Me-bert & Roepper

So, I saw two movies this weekend - Charlie & The Chocolate Factory and Red Eye. Neither were great, but I think I may have gone into both w/ too high expectations. For C&TCF, I loved the first one, and I love both Johnny Depp and Tim Burton, so I figured this movie would be just great. I have to say I preferred the first version though. It may have a lot to do with the nostalgia factor, but Johnny and Tim just couldn't beat the original... nice try though, E for effort. For Red Eye, I just heard from several people that this movie was an awesome, keep-you-on-the-edge-of-your-seat thriller, so of course I went into it thinking it was going to be just greatness. I ended up being kind of disappointed. I found it to be totally predictable and uninspired. I can go in to a movie suspending my disbelief, but when I find myself going WTF at least a dozen times during the film, it starts to get old. Neither films were bad, but in hindsight I would have preferred to wait until they came out on DVD.

That's all for now... yea to Tim for bringing back his (hopefully) daily news briefs - for the latest and greatest on current events, nothing beats the news a la Timmy... check it out.
Now I will leave you with a fun music video for your viewing/listening pleasures.

TTFN, Ta Ta For Now!!!
