Back when it came out at the theater I caught this movie with my wife. Despite it being Miley Cyrus playing a leading role the movie is pretty good, largely because it has a good story. Granted not at all my typical kind of thing, but it is well worth seeing.
And yeah, I am breaking one of my typical rules and making a second post in the same day. To many things that I have noted to post about that have timing issues associated with them. Way too many drafts and notes that I end up not writing because the moment is passed. Way to many things that my brain wishes to express at times also. On to the movie…

In keeping with my recent promise to myself of posting whatever reviews or comments I had about movies that I have recently seen in a more timely fashion, here we go. Just last night my lovely wife and I went to see the most recent (and perhaps last) ?episode in the Toy Story saga. The movie, by Pixar and Disney, lived up the expectations of the name and indeed probably gave us story on par or perhaps slightly better than the original. Given that I saw the 3-D version of the flick, I was even more impressed with the animation of the third installment.

A few weeks ago I agreed to go see the movie Remember Me with my future (and very soon I might add) wife. She is of course, a major Twilight addict and of course the main attraction was Robert Pattinson (of Edward fame) was playing the lead role in Remember Me. I admit I entered the cinema with low expectations for the film and came away pleasantly surprised.

Starting out the new year right. My goal off the top of the bat is to post daily for the month of January. That being said, my biggest first observation of the year is just how much of a cluster the holiday season between and around Christmas and New Years plays on blog readership. I went from pushing close to two hundred daily readers in the first half of December to barely getting twenty some days in between the holidays. Guess that says what most of you are doing at work, eh? Just kidding. In all seriousness I did not post as much during the that time either, but I am back on a roll now and so without further ado, some of the first of my observations for 2010!

Any one seen the movie An Affair to Remember? I am sure millions of you (as if I have that many readers) have seen it. I am sure further that a good half of that number would list it in a top 25 romantic movie list. And for those that have not there would be an equal number would recall the references and clips of the movie in the more modern movie Sleepless in Seattle. Well, I am going to say that I just really do not like the movie and what is all about, which is really saying something as Cary Grant is one of my favorite actors from the time period it was produced. If you have not seen it, warning for spoiler information ahead… Read more…
