Josh & Josh are Rich and Famous: Movies Monday

Movies Monday

* The trailer for Running with Scissors is finally out, and I have to say that it looks like it could be good. The movie has some serious star power (Annette Bening, Gwyneth Paltrow, Joseph Fiennes, Evan Rachel Wood, Alec Baldwin, Kristin Chenowith, etc.), and with a script based on Augusten Burroughs' national bestseller, this could be a hot ticket when it comes out on July 28th.

* I can't wait to see Little Miss Sunshine. I've been waiting for this one since I saw the preview two months ago. This is the kind of smart, semi-dark comedy that I want to see. It opens July 26th.

* I don't know if I'm ready for this movie to be coming out. I still contend that it's too soon for the onslaught of these movies.

* A movie called 300, a Roman era action/drama based on the graphic novels of Frank Miller (remember Sin City last year?), has plentiful numbers of menfolk wearing very little. (via Andy)

Running With Scissors is going to be FANTASTIC!

I too am anxious for Little Miss Sunshine. With that cast, it has to just be great.

I'm fairly certain that Sunshine will indeed turn out to be a great little flick, but I'll probably have to wait for DVD to find out .. even with that great cast, this one is apparently headed to rather limited release far from my little corner of the world

The Weekend Ingredients: Sushi and fresh fruit in Central Park, a couple DVDs (Green Street Hooligans--Charlie Hunnam, yum--and Munich), the Brooklyn Museum and Botanical Gardens, naptime, dinner in Chelsea, brunch in Williamsburg, and writing time with Kirsten (whom I love, for obvious reasons). --Josh H.

And Then There Was One So, check this one out: Today everybody in my department was fired. Except me. (And except the director of our department, who did the firing.) I am also the least senior person on the staff, and the youngest employee in the entire organization. I am now the proud owner of all my normal job responsibilities, plus sizeable chunks of three other positions. I am officially the last man standing. --Josh H.
