    Top 5 Bands

    i've been "grown up" since i was 16. they're good bands. i like a lot of different stuff but their music helps me relax, which is one of my favorite things to do. assessing one's maturity level should be a bit more difficult than using 5 bands they like

    Man on fire

    i thought it was quite good. dakota fanning knocks my socks off, she's so talented. some scenes made me dizzy though. i'm not a big denzel washington fan, but i liked him in this role

    Female Writers

    i've read Margaret Atwood, Jean Auel, Jan Austen, Anne Rice and a few others. my list of favorite authors includes both men and women. it is true, though, that most of the books i've read are by men. my favorite genre is sci-fi and historical fiction action, and it seems mostly men write in...

    I just saw the movie A.I.

    i know. i didnt mean to imply you were saying i had to like it. i was just stating that even with the recollection of that element of the story it didnt help for me.

    I just saw the movie A.I.

    the general concensus of where the film should have ended may not have occured to spielberg. to say they laboured for another 30 mins of film is to assume it occured to him to end it there but that he decided to stick it out longer. but if it had and that's where it ended i would have been...

    I just saw the movie A.I.

    I really enjoyed the movie, but the ending did somewhat ruin it for me. It's the kind of ending where I think I sort of got ripped off. Like, they could have done something better, or just flipped some stupid idea in order to end it nicely. They got lazy and just threw that in because the movie...

    Georgian Cottage In A Village...

    i think the house is adorable! it's exactly the kind i love - has great character. of course you can always paint the walls you dont like, that's nothing you're in the same boat as my husband and i. we're going to buy a house in about 6 months and, luckily, the market here looks like it's...

    Jane Austen: Pride And Prejudice

    i love this book, it's definitely one of my favorites. jane austen brilliantly writes about the complexities of courtship and marriage in a time when women often had to worry more about marrying for their future than for love. that aside, i think it's a timeless novel. funny and witty too
