Robots was Pretty Much Poo or Track Suit Power!
To fill in the blanks of the last few days:
Sunday I saw "Robots" and was very disappointed. Based on some good reviews, I was looking forward to seeing it, but found that the thing was for kids through and through. Plot holes, logical inconsistencies, and SUPER ANNOYING Robin Williams added up to something that would only really appeal to people with ADD. Having only paid $3.50 to see it, I can't claim rip off... but I would definitely wait until the cheap theatre if you really need to see the thing on the big screen.
Monday Jay and I watched one of the final Rodney Dangerfield movies "Back by Midnight" which was ok. It needed more Rodney and less faux-British lardo Kirstie Alley. I also borrowed the Ghostbusters soundtrack lp, thus reliving my early childhood where I would listen to that album while lying on a heat register or humidifier. I was a completely normal child...
Tuesday was a day of game playing at Ryan's new place by Stobes and I. In a shocking turn of events, Ryan actually WON a tournament of NHL 2K5... I feel perturbed.
Wednesday, Dave and I watched "Ed Wood" which was just as good as I remembered. Martin Landau WAS Bela Lugosi. Totally worthy of the Oscar.
Tonight Erin and I watched the horrifyingly creepy Jim Henson opus that is "The Dark Crystal" and I continued my streak of falling asleep during it. Despite liking the damn thing, I ALWAYS fall asleep at some point while viewing. Maybe it's a defense mechanism against the terrifying muppets on screen. At least "Labyrinth" has crazy David Bowie codpiece to shock you awake.
The highlight of the week thus far has got to have been to arrival of my vintage 80's velour track suit that I got off ebay. Maroon and mint, the thing is totally choice! Fits like a glove and rocks hardcore... I'm the hippest cat in the land with that smooth butter spread!
