We Are Floating In Space: Weekend Rewind

This past weekend: BART rides, 1 hour long dance parties in San Jose, vintage clothing, random run-ins, running out of gas, trekking through The Hills Have Eyes, a futile attempt at a Blow Up drive-by, longings for bacon-covered hot dogs, Safeway at 3 am, the discovery that you can make your own peanut butter at said Safeway, crepes & frites, my 1st IMAX experience, empty bars, 330 Rich, Patron shots and the tipsy dancing that followed, after parties that went nowhere, 3 am Super burritos, Potrero Hill, an elusive 6 am after party which we didn't make, and getting home at 6:15 in the morning.

I watched the movie, Blindness on Thursday night and I have one recommendation: DO NOT GO SEE THIS MOVIE. Save your $10 for 10 double cheeseburgers or 2 beers in the clurb or anything else your heart desires, just don't see this movie. I was expecting some type of suspense-filled thriller type movie a la M. Night Shyamalan but I was wrong. Julianne Moore and Mark Ruffalo couldn't even save this movie from it's awful plot and message. The gist: There is an outbreak of blindness and those afflicted have been quarantined by the government. Eventually the whole world goes blind except for Julianne Moore's character. What follows is a look at human nature when all sight (including moral) is taken away.

If you want to watch a real thriller I would recommend Eagle Eye starring Shia LaBeouf and Michelle Monaghan instead. (Julianne Moore is also in this film as the voice of ARIA, though she is uncredited.)
