I desperately clung on to The Practice and wished that people would have enough sense to tune in but sadly it was on it's way down the spiral staircase. ABC is desperate for a hit. I spent the entire weekend or at least what's left of it watching LOST to see what the hype was all about. This was, after all, ABC's saving grace. The premise might be interesting but can it really captivate an audience to keep tuning in every week just to find out what creature lurks in the island?
...And it does. The twists are interesting and the plot is definitely arresting although I don't agree with one twist as it just doesn't hold up. It was shocking but the motivation is not there. If you are fans of the series I'm talking about the revelation that Walt is responsible for the fire. I'm nearing the season finale and will soon return the borrowed DVDs to Mina.
Also had the chance to finally watch Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and I have to say that I loved the movie...at least until Charlie went to the factory. The movie was truthful to the book that when Grandpa Joe danced, it was exactly the same picture the readers saw. Charlie is endearing. However, the chocolate factory isn't as amazing, the oompa loompa is scary, the songs are forgettable with it's techno beat and the subplot on Willy Wonka's life is...well...something else. Where did that come from?
