Movie Review



Recommended Posts

If you haven't seen The Devil Wears Prada and need a good laugh, ante up for the matinee at least and check this one out.

Meryl Streep is an absolute RIOT - much, much better than her last comedy (Prime).

I loved that movie....Mr. Yoda saw it and seemed to like it enough; though I'm sure he wouldn't rank it in his top fave list!

There are a few lines from the movie that he still likes to quote though....cracks us up!

besides...it's good for your DH to see some chick flicks once in a while....it's payback for all those dull stupid movies they like to take us to!! LOL..

but...no, I don't really consider this movie a chick flick.

i dont think it's a guy movie, rather get a few of your girlfriends together, go see it and chat it up over dinner and drinks afterward! even my 74 yr old mom loved it!

I agree...probably not a guy movie - no car chases, no dynamite, no blood/gore, no sex, no nudity, no toilet humor. And it's all about clothes. Definitely not a guy movie.

If you've ever worked for a Nazi, though, this is your kind of movie. I have (worked for a Nazi), only she wasn't nearly as well dressed (or as pithy) as Meryl Streep. You know the Judge Judy show? You know how smug she is....how nasty and over-bearing and how she loves putting people down? Well, my ex-boss was a Gentile Judge Judy - even looked like her.

I guess Mr. Yoda is not the "typical" male then...since he enjoyed the movie. He must be a little more "advanced" than most males!! Not all guys *ducking the things being thrown at me* are mindless voids that only enjoy car chases and shooting scenes!

I enjoyed this movie too. Of course, when we pick movies, my husband usually takes me to chick flicks, while I usually pick action/adventure

We went to see a movie a few weeks ago, DH went to buy tickets (I thought we were seeing Click) and he comes back with the Lake House (we never see "mushy" movies together)......because he thought it would be good. Turns out he loved the movie, I didn't! We did see Click and it was pretty good. My daughter and I were going to go see Prada tomorrow, but it isn't showing so we'll be seeing John Tucker Must Die (my daughter is 15).

Oh, don't get me wrong....tho Mr. Yoda may be more evolved and enlightend than most men (THANK GOD!!) BUT he still loves his X-box games and Spiderman....but then again, that's what makes him him and why I love him so!!!!

If anyone has an odd sense of humor, then I highly recommend "Strangers With Candy". I do not recommend it if you are easily offended...because, well, it could easily offend.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
