Today I went to the movies with mom and Andrew. This is a big undertaking because I don't usually go to the movies, what with me being an internets addict and all. However, I was convinced, one could almost say tricked, into leaving the house and went to a showing of the new movie Julie & Julia. Before I get to my thoughts on the movie (lol! I's bloggin about a movie 'bout bloggin!) I saw the poster for Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland.
Looking at it, and hearing vaguely about the premise from a friend, I have already come to the conclusion that I've seen this somewhere before...but where? Maybe this will be a little less dark, but where on earth have I heard the premise of Alice returning to a Wonderland that has been corrupted by the Red Queen?
Oh wait. This is where.

(Bet some of you thought I was talking about the Resident Evil movie, amirite? Well that also kind of applies)
Anyway. On to Julie & Julia. Despite not really wanting to see the movie, as I am not a cooker, nor am I huge Amy Adams fan (I don't DISLIKE neither, I'm more or less apathetic to either) but I was pleasantly surprised with it. I was worried it would be a repeat of the snoozefest the Hours which also not only featured Meryl Streep but also had the cutting between the two parallel storylines...and was happy to find that this movie was actually INTERESTING.
I don't recall much about the internets world of 2002. I was barely in high school and all my endeavors on the internet consisted of playing games on the cartoon network website and obsessing over fake pets on neopets. However, if I would have known how easy it was to start a succsessful blog, I probably would have been all over that. Thanks Web 2.0 for crapping all over the potential market I could have reeled in with my zoo blog. (Note to self; post "cute animal pictures" blog)
Long story short, once again I had ideas to blog about but now, 4 hours later I've kind of forgotten all of them. If I remembered them, then this blog would have been like a thousand times better.
In other news, is it just me or does Inglorious Basterds look like a REALLY bitchin movie?
Bon Appetit!
