oh fuck it

i was just typing my review of elizabethtown and lost it, dammit. well anyway, i basically said i felt it sucked and i would grade it as a c-. kirsten dunst annoyed me and orlando bloom was cute but ineffectual. ineffective? whatever, didn't work.

so in the last 48 hours i also recently saw:

shaun of the dead. i got a lot of encouragement to see this movie. emphasis on a lot. and i tried, i really did, but i didn't really like it. i'm not a zombie movie fan. i don't like storylines with zombies. i just don't even 'get' the whole zombie thing. it was also a romantic comedy and that part was good. i suppose something 'big' was needed to (SPOILER) reunite shaun and his girlfriend after she (rightly, i believe) dumped his ass. i can see where all the underground hype came from but it just wasn't my type of flick. c.

rumor has it. it stars jennifer aniston - do i have to say anthing else? well, i will. it wasn't horrible but dammit does she have to be 'rachel' in everything? shirley maclaine's character was, at times, funny but unbelievably harsh: "jeff darling...go play with your dick". that line caused some surprised guffaws. well, at least i got to look at mark ruffalo every now and then. c-

me? i'm doing a lot of nothing too important. i've been bad about updating so i'll have to do several back tracks today. right now the focus is checking on apartments. yep, i'm looking to have my first solo living experience. as the oldest of five, i never enjoyed the luxury of my own bedroom when growing up. then i went on to school after school which meant dorm room after dorm room. then shared apartment after shared apartment. i had a brief taste when i worked as a residential director. i don't count it because, sure, it was my own apartment but it was located in a dorm of 150 18 year olds college freshmen. not really the same. so as i'm no longer a student i figured i'll try not to live like one. i'll try. we'll see.
