I’m so glad to read that My Big Fat Greek Wedding is likely to overtake the ridiculous Blair Witch Project as the highest-grossing independent film of all time. The former is so much better than the latter. It’s currently at $110M to the Witch’s $140M record. It’s also pretty cool that the movie will become […]

Today is an exciting day here at work. Change is good and there’s plenty on the horizon for me. Officially beginning tomorrow I have a new job and a new title: Web Services Product Manager (Training & Support). I still have the same boss, but we’re both moving into a new organization. We both move […]

Settling In

Still settling into the new place, Jen and I watched Say Anything, the ’80s classic with John Cusack, last night. I’d never seen it before and really enjoyed it. I now own the DVD. The other day I guess I was in an ’80s mood, as I bought that and another classic from the decade […]

Last night Jen and I saw the independent film Cherish, starring the very talented, wry, funny Robin Tunney as Zoe Adler, who is accused of killing a bike cop while driving drunk (though it’s a bit more complicated than that). She is subsequently put on house arrest and the remainder of the movie — filmed […]

Last night Jen and I saw Insomnia – starring Al Pacino, Robin Williams, and Hilary Swank – at the Metreon. (It was actually the second movie this week that we’d seen there; we saw The Bourne Identity Monday night.) It was really good and very tense. Pacino was great, as always. Williams, moving outside his […]

Mulholland Drive Rocks My World

Last night Jen and I watched David Lynch’s Mulholland Drive, the erotic thriller that’s more twisted than Bay Area traffic on a holiday weekend. I absolutely love movies like that. I had a good feeling about this one as soon as the movie started. I hadn’t seen a movie that actually makes you think like […]

Episode II

Last night Jen and I saw Episode II with Ben and Jess at AMC Van Ness. It rocked! Seeing Yoda do battle was definitely one of the coolest parts of the film. He’s like Mr. Miyagi from the Karate Kid series: Old, wise, and calm most of the time, but willing to kick ass when […]
