Womannnn!!

A company called Master Replicas does reproductions of the Muppets that are used for publicity photos. These are not puppets they are stand alone Muppets that don't need a puppeteer to manipulate them. If I had the money and the extra space I'd love to get one of these someday. Hopefully, they will do Gonzo sometime in the future (He's my favorite!)

Bunnies!

Just put these together today. They are from a great website and are designed by Matt Hawkins. He has a cool looking owl that I would like to try next. Check out Custom Paper Toys.

Some other celebrities that I have seen in the past include Paul Benedict, Emmanuelle Lewis, Andie MacDowell, Elton John, Usher, Nelly, Jermaine Dupree, and Chili from TLC.

Slither

Slither is quickly becoming one of my favorite movies. I saw this at the movie theater last year and thought it was gross, disgusting, hilarious, and even a little sweet. I just picked this film up on DVD and I watched it the other night. I had forgotten its charm. This film is not for the weak of stomach, but if you can stand the gore the movie is worth the watch. It is the standard aliens taking over the world story, but it is told with such humor that it seems totally original. The standout of the cast is Elizabeth Banks who plays Starla. Starla is married to Grant Grant (yes that's right), who is infected by an alien parasite. Even through her husband's horrifying transformation she tries to stay true to her marriage vows. Banks plays the role with such sweetness, but she also gives a great comedic performance. This film is not for the faint of heart, but if you love horror this is one movie that should be watched.

Spiderman 3

Well, I was finally able to squeeze in a screening of Spiderman 3. The Spiderman movies are a strange case for me. I really enjoy them, but am never realy excited about seeing them. They have always been worth watching. I always have a good time at the theater when I have gone to see them. I thought that this last installment was pretty good. I thought that the dynamics between Peter and Mary Jane were very interesting and I always love the scenes with Peter and his aunt. I think they really add a human layer to the story. I thought the effects were great... especially with the Sandman. I did think that the Venom storyline was drwn out too long. Nothing really happens with that until the last half of the movie... but he did look pretty crazy. I think that Spiderman 2 is my favorite of the 3, but I would still recommend fans of the series to see this film.
