I haven't been too the situation of the couple but I laud the fact that Apatow is pulling a lighter and different take on what could've been melodramatic and overbearing.

If you want to catch Bergman's film, last chance is this Sunday at 4pm. <BR/><BR/>Lust, Caution... It will probably be better than the gay cowboy film (it has Tony Leung)... I'll check it out, I guess.Oggs Cruzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03041599863258946384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31058461.post-37478372964384422632007-10-26T03:27:00.000+08:002007-10-26T03:27:00.000+08:00Holy shit it's in 35mm?

I've read from Jessica Zafra's blog that 'The Umbrellas of Cherbourg' was shown using a dvd copy of the film.<BR/><BR/>But noooow... Wait, yeah. I'll go there. Tomorrow! Oh no, wait. We have a high school movie marathon (Jawbreaker, Idle Hands, Can't Hardly Wait, you know...) The day after tomorrow, then!<BR/><BR/>Oh shit. Lust, Caution previews tomorrow! And it's uncut! YEAH!

First, it's free. Second, most of the films are better than what's currently showing in theaters. Third, Fanny and Alexander in 35mm, you'll lose the youth out of your body for about a week, fun times!<BR/><BR/>Dodo, yeah, bum for the mean time. I'm scared of work and the real life so I'm prolonging it until my mom starts strangling me to apply for a job. Knocked Up is a comedy for everyone which makes me wonder why it isn't earning money here. I saw it in Galleria and there were around 20 in the theater.<BR/><BR/>Joseph, Leslie is really hot which makes her neurotic comments on how old and ugly she's looking all the funnier.Oggs Cruzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03041599863258946384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31058461.post-65000848890863077622007-10-25T23:17:00.000+08:002007-10-25T23:17:00.000+08:00Are you officially living the "bum life" now, oggs...Are you officially living the "bum life" now, oggs?

Not on...I'm so completely in love with Leslie Mann. Not only is she brilliant here, but the timing of her delivery is what makes great comedy. And who could forget her scene-stealing few minutes in "The 40 Year Old Virgin" as the drunk girl who drives Steve Carrell home. Comedy usually isn't my cup 'o' tea, but Apatow makes it work.Joe Bakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10160822944514723178noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31058461.post-51007035469830078362007-10-25T00:55:00.000+08:002007-10-25T00:55:00.000+08:00Oprah and Ellen, respectively.

If I'm gonna watch a woman talk to a bunch of boring people, I'd rather have her pretty, with two bountiful knockers, and nice legs (definitely not one with weight problems and a huge man-voice, and a lesbian with no dancing talent but decides to do so everytime she's on air). I go for the ex-model who tries so hard to be relevant, it's hilarious... and to segue to Knocked Up, yes that movie is hilarious.Oggs Cruzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03041599863258946384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31058461.post-25036020949379363352007-10-24T00:31:00.000+08:002007-10-24T00:31:00.000+08:00Wow Tyra Banks!

But, it's funny when you watch her in her dramatic moments. <BR/><BR/>Like there's this one time when fat pictures of her went out in the magazines. Then she walked on stage in her underwear just to prove that she's not fat. I mean, who does that? Sobrang defensive niya. <BR/><BR/>Anyway, yeah. The cast was likable, though sometimes, medyo nakakainis sila Jonah Hill. Ang bastos eh. Pero it was funny.
