It occurs to me that during a hectic day of work, picking up my 16 month old, going to the store, making spaghetti, cleaning spaghetti (thrown by 16 month old) off the carpet, dealing with a dog that has a skin allergy problem, and folding laundry I need to get back to my roots. Bad movies. I need to watch terrible movies and I need to do it STAT! So why not start with one filled with more crapola than yes dare I say it, Con-Air. That would be another gem staring Nic Cage, Drive Angry. It is no doubt one of the dumbest movies I have ever seen and I sat through Jason X at the Grand when it first came out. Upon further investigation the man who wrote and stared in Drive Angry also wrote and started in Jason X. Interesting?!? We know why Nicolas Cage made this movie, he is in a downward spiral of Hollywood stinkers. In fact the only person who made this movie bearable was William Fichtner. Even though I feel I am losing IQ points (I don't have may to spare mind you) while watching this movie I also feel a sense of the old Mel. I am making a promise to myself to try and watch two awful movies per week, then share my thoughts with you. I will also try and watch a few real ones inbetween the crud but I don't want to set my sights too high. Next post will be more detailed about the movie, family and friends. I promise! I must now get ready for bed and start the whole day over. Thank goodness for family, friends, movies and libations!
