Totally, totally, totally want to see The Brothers Grimm, because... just because. I don't even know why -- except that it looks like it's either going to be awesome, or delightfully awful. Hard to tell, really.

In other news, I've just spent the past... hour browsing iTunes listening to the songs of my misspent youth. Good GRIEF, I did not know that iTunes had expended its collection to include flash-in-the-pan 80's hair bands.

Oh, yes. Teh bunneh liked teh hair bands. I found bands I'd FORGOTTEN about! Good grief! Songs that were played at middle school dances!

When did I get so old!?!? *cries*

LOL -- well, thank you! (Though I bet if that icon gets close enough to the mirror, even she can see the beginnings of crow's feet around her eyes...) XD

I'm with you there. Hard to know what to expect, but since it's Terry Gilliam, I suspect strange would be a good place to start... I certainly plan on finding out for myself anyway.

And on the music thing, anyone who remembers 80s music because it was played at school dances is not old. Anyone who remembers the Beatles and the Rolling Stones being played at school dances may well be (shuffles off to get her walking stick)...

Yes -- the trailers they're playing here are very short and not very satisfying, but I downloaded one from IMDB, and it looks really interesting. I'm starting to think it may be one of those "surprise" movies -- not much hype, but does very well in the box office. It opens in about two weeks, and this is the first I've heard of it.

*laughs* My mother would scold me for saying I feel old, and would promptly point out that she still likes Herman's Hermits and The Dave Clark Five.

HEE!

Yeah, I know I've got a stash of "hair band" CDs around here SOMEWHERE. I've got the most irresistible urge to listen to "Smokin' in the Boys' Room" and "Youth Gone Wild."

*had big hair in the late 80's too*

Heh -- the really sad thing is that, when I was younger, I went to a LOT of rock concerts. And I'm starting to notice that my hearing is worse in one ear than the other. *sigh*

I don't go to a whole lote of concerts, but I know I'll be one of those deaf old biddies in the not too distant future. I tend to listen to my music really loud... like, REALLY loud. Full volume on the walkman, pretty much, if I'm working out.

It's like a credit card. It's a ton of fun now, but I'll be paying for it later... with interest.

I'm going for the former. I want to see it too. That and..a crap I forgot the title. But it has that guy that starred in The Italian job.
