Trip and I saw such an amazing movie on Saturday - Lars and the Real Girl. If you've ever wondered what heartwarming means, see this movie and you will understand. I smiled and cried through the entire thing (happy tears!), and felt so refreshed after the credits rolled. Of course it is completely off the wall, and no synopsis could ever do it justice (Man suffers from delusions that a Real Doll is, well, his real girlfriend). Don't think "this would never happen," but watch it and have hope that somewhere there does exist such a charming community of good natured people. I wonder why it didn't get more press when it was in theaters. I personally think it was a better screenplay than Juno, and deserved the Academy Award more.
So of course when we went to Blockbuster to exchange it for another, I knew we would have to switch gears quite a bit, especially since the movies we were looking at were No Country For Old Men and Charlie Wilson's War (we went for the latter. I wasn't quite ready for all that violence). But perusing the aisles, neither of us could get over how many disgusting horror movies there were. Like, every other movie was some guy's face being eaten off. Sick. Ass. Can somebody please explain to me what the appeal is?
Nothing, however, could prepare either of us for the obvious Oscar snub that is Teeth.
What is Teeth, you may ask?
Well, Teeth is a horror movie about a teenager that finds out her vagina has teeth.
And on that note... I'm going to go wash my hands, because I feel dirty just from typing that.

We, on the other hand, watched No Country For Old Men. Mos def would recommend it (so would I). Javier Bardem sports what has to be the creepiest haircut in movie history. See it!
