I'll read when I'm good and darn ready...

So I went to see Napoleon Dynamite for the second time last night at the Cinema Grill off Shipyard Blvd. Again I'm reminded of how great a movie it is. Not because there is necessarily anything obviously brilliant about it except that it's just inherently brilliant. Made on a shoestring budget and shot entirely on location in Iowa this film utilized masterfully constructed extremely memorable characters and excellent casting with some of the best actors of the day. Fresh and funny I'd recommend this film to ANYONE! A movie about nothing with a great ending! When you leave you'll be asking yourself why you liked it but even with no reason you won't be able to deny it. It's being rereleased in theaters this christmas season by MTV films (who were smart to snatch it up when they did) and the DVD will be on shelves December 21. I know I'll be in line to pick up a copy, you should too!

Now I'm off to read as this is the university's scheduled "reading day" ugh...Reading is for weenies and extremely intelligent lab monkeys.
