John and I went to see “Advertureland” this weekend. I spent much of the movie thinking to myself what a good little actor that Michael Cera is, until I got to the closing credits and was forced to confront the fact that the movie did not, in fact, star Michael Cera. So then I spent some time later that afternoon musing about what a good little actor that Jesse Eisenberg is.
(Fun fact: Jesse Eisenberg is currently filming a movie called “Zombieland”. If I was looking at scripts, searching for the perfect movie to serve as follow-up to my breakout hit called “Adventureland”, “Zombieland” seems like an excellent choice.)
I was also relieved to see Kristen Stewart sort of manage to create a character that wasn’t just “Bella Swan works at an amusement park.”
Anyway, “Adventureland”: excellent way to spend a weekend afternoon when it is effing SNOWING. IN APRIL. Get it together, Chicago.
I woke up this morning and heard the weather reports and swore that for a moment I was in the wrong hemisphere!
i CANNOT DEAL WITH THIS CRAP any longer. it’s not as bad here, so i guess i shouldn’t complain, but 30s with FLURRIES is NOT SPRING. rawrrrgrumblebitchbitchgrumble.
I’m sorry about the snow – we were bombarded with torrential rains that canceled – yes, canceled – opening day at Fenway.
Being that sports is like our second religion in these parts, that was a big damn deal.
On the plus side, though, it’s April, so surely, whatever yo do get won’t be around for long
yo = you
