Footloose and Fancy-Free

Yep. That title means nothing. I just liked it. And since I'm a fly by the seat of my pants kind of girl (that also has nothing to do with anything) I went with it. Woo hoo. I'm a maniac. A maniac for sure. And I'm dancing like I've never danced before. Oh yeah. That's right baby.

So last night we went to see Sin City. And let me just say, it was sweet. I'm still not sure if I loved the actual movie or if it was just the overall swankiness of it that got to me. Because it was swank. Swankilicious. Swanktastic. Supercalifragilisticexpialaswank. You get my drift. The cinematography was fabulous. Lots of black and white with splashes of colour for intensity. Great. And very comic booky in a good way, not a Daredevil/Batman and Robin kind of way. And I'm a gimmicky kind of girl so it totally worked for me. Plus Frodo was in it and he was nuts! Nuts I say! And I'm always a fan of the nuts. Haha. I also really dug the deliberate over acting. I'm being serious here. It was fun. And who doesn't love dozens of scantily clad hussies? With guns!? I ask you? Who?! Hussies who kill. I dig it. But I'm still not 100% sure what the point of the movie was. The story was interesting for sure but did it actually go anywhere? Did I miss something? Probably. We were a few minutes late because of the super fun racing games in the lobby of the theatre so maybe we missed some key bits there. I'll never know. But hey, I laughed, I cried, I had a little tingle in the pants so it seems like a good movie to me.

I think I may have to see a new movie every week now. I'm addicted. Sounds like a plan, man. Speaking of which, do any of you remember the Sesame Street episode with the man with the golden an? It was all 70s style (probably because it was the 70s - god I'm old) and there was this seedy back alley and some undercover cops and a guy who was trying to sell a golden "an" which was sewn into the lining of his trench coat. Do you remember? "You're going to meet the man with the golden an. He'll be in a van. The van is tan." It went on like that forever. That was cool. They should make a movie about that. But I'm not sure you could fill an entire feature film with dialogue that rhymes with an.
