Nice hat, Keanu.

Like most mid- 90s films metformin weight loss and pregnancy that aired on cable every weekend of my youth, I’ve seen A Walk in the Clouds (1995) dozens of times. And you know what? It never gets old. This isn’t a lame Nicholas Sparks romance where someone is guaranteed to die; it’s a simple story that doesn’t try to be more meaningful than it is. You just follow two beautiful people over the course of a couple days as they fall in love: the perfect remedy for a romantic dry spell.

Danny Boyle metformin hcl 500 mg weight loss is a freaking filmmaking chameleon. The guy actively seeks out things that aren’t even remotely related in genre or subject matter every time he lines up his next project. Excluding A Life Less Ordinary, because I haven’t seen it, here’s Boyle’s resume chronologically: Trainspotting, The Beach, 28 Days Later, Millions, Sunshine, Slumdog Millionaire. That’s drugs, a beach, zombies, little kids finding stolen money, sci-fi and rags to riches. And then he follows that up with a true story about real life hiker Aron Ralston, who was hiking through a remote Utah canyon when a rock fell and pinned his arm against a wall.

It’s a daunting challenge to follow up a comedy like The Hangover, but Todd Phillips does his best to take a new spin on the tried-and-true, buddy-comedy road trip genre with Due Date.

Leading up to it’s release, I had already decided not to see the final chapter of Stieg Larsson’s Millenium trilogy. I made that decision because I wanted to read the books and have both experiences of the franchise; from film to novel with the first two, and novel to film on the final chapter. Of course that was ridiculously naive in neglecting to remember how long it would take me to read through the three novels of a combined 1800+ pages. There’s some merit, I think, in seeing it from both sides, and back in July I even mentioned this intention in my review of The Girl Who Played With Fire. Then Jason asked me if I was going to see The Girl Who Kicked The Hornet’s Nest and write a review. Damnit.

Day 31: Halloween (1978)

“I met him, fifteen years ago. I was told there was nothing left. No reason, no conscience, no understanding; even the most rudimentary sense of life or death, good or evil, right or wrong. I met this six-year-old child, with this blank, pale, emotionless face and, the blackest eyes… the *devil’s* eyes. I spent eight years trying to reach him, and then another seven trying to keep him locked up because I realized what was living behind that boy’s eyes was purely and simply… *evil*.”

Honestly, is there any way that you could properly end a Halloween marathon other than with Halloween? I mentioned it before that I was really pushing for The Exorcist to close us out, because I consider it one of the best (if not the best), but it just didn’t feel right. To keep Halloween from Halloween is criminal, so here we are with the final entry of 31 Days (until the sequel, naturally).

Space Jam is the most culturally and aesthetically significant film ever made featuring Wayne Knight in a supporting role. Upon its release it transcended the worlds of sports and cinema like no other movie before or since. It is perhaps most noteworthy for launching the athletic career of Michael Jordan. Prior to Space Jam, ‘His Airness’ was little more than a once-promising high school and college athlete that now bided his time toiling away in baseball’s minor leagues. Inspired by the movie’s realistic depiction of the game of basketball, Jordan would move on to the NBA and go down as one of the most well-rounded basketball players of the mid 90’s.
