Saw X-Men: the Last Stand and the Da Vinci Code yesterday. Don't really have much to say, I mean I agree with all the critics, they could have been done differently and much better, but not that they were bad... X-Men 3 makes me sad though, because once it's messed up, it's messed up. You can't really bring those ppl back to life for real, or give them back their powers for real (that would be a waste of everyone's time now, wouldn't it), so what's done is done... I guess we can enjoy the parts that were good or just watch X-2 obsessively and pretend 3 never happened.
Movie pass (cancelled yesterday):
1) Firefly disc 3 and 4: DA BOMB, the Firefly series is probably the best thing we've rented in the past 30 days.
2) Narnia: what, for kids. I don't even know if kids would find this enthralling.
3) Thumbsucker: entertaining, a neater version of "the Squid and the Whale" I guess, reminds me of other slick movies about a troubled teenage boy, such as Igby Goes Down. But I dislike Walter Kirn (author of the book it's based upon) enough to automatically find the story to be shallow-trying-to-be-deep.
4) Jarhead: haven't watched it yet

I keep hearing great things about Firefly. Do you care to elaborate?
Da Vinci Code: yeah, it takes less time to read the book than watch the movie. At least it feels that way.
Um hmm well Firefly is... an ensemble show... where you like all the characters. And it's funny. Oh and everyone speaks bad Chinese all the time, because in the future, everyone speaks Chinese.
..........and what is good about it?
