Everything is...like 3D, man.

Thought I better chime in for 2010. And I say twenty-ten, by the way, but that's another discussion.
Well if you haven't heard about Avatar, you've been hiding under a rock on Pandora. 3D is now becoming the standard with studios standing in line to make all of their movies in the format. Why? I'm fine with 2D for most features. 3D should be reserved for the eye-popping epics that deserve it. I don't really need to see something like The Hangover 2 in 3D and, what's this, George Lucas wants to transfer the Star Wars flicks to the format. The dude has totally wigged out (he's going to be remaking them till he dies).
Well, enough of that. Avatar was great, as was Sherlock Holmes. Robert Downey Jr. has really turned his life around in recent years. I always knew he could do it. Just check out Chaplin sometime.
Watched Moon with Sam Rockwell. Excellent job on that low budget gem. Saw Funny People and it didn't live up to its name. Viewed a handful of others over the past couple of months, but nothing too memorable.
The Wolfman is out with underwhelming reviews, but Percy Jackson looks to be doing well. Funny how Chris Columbus launched both Harry Potter and Percy. Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland will open soon. He needs a hit under his belt. I haven't been too impressed with him lately. Summer blockbusters will be here before you know it. Only 77 more days until Iron Man 2!
24 is back on the air and is another good season so far. Things really picked up when Manny Coto took over daily operations on the production a couple of seasons ago. Production has been halted for a week or so while Kiefer Sutherland undergoes an elective surgery to clean up a small ruptured cyst (Eww!). Also, LOST has returned for its final season and is starting to answer some questions. The new Fox action series, Human Target, is not bad and more new episodes of Fringe will be aired starting April 1st.
Still trying to make it through Dan Brown's new Book, The Lost Symbol. It's really good, trying to find the time to read it is the problem.
Well, hope all is well with you, my minions. Let me know if there is anything you'd like to hear me chat about. Later...
