BILL & TED’S EXCELLENT ADVENTURE (Herek, 1989) - Most Excellent. My favorite moment of watching it was seeing (a not-quite-sober) BF say “Oh wow!” a dozen times after a particular time-travel gimmick was invented by our doofussy heroes toward the end. His wonderment was infectious.
Also, it’s been a week since I watched this, and no movies since then. It’s partly just that life’s been busy (conference, new-year’s drinks, birthday dinner), but also that now that last year’s over, I’m taking some time to catch up on other forms of media: books, TV shows (Sherlock! Justified!), iPod games, Podcasts (Aisha Tyler is awesome), and I’ve even been renewing my interest in photography. Movies remain my #1 passion, of course, and I finished a commissioned review (of ISLAND OF LOST SOULS) just this past week. But I have to admit it feels good to take a breather and diversify a little.
