Snowpiercer anyone?

Bueller??

I think at least two folks on my flist have seen this movie -- please link me because I went back a long way and could not find your reviews.

For the record I thought it was incredibly gripping, and I WOULD recommend it.  However, you need to like films that are not made in America.  You have to realize that this film is based on a FRENCH GRAPHIC NOVEL.  So if you like, for example, CITY OF LOST CHILDREN, then you are prepared for this film. It is NOT trying to be the next Transformers.

Chris did an awesome job btw.

Captain America: The Winter Soldier

I've been pretty eager to see this movie, because of all the good buzz about it on my flist.  Thanks y'all!  My son and I went to see it yesterday during the day, because it is spring break.  Overall, I liked it, tho I had a few qualms.
SPOILERS about Cap2 under cut )

Two hour Shield event tonight?  conflicts with new SPN??  Um..... that would be SPN natch.

A wonderful Passover to those who celebrate.  For many years we have celebrated Passover at my church, but not this year, so my family had our own little Passover at home.  I'm not Jewish (tho like Colbert, I am haplo group K!), but I respect the Jewish tradition very much.  Many heartfelt prayers to those who were touched by the hate crimes in Overland Park, Kansas.  ):    After our seder we watched "Everyone Hates Hitler," one of my favorite Supernatural episodes.  If Edlund had to leave SPN, at least he got to write Undead Nazi Necromancers before he went.  Yay Golem!  I hope the Men of Letters (aka Sam and Dean) cooperate with rabbis again sometime soon.
