Big screen: Night at the Museum
- Ben Stiller must work out because he appears to really haul ass in that one scene.
- I don’t care. If it has Owen Wilson in it, I’ll watch it.
- Earth Wind and Fire is always good party music.
- I’ve never worked a solo night shift and that’s probably a good thing. I can see how your imagination could totally get the better of you.
- Some fifth thing that I forget. That movie was funny, but didn’t exactly have staying power.
Little screen TV on DVD: Northern Exposure
- Wow, it really does hold up over time.
- That doctor was one whiny pain in the ass.
- It is funny to see places you know so well on TV.
- The romance is amusing, but it was so not the best thing about this show.
- When this show was good, it was brilliant. Really freakin’ brilliant. The last episode of Season 1 just blew my mind. No, really. It was amazing.
Little screen DVD: Citizen Kane
- They don’t make movies like this anymore. There might be a reason for that.
- Of course it’s Hearst. Duh.
- “I think it would be fun to run a newspaper.”
- The Third Man is a much better movie.
- J. never gets the obscure movies, and THIS he got. I found that mildly irritating.
Little screen DVD: Grizzly Man
- People should stay away from bears.
- People should stay away from bears.
- People should stay away from bears.
- People should stay away from bears.
- People should stay away from bears.
Ditto on Owen Wilson. Dontcha just love his pouty lips?
Northern Exposure was always one of our favourites too. Must look into getting the DVDs. It’s a TV wasteland out here, you know.
With all your local travels Pam, you must of been to Roslyn, WA. You can even get a drink in “The Brick”…. actually, you can own it now…. I heard it’s up for sale.
For me, the highlight of the TV series was the catapult flings. I loved it when Chris the DJ, and a few of the town folk constructed a giant medieval catapult and flung a grand piano up to the sky, the universe, and finally into smithereens (it was going to be a cow, but they thought it out a bit more) — it’s flight was so gracefull, thanks to slow motion.
They also catapulted the coffin of one of Chris’s ol’ prison buddies into a raging river… so he could finally see the beauty of Alaska (NW) and be at peace.
Now that’s good Television.
