movies, movies and more movies.....

ok, so there are all the sudden a plethora of films that i want to experience on the big screen.......p&p, now that critics have acknowledged that no film could surpass the book........and memoirs of a geisha......which was a fascinating read, but i am confident that the elegance of japanese culture will be breathtaking to behold on screen......and brokeback mountain.......which i find intriguing because of the storyline....and the adaptation of a short story......for the record.....i find the crafting of the short story to be a separate art form.....to pull off a plot in as few pages as possible......more pleasurable to read and savor in one sitting.......and then there is the chronicles of narnia......childhood favorites to many......a series that i have yet to embrace.......must be an aquired taste.....the reviewers seemed to favor the book over the movie despite a valient effort.......and will i make it to any or all of these films.....?that is the essential question here......for i might just prefer to see hp again locally before i drive out of town to see any of the above films........reflecting, i contend that this film was better than the book.........fewer subplots and head-on thrills.......
