Wild At Heart
Despite our falling over the fiscal cliff thanks to the idiots on Capitol Hill, it has been a pretty decent week. Why is it that politicians ask us daily to make the tough choices and hard sacrifices but frequently fall down when they have to do it themselves?
Well it is now officially 2013 and I think I might be the first blog posted on the new year. That is basically because I really found nothing interesting to do tonight except hit a couple of great films. "Wreck-It Ralph" is not only a great film for you video gamers out there, but it might be one of the best films of the year. The idea of video game characters interacting with other games is not a new idea but I have never seen it so realized and funny.
Then I saw "Flight" which I wasn't too keen on but it turned out to be an amazing film which should revitalize my opinion of director Zemeckis (his last good film was probably Gump) and gives another great performance by Denzel. Who would think a movie about an alcoholic pilot would be so engaging but it really doesn't miss a step. Two great films to see in a year when it seemed like things were so slow but has really stepped it up this holiday season by putting out a lot of very good films.
I hope everyone has a truly wonderful 2013 and here are a few shows to start it off:
Thursday (1/03) - Brothers Groove @ Northern Lights Lounge
Friday (1/04) - "Anti-Freeze Blues Festival" with Savoy Brown and Laith Al Saadi @ Magic Bag
