movies, tv shows

Probably will check out the Counterfeiters and Funny Games this weekend :-). Also, checked out Horton hears a who - didn't think it was all that - kind of overly silly - but guess the families love it. Also, finally checked out "Chinatown" earlier this week - definitely a classic, but such a morose ending - sheesh! And Target has a great DVD sale going on - just picked up "West Side Story" for $7.50. Also, finally started watching my collection of the first 2 episodes of "The Incredible Hulk" - definitely such a depressing pilot episode - tears still well up when I watch it - the story, the music, the tragic ending, etc - definitely the writers did a good job with it.

New movies

Well, finally saw a few movies I liked in the last 2 weeks - saw the Bank Job and The Other Boleyn Girl. Thought the Bank Job did a good job coming up with a story for the gag order issued regarding a mysterious bank job years ago in London that made off with around 5 million dollars and no arrests. Also, despite the bad reviews, thought the Other Boleyn Girl nicely fictionalized the story of Anne's sister, Mary, and both of their relationships with King Henry VIII. Would recommend both. Also, will be checking out "City of Men" tomorrow - supposed to be a sequel to "City of God" so look forward to it.
