Oscar!

I saw this movie the other night with my boyfriend. I wasn't sure what it would be like, but I most certainly wasn't disappointed. The music, slapstick comedy, adventure plot, and character development were all fantastic. I read the comics when I was younger and felt that familiar pang of nostalgia upon experiencing this animated feature. To all those who have and have not read the comics, this movie is well worth the effort of driving to the theaters one evening.

On another note, The Artist won Best Picture! I'm going to see that film this coming week. Excited!

Coming Soon

Soon I'll put up some of my images from my latest photography project, which involves projecting images in the domestic space. Exciting!

Current read: Room by Emma Donoghue
Current listen: HANNA soundtrack by the Chemical Brothers
Current watch: Blue Valentine (This movie was fantastic!)

The Fantastic Mr. Fox

Even though this has been out for a while now I still thought I'd share it with you. It's a wonderful stop-motion film based on Roald Dahl's novel. I highly recommend it!

Atonement

Here's another brilliant movie that I FINALLY saw even though it's been sitting in the movie pile for a few months. Heh. Yes, JACA, I know.
Keira Knightley does a wonderful job in this movie.
I have to say, even if you don't want to see it, you should just to see the end.
The end alone is beautiful and could win awards just like the beginning of Patton (another brilliant movie, by the way).

IRON MAN

WOW!!! That's all I have to say about this movie.
So far, this is the BEST movie of the year.
Between the amazing actors and the graphics, marvel has created a film that will be remembered far into the future. I've seen it twice now, once with the parents and the second time with Marsling, JACA, and Satling.

I also saw the Chronicles of Narnia. This second movie definitely leaves something to be desired. However, it's not a complete bust. The battle scene was pretty great.

Then there's Indiana Jones...good but not great. I have to say, I definitely enjoyed the random popping-up of prairie dogs in the middle of the screen.
Overall, the movie was entertaining but a tad bit far-fetched.
