Let's Talk Movie Review



Recommended Posts

I really liked Touch of Evil. It was a Hitchcock, right? Or am I confused again?

you are confused...Orson Welles was the producer, director and actor

We saw Stephen King's Desperation recently. It was kinda dumb. It could have been good, but it just wasn't.

I think SK's movies are hit or miss. Some are good, but some just aren't. I wonder why?

Could not agree more. I think the material just does not lend itself well to screen adaptation. Personally, I think it's because his books extremely detailed, and there's no way the movies could squeeze in all that stuff (without making it a multi part, like LOTR)

Gollum, gollum.... (said as Smeagal hacking up a fur ball)

In typing that, and in acting it out at my desk, I just realized I need my coffee. Oh, and that I'm a nerd.

When I read (past and present tense) the books, I pronounced his name as if it was someone having great difficulty in swallowing something...oppposite of hacking one up..so same, but different.

I too need more coffee.< /p>

Yes. Yes you are. But I dig that. I'm certainly not afraid to embrace my inner geek. Actually, it's not all that "inner"...

Yes. Yes you do.

I'm ready to go home, plz. If anybody sees my boss, send her my way, K?

True, some are not even worth a moment in time, but if any of you get the chance, watch "The Mist". It's crazy good and follows well with his short story. It just came out not more than a few years ago.

If you get the chance to read the short story. It will turn you inside out!! The man can write no doubt.

Hey, Mr. Mac gets his CPAP machine on Tues. I can't wait! They are making him take a class on it before they give it to him. That seems like overkill to me.

Not many movies watched over the weekend - too much company and stuff. However, did manage to squeeze in:

Captain Corelli's mandolin - 2

Don't bother to knock - 2

All the Kings men - 3

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
