I went to see My Blueberry Nights last night, and it was just delightful. Sure, it's not Wong Kar Wai's best, but no one was expecting it to be, and it was actually better than I expected. Sure, Norah Jones is no actress, but she is rather charming and unassuming and, again, no one was expetcing her to be good anyway. In any case, the main love story is adorable, Jude Law was was enchanting in his role, Natalie Portman finally did something different than her usual roles and Rachel Weisz stole the movie. God, that woman is incredible. It was still a very Wong Kar Wai movie, though - the color palette, the camera shots and slow motion, it was all very him. And anyway, the ending left me grinning like an idiot, so it's all fine.

AND THEN TODAY I SAW INDIANA JONES AND SOMETHING SOMETHING INVOLVING A SKULL. HELLZ YEAH. Okay, so it wasn't as good as the first trilogy but DUDE, WHO CARES, IT'S INDIANA FUCKING JONES AND HE'S BACK IN OUR SCREENS!!!! So yeah, I liked it. Guilty pleasure and all, but I did. It lacked a bit music score, though. And logic, but again, this is Indy, I don't watch these movies for silly things like logic anyway. Aaaand Mutt is Indy's son. WELL, DUH. I think we all figured that one out, oh, EONS AGO, THANK YOU. He was cute and not annoying until the point in which HE BECAME TARZAN. Then he was just lulzy. Aaaanyway, I loved the YAY NUCLEAR BLAST scene and Indy was all badass and awesome and CARNIVORE ANTS, WAY COOL. BUT.

ALIENS. DUDE, ALIENS. LOL. That was. Well. Loltastic doesn't quite cover it. Soooo. I liked it but I expected more. Kinda. In any case, now I just have this CRAVING to rewatch the original series, especially The Last Crusade, which has always been my favorite because MMM INDY IN VENICE and MMM SEAN CONNERY LOOKING ALL HOT.
