The To-Do List!

Not more than ten minutes ago, I sent my Punch Drunk cohort John a message saying "Not a lot of options for the show this week!" With Star Trek already under our belts, that leaves precious little to sink my movie butter soaked teeth into.



So even though I've already been whisked away by the greatness that is Star Trek(my review is right here), there's still one unexplored territory left on my radar: IMAX. Mmmmm...Zoe Saldana in jumbo format....yummmm....



Mos Def. Mike Epps. Donald Faison. A shipment of drugs. Maybe it's me, but this movie smacks of Pineapple Express for black folks. Not that I'm complaining, it actually looks halfway decent. And I don't know who the hell this Yasmin Deliz person is, but....well, just check her out:



That's the real deal, folks!

I've decided that Lymelife just looks to lame to see. Do I really want to watch a film about lyme disease? Computer says no! That leaves me with precious few options, one of which will certainly be Sugar, by the writer/directors of Half Nelson. It's the story of a Dominican baseball player recruited to play in the American minor leagues. Looks and sounds very Soderbergh-esque, and probably worth a looksie. It's playing at AMC Shirlington and the Cinema Arts Theatre in Fairfax.
