The 23rd Street Clearview Cinemas is doing "A Tribute to the 80s" and this Thursday, they are showing The Breakfast Club. It's only $6.50, and it seems like it would be super fun to go. Especially since somebody (::coughcoughfeirancough::) has never seen the movie.

Anyone else game?

Ooh, and, August 30th they're showing Mannequin! Guilty 80s pleasure! How can you resist? Show times for all the movies are at 7 or 10 pm leaving time to either grab a nice dinner aforehand or do so after (since none of these seem to last longer than an hour and a half). Come on, I bet y'all really want to come!

Speaking of the 80s, I finally saw Transformers tonight, and I'm sorry to say that it was a deeply stupid movie... and kind of boring. I don't know how you could sit through it twice! :(

It's totally stupid! And overlong! But it still had transforming robots, and really, that was my threshhold for enjoying the movie.

That's true. It did have transforming robots. I can't argue with that. There were a few good moments in the movie, but alas, the transforming robots didn't satisfy me.

In other news, I adored Charlie and the Chocolate Factory for the most part--fizzled a little near the end for me, but overall Burton got a lot of it right.

I'm just too critical, aren't I?

Let me know if you want to borrow Beauty and the Beast on DVD or The Lion King on...er, laserdisc.

I think I already borrowed the former from you, and I think I can live without the laser disc of the latter and all that playing around with that would entail. Honestly, this is but one more reason to complain about something that sucks.

I'm glad you liked Charlie and the Chocolate Factory! I really loved it and felt that it really touched well on the spirit of the book while completely going in new directions at the same time. Yeah, there was some unnecessary Spielberg-ization there to the end, but otherwise, lots of fun.
