Movie Update...

Firefly (TV series, 2002)

Sample quote from Captain Mal Reynolds: "It's my estimation that every man ever got a statue made of him was one kind of a son of a bitch or another."

By the way, I did not watch every episode of this series. I watched about four episodes.

Movie Update...

Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band's London Calling Live In Hyde Park (2010).

Best tracks: "Racing In The Street" and "Jungleland."

Movie Update...

Strange Brew (1983)

I read that this film is supposed to be based on Hamlet.

Movie Update...

Bob Dylan's Unplugged (1995)

The best songs on this DVD are "Rainy Day Women #12 and 35" and "Dignity."

Movie Update...

Imagine (1988)

This is the classic video biography of John Lennon. (I watched it on VHS.)

Movie Update...

The Road (2009)

This movie might give you nightmares.

Movie Update...

Jonestown: The Life And Death Of Peoples Temple (2007)

This video has haunting interviews with survivors of the Jonestown mass suicide.

Movie Update...

Big Fan (2009)

I give four out of five stars to this movie.

Movie Update...

Weary Blues From Waitin' DVD (2010)

This documentary covers the years of 1966 through 1978 in Dylan's career. The best parts of this DVD are the interviews with a couple of the musicians that played on Blood On The Tracks.

Music and Movie Update...

U2: Live, Under A Blood Red Sky (CD/DVD)

Recently, the CD and DVD were re-released as a combination CD/DVD package. I borrowed the re-release combination CD/DVD from the local library and I have to say that the CD and DVD hold up pretty well. I had not watched the video release since about 1990 and I still liked it. Of course, the DVD has its turgid moments, but it was 1983 and Bono is the lead singer, so what do you expect?

Anyway, "Electric Co." still is my favorite song on the CD side of the equation.

Movie Update...

The Messenger (2009)

There is plenty of comedy relief in what could have been a very dark movie. I give 4 1/2 (out of five) stars to The Messenger.

Movie Update...

I watched this movie a couple of nights ago after I borrowed it from the local library.

I hope that this post does not get me placed on the TSA "Watch List." If you don't know what I'm talking about, then you should watch this movie.
