Well, Jim and I have seen a bunch of movies lately. The other night, we watched I Am Legend. Really good. People who have seen it have commented about not liking it because it's Will Smith alone for about an hour and 15 minutes - you know, before anyone besides a mutant shows up. I thought it was really good. I wasn't bored with just him and thought he did a great job. Plus, there were flashbacks to "before the virus" which broke up the supposed monotony. I think people may be a little crazy, anyway.
Then, the other day, while Jim was out working, I watched Atonement. I told Jim later that it was a good thing he didn't watch it with me because he would've wanted to stick a pick in his eye or beat himself over the head with a hammer. It was one majorly depressing movie. Don't get me wrong, it was good and I liked it but it's hard to say that about a movie where nothing good happens to any of the characters. At all. Seriously. Nothing.
Finally, Jim and I watched No Country For Old Men last night. Wow! Crazy. Other than saying I liked it, I don't know what else to say about it. Of course, from the Coen brothers, I knew that I was in for a treat but youza! And that Javier Bardem is one loco mofo (dude gives me the creeps)!!! He deserved the Oscar for that. And I bet if he hadn't gotten it, he would have shot the voters. Or at the very least flipped a coin for their lives. I'm not sure what to think about the ending. I'm still wondering about it. If you've seen it, you know what I mean.Okay, I must go shower. I'm snuggling with J.J. today then heading straight up to Columbus. I'm going to be one tired mofo and Maggie better have a glass of wine all ready for me when I get there. Later.
