7 Year Itch

On my DVR right now, sits a show called SMASH - that will have something to do with a musical involving Marilyn Monroe.

I’m sorta hoping i don’t like the show…  but at the same time I’m kinda glad I threw Seven Year Itch while I made dinner tonight.

Which reminds me… i need to call my friend Heather soon.  7 Year Itch is a favorite of hers too….

Movie 38/365

Grease 2

I’m going to say something right now that is going to be pretty unpopular with anyone who is a fan of both film or musicals…

I not only like Grease 2 but I kinda prefer it over the original.

I’m not exactly sure what spurred my interest in watching this again, other than It showed up in my Netflix queue as a movie I may enjoy watching again.

Netflix queue was correct.

Well… sorta correct.  There were a few parts of the movie that I really wished didn’t happen.  Especially the bowling number “we’re gonna score tonight”.

A few of the numbers till bring back some found memories tho’.  The bomb shelter scene and song made me chuckle pretty hard.  My favorite part of the movie was the school production # at the end of the movie where the “girl of all seasons” gets belted out.

Moog

I got to play with a Moog in person (once) about 6 years ago when my roommate Jaime had his cousin Will come up to Detroit for a music festival (NxNW) in Toronto.

I’ve never had so much fun emitting noise outward and thought to myself - I could get one of these and never want to put it down.

I picked up a Moog app for my iPad a few months ago and while I don’t play with it very often, I will drop the occasional hour or two if I launch the application.

Netflix recently showcased a documentary, titled : MOOG - and I picked it as the thing to watch before the Superbowl this afternoon.

The film isn’t so much a documentary about the Moog…  it doesn’t really touch on people (artists/bands) who have utilized it either.  It’s a tribute of sorts to Dr. Robert Moog and his contribution to music.

All in all, it’s a pretty forgettable flick…

Revenge of the Nerds

One of the nice things about getting up early on Saturday is catching a movie on Comedy Central…  the programing gods were on my side this morning and I got to re-watch a favorite of mine - Revenge of the Nerds.
