Cowboys and Aliens

Yesterday I attended the movie, Cowboys and Aliens, as a movie reviewer for my brother's website, www.silverscreenhub.com. I liked the movie and was particularly impressed with the casting because there was a dog in a prominent role in the film. As usual, the dog does not get the proper credit for his (in my opinion) Oscar calibre performance.

There were some previews before the movie and it is those that I want to discuss. One was for the movie, Shark Week 3D which is already playing in theatres. I thought this was one of the dumbest movie trailers that I have seen in a long time. A group of young humans get to go on a trip to an island which promises to be loads of fun. However, that fun is shattered when a shark showed up to harass the youngsters. I can tell you that the reason it stars humans and not dogs is that the humans are idiots! If it were a group of dogs, when the first dog was attacked, then the rest of them would stay out of the water. Of course, the humans have no brains so they are still hanging out in the water waiting for the shark to eat them. I can understand if they were dealing with one of the land sharks from the old Saturday Night Live television program. Those land sharks on there were tricky. They used to come to the door and say they had a candy gram knowing that the humans can't resist candy!!!

The other movie is based on the best selling book by Demon Flash Bandit with a screenplay by Demon Flash Bandit, and that movie is Contagion. Okay, I really didn't write it and my humans have no plans to go and see it, but the virus is the bird flu so it is something that I might have written had not some human beat me to it. I don't plan to see it since I don't think that, even after the birds are clearly at fault, the film just doesn't seem so interesting.

I hope you had a nice weekend, and I'll be back tomorrow!
