Things cooled off a little bit this week. In part due to lack of specific writing/podcasting projects, in part due to social engagements (See Simon – I do to get out!), and in part just to reset myself after what felt like three weeks of sensory overload.

Of course right on cue, I’ve been sent a stack of NXNE screeners. Things may or may not ramp back up in the week to come depending on how good the weather is this long weeekend.

Here’s what was on tap…

Screenings
PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN – Four of us went, three of us had the same opinion.

Blu-Rays/DVD’s I’ve Never Seen
I LOVE YOU, PHILLIP MORRIS – One of the more underrated films I’ve seen recently.
THREE O’ CLOCK HIGH – More pain for the king.

Blu-Rays/DVD’s I’ve Watched Before
SHERLOCK HOLMES – I liked it a little bit more the second time around.
BLACK SWAN – Still glorious.
RATATOUILLE – I’m finding my passion for cooking is returning, and this is the sort of film I turn to for inspiration.
