Phinally!

I'm going to the parade :)

movies on cable!

Just some thoughts on some movies that I happened to catch...

V for Vendetta:

I could not get into this. It's been repeated several times on FX and I've tried watching it because it has a really great British cast that rivals the Harry Potter cast films but I guess I am too juvenile to accept the idea of the hero beating bad guys with that mask. I started giggling the minute he interacted with Natalie Portman. I also had a hard time with Natalie's performance. She's really pushing that accent. I kept wondering what background did she have? At times she sounded like she was straight our of a Jane Austen flick then later switches it to Dick Van Dyke from Mary Poppins. "'Ello Mawwree Poppinz!"

I wondered why didn't the producers just hire an English actress and save their money on dialect trainers?

Cabin Fever:

I have to say I really enjoyed this one. It came close to Sam Raimi's Evil Dead [I&II] in the category of stupid horror comedy. It made me want to hurl, with scenes of victims coughing and spurting up diseased blood on each other. ICK.
And I loved all the creepy mountain town folk. Recommended for a Halloween movie night.

Blast from the Past

I knew that one day Peter Puck would come back. When I was a wee Keegs, I used to watch the Flyers game with my family just so I could catch the Peter Puck cartoons.

It's about time...

I was waiting for someone to do this joke, and I can't resist posting it.
