Blades of Glory
Fast forward three years later, the two men are both working less glamours jobs. Chazz is a character on a poor-man's Disney on Ice. Jimmy works at an ice stake shop. Jimmy discovers there is a loophole in the rules and he can compete in pairs skating. His coach (Craig T. Nelson) tries to find a lady for Jimmy to perform with but comes up short. Coach has an idea that Chazz would be a suitable replacement. They begin practicing as the first male/male pairs figure skaters.
The raining champion pairs figure skaters are the brother-sister team of Stranz and Fairchild van Waldenberg (Will Arnett & Amy Poehler). They are not happy about this latest development. They get their younger sister Katie (Jenna Fischer) to try and sabotage the pair.
This movie is a cinematic masterpiece. Well compared to last weekend's movies. I will always love Will Ferrell movies. Jon Heder was funny...sort of Napoleon Dynamite on skates, but what are you gonna do? The movie was funny, disgusting and just a good time. The van Waldenberg family are hilarious, espcially because Will Arnett & Amy Poehler are married in real life. Their characters act more like a married couple than brother/sister. I give this movie an 8 out of 10.

Knocked Up
Alison Scott (Katherine Heigl) is a responsible, goal-oriented and career minded individual. She received a promotion at E! where she becomes an on-air anchor. Alison and her sister Debby Leslie Mann go out to a club to celebrate. At the club Alison meets up with Ben Stone (Seth Rogen) a slacker who is living of the $14,000.00 he received when he got hit by a bus. Ben and his friends Jay (Jay Baruchel), Jonah (Jonah Hill), Jason (Jason Segel) & Martin (Martin Starr) are starting up a website. The website is labeling nude scenes with the exact minute of movies. Well they learn that idea has already been taken.
Anyway after a drunken night Alison & Ben wind up sleeping together and with some miscommunication no condom was worn and Alison becomes pregnant. Hilarity ensues. There are Alison's issues, Ben's issues, Debby's issues, Debby's husband Pete's (Paul Rudd) issues.

Children of Men
The movie takes place in England 2027. Apparently the human female becomes infertile starting around 2009. With no human babies being born if we do the math correctly mankind only has less than a century to live. So pretty much people are killing each other and the whole world has gone to crap. The only country to be somewhat manageable is England but there are armed camps, and soldiers patrol the streets, rounding up illegal immigrants into cages.
Theo Faron (Clive Owen) is a former political activist and now a bureaucrat who drinks a lot. He is kidnapped by the Fishes, a terrorist group that supports immigrant rights who are led by his estranged wife Julian Taylor (Julianne Moore). She requests that Theo get the proper papers for an African girl, Kee (Claire-Hope Ashitey) to travel legally. When we meet Kee we find out that she is about 8 months pregnant. She is about to give birth to the first human baby in 18 years.
This movie was one confusing piece of work. I wasn't exactly sure what was going on, they were trying to get the girl to the Human Project but they never really explain what they do...or maybe I was in the bathroom or something and missed it. Also they used that single shot camera work. I thought it was the Dunder Mifflin camera crew following Clive Owen. I give this movie a 4 out of 10.
Black Christmas
Black Christmas is a remake of a 1974 movie of the same name staring Olivia Hussey & Margot Kidder. The movie is about a the Alpha Kappa Gamma sorority house and some of the sisters that stayed for Christmas. With any scary movie you always have that Drew Barrymore type killing at the beginning that usually sets the tone for the entire movie.
We learn that the sorority house was originally Billy Lenz's (Robert Mann) house and the movie flashes back to 1970 when Billy was a baby. Billy was born with a liver disorder that makes his skin yellow. His father loves him regardless but his mother is disappointed and wants nothing to do with him. Throughout the movie there are these flashbacks to Billy's life and about how screwed up he became. Present day Billy is in a mental institution and breaks out so he can be home for Christmas.
Eventually the girls at the house get picked off one by one. We soon realize that Billy has an accomplice his "sister" Agnes. Billy & Agnes also have an obsession with eye balls so when they killed someone they ripped their eye balls out and eat them. That is just gross.
I was not impressed by this movie at all. I didn't think there was much suspense it was just killing after killing in present time & flashbacks. I have never seen the 1974 version but I have a felling that it wasn't as gory as this present day disaster. I give this movie 3 out of 10.

Farce of the Penguins
Samuel L. Jackson is the narrator about a group of male penguins that travel 70 miles back to the female penguins to mate. The two main penguins Jimmy (Lewis Black) & Carl (Bob Saget) just complain about how insecure they are about finding a mate this year. They run into Marcus (Tracy Morgan) who is the crack-head penguin. They also meet up with Steve the Owl (Jonathan Katz) who gives the penguins philosophical advise and I think maybe smoking crack. Are there even owls in Antarctica?
Meanwhile the ladies are gathering together and friends Melissa (Christina Applegate) & Vicky (Mo'Nique) pretty much girl-talk the entire movie. They hate Ester (Drea de Matteo) because she is a slut. Eventually the male penguins make it to the females and the miracle of life begins.
I was sort of disappointed in the movie. I guess I thought it would be funnier. There are a lot of famous voices so it was fun trying to figure them out. This would have been a lot funnier as a 10 minute sketch than an 88 minute movie. I give this movie 2 out of 10.

Freedom Writers
Erin Gruwell (Hilary Swank) is a first year teacher who is bright eyed and eager to change these kids lives. The first day of class is a rude awakening for Erin because she discovers these kids don't care about learning. After a few weeks of no progress with the students she decides to begin a debate about racism after a student draws a picture of another student with big lips as compares that with the Nazis' caricatures of Jews with big noses.
Erin realizes these kids need to write their feelings and worries down and requests them to begin keeping a diary. She said that she would only read them if they wanted her to and the first day her cupboard was fill with their journals. Erin began reading them wants to incorporate books and discussions the students can identify with.
One of the books the students read is The Diary of Anne Frank, and money is raised to have Miep Gies come over to talk about the Holocaust. Erin had to purchase these books with her own money because the school did not want to support these students. She takes on two other jobs to help pay for all the activities she wants to do with the students. As a result of all the time she spends away from her husband, Scott (Patrick Dempsey) they end up getting a divorce.
The movie is the same-old, same-old. I have already seen the movie at least three times before is some different variation. It was very inspirational, of course and I had warm fuzzies afterwards. The only problem was that the Erin character I felt was too good, too saintly. I give this movie a 5.5 out of 10.

Notes on a Scandal
Barbara Covett (Judi Dench) is a spinster that teaches history in a school in England. Barbara's only relationship is her diary which she religiously completes every night. She is not well liked at school by both students and the other teachers but is so desperate for friends.
The start of the new school year brings a new art teacher, Sheba Hart (Cate Blanchett). She is rather innocent and very overwhelmed by her responsibilities of handling her teenage students. There is a case in which two males students are wrestling around in her classroom like it is WWE Raw. Barbara intervenes and Sheba is grateful and they begin their friendship.
Barbara learns that Sheba is married to a much older man and two children, a boy with Down's Syndrome, and a girl. Sheba constantly mentions to Barbara about how unhappy she is with her life and it is not what Sheba planned for her future.
One evening at a school function Barbara goes looking for a missing Sheba and finds Sheba with her top off with 15-year-old Steven Connolly (Andrew Simpson). Barbara confronts Sheba and Sheba explains the affair began in after-school sessions and when she learned that his father is abusive and that his mother is dying from kidney failure. Well Barbara being creepy as she is decides this is what she needs to cement this relationship with Sheba. She becomes more possesive and weird.
Throughout the movie Barbara becomes very sociopathic, resorting to blackmail on several occasions. I think she may have fallen in love with Sheba but the movie never comes right out and say if Barbara's character is a lesbian. I tell ya what that Judi Dench is one heck of an actress. The movie itself was very intense and saucy. I give this movie a 7 out of 10.
Everyone loves a good catfight!
Flags Of Our Fathers
The movie begins with James Bradley (Thomas McCarthy) wanting to know more information about his father John "Doc" Bradley, (Ryan Phillippe) and his service in World War II. James knew that his father was the sailor that help raised the American flag in that famous photograph. When Doc was alive he refused to speak or answer questions about the war. It was only when Doc passed away that James discovered looking through Doc's old things that his father was a hero and found Doc's Navy Cross for valor.
James started seeking out veterans of Iwo Jima and finding more information about the other five men in the photograph. The five other men in the photograph were Marine Sergeant Mike Strank (Barry Pepper) from Western Pennsylvania, Marine Corporal Harlon Block (Benjamin Walker) from South Texas, Marine Private First Class Ira Hayes (Adam Beach) an Arizona Native American, Marine Private First Class Franklin Sousley (Joseph Cross) from Kentucky, and Marine Private First Class Rene Gagnon (Jesse Bradford) of New Hampshire.
James learned quickly that the photograph was very misleading to the public. The flag was actually the second flag that was placed on the mountain and it was placed on the mountain on the 5th day of a 35 day battle. James also learned that half of the men shown in the photograph died on Iwo Jima. The only survivors were Doc Bradley, Ira Hayes & Rene Gagnon. The photo that was taken by Joe Rosenthal and it could provide the armed forces with the push they needed to get through the rest of the war. Once the parties were identified Hayes, Gagnon and Doc were brought back to the States on a tour to promote the war. There was some confusion in the beginning on who actually the men were in the photograph because we can not seen any of there faces. Sgt. Hank Hansen was originally thought to be one of the men in the photograph. Hansen died on Iwo Jima and he was in the group that raised the first flag. Navy Secretary James Forrestal requested that the flag be sent to Washington as a souvenir so the first flag was taken down. Hank's mother was invited to all the celebrations and festivities. It wasn't until 18 months later when they acknowledged that it was Harlon Block in the photograph.
This movie was very powerful and very informative. Clint Eastwood wanted to tell the story of the American side of this battle and I thought he did a wonderful job. There were some rather graphic war scenes (not as bad as Saving Private Ryan). There was so much emotion that went into making this film. I was never aware of the implications and demons that the surviving three had to face when they got home. I give this movie an 8 out of 10.

Flyboys
The movie stars one of the worst actors in American cinema today, James Franco as Blaine Rawlings. There were many other young men who also volunteered with Blaine but I can't remember their names or the actors...they all looked the same.
The American boys arrive in France and quickly begin their pilot training. Keep in mind the plane was only invented 13 years prior so even the instructors were still learning. There is one pilot from the original group that volunteered, Reed Cassidy (Martin Henderson) all of the others died in combat.
Blaine while flying with one of the other pilots their plane runs out of gas and they end up crashing and Blaine is nurse back to health by Lucienne (Jennifer Decker). They end up falling in love and he helps her family escape the Germans.
The movie's fight sequences (if you ignore the historical inaccuracies) are great! They were action packed and if it meant that James Franco didn't have to speak, even better! I was confused because they really didn't focus on the other pilots so when they were in combat I wasn't sure who was killed except maybe two. Now don't be expecting a plot..it is mostly a combat movie I give this movie a 5 out of 10 just based on the action.
I am currently taking bets on how long this will last.

The Good Shepherd
The movie flashes back to 1939, Edward Wilson is attending Yale and has just become a new member of the Skull and Bones secret society. (For more information on that please watch the movie The Skulls, which is based on this secret society). As one of the initiation rights the new member has to tell the rest of the group a secret. Edward Wilson's secret is that when he was six years old his father committed suicide and left a note. A young Edward found the note and did not show it to anyone and has not read the note to this day. Edward Wilson is approached by FBI Agent Sam Murach (Alec Baldwin) and at Murach request he wants Wilson to spy on one of his professors who he believes is a Nazi spy.
The movie then jumps to the Skull and Bones retreat (for being a secret society they have an annual retreat, I guess they aren't so secret) in 1940. Wilson meets General Bill Sullivan ( Robert De Niro) and asks him if he would like to be part of Office of Strategic Services. Wilson accepts and Sullivan says he will be getting his orders soon. At the retreat Edward Wilson is seduced by Margaret 'Clover' Russel (Angelina Jolie) and they end up consummating the relationship in the dirt next to the campfire (I bet that is show Angelina took Brad away from Jennifer). Edward at the time was dating and in love with a deaf girl Laura (Tammy Blanchard) but you know how these things go. Edward finds out that Clover is pregnant so he has to marry her. Their wedding reception is when he gets his orders to go to London in a week.
When Edward arrives in London he discovers that his professor (Michael Gambon) was actually British intelligence and Edward actually destroyed two years of work for ratting him out to the FBI (whoops, my bad).
The movie then jumps ahead to Berlin 1945 and the Allies and Soviets are trying to bargain and obtain as many Nazi scientist they can get their hands on. Edwards meets his Soviet counterpart with the code name "Ulysses" (Oleg Shtefanko) Edward has a German interpreter with him for all these interviews. She appears to be deaf and since he has a fetish for the deaf he goes back to her place and they consummate their relationship. Edward learns that the hearing aid is actually a spy recorder and well, he has that interpreter taken care of (Tony Soprano style).
Edward finally returns to the United States over being gone for six years. Yeah, Edward & Clover had been married for a week and he was gone. His son's name is Edward Jr. and he has never met his father. During his hiatus he is approached by Sullivan to form what is now called the CIA.
The movie jumps to Edward Jr (Eddie Redmayne) is now at Yale and wants to join the CIA and his mother is not happy with his decision. At the Skull and Bones retreat a few years later Edward Jr. overhears Edward and his associates discuss the upcoming Bay of Pigs invasion.
The Bay of Pigs invasion fails and the CIA begins to analyze the tape & photos that were dropped off at Edwards house in the beginning of the movie. Through clues in the photos and sound they are able to determine the location as the Congo. When Edward arrives in the Congo he discovers that it is his son in the recording and photographs. He was giving classified information to his lover who turned out to be a Soviet spy. (Whoops, my bad).
Now Edward has to deal with the fall-out and complications of Edward Jr.'s actions.
I thought the movie was pretty good. The movie is long though (just short of 3 hours) but it held my attention. Angelina was not in the movie for a long time so that helped too. Matt Damon was about in every scene. I give this movie a 7 out of 10.

Rehab---Kerry Katona Style
For Your Consideration
Catherine O'Hara plays actress Marilyn Hack who's character is dying in the movie, Home for Purim. Harry Shearer plays actor Victor Allan Miller who the husband of the Marilyn Hack's character in Home for Purim. Parker Posey plays actress Callie Webb who is the daughter in Home for Purim who just came out to her dying mother that she is a lesbian. Christopher Moynihan plays actor Brian Chubb who is the son in Home for Purim. Christopher Guest plays, Jay Berman who is the director for Home for Purim.
For Your Consideration revolved around the three actors, Marilyn, Victor & Callie and their Oscar buzz for their individual performance for Home for Purim and who they handle it as individuals. Marylin whose best known work is being a blind prostitute in a movie in the late 1980s says she doesn't care about the award. Victor whose previous work includes dressing up as a hot dog in commercial. Callie a newcomer is overwhelmed and decides to break up with her boyfriend (Brian Chubb) for not being supportive.
With all the Oscar buzz the studio executives swoop in an request that the movie needs changes to the script for being "too Jewish." We learn through a fictional entertainment show where Marilyn is being interviewed that the movie is now called Home for Thanksgiving. That holiday is non-denominational and less threatening. Fortunately for the studio executives they do not ruin the movie and the Oscar buzz continues.
I thought the movie was decent. It seem there were a lot of inside jokes that maybe only the Hollywood kind would get. There are some funny parts with the fictional entertainment show trying to make the older people look "cool." It is definitly a satire on the entire film industry. I give this movie a 6 out of 10.

I would so ask for my money back
In England one of the kids that appeared on Supernanny burned up his house with a lighter and curtains. The kid was THREE YEARS OLD! That is hard-core. This kid has no hope...they should just charge him as an adult and let him spend 10-12 years hard time. Actually you know what, the kid should be sent to Britney Spears then he would appreciate his parents more. (Source)
Britney's Got her CA Driver's License Ya'll!!!

Word of the Day
A euphemism for a [homosexual], especially one who is [closeted]. This is coined from the transparent defense of Senator Larry Craig (R-Idaho), to charges of disorderly conduct, stemming from his apparent [solicitation] of an undercover officer, underneath the partition of a restroom stall.
Prior to pleading guilty, Sen. Craig attempted to explain his behavior by claiming that his shoe touched the officer's underneath the partition because he had a "wide stance", when going to the bathroom.
Genevieve is really crushing hard on the varsity QB. Someone should tell her that the dude has a wide stance.
