was a pretty good disney animated movie, almost as good as a pixar
44 juno
very interesting quirky relationship
45 treasure of sierra madre
watched on netflix instant mode, and it was good, but lost most of the glorious John Huston black and white landscape. Fascinating story of how greed works.
46 maxed out
watched also on netflix instant, also story of how greed works, but in a different, credit card company way
47 charlie barnett
high school fish out of water story, but still pretty good
48 central station
interesting childless woman and lost boy movie in Brazil, that doesn’t follow Hollywood formulas
49 penelope
tried to make christina ricci not cute, but didn’t really work.
can’t count sex & the city movie, fell asleep after the part where they were more interested in dresses and shoes than anything else.

40 once – watched in Chicago from laptop, and it was nice, but moved very slowly. irish music story that almost had love in it.
41 cry baby – johnathan waters beginning to get ready for hairspray, but not quite there yet. Rikki Lake is there already.
42 edward scissorhands – much more intense for the kids than I remembered. Most of the story is nice, but the climax was traumatic.

we had a meeting of twitter users “tweetup” in my area last night, and there were a bunch of interesting (and tech saavy) folks there. City of 250,000 or so, and 30 people showed up at a bar on a snowy night for the first one, so it was a success.
To find people, search twitter at
http://search.twitter.com
and put in your area. Maybe you will find someone.
