. Kinda Funny..."

Dr. Horrible's Sing Along Blog

With Characters like Dr. Horrible, Captain Hammer and Moisture Man, how can you go wrong. If you are a fan I highly recommend it. 

Thanks Brian, you are awesome!

Iron Man vs Made of Honor

 

I went to see both of these movies opening weekend. I know that there really is no contest between them and one is far superior over the other, but I will give my thoughts on both.

Friday night was reserved for Made of Honor. It was a girls night out and the whole purpose was to get together with friends. We knew that the movie was going to be cliched rom-com but like watching a car crash, we girls must watch. It was bad. The highlight of the night was spending time with Brittany and A-Gril.

Saturday night...Iron Man. I didn't know what to expect. It is a 2nd tier Marvel super-hero (I know, I'm a Nerd). So far I haven't loved most super-hero movies. Spiderman was a joke. X-Men had a good run, until the 3rd. I have yet to subject myself to the "new" Superman. Question is when is the Wonder Twins movie coming out? Can they make 3 out of them turning into different forms of water and animal. Maybe Gleek the monkey will get his own show. I digress.

I really like the new take on Batman  and look forward to June when I can see Christian, I mean Batman, in all his glory. So back to Iron Man.... A.J. (fellow geek), Lisa and A-Gril went to see it. It was AWESOME! I have always loved Robert Downey Jr and he did not disappoint. Even Gwyneth did a decent job of not getting under my skin. Lisa even approved and she does not like geek movies.

So wait for Made of Honor to play on TNT or TBS and GO GO GO see Iron Man.
