Dear Entertainment Industry:

Not to be all debbie downer, but you are kind of ticking me off. The last 5 things I have viewed/read have been crap. Seriously, I am ticked. The last 5 things:

This was a cross between Liar Liar and crap. And I really liked Liar Liar. Next:

Even Annie was bored. And she watched Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen twice in a row. And she had popcorn. Shame on you.

The third one:
Me=ticked off city after finishing this. Meh.

Stop judging me for reading an SF book. Her other book, The Thief Lord, was amazing. I couldn't even finish it.

And lastly:

Not even a box of Charleston Chews could help this movie. Lame-o.

In conclusion, I am going to have to start watching PBS and reading books of worth. Hmm.

Thank you for not liking Valkyrie with me. I was so bored and about to fall asleep the whole time. We need to choose a good one for wed!

1. I loved Valkyrie. I was on the edge of my seat the whole time -- even though I knew how it ended. It was historically very accurate.
2. The Tale of Despereaux was just too odd for words. The animation was great, but the story kept jumping all over the place.
3. Yes Man was just too silly. and raunchy and dumb. Bob thought it was really funny. I don't even know him any more.
4. Loved Marly & Me (or Otto & Me)
I Tivo'd Tess of the D'bervilles on Masterpiece. Can't wait to watch it.
5. What should I read?

Tsk tsk...don't you know that any movie with Jim Carrey or Tom Cruise in it is going to be awful? Sorry, but it is the truth. We missed you at the parade!

In conclusion...lets go watch twilight five thousand more times. I NEEEEEEEEEED it!

Emily, I can't believe you didn't like valkyrie. I totally loved it. I guess some people thought it was slow. It was no Band of Brothers, but totally entertained, and I totally forgot it was Tom Cruise. He just seemed different.

Erica said...

Emily - two words, Mad Men. Just watch it so I can shut up about it. Also, Biggest Loser, I maybe cry multiple times everytime I watch that show.

for a real fun time, borrow my season one of "chuck"! a no brainer, perhaps, but still quite entertaining! and he's the cutest nerd i know...

Good thing I read this post because I was seriously considering spending money on Valkyrie. My only draw back was Tom Cruise, so thanks for confirming my doubt and saving me 10 bucks. Love your posts; you girls make me laugh.

I Know why are movies stinking lately?
the tale of desperaux was all over the place,

yes man wasn't funny,(stupid humor)

Ok, Nights in Rodanthe was good, but, in the book, the wrong person dies. hum, I wonder why they do this.
then Jenny commented about Wicked, being so nasty. YIKES!
Now my other friend says Marley in me in the book ends wrong and not like the sad movie.

I love going to the movies though.
I heard Bride Wars was good.
I can't wait to see, last chance harvey coming out this week and then of coarse, Doubt, I heard is good plus Duplicity in March with Julia Roberts.

take care and hope something comes around good enough for the $$$ to see.
