Actually, Deuce, I like the way you review movies, if it's like the movie diary thing you showed me. I looked again at what you emailed me a while back, and it was mostly comments, but without the "extra" stats like ratings, years, if you'd seen it before, etc. (By the way, I think the stats are cool). I tend to NOT write reviews sometimes because I think they need to be big and meaningful, and it's hard to live up to one's own expectations. Anyhow, a short paragraph will likely suffice for 95% of what I want to talk about, even if I do write five paragraphs. But that's just how I am sometimes: wordy.

Anyhow, we watched Get Low tonight. I'd gotten it from Paul for Christmas this past year but we'd not watched it yet. For shame! It was very good. Bill Murray has always been one of my favorite actors, and he was great in this. I've never been much of a fan of Robert Duvall, but he was a good lead in this movie. I won't talk too much about the plot, since you can see it if you want, but it does involve the idea of a living funeral, which I think is a pretty cool idea. I guess on the whole I'd give the movie a 7 or 8 out of 10.
What have you been watching? Reading? Listening to? I'm hoping we can also talk about other kinds of things going on besides just movies. As you said, it can be a sort of way to talk about what's going on in life, too.
Good to see you here!
