Book of the Month
Y The Last Man Vol. 5In this final Deluxe Edition hardcover collecting Y #49-60, Yorick and Agent 355 prepare for their ultimate quest to reunite the last man with his lost love, while the person, people or thing behind the disaster that wiped out half of humanity is revealed. Then, Yorick Brown's long journey through an Earth populated only by women comes to its dramatic, unexpected conclusion.
***I Love Anne Hathaway. LOVE her. Will see anything she’s in. The trailer for “Love and Other Drugs” had me…….until it turned out she was sick. ARG! This suddenly became “A Walk to Remember” and 100 other movies I’ve seen. Oh well. It might still work as a rental.
***Darren Aronofsky is an amazing director. And while this looks like it could be a great film and Natalie Portman is brilliant, it also looks typically intense and difficult to watch, like other Darren Aronofsky films.
The Yogi Bear trailer made me cringe.
The idea behind My Soul To Take reminds me of Nightmare on Elm Street 2.
Black Swan looks amazing to me. I am definitely a fan of Aronofsky though, so take that as you will.
Love and Other Drugs looks like it could be good, but it will probably depend heavily on whether you like the cast or not.
How Do You Know looks boring to me.
