We bought the latest Futurama movie last Tuesday. It was about as funny as the last one, which means it wasn't as funny as the TV show, but there were still plenty of laugh-out-loud moments. The problem with the movies is that they don't pack as many jokes into the time as they would into four equivalent episodes. The Futurama staff is funniest when they're constrained by twenty-two minutes. Not that I won't be rewatching the movie and soon, most likely. But I wish they'd go back to doing episodes.
Speaking of movies, I'm hitting the theaters this weekend to see Angelina Jolie's new movie,
Wanted. (Hey, anyone remember when Ms. Jolie was wild and ever-so-slightly insane instead of the sedate mother of five who gives millions to charity? I like this version better.)
