Yes. Very much worth renting.

I saw that about a month ago. I agree, it wasn't very good.

But I appreciate Agulara much more now. She sure has a voice. (She grew up near here.) And it's good that Cher is able to earn a living.

Those were the only points about the movie.

Yes. It's totally worth it.

This is what I don't get. Let's put worth of life aside. Just pretend that individual people's lives don't matter for the greater good.

Gettings those scientists to the United States would have been for the greater good because I'm sure some of them escaped to places like Iran.

But the reality is that it wasn't ever about the greater good of mankind. It was about protecting the administration.

They wanted the scientists to die to silence that there weren't WMDs

Dell.
It'll be three years old this december.
Its warranty expired 5 months ago.

And the ONLY place that stays open that late is walmart and you have to order specialty items like laptop chargers.

It's absolutely terrible. Don't bother, especially if you like Depp. He takes a backseat to Angelina in this movie.

It's more of Jolie eye candy movie than anything else. She's walking around in some great couture. Deep looks frumpy the entire time.

There is zero chemistry between them. The storyline is stupid. It's just weird action fluff.

I like Depp and Jolie, that's why I watched it, but putting them together in a movie was a huge casting mistake.

Someone like Depp shouldn't be a put lower than Jolie. They should have starred equally in a movie together.

Politics has become a very dirty business. I'm not sure if it's always been that way, I suspect so. It's very hard to make informed decisions anymore as politicians seem to be playing some sort of game, and their goals bear little resemblance to what I am voting for them to do.

I have heard it's a total lemon, but I haven't seen it.

Haven't seen it but haven't heard good things.

Pretty weather here so far this morning.

Hope everyone in the path of the storms yesterday/last night is OK. Some nasty nasty stuff.

DS went to the ball game last night, came home, took a nap then went to afterprom then crashed at a friend's house. Don't expect to see him until this afternoon. Hope he had a good time. He was in a good mood when he came home because his team won and he was able to pick up a couple autographs at batting practice before the game.

I think I'll check in here from now on when reordering the movies in the queue! Religulous is now back on the top, which a very good friend of mine has been telling us to see.
