Back after a depressingly long interval...
...in which the pack managed to realize my worst fears. A nine game losing streak and the best player on the team "testing the waters" of the NBA draft. Great.
In terms of the movies lists, I've decided to go in a controversial direction. The next Top Ten list will be the Top 10 Chick Movies My Wife Has Forced Me to Watch (And, guys, you all know you've been in this boat with me). Remember, these movies will be reviewed from a thoroughly male perspective.
#10--The Notebook (2004)
The movie focuses on an old man reading a story to an old woman in a nursing home. The story he reads follows two young lovers named Allie Hamilton and Noah Calhoun, who meet one evening at a carnival. The movie flashes back and forth from the events of the story to the old guy reading it to the old woman. The old woman appears to have some Alzheimer's/dementia issues and seems to use the story as a focal point to keep her going. It became apparent to your average moron about halfway through the movie that the old guy is Noah and the old woman is Allie and he's reading to her so that she'll remember at least part of the story of their lives together. Not a bad story altogether, but it was played on HBO about 4,000 times per day for a while and I got tired of seeing it. Hotness factor was increased by the presence of semi-naked Rachel McAdams
Semi-memorable Quote (for a guy):
Duke: How's it hangin' Harry?
Harry: I keep trying to die, but they won't let me.
Duke: Well, you can't have everything.
Today's Musical Selection:
