So it’s Thanksgiving Weekend and everything’s great! For those who think I have no life because I posted two reviews today, ummm…I don’t know, go give thanks and screw yourselves. I saw The Private Lives of Pippa Lee a while back, so all I had to do was post my review which was saved on my computer. And then yes people, today on Thanksgiving Day I left my family for a couple hours and went to see Fantastic Mr. Fox. I should feel like a total asshole right now, but the showing was at 10:05 am. Who stuffs a turkey that early? I got back around noon and my family was just starting to cook.

My plans for this weekend…ummmm, good times. I’m at my house in Brooklyn so since I am in New York, time to stack up on those limited released. This weekend I would have done so anyway because of The Road, but it’s a four day weekend so I have more free time. Today I saw Fantastic Mr. Fox, which was great by the way, and tomorrow I am seeing Bad Lieutenant while my grandparents see An Education at the same theater in Manhattan. As much as I would love to see An Education again, I really want to try to see movies I haven’t yet seen. Plus, I really want to see Werner Herzog's Bad Lieutenant. But I think the centerpiece of my weekend, despite of course eating a lot of turkey with the greatest stuffing ever, is seeing The Road with a couple of my friends at the Landmark on Saturday night.

So I enjoy going to the movies a lot. Sue me. All weekend I’m with my family and I’m seeing movies. To me, there’s nothing better. And so far, I’ve seen a great one. Let’s see if Friday and Saturday promise great films as well.

This weekend I’m sure you’ll rush to theaters see crap like Old Dogs and the slightly less crappy New Moon. People! Listen to me, see Fantastic Mr. Fox, see An Education if you live in the city, see Precious. And as for Precious, it’s now playing wide so you have no excuse not to see a great film. I personally can’t wait to see The Road on Saturday.

As for Black Friday, not my thing. I don't see the appeal in behaving like an animal and tackling housewives for a microwave.

Oh, and Happy Thanksgiving!
