Three sentence movie reviews: The Wedding Crashers

My favorite part of this movie is the wedding crasher montage at the beginning. My second favorite part of this movie is when Vince Vaughn goes on one of his babbling soliloquies. My third favorite part of this movie was the reveal of who was the original wedding crasher.

Three sentence movie reviews: The Curious Case of Benjamin Button

The length of this movie kept me from seeing it when it was in the theaters, as well as the massive amounts of CGI used on the actors. However, when I actually watched the film, I was not at all distracted by either of those things. It's been out long enough that I completely missed--until the last scene--that the hurricane was Katrina.

Kelly and I do a Portland City Walk

It was cold and rainy the morning Kelly and I planned to do a Portland City Walk. By the time our walk time came around it had stopped raining and the sun was even shining. So out we set. We did the Buckman/Kerns walk which was fun until it started raining and blowing again. Once the pages of the book were soaked, we cut the walk short and headed for home, dry clothes, grilled cheese and a bad movie. But before that?

An odd combo, but one that might come in handy.

Detail of the detail.

Three sentence movie reviews: The Ice Harvest

Despite the presence of John Cusack, this was not a very fun movie. I didn't ever attach to any of the characters, so I didn't much care what happened to any of them. This is one of those movies that I watched so you don't have to.

Three sentence movie reviews: It's a Wonderful Life

Matt had never seen this and while he started the movie heckling, the charms of the holiday staple won him over quickly. By the end, he was a convert. What's the holiday without this movie?

Three sentence movie reviews: Idiocracy

Funny. The story was funny, the actors were funny and the set design was fantastic. This movie was overlooked but you should get into your time machine and head back to 2006 so you can watch this movie.

What should Be capitalized?

I'm quite guilty of this myself, so yes, call me the pot.* However, I would assume that a casino paying a good chunk of money to advertise would employ the services of a copy editor. Why is "Live" capitalized but "bands" is not? Why is nearly every thing in the second half capitalized except "favors?"

*note that all of my pots are blue enamel and my kettle is some sort of silver colored metal. I do have a dutch oven that is black, but for this saying to match my own pots and pans it would have to be "the dutch oven calling the cast iron skillet black."
