Movies
I've come to the conclusion that I'm not much of a movie fan any more. Sure, I enjoy an entertaining flick as much as the next guy. However, I have found that I can no longer watch than 2 movies a weekend. Maybe I've always been like that, but I know several people that seem capable of watching movies all day long. I just can't do it. It's not interactive enough. Video games have spoiled me good.
I hit my quota for the week tonight. Just got back from "A Series of Unfortunate Events". Pretty good. I was amused. We saw "Ocean's 12" last night. Also good, but in a very different way. Obviously. Movies I saw this year that I thought were really great:
Oh well. I think the banana bread that Erika and I are making is almost done. Time to go sample.

- The Incredibles (probably my favorite of the year)
- Spider-Man 2
- Shaun of the Dead
- Farenheit 911
- The Returner (from 2002, but it's awesome!)
- Hero
- Win A Date With Tad Hamilton
- Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
- Hellboy (fun, but the ending was anti-climactic)
- Shrek 2
- Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (go Emma Watson!)
- Around the World in 80 Days
- Resident Evil: Apocalypse
- Alien Vs Predator
