Saw the Dead Like Me movie.  She hasn't aged well at all.  She's in her late 20's if I'm not mistaken and looks 2x that.   

She has always appeared prematurely aged.

True, this time it looks like she has a few pounds of makeup on, like Mark Hamill did after his accident.
PDH!

Saw the first 85 minutes of Swing Vote and liked what I saw.
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

Both hilarious and heartbreaking; one of Pixar's best.  They should have had the role of Charles Muntz voiced by Ted Turner.
In Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, they had five hundred years of democracy and peace—and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock

Yesterday, the French CBC showed «The Sweet Hereafters», which is one of my favourite movies... and I realized that the character of Billy was played by the same actor who ten years later played the Captain which Kirk & Co. try to save in the last Star Trek...
Egoyan is a good, if wildly uneven, director.  I don't know how many conversations I've had were I have had to defend Ararat.   :lol:

First time I've seen a miscarriage take place in a children's movie.  Especially these days.

Disney hasn't been the same since Walt died.   :(

At first I thought the internal-cam was a bit too much, but in retrospect it was really rather tasteful.

They really pushed the 'aborted by God' angle.

Went and saw Angels & Demons.

Having been in Rome 3 weeks ago and seeing a bunch of the locations in person (like Cistine Chapel, St. Peters, Castle San Angelo, and Pantheon) made me like the movie a whole lot more than I otherwise would have.

That being said - an antimatter bomb?   :lmfao:

Movie itself was kinda weird.  That's the only way I can describe it. Weird.  I enjoyed it.

I had no idea such a thing existed!

Really? That always pisses me off.
Whenever they go to tourist sites in films they always seem to be empty of many tourists and at their best.

Watched Slumdog Millionaire.

I thought it was as good as expected, so a solid B+ movie. Not sure I would watch it again though.

Its feature as a tourist guide to Rome (even if fake Vatican) is the only quality of this ridiculous movie. The «friend» who dragged me through that is owing me...
