Movie Reviews Reviewed

First, I can plead absolute ignorance. We don't see many movies at theatres. We don't see many movies at all. Typically, when they announce the Oscar nominees , we draw a blank.

' Salmon Fishing in the Yemen ' received a Golden Globe nomination. In the TorStar, this choice was laughed at. Nice movie but not worthy of an award. 
Horse-hockey as they say when they want to swear but can't.
#1 I'm in deep like w/ Emily Blunt
#2 I really think EB is cuter than a bug's bumper.
#3 Non-violent , pleasant movies are a rarity
In ' SFitY ' 1 gun is fired there are no hits. 'SFitY ' promotes a balanced view of the mid-East / West relations. I'm not sure the latter is really possible but I think it does.
Any movie that can show a progressive humanitarian look at the Mid-East has to be lauded. The world needs more lateral and open minded thinking.
Besides, I've got a crush on Emily Blunt. Oh, yeah, Ewan McGregor is in the movie too.
This morning, the movie review girl was gushing over Quentin Tarrantino and his new release ' Django ... '. I don't get it.
Karen Gordon was explaining how quirky and original and funny QT is.
I don't go to see movies b/c of the director and certainly not him.
Judge Apatow ( director again ) released a movie  ' something 40, turning ??? '
Again, KG is all over how pithy and relevant this director is.

Recommends: On YouTube, I found a prequel to ' Lord of the Rings '
' Born of Hope ' is a on line release only, never to be a movie. ' BoH' 
is not a high price production but does a reasonable job a telling the the story of the Dunedain ( Men of the West ). This period would represent Arador ? ( father to Arathorn, father to Aragorn ) and the battle of Men against the Orcs and Sauron. 
I think you need to be a deeply dedicated Tolkien fan and very indulgent to enjoy this video. I put it out there anyway.

Weather boy is fully dressed w/ umbrella. We are reading 39 F things. All is damp out there.

We are closing in on Xmas, things have seemed to have slowed down here. We are waiting, sort of a lull. Events will heat up shortly.

The monkey lady didn't get her  ' baby ' back. She has to wait until the new year. Really its big news here. This type of story is for slow news days.
