Summer Movie List:

Well, it's been a productive summer, but it officially ends tomorrow with the first day of class for my 2L year. So, here is what I have accomplished this summer, and my thoughts:

Movies:

• Superbad: If you like vulgar, raunchy, sophomoric humor and penis jokes (and who doesn't?), this is the best movie ever.
• Stardust: Perhaps I can't be objective since the book is one of my favorites. I recommend reading the book then seeing the movie.
  
• The Simpsons Movie: It really was like watching a good, long episode of "The Simpsons."
  
• The Invasion: Rental.
• Hairspray: High energy, very entertaining, even if it cut one of my favorite songs.
• Waitress: Good movie, but the doctor was lame. I did love Matlock, though.
  
• Sicko: Good conversation-starter, does make you think about our health care system, but it does misrepresent aspects of other "better" health care systems.
• Spiderman 3: Better than what I was expecting.
• Pirates 3: Way more complicated than necessary, but I do love me some pirates.
• Paris je t'aime: Great directors, fantastic actors, range of emotions; I loved it. Although I don't think I'll ever understand the hairdresser sequence.
  
• Music and lyrics: I want an hour and a half of my life back.
• The Good Shepherd: I want three hours of my life back.
