Theater Releases for November 21st, 2008
Hey all. It’s yet another slow week. Then again, if you’re really sitting there, waiting to see what movies are coming out this weekend, you need to get a hobby. I mean, have you really already seen everything else that’s showing? Geez…go outside. Get some fresh air. Movies aren’t that important.
Um, anyway…
Twilight
Um…does anyone not know what this is? It’s only the biggest tween publishing craze ever to not have a boy wizard named Harry in it. If I remember right, I think the plot goes something like this: First, all the vampires that are walking through the valley most west down Ventura Blvd. Then, all the bad boys are standing in the shadows, and all the good girls are at home with broken hearts. AND NOW I’M FREEEEEEEEEE — ! FREE FALLLLLIN’!!!! …um, yeah.
Recommended if you always wished Buffy would get together with Angel. Or Spike. Or any other vampire that she may or may not have had a thing with.
Bolt – 
Dog that doesn’t have superpowers but thinks he does saves the day. This is the first animated Disney movie to be made since Pixar took over their board of directors. So expectations aren’t necessarily high…but I think people are hoping it won’t entirely suck. The trailer that played before WALL-E was kinda funny. Expect to see me in line, unless I have something better to do.
Recommended if you liked Chicken Little, Meet the Robinsons or Home on the Range

“Movies aren’t that important.”
That’s almost… not funny.
“So expectations aren’t necessarily high…but I think people are hoping it won’t entirely suck.”
Apparently it’s pretty good. I haven’t seen it yet, but I’m already in love with the hamster…
“HE HE HE HE HEEE! i’ll get my ball…”

I am kinda digging the hamster myself.

Nice article about Bolt in last week’s Sunday NYT got me interested.

Thanks for that link, Daniel – it is a great article. I love hearing how Lasseter is kicking the animation studio in the pants and making them get back to basics. I also watched a few clips of Bolt that they have available online – it doesn’t look revolutionary, but it does look like a lot of fun. Fingers crossed it does well for Disney. I’d like to see them back on top again.

Sure. If I haven’t already recommended it ad nauseum at different places, here’s one more urgent suggestion that anybody interested in Pixar (or story’s like Lasseter’s) see “The Pixar Story”.

I always wished Buffy would hook up with Simon from 7th Heaven.
