I was down from Santa Barbara, visiting my folks. It was a family outing to Edwards El Toro, and the prologue was dinner at the chinese place right next door. The movie was disappointing, as expected (I know, contradiction in terms). That night I woke my parents to take me to the emergency room, thinking I had appendicitis. Turns out it was my first ever episode of indigestion. Oops, sorry Mom and Dad. Good prep for a recording session, though.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, yeah, first movie was pretty good; the rest were nose-on-the-face formula snoozers, the kind you can't sleep through for the explosions and screeching tires. I pondered why they designed theater seat backs with that painful vertical molded ridge dead center where your head rests. I stared at the red velvet curtains and grappled with my convulsing abdomen, but I do seem to remember some painfully obvious setup with a nailgun, and some very prominent product placement for Subway. Maybe it was the Joe Pesci "they f*** you at the drive through" bit. Small, but feisty!<BR/><BR/>Anyhoo, nice review. Once again taking "classic" on unexpected excursions into the unknown, with 'safe return doubtful' (as my hero Ernest Shackleton once placed in a want ad).Swamptoothhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12867860809679648093noreply@blogger.com
