You won't kill me because of some misplaced sense of honor, and I won't kill you because you're just too much fun...




1. So! The Dark Knight. My review:

Amazing. Simply spectacular. It is, in my opinion, the best batman movie up to date. Christian Bale is my favorite batman, Michael Caine is my lover, and Morgan Freeman can be my baby's daddy any day. Heath Ledger gave what I consider to be one of the best theatrical performances I've ever seen. His emotions, expressions, vocal diction, facials and poise were unbelievable. It was truly a masterpiece. His performance is incredibly disturbing (not to me, because I'm mentally ill...but to others), but if you're an actor, I strongly urge you to see this. The only complaint I have is Maggie Gyllenhaal. She's a good actress, but I just don't find her attractive. Maybe that's just me. Anyway, two thumbs up for the new batman movie. And rest in peace Heath Ledger.



2. Mamma Mia!

I loved this movie. Maybe not the best singing in the world, but simply an all around feel-good piece. Amanda Seyfried (also Karen from "Mean Girls") is a very good actress and singer, and Colin Firth, Pierce Brosnan and Stellan Skarsgard are all hot. Plus, Mrs. Weasley (Julie Walters) sings! And she's pretty good.




3. I have decided to patent my signature PMS/Period/Pregnancy/Break-Up/Depression kit. Not that I've been pregnant, but I just have a feeling it would help. Here are the contents:

a. 6-pack of IBC or Jones Cream Soda.
b. Dirty Romance Novel
c. Pint of favorite Ben and Jerry's Ice Cream.
d. Box of Strawberry Fruit-Roll-Ups
e. Tabloid Magazine
f. Reddi-Whip
g. Chick Flick or Old Movie
h. Body pillow
i. Blanket
j. Box of kleenex
k. Cookie dough.
l. Chocolate (lots of it)
m. Teddy bear
n. Mommy

Mix them all together and take as many times a day you need until the crying subsides.
