*I typed a ton, but Firefox froze b/c of my full screen quicktime... and I lost my post, so I'll try to recreate it.*
I'm waiting...
For a time that will never come...
For a day that doesn't exist...
To hear those eight precious words...
"You can now move into your new room."
Hah! You all thought I was gonna get all Ghandi on you! Nope, just being dumb. I just dropped Jenni off at the aiport a while ago... I'm bored out of my mind! And I'm loving it!
I'm also packing up all of my stuff into boxes to make the move on Wednesday fast and easy. I tried talking to the hall director and the RA and they both say I can't move anything up early. Uhh!
Anyway, what is a guy to do when there is nothing to do? And he has two 17inch LCD monitors and sweet speakers? He watches movie trailers from Apple!
So that's what I'm doing now.
Here are my thoughts on some of the trailers that I liked.
"The Departed" - Crime/Drama/Thriller. This film has an all star cast! Let me name a few: Leonardo DiCaprio, Matt Damon, Jack Nicholson, Martin Sheen, Mark Wahlberg, Anthony Anderson, and Alec Baldwin. I'm loving it already. I suggest you at least check out the trailer. Hopefully it's as good as it looks.
"Babel" - Drama. Brad Pitt, Cate Blanchett. I'm excited already! Brad is also sporting the overgrown (but not Castaway style) beard. I like him better with the beard because it makes him seem less Hollywoody... 3 films in one! Check it out!
"Children of Men" - Adventure/Drama/Sci-Fi/Thriller. My favorite BMW films wheelman takes the helm of this sci fi, but strangely down to Earth thriller. Interesting story, silly at first but it grew on me... Clive Own, Julianne Moore, Michael Caine. I seem to enjoy this trailer more if I have my nice speakers turned up; turn yours up, it'll make a difference.
"School for Scoundrels" - Comedy. I might see this only because David Cross and Ben Stiller are in it. Yes, Jon Heder is the star, and I think he's ok...but... Well, I feel bad for him. He's typecasted now. It's gonna be hard for him to break out of his Napolean character, although, this film takes a giant leap into getting hime out. I think it will help shed new talents, not just "Gosh!"
"Employee of The Month" - Comedy. Any film about Costco is gonna be good! Jessica Simpson, Dane Cook, Efren Ramirez (Vote for Pedro), Dax Shepard (Without a Paddle), and Sean Whalen. Looks like it will be funny, hopefully not raunchy, but I'll have to wait to get reviews on it; I won't be first in line, or even second.
"The Science of Sleep" - Comedy/Drama/Fantasy/Romance. If any of you liked/loved "Eternal Sunshine of The Spotless Mind," you are gonna love this too (I think?)! Directed by genius Michel Gondry, you're in for a crazy ride! Nobody I really recognized, but looks great! You just have to watch the trailer to appreciate it!
"The Prestige" - Drama/Fantasy/Sci-Fi/Thriller. I am really starting to like Hugh Jackman! I mean, he makes a perfect Wolverine, but I think he's got great well rounded acting skills. Cast: Hugh Jackman, Christian Bale, Michael Caine, Scarlett Johansson, David Bowie, and Andy Serkis. This film seems to be very interesting, dealing with magicians... what is real and what is an illusion... Decent trailer too. I also think it's funny how Jackman and Johansson are doing this film as well. I mean, they are also both starring in "Scoop." Anything going on here?
