I watched this movie for the third time the other day — still liked it, still think it’s a fun, fun movie, even though I fast-forwarded through bunches of it (the fight scene, lots of the times when Lex is just monologuing). Here’s a handy list: My Favorite Things About Superman Returns: 1. “How tall […]

I’m not sure what to say about this movie — I’ve put off writing a review for a whole week, but it hasn’t helped. *Andrea said it reminded her of a fanfic, and I would even say it was kind of like a nano novel. You get this great idea, and you dive into it, […]
The United States has a new president today! In the spirit of change and hope, here’s a fun website: The Story of Stuff. You can play a very cute 20 minute video talking about the production-consumption-disposal cycle of our stuff.
