a first for everything

i have seen a lot of movies. a lot of films. lots. lots of shitty ones and a whole lot of good ones...yesterday i went and saw the new brad pitt movie 'the curious case of benjamin buttons' and while i have no problem at all with brad pitt as an actor, i was less than impressed with this baby. i'm not going to give a long drawn out review here excpect to say this, i was bored...but while i was deciding whether or not to go see it i was scanning the georgia straight looking for other options, and one of the options was at the film festival theatre on seymour street, they were showing a remastered version of the godfather...then it dawned on me..i've never seen that...sure, i've seen bits and pieces over time, which is true for a lot of films i haven't actually seen. which made me think about fixing that. there are many films i should have seen by now...i've never seen a full dirty harry movie, couldn't get through lord of the rings, and whole host of others...so after i finished watching the godfather today, i decided to start renting dvd's of the films i should have seen by now...if you have ideas of some i should have seen by now, let me know...
i've been doing a lot of walking the last few days as i just can't get into driving...and i've been liking it...reminds me of not having my licence again...not that i'm looking t repeat that trick.
ok...i'm off to bed soon....well, in a bit, i'm gonna go to floyd's tomorrow....
