I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.

Contraband. This was one of those "all the other shows are sold out" choices. Ended up being a pretty fast paced thriller.

We'll Take Manhatten- Made for TV filmy thingy about the photographer David Bailey and an apparently famous New York photo shoot. I know F.A about fashion or photography or anything so it was all lost on me, though at the end they showed the actual photos and...yes...I do recognise some of them. I suppose one thing that I took from it is I quite fancy the idea of having my hair like the guy in it.

How does it compare to Friday The 13th Part 8: Jason Takes Manhattan?
MOre importantly, the Muppets Take Manhattan?
PDH!

Don't do that! It's the voice actors you should be after.

Last 4 episodes of Free Agents that they posted on Hulu. I gotta say if it was still on the air, I'd probably still be watching that aimless, frivolous show. :blush:

Tangled.  Okay Pixar-ish Disney.

Recently watched the The Princess and the Frog.  Old fashioned hand drawn animation.  I was surprised how much I would like a kids movie.  Lots of Jazz.  I like Jazz. 
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

I really disliked The Princess and the Frog, which is odd because I generally do like Disney movies, even ones I have no childhood nostalgic attachment to (e.g., Hercules, Mulan, even that Atlantis movie is ok).  Korea too.  We watched it and by about an hour in were remarking how dull it was.  Didn't like the songs either.

Enchanted was good.

Been watching Dirty Jobs.  That can be fun.
PDH!

Princess and Frog was ok, I didn't like Hercules and hated Hunchback(cause Disnefying that book is just plain wrong).

Yeah, I hated Hercules and Hunchback.  With Hunchback they couldn't have missed the point worse if they were throwing darts in the opposite direction.  I mean one of the least likable characters in the book (the Captain), is made out to be a hero.

I was surprised when watching the John Carter trailer to see that it's a Disney flic.  John Carter is all about the sexy Martian babes with the gauzy crotch cloths.
