While Kim and the girls were out of town, I went on a bit of a movie binge, including seeing two movies in a theater in one day (it was a cheap theater, $3.50 per ticket). I watched:
10,000 BC
The 13th Warrior
The Good Shepherd
Tank Girl
Iron Man
Prince Caspian
Matrix Reloaded
Matrix Revolutions
Semi Pro
Yeah, that's a lot of movies, and I really enjoyed them all. As I've mentioned before, I generally don't take movies seriously enough to dislike them, although I didn't think 10,000 BC, The 13th Warrior and The Good Shepherd were all that terrific. But Tank Girl was even more fun than I expected, and Iron Man blew my socks off. The Matrix movies, well, they were amazing.

Tank Girl? How'd that make it on your list? I guess I'm somewhat surprised you even heard of it. Its a really bizarre movie for sure.
I refuse to see 10,000 BB.
We LOVE 13th warrior and watch it over and over. For the record, I dislike everything else A.B. has made, I'm not much of a Michael Crichton fan, and I know I'm supposed to dislike the movie based on the Beowulf butchery. But darn it, I still like it.
Glad you had some good down time!
My favorite line from 13th warrior is when the viking guy sees A.B.'s sword and says "After you die, can I give that to my daughter?"
Hilarious!
(And yeah, Tank Girl is exactly my kind of movie!)
