Clean Sweep
11 for 11. Tied with Ben Hur and Titanic. Wow. What an amazing display of respect and honor for The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King at the Academy Awards last night. The movie was just showered with awards all night long, and deservedly so. It won in the expected catagories such…

Morons! Your bus is leaving!
Rise and shine, campers, and don’t forget your booties ’cause it’s cooooooold out there today! The groundhog says six more weeks of winter. Wonderful. More sleet and snow is on the way tonight. Wonderful. I normally like winter, and it’s great to have it all wintry for Christmas. But just like last winter, it’s getting…

My Favorite Movie Has a First Name, It’s O-S-C-A-R
The nominations are in. The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King did very well. 🙂 I think the biggest shocker is that Cold Mountain did not get a Best Picture nomination. I haven’t seen this film, but it was getting rave reviews so I figured it was a lock for a nomination.…

One Movie to Rule Them All

If you haven’t guessed already, the first movie I’m talking about is Matrix Revolutions. Everyone’s been waiting since the spring to see…

Suspenseful Birthday
I just googled for something and saw that it’s the birthday of one of my favorite directors: Alfred Hitchcock. You may know (or maybe you don’t) that Monica and I are really nostalgic for nostalgia, and old movies really fuel those feelings. If you haven’t seen any Hitchcock films, I highly suggest starting with this…

Hulk Smash!
I forget to mention yesterday that we saw The Hulk. Monica totally did not want to see it and was convinced it was going to suck, but I “twisted her arm”. So maybe she was right. I mean, it was a decent movie, but I don’t think the acting was very good (what was Nick…

Autobots, roll out!
Holy cow! This would be so cool! I just hope they use the characters and storyline from the old ’80s cartoon and not from the crappy new ones.

Wanna see a movie?
I thought the trailer for this movie looked cool… …until I saw the trailer for this movie. :shocked: Wow.

Losing Vick
More changes to the site. I started Jack’s page, but there isn’t much on it right now. Added some “Items of Interest” on the right side of the front page. I’ve also added some pages so you can see previous movies and dvds that we’ve seen. Let me know what you think of the changes.…
