Movies
Big Love season 2: The parts with Bill fighting with Roman, and buying the other business, got a little tedious, but I still enjoy watching the family dynamics.
Bring It On: In It To Win It: So much ridiculous fun.
Coupling season 3: Not as funny as the first two. I suppose it just got a little repetitive.
Deadwood season 3: Wow, I loved the first 2 seasons, but I cannot get into this season. I might have to send it back and try again later.
Double Happiness: I haven't seen this for years, not since it first came out - Sandra Oh (in one of her first roles) as a young woman in a very traditional Chinese family who falls for an awkward white guy (Callum Keith Rennie - this was the start of my CKR love, way back in 1994). It was still great.
Fucking Amal (Show Me Love): A Swedish movie set in the tiny town of Amal, about teenage outcast Agnes, who is in love with Elin, and a kiss on a dare. Enjoyable.
Jesus Camp: A scary documentary about camps where kids are taught to uphold the evangelical Christian Right (I think that's right). Engrossing.
Juno: There's been a lot of backlash against this movie, but I really liked it, despite some affectations. Ellen Page is awesome, always, and Michael Cera was very sweet. Totally charming.
Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End: Yes, fine, it was bad.
Scrubs season 3: Oh yes, so much fun.
Sex and the City: I feel like it's a little late to even have an opinion on this. But basically, it felt like an extended episode of the show, which was really all I was looking for. I hope they don't make another one, though - even this was a bit of a stretch, because they really had resolved things at the end of the series, and now they're all resolved again.
This Is Wonderland season 1: A quirky Canadian legal drama, revolving around public defenders. A little sad, a little ridiculous and a lot entertaining.
Waitress: I felt like Keri Russell was acting on a different level of realism than the rest of the cast, but I loved the movie to pieces. Although it left me with a desire for pie that still hasn't gone away.
The Wire season 4: Oh my god, this just about killed me. Awesome, and amazing kid actors like I've never seen, but so heartwrenching.
Bring It On: In It To Win It: So much ridiculous fun.
