Musings on movies, connections, and what to anticipate, suitable for reading before or after you see them. I love movies, watch 2-3 per week on average, and write about things I like WITHOUT SPOILERS. The only thing I hate more than spoilers are reviewers who trash movies because they think it makes them seem smart. When a movie title contains a link, it's almost always a link to my blog posting on the title.

Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist (2008)
Amy is home for a few days and this movie was a planned activity for us. She thought she would like it better but I thought it was very cute. Jodi had wondered if it was a "teeny-bopper" movie. In my family, the mom liked it and the teen thought it was just OK (maybe repeated viewings will change her opinion). Lots of fun music, Juno-style opening credits, some potty humor, nice kids vs. mean kids, and a coming-of-age-in-New-York-story all wrapped up in one night. Michael Cera (Juno, Superbad, etc) is still playing the same character. Aaron Yoo, supporting character from Rocket Science (2007, about the stuttering debater), 21, and The Wackness (both 2008), has shown more range, playing mean, nice, straight, and gay. He has 4 movies in post-production and 1 in pre-.
