What Is Going on in My Mind Today?

well the tv season is over and the season finales have either keep us longing for more or not so much.

longing for more:' csi miami', 'spartacus', 'the good wife', 'grey's anatomy', 'brother's and sisters' and 'bones'. and of course 'glee'.

re 'glee': we knew they had to lose regionals. yes? yes we did so that next year they'd be even more determined and competitive and a more cohesive group. i mean even the toughest among them caved during 'to sir, with love'. everyone is talking jane lynch for an emmy nomination and i agree. but why no talk of the multi-talented matthew morrison. c'mon folks he's a wonder to behold and drips talent from every pore.

the gulf is on my mind. we continue to destroy the air we breath. now pb has raped our seas. we were not 'given' this planet. it has been loaned to us. we are blowing it. time for the powers that be to take it back and give it to a more intelligent species. yes there is a more intelligent species i am sure. good gods there has to be.

i'm going to miss '24' a lot.

the 2010 summer movies seem to suck. maybe a sleeper will come along. i'm hoping 'inception' is it.

why is sarah palin still popular? as i said there must be a more intelligent species out there.

why are republicans and pundits trying to make barack obama come out angrier. oh yeah they want him to come across as the stereotypical angry black man. stay calm barack for all our sakes. frack the republicans. idiots all.

'Dear John' on DVD and Bluray: *1/2 stars



i truly don't know what to say about this film. well it is getting 1 1/2 stars and not 0 stars because of tatum channing's understated wonderful performance. throw in richard jenkins as his mildly autistic dad and a semi charming amanda seyfried. semi charming as in the first half of this somewhat disjointed film. at first miss seyfried is a wonderful wide eyed charmer who turns into a real bitch. what she does and how she does it is totally fracked up. any woman, or man, who does what she does to john should be sent to dick cheyney's house for slow torture. she becomes despicable...sorry no excuses...cheyney her now! amanda this role was not for you...only a really cold and not too talented actress should have played this role. was anne hathaway unavailable?

what really amazes me is that director lasse hallstrom's last film, the wonderful 'hachi: a dog's tale', went straight to dvd and this story of a pathetic miserable creature saw the light of day or should i say the darkness of a movie theatre.

rent at your own risk. tatum channing and richard jenkins kept me watching. i can't speak for you. this is in the running for my worst of 2010 based solely on the subject.

i've said it before and this is the perfect time to say it again do yourself a favor and rent 'hachi: a dog's tale"

IDIOT OF THE WEEK!!!: Elton John


it's official elton john is the idiot of the week. he beats out a number of idiots including the drugster idiot's wedding he performed at. frackin moron

'The Messenger': ***stars on DVD and BluRay

a good script, a military subject rarely seen yet not directed terribly well, kind of too slow paced, gets this 3 stars. why? well with different actors it may have gotten fewer stars. but for no other reason it gets one star for each of the three amazing performances by ben foster, woody harrelson and a super amazing samantha morton. if you appreciate good acting, great considering samantha morton, rent this film.

'Letters to Juliet' *** Stars


'letters to juliet' is like gelato on a hot summer day. for some it may be too sticky sweet and for others the perfect antidote to escape, even for a short time, a world with iran, irag, rand paul, bp destroying our seas and sarah palin in it. i fall into the latter category. every now and then a romantic dramedy comes along that touches the heart. this is one of them.

the almost always bequiling amanda seyfried charms as sophie the heroine of the piece. she once again holds her own acting opposite greatness. in this case it's vanessa redgrave. a couple of years ago she also played another sophie opposite meryl streep. playing opposite greatness seems to make her better where lesser actresses would fall flat. it's also kind of interesting she played a character named sophie opposite both of them. keep this name in mind amand for future roles as it works for you.

vanessa is wonderful as claire the character in search of her long lost soulmate. miss redgrave, much as julie christie, proves that aging with grace is more beautiful than botox and collagen filled faces. take a lesson ladies before you go under the knife. actors need their faces to act but not your surgeons idea of your face.

the men in the film work well with these two ladies: franco nero as the long lost soulmate, gael garcia bernal as sophie's fiance but most especially christopher egan as charlie the almost, maybe, could be right guy.

i say go see 'letters from juliet'. if you miss it in the theater rent it when it is released. you won't be sorry. if your are sorry i am sorry to say that you have no soul.
