Catching Up With Pop Culture

The great thing about Netflix is that I now have a queue of movies that the rest of the world saw a long time ago. Some of them are movies that anyone of my age and field should have watched long before now. (I’m not going to list them, but I am suitably embarrassed by some of the gaps in my repertoire of viewed movies.) I’m also getting the chance to see movies I haven’t watched in ages, like Fight Club and Fargo.

Sadly, my next movies haven’t arrived yet, so I’m going to have to review (as in “re-view”) some of the ones I own. I haven’t watched The Graduate in a while, and someone just lent us The Chronicles of Riddick. I know they’re not the same quality of film, but I’ve heard that Riddick is worth seeing. (And I really liked Pitch Black, so I’m willing to give it a shot.)

Wow, look at all those links. I almost don’t want to say that I watched Wedding Crashers tonight, just because of the massive linkage in this post. At least they’re not affiliate links, right? Wedding Crashers was mostly funny, if a bit too long. We did watch the “uncorked version,” which is eight minutes longer. I can see why they cut it down, and I may have to compare it to the theatrical version some day.
