Rants, Remembrances, and Ruminations

Forget "Da Vinci Code", show me "The Proposition"

I won't try to recap all that's gone on since my last real post.

I just wanted to mention that my guess for The Da Vinci Code is that it will do well the first weekend in spite of itself. Am I the only one who is genuinely uninterested in this movie? Normally, I'd be stoked to see a Ron Howard/Tom Hanks team-up, but this one just bores me at the mere mention.

On the other hand, "The Proposition" looks to be a movie worth more hype than it's received in the mainstream press. I'm not the biggest western junkie, but there are some excellent films in the genre. This one may be up there with them as well. Take a look...
