Weak....

I know...this has been pathetic, its been over a month since I have posted, and I always pledge to do better and end up doing worse. Now I am convinced you all think I am just a liar!  I have been watching a TON of movies though and will list them all here now and try to catch up some other time. Start fresh for August maybe?? Okay so....in no particular order...
#135 Larry Crowne (2011) - cute.  Love Tom Hanks...I don't seem to tire of him. Julia Roberts I can sometimes do without but she wasn't bad here. Nice chemistry I thought.
#136 You Again (2010) not as bad as I expected it to be...could be that I love Kristen Bell and well.....Sean Wing was in this for brief glimpses....and it made me miss American Idiot so much. I laughed a few times.
#137 -139 ( counting this as 3 because it was 19 freaking episodes and I watched them all in a 3 day span) My So-Called Life (1994-1995) This was my favorite show for a very long time.  Watching it again so many years later made me come to a sad realization...now that I have children I find myself relating more to the parents than I ever did before. Its a whole different show for me. Still love Claire Danes and though Jared Leto as Jordan Catellano was still as beautiful as ever....this time I didn't get it so much...her obsession with him.  Brian Krakow had so much more to offer!
#140 For the Bible Tells Me So (2007) This was actually really very good. A documentary that documents several families that have strong religious beliefs and they each find out that they have a child that is homosexual.  It was heartbreaking and beautiful and inspiring at the same time. I highly recommend this one.
#141 Loving Lampposts (2010) this was just okay for me. It was basically an overview of people's experiences with autism.  I thought it was an awful lot of information and too wide a variety of views with not enough time dedicated to each one...it was alright.
#142 Which Way Home another heartbreaking but excellent documentary about unaccompanied children that try to get into the US. Really made me think...
