prince caspian

prince caspian was lovely. not as great as i had built it up to be, but great. i love a movie where (spoiler alert) the trees kick butt. yes! lord of the rings didn't even quite go there. they should have. they must have run out of time or they would have i suppose.

hey, i read a critque where the critic didn't get why the telemarines had spanish accents. if you PAY ATTENTION to the end of the film you will understand perfectly why. it is so simple i wonder he didn't get it. c.s. lewis was no dummy. he was brilliant in fact. i may have to go and read the chronicles again. i have them all in one giant book with a huge picture of "aslan"'s head on the cover. soooooo good. the book, not the cover.

wall-e

i had my doubts. i almost didn't go. i am glad i went. believe the hype. wall-e is great. wall-e was so endearing he reminded me of my baby boy! that my be a stretch for you, but for me, not so much. jack and wall-e are so similar. they both are small and unsteady. they both emit little burbles and squeaks. they are both sweet. end of arguement. my son is a robot.

by the by. the premise in wall-e that the earth could be covered in garbage is, i believe, false. no way would the land lovin' liberals ever let that happen. in a world where we have to protect the forests so that a little owl is not killed, but human babies can be aborted every day... well, the land is safe. never gonna happen. not that i believe it should. i am just saying it won't.
