"Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow"
Reminiscent of the 30's and 40's serials......Who is the mysterious Doctor Totenkopf??....What terror awaits on Monster Island?? I went to see this movie at a 'preview' on Wednesday night. You peons can see it this coming Friday.....but it'll cost ya! haha The museaum got a bunch of free tickets for the viewing. It was quite good. Filmed in black and white with sepia over tones. Very dark and mysterious. Good action sequences, especially if you like P-40 Warhawks and Stukas! These menacing buggers will even fly underwater! There is a story line but the movie is all about the action (and Gweneth Paltrow, and Angelina Jolie...at least for me!)...Oh yeah, Jude Law is in it too. All in all it was enjoyable and I would give it a 7 out of 10...because I really like the way it was filmed...kinda reminded me of Orson Welles 'Citizen Kane' with its shadows and light and various perspectives. AND THE GOOD GUYS WIN....OOPS I GAVE IT AWAY!
I received some wonderful pics of some new aquarium with plants designed by Joel...Ever nice! Good on ya Joel! As soon as I get my Photoshop back up I will convert the files to jpg files and send them out to some people. Gotta see these, they are great!
Spent the whole day today runnin round doin errands....books, watch, CD, prescriptions. Did I tell you that we saw the movie "The Lady Killers"??? Another Coen brothers work! Wonderful, and Tom Hanks was great! Its out on DVD now and it is really worth renting! BTW there is a language warning for those with sensitive ears!...not me! Two thumbs up here!!! We also rented "Second hand Lions" which was also very good and ...no language warning here...very suitable for family viewing!...two thumbs up there. We also rented a Canada/Quebec film called "Seducing Dr. Lewis"...its about a a community that having lost its doctor is trying to convince another doctor to come to serve in their community....should be good, in a "Local Hero" sort of way.
Busy day tomorrow. I go to the Diabetes Research group in the AM and we are going to go around and drop off some of Catherine's 'marriage commissioner' cards at some of the hotels, wedding places, etc. ....gotta get to the Reh-fit too!
The new Survivor starts tonight! And Canadian Idol ends tonight. My vote is for Kalan! Although Teresa is good too.
Better go ...so remember Frau manger NASA and keep on blogging!
