Movie update

THEY LIVE (1988)

Another New Cult Canon movie nicely available on Comcast On Demand. Pretty good.

WHERE THE WILD THINGS ARE (2009)

Now this one might be significant because I've probably followed the online buzz on this movie as long as any movie... and now it finally arrived seven years after Spike Jonze's last film Adaption. Heard lots of news that Jonze was getting this just right, and the results were pretty fantastic. When I keep getting annoyed at its limited scale, I have to remind myself that the movie was operating under the parameters of a children's book. In that sense, this was great.

I don't like the rate at which I've been watching movies. Oh well... the miserable winter will keep me indoors soon enough.
