I’ve been rocking out to CPU, and you should too.
Ashleigh & I got to go to the theatres and see Wall-E and Wanted this weekend. Wall-E was just as good as I’d anticipated, with plenty of laughs and lots of cute little robots. The love story that developed between Wall-E & “Eeeevvaahhh” was, as Ashleigh put it, “cute & romantic.”
Wanted’s special effects were outstanding. The movie has a poor plot, but the cast is dynamite and the action made the movie a must-see for me, and I really enjoyed it.
Wow. I saw the first Hulk movie with Eric Bana and was less than impressed. Knowing that Hollywood fails more often than not with movies made from comic series, I went into The Incredible Hulk with low expectations: I didn’t expect Ed Norton to pull off the hero; I didn’t expect Tim Roth to be a good villain; nor did I expect Liv Tyler to be anything but an annoying distraction.
Lou Ferrigno’s cameo appearance was exciting. He still looks like he could kill a Tyrannosaurus.
Next up: The Happening.
A look back on the creative process.
