Nightmare Before Christmas 3D & Desktops [updated]

They’re back, Jack Skellington, Sally, Dr. Finklestein, Oogie Boogie, Zero and the whole Nightmare Before Christmas gang. This time, in digital 3D! Disney is re-releasing the movie in select theaters across the country on October 20th 2007. I haven’t found out where it’s playing in Minneapolis yet, but, if it is, I’ll be there! If […]

Accepted : A Great Comedy

Yesterday we needed to kill some time as we had a few hours between a dress rehearsal and a rehearsal dinner. We decided to go to a movie and didn’t have to many choices that fit out schedule, well really just one; Accepted. It lookd interesting so we checked it out. Much to our surprise, […]

Hail Covers the Ground Like Snow

It’s kind of hard to see, but this was taken on our camera phone in Cologne Minnesota today. The white areas are hail. Piles of hail. Yards were covered, roofs were covered and this intersection had a foot of hail piled up. We had driven though part of this storm with zero visibility from heavy […]

Poseidon at the IMAX

On Saturday we checked out Poseidon, not just at the movie theater but at the IMAX. IMAX movies are presented on a 3 story tall screen with a six-channel digital sound system that can’t be found anywhere else. It uses film which is 10x larger than standard movie theaters to bring incredible sharpness and clarity […]

Brokeback Mountain is Horrible

We just finished watching Brokeback Mountain and it’s one of the worst movies I’ve ever seen. I can get over the gay love story but what I can’t get over is it’s a SLOW movie that goes nowhere. Ten minutes into the movie and not one word was spoken. And it never picks up. We […]

iPod Hi-Fi Unveiled!

At Apple’s special even today they updated the Mac Mini and unveiled the iPod Hi-Fi. The iPod Hi-Fi is not a new iPod but rather a home stereo system. Basically it’s a big set of speakers. 😉 No radio or CD player (that’s so 2000) just great sound (surround sound) in a simplistic design with […]

Romantic Comedy. With Zombies.

If you haven’t seen Shaun of the Dead [iTunes] I highly recommend it. It’s one of my favorite movies! It’s a parody of Dawn of the Dead; only this time, they added a love story and some comedy. It’s very funny as two unlikely, and lazy, heroes have to try and survive as their town […]

A New Day for Disney

Today begins a new day at Disney. Robert Iger takes over for Michael Eisner as CEO. Michael Eisner has been under great criticism for the way he has dealt with the company in the past years. From sequels to over promotion and the end of hand drawn cartoon movies, I think that Eisner was focused […]

Sin City is Stupid

We watched Sin City last night and were very disappointed. Christi and I were both really excited to see it. Sure it looked cool, but the movie sucked. We were not impressed at all. Just a bunch of people violently killing other people and smoking. I didn’t get it. Very big let down. Glad I […]
