movies, september/october 2007
Didn’t catch as much as I’d have liked to catch these months, but I have a great excuse. September was a month spent travelling, and the only planes that were remotely useful in showing me TV, was Singapore Airlines. Pity, because I went to sleep in the night flight. Qantas sucks, and their system crashes/reboots frequently. Lufthansa is stuck in the 20th century, so you don’t even get a personal TV (like United).
- License to Wed - saw this on the dreaded Qantas flight (MEL->NRT), after numerous failed attempts. They rebooted the entire system, and I got to watch one show, before the system crashed again. Frustrating. Movie wise, it was interesting, I liked it because of Mandy Moore (okay, and Robin Williams was funny too). Not something I’d have paid to watch in the cinema (as agreed with most of the #photogeeks), but was good for funnies on a plane.
- The Bourne Ultimatum - great show, I’m kinda unhappy the series looks like it ended. But great show, a must-watch, and the action in the cinema big-screen makes it all so worthwhile. Highly recommended, best movie in October.
- Rush Hour 3 - as always, the combination of actors makes this a comedy worth watching. Highly recommended.
I’ve also seen an end to Season 1 of Californication. Followed it closely, even during my travels. Truly a series I enjoy watching (and no, its not because of the sex) - its the plot. It just hooks you. Can’t wait for the DVD, Season 2, and maybe even the soundtrack (no, I will not buy it from the iTunes music store).
