i’ve been succeeding at this goal, by concentrating on two philosophies:
1. let go
2. don’t take yourself so seriously
if i think about these mantras everyday, my life is unbelievably better. sometimes life can be so simple!

48. kiss the bride (2002, vanessa parise, w/ lots of folks – only familiar was alyssa milano) – not good, pretty predictable and corny.
49. slaughterhouse five (1972, george roy hill, w/ michael sacks, valerie perrine) – fantastic rendition of the novel!
it’s been over a year now since i’ve adopted this goal, and i’ve only watched 49 movies, so sad! but, i’ve been working on my dissertation, so that’s my excuse… hope to improve on this during the next year!

47. troll 2 (1990, cladio fragasso, w/ ? it doesn’t really matter) best.worst.movie.ever. definitely see it, it’s worth it, trust me… you’ll be laughing the whole time!
