let's talk about movies

Last night I watched Chance and The Air I Breathe.  

Let's talk about Chance first...

Is it terrible to say that James Marsters is a better actor than Amber Benson?  That being said, I did like Amber in the movie.  Her character gave me a new appreciation, because although I like Tara she was never *GREAT* in my opinion.  Um, and the stinky armpits bit?  Kinda grossed me out not gonna lie.  

After that I watched The Air I Breathe...

Love, love, love, love Sarah Michelle Gellar in this movie.  WAS THIS MOVIE IN THEATERS??  Because I sure as hell don't remember it, and it was only four years ago.  There were a ton of awesome actors in it (Brendan Fraser, Andy Garcia, Forest Whitacer, EMILE HIRSCH!, and although I usually don't like him Kevin Bacon was all right in this movie).  It had that whole Crash vibe where everyone's interconnected.  I thought it was well acted and pretty powerful.  Anyone else see this movie?  I'm on a total SMG kick right now, my next movie to watch is Southland Tales.

Speaking of SMG...Is anyone watching Ringer?  I have to say it is definitely getting better with each episode.  I thought that I would be shipping Henry/BridgetasShioban because I love Kristoffer Polaha, but strangely enough the Brits win again and I'm starting to ship Andrew/BridgetasShioban.  I really don't have a lot of love for Shoiban.  Maybe it's because they've done nothing to build up her character?  Ringer is like Gossip Girl for adults and I LOVE GOSSIP GIRL!  Amber Benson is going to guest star in the 10th episode.  Hopefully Ringer starts doing better in the ratings.

I am loving the Ringer. I think its fantastic. I love how the twins interact and how different their characters are. She is wonderful in the series! I haven't seen either of the movie you posted but I may have to check them out.

I'm not too picky when it comes to my shows, and I love SMG so I'm not giving up on Ringer like I know a lot of people have. I'm actually liking it, as I said in my post it reminds me of a Gossip Girl for adults. I saw SMG on Regis & Kelly and she said there's plot for 3 seasons right now, so hopefully it stays on for that long!

BTW I saw on your LJ that you've been gone for two years...I can top that, I was gone for 5! The fandom is a lot different than I remember it. A lot of members that were very active are no longer around, unfortunately :( Good to see you back!
