John Hughes Marathon

So about 3 or so weeks late we had a dvd movie marathon in honor and memory of John Hughes.



We started out with Sixteen Candles starring Molly Ringwald, Anthony Michael Hall and John Cuscak. Haven't seen this film in a long time and I think it was my first time seeing the unedited version. It was great.



The 2nd film was The Breakfast Club with Emilio Estevez, Anthony Michael Hall, Molly Ringwald, Ally Sheedy and Judd Nelson. It has been a long time since I seen this film. It was good, but I feel they really over did it with the drama.



The 3rd and final film was Weird Science starring Anthony Michael Hall, Ilan Mitchell-Smith, Kelly LeBrock, Robert Downey and Bill Paxton. Still my favorite Hughes film after Ferris Beuller's Day Off. Favorite scene is when they are in the bar and Gary is talking after he is blitzed. Greatness.



It was fun and I'm glad that some of you guys made it. Not sure what our next marathon is, but I'll look forward to it.



Until then........

Little Boxes

So Jen and I have been checking out the hit show, Weeds from Showtime on DVD. We finally finished season 4 and we loved the series up to this point.

Seasons 1-3 were great, especially with the theme song, Little Boxes. Just so quirky. Season 4 kind of threw us, but still kept up involved in the show.

Several characters disappeared in season 4 and we missed them, but understood why along with the original song being removed. We can't wait for Season 5 to release on DVD. Should be great.

Next series to watch is, In Treatment from HBO.

The Unknown

So, things haven't been going well for me, my wife and members of our family.

We have determined that some major changes will need to happen. In my world, I have been stuck on a plateau for 5 years. That is way too long and it is overdue for a change. Not sure what will happen, but I need to make it happen.

Confusing huh?

Sunshine Cleaning

3.5 out of 5

A very cute film starring Amy Adams, Emily Blunt, Steve Zahn and Alan Arkin. A struggling single mother working with her kid sister and father as a huge opportunity comes to her and the shortly blows up in her face.

Amy puts on her bubbly, sweet face as normal, but with some sign of pain here and there. She comes to several realizations when things come head first at her.

Arkin was as hilarious on this film as he was in "Little Miss Sunshine". He clearly works great with kids.

Check this film out. I had never heard of it, but loved it. A nice break from the mainstream.

Navigataz: The Purchase

So we finally did it. We got new bicycles. Cost a pretty penny (no I won't tell you how much). We got the Trek Navigator 2.0. My bike is pretty big and felt pretty comfortable.

We will be biking soon and hope to get some great exercise along with our normal routine. Wish us luck.
