Random Thoughts Thursday

A "mish mash" edition

* My theater/acting class was canceled. They cited lack of enrollment. But... I was enrolled! And I couldn't have been the only one! Well, Delaware is a small state, so maybe...

* Right now, I'm working on "sad," "frustrated," "disappointed" and other emotions like that on my own.

* What on earth will I do with the next six Thursday nights?

* Why was Suri wearing one of Tom Cruise's toupees on that magazine cover?

* Why do people pretend the movie theater is their living room? Like the sidebar says, I'd like to tell you how "Hollywoodland" was, but the couple with the plastic grocery bag, who dug into it for, like, 30 minutes -- WITHOUT LOOKING so it took way too long each time -- ruined the experience for me.

* The man ate an apple, a banana, popped two sodas -- that's about when I went to the manager to complain.

* Despite the enormous amount of contraband and noise, the manager told them to knock it off, but not to leave.

* Remember consquences? Oh, nostalgia!

* It's raining, but not men.

* I liked "Men in Trees."

* Today is changing sheets day. And yes, of course -- hospital corners.

* Smile on!

Movie Mania!
Featuring the TLJ-
Roger Ebert 4-star system.
Usually, Rog and I agree. Usually.

The Dark Knight
TLJ: 3.5 stars
Ebert: 4 stars
I agree, it's an "engrossing tragedy." A great film that makes you think.

I Love You, Man
TLJ: 3 stars
Ebert: 3.5 stars
I liked it, too, Rog, but not as much as you. Yes, you're right -- Jason Segel is my new favorite guy though I do still love my Paul Rudd, too. I laughed enough that I was happy I rented it. Corny, silly, but smart in places, too.

Ballerina
TLJ: 2.5 stars
Ebert: No review online
This movie followed the ballerinas of the Russian Kirov and other ballets from youth to company. I liked learning how much the dancers sacrificed, how perfectionistic they are (even more than they're teachers and choreographers), and how dedicated, but what was missing? Dancing! They kept teasing me with brief pieces from various ballets. I wanted to see more of the payoff of their hard work.
