But I've never gone to the theatre on four consecutive days! Insanity abound...<BR/><BR/>I share your distaste for slush, which is neither appealing in terms of aesthetic quality or having to shovel it. Bleurgh.<BR/><BR/>Jesse - I would say that you are missing out on the joys of shoveling, but since I seem to be the only one who enjoys doing it, you are just fine where you are.<BR/><BR/>The BBC version of <I>Narnia</I> is too faint in my mind to discuss in-depth, but I remember that my reaction to that adaptation was considerably more enthusiastic than my response to this one. Keep your expectations low...<BR/><BR/>Your <I>Walk the Line</I> review seemed pretty much on the mark. I think I'm only being kind because of Witherspoon, and I think we both share the opinion that she pretty much makes the film. Although not having seen Judi Dench or Felicity Huffman in their bait turns, I also am behind Reese 100%. Well, not if Joan Allen gets nominated. Because if that's the case, I'm pushing her - she is beyond owed.Yaseen Alihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05908587347677660287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19337329.post-1134924253534658332005-12-18T11:44:00.000-05:002005-12-18T11:44:00.000-05:00I've never had more than 48 hour experiences with ...I've never had more than 48 hour experiences with snow-- and it was only because we travelled because we "wanted to spend some time in the snow." Oh, Southern California...<BR/><BR/>I still haven't seen NARNIA, partly because of school and partly because I have a feeling it's not going to live up to the BBC version I loved so much as a child (I can't bear the thought of a computerized Aslan). Still, I'll probably be seeing it sometime this week. Not sure about SYRIANA-- may see it, may not. <BR/><BR/>WALK THE LINE has been an odd case for me. I originally gave it a 5/10 and a negative review, but it has stuck with me, and I have a quite favorable impression of it now, maybe because it made me pull out my Cash songs again. I'm also rather surprised how much Witherspoon's performance stands out in the memory. I was surprised to see has started picking up awards, but very pleased. She may be my favorite actress currently in the race.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19337329.post-1134838581816699172005-12-17T11:56:00.000-05:002005-12-17T11:56:00.000-05:00Wow, three in a row?

Te he he -- we are absolutely insane, and I wouldn't have it any other way.<BR/><BR/>Snow, to me, is very deceitful. I love snow, but only when I don't have to deal with it. Fortunately, in Boston, I don't (yay for apartments in a metropolis!). Now it is the slush that angers me (boo for a metropolis!). Nevertheless, snow neevr fails to excite my aesthetic sensibility and infuriate my body. <BR/><BR/>Why is it that all the beautiful things in this world have to be so cold?Nick M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12566330717380805279noreply@blogger.com
