What Movies Have You Seen Lately?
For folks who've already seen Iron Man 3 or don't plan on seeing it, here's a very funny short on "How It Should Have Ended." Spoilers!

The 25th Anniversary Concert of Les Miserables. Thought I was moving the movie version up in my queue. Lighting is awesome and the cast was great. Anyway, I loved it and now I'm looking forward to the movie even more.
The downside is that I'm singing the songs constantly--a problem because I don't know all the words yet and my husband finds it annoying. I know some of the songs because I grew up singing them, but the rest is new to me.

Faith, if you liked the 2009 outing, this one is even better. It is a ball for anyone - and, speaking as a lifelong Trek nerd, for the fans, it's a *gift*. It's worth seeing on the big screen!

I did like the first reboot. Thought it quite imaginative and reached beyond the Trekker fan base. Speaking of which, if you haven't seen this video yet, I highly recommend it. I don't usually repost links to commercials because...well...they're commercials, but this "Spock vs. Spock" spot is a hoot:
