Here's how I see Shrek: a movie for adults with a story simple enough that kids can follow along. Many of the jokes are funny, but also predictable. In a way, my favorite part of these movies is picking out all the anachronisms and other things from modern life that don't fit into the world of Ever After. I didn't like the music, but not because it was bad, just because I didn't like any of it. The animation and especially the body language and expressive faces were absolutely top-notch. The 3D effects were also quite satisfying and they didn't try distracting you with it more than two or three times. In the end, I think it hit its mark for being exactly what you'd expect it to be, though I feel I have to knock it down a peg for also focusing on a story only adults can relate to, while also making that story so simplistic that it's tough to really care.

@alibakes Haywire is a sparse little covert thriller featuring a smooth jazz score. I can't think of anything else to say about it.

@dcorsetto For the record, I'm more grossed out by pooping. And war. War and pooping, mostly.

@wired I only use Gmail to manage my Contacts. Today was the first time I had seen the new interface. I couldn't find the Contacts.

Twitter ran out of "who to follow" recommendations for me. I should probably turn the Internet off now.
