better?

yesterday the wife and i had a rare day off so it was off to the movies. since we still like the actual cinema experience we thought the latest bond pic would be a nice afternoon distraction. unfortunately we quickly realized that the publicity monster is getting much better while the movies are not. (excluding borat)

saw the new christopher guest movie tonight. he goes to a much darker place than in his previous comedies. i think his ensemble improvisations are starting to show their limitations when trying to make the "point" and push plot, but overall i'd still rather see this movie miss the high bar it is reaching for than digest another genre picture geared to sell cars, watches and computers.

if he saw borat again he would hate borat. borat is only good because he shows how stupid middle america really is. however...let's just say i was trying to disguise my accent after i came out of the cinema.

i thought 007 was good but only because i had never seen one and my expectations were REALLY LOW. i saw clips of an old connery one and i thought it was really sexist and horrible. so yeah, it was better than horrible.

i really love the guest films. i didn't know he came out with a new one. i hope it comes out in england, although i doubt it.
