linden_jay... wow. That subject line is just... meh. Imma leave it *snerk*.
So, I've now seen Alexander and A Home at the End of the World, and I can no longer claim that I've never seen a Colin Farrell movie. t, Jess, Fiercy- I hope you're proud *blames*.
Alexander I was actually surprised with how much I didn't dislike what you were given in the movie- my main piss off was how much you weren't given. There was SO MUCH they could have done with that movie, they had the cast, they had the talent, the money, the location, the frickin' elephants. And the fact that they cut out the emotional center of the movie crippled it. I'm not saying anything that anyone who watched it a kazillion years didn't already know, but still.
A Home at the End of the World solidifies my point that Colin Farrell needs a clause in his contract that says no more doofy wigs. Like, ever. He is way too pretty to let them keep doing that to his head- it's just wrong. And good lord *sob*. Good movie. Might be a long time before I watch it again, but I was really impressed.
Next up, I have Phone Booth, Gia, A Slipping Down Life, The Hours and The English Patient. Right. Okay, so... by the time I'm done watching seventeen sad assed movies in a row, can someone please ping me until it annoys me enough that I take my head out of the oven long enough for y'all to... tell me to keep my head out of the oven? Or- even better...
Rec me your favorite movies! Happy, funny, ones your favorite actor/pup/whatever is in, whatever- but for every sad movie I get rec'd, I need at LEAST two happy or funny ones.
Oh, and PS? It's 6am, and it's already 38C, with humidity (100F). *cries*

Date: 2006-08-02 12:36 am (UTC)I love Apollo 13 which is the best movie ron howard has ever made (Ron Howard as a general rule makes my skin crawl with his treacle). Also Lee and I both have total actor crushes on Gary Sinese - have you seen his version of Of Mice and Men?
