God, I need a new DVD player. A few years ago, my pops won a contest where he worked and ended up with this prize. It worked swell up until last year at some point. Each time Rollo, Reese and I sit down for an evening of movie watching, we can manage to get through about 3/4 of the movie before it starts skipping - sometimes back to the DVD menu itself! I don't know if it just gets too hot (it doesn't feel hot) or if its just another rickety piece of junk that somehow hammered out a few years worht of functionality. Whatever the case, I have another DVD player in my room that I always forget about. If I use brain sometimes maybe I get watch DVD movie yes? Yeesh, I'm a moron.
We ended up watching Stranger than Fiction and while it didn't really fit into what I thought I was going to see, I still enjoyed it. That is, I expected another Will Ferrell "slap-my-knee" comedy. At the end of the movie, I was more disappointed I didn't get many one-liners or clever quotes from it. Rollo had asked me what I had thought about it, and I replied "It's not my favorite, but certainly don't hate it." After sleeping on it, though, I realized that I did rather enjoy the movie. It could easily fit into my arsenal of movies. Good movie! I'll be sure to add it to my Amazon.com wish list.

It started out real slow but then got very poignant at the end. It's like a slow burn. And at the end of it, you're a little teary eyed.
