Pleasantly Surprised

How'd That Go Again?

I have managed to pull in a couple feature length pictures. I started off with Jackson's King Kong, flew through my old favorite The Incredibles, and finished up with Burton's Corpse Bride.

Kong, was a plesant surprise. I was expecting the worst, considering the usual serial crap that Hollywood has been putting out, but Pete pulled off a spectacular series of events that made for some good entertainment. Although, even I could not suspend my disbelief far enough to believe that you can break a sealed bottle of chloroform against anything organic. Don't agree? Then I would suggest your try breaking a beer bottle over your head without opening it.

The Incredibles is still one of my all time favorites. Pixar, has it all figured out, and that's final.

Burton's view flows along with the view that his other movies portray. I'm glad I didn't see this picture when the hype was at it's highest, as I don't believe I would have enjoyed it as much as I have. At another time, or in different company, the movie wouldn't have been the same. Some people just don't appreciate musicals.
