I'm glad to hear your Dad is home and doing well--that's great! ♥
Re: Kevin Smith. I've always liked him and I usually like his movies, but I can't stand the toilet/gross-out humor. I just find it to be so unimaginative and boring (and disgusting!) :-) He uses it more in some movies than others, with Clerks 2 being a major offender. I don't ever want to see that one again...ugh! I enjoyed Zack and Miri, but I wish he would have left out the potty humor. And I wish it would have been more about them making Star Whores. That was a really funny idea! :-)
I'm so glad you enjoyed Terminator Salvation. We liked it okay, but my main complaint was that there wasn't enough Christian Bale! :-) I read somewhere that the next film in the series might feature Christian time-traveling back to London, circa 2009. I think that could be really interesting! And of course, I'm also quite excited about Public Enemies. We'll be going to see it that first weekend, too.
Re: Music. I listen to a lot of movie soundtracks/scores. Do you like them? Some of my favorites are Donnie Darko, Labyrinth, Return to Oz, and The Assassination of Jesse James. We watched the movie "Wonderland" the other day and now I want to get that soundtrack, too (it's got a lot of good classic rock!) I also just got Mandy Moore's new CD, "Amanda Leigh." Are you familiar with her more recent music? It reminds me a lot of the 70's singer-songwriters. Her last CD "Wild Hope" is really great...it's very breezy and uplifting, but also very honest and inspiring. I love it!
