Well, I am posting again, out of sheer boredom. I am staying at my moms tonight. We have the garage sale early in the AM and I didn't feel like getting up at 6 to drive up to Alpharetta. So, I am missing Shane and missing my apartment. I have Lily and my kitten with me, which is stressing out my mom's dogs. And my siblings are being LOUD.
So, tomorrow night Shane and I have a date night to go see a movie! I am very excited! My mom and siblings also want to go see Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Here is an interesting review from Ebert:
Excerpts from Ebert's review: (http://rogerebert.suntimes.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20050714/REVIEWS/50628001)
"...young Freddie Highmore, who was so good opposite Depp in 'Finding Neverland,' is hopeful and brave and always convincing as Charlie.The problem is that this time, he finds Neverland. Johnny Depp may deny that he had Michael Jackson in mind when he created the look and feel of Willy Wonka, but moviegoers trust their eyes, and when they see Willy opening the doors of the factory to welcome the five little winners, they will be relieved that the kids brought along adult guardians. Depp's Wonka -- his dandy's clothes, his unnaturally pale face, his makeup and lipstick, his hat, his manner -- reminds me inescapably of Jackson."
"...can anyone look at Willy Wonka and not think of Michael Jackson? Consider the reclusive lifestyle, the fetishes of wardrobe and accessories, the elaborate playground built by an adult for the child inside. What's going on here? Bad luck that the movie comes out just as the Jackson trial has finally struggled to a conclusion."
Interesting...well, I will have to check out the movie for myself. My mom is a big fan of Johnny Depp. I liked him in Blow and in Sleepy Hollow, but I wasn't in love with Pirates of the Carribean.
Have a good weekend everyone.
