Before Bed

I didn't watch Julia Child's show, but all the tributes to her -- and this interview -- have made me want to. I wonder if they'll release it on DVD?

When Krista and I went to the movies recently, I made an excited noise when I saw the standee for Seed of Chucky (link goes to the trailer). A little embarrassing, yes, but what the heck, I've already said I want to watch The Pirate Movie. Krista made the insightful observation that the more theory one reads, the more one wants to watch pleasantly stupid movies. Having been bolstered by this validation, I believe I'll rent both The Pirate Movie and Bride of Chucky tomorrow evening. I've seen Child's Play 1, 2, and 3, but not Bride of Chucky, and I want to respect the narrative sequence.

I agree that the more theory

I agree that the more theory you read the more stupid movies you want to watch. And for me, the more theory I read, the more trashy novels I want to read, especially trashy science fiction. Hannah

Cogent Stupidity

Hell yes! One must respect the narrative sequence of Chucky!

Glorious Bride of Chucky

I watched it this afternoon, and it exceeded my expectations. Not only did it have its delightfully cheesy parts (the sex scene between the two dolls, for example), but the intertextuality and self-referentiality were great. I'll see Seed of Chucky for sure...but then I'm one of those people who goes and sees all those campy slasher movies (Freddy vs. Jason, Jason X, etc.) in the theater.

The Seed Of Chucky

make sure you don't watch that movie unprotected
