three new movies that i will look forward to seeing (if when they ever come out in Japan!)
Clerks 2 Yup. they made a sequel. oy. berzerker!
A Prairie Home Companion: I don`t know the radio show itself but it comes highly reccomended by my dad, who does listen. And Robert Altman rarely leads any movie astray.
Charlotte`s Web: a new adaptation of what was arguably one of the best children`s books ever written. also an excellent website. those of you with children of about the right age should read the book to them, too!
i tried to go to a movie yesterday evening with Ulala and so we looked up the Osaka movie listings online. the ONLY thing even remotely palatable on the menu was The DaVinci Code. and to be honest i refuse to pay the equivalent of $20 Canadian to see it. how sad is it that in a city of 9 million people the selection of theatres and of films is so ridiculously poor?! there were a couple good Japanese films listed but, alas, my Japanese is not quite so good yet that i would waste 20 bucks to kind-of-get-it. ah well. in the end we went to a friend`s event dowtown and had a great time, so all is well that ends well, i suppose.
oh there was also a late showing of Mission Impossible 3 but that doesn`t really count as a movie, i don`t think.
Meh.
