My thanks to Don, again the funk decimator, for brightening up a dull work day (and you do know what all work and no play, or writing, makes Dennis, right?) with this powerful account of the summer’s biggest breakout star, Ken. He’s not just an accessory anymore. He’s his own man, and then some. If you don’t believe me, click play and start Groovin’ with Ken.
(This week leading up to July 4 finds Your Humble Narrator happy to say he’s loaded down with work. But he’s also loaded with things to write about and damn little time to do so. So come the end of the week (and maybe even before then) I'll have some new posts including a look at the summer so far, perhaps even some answers to the last quiz—- you know, the one I posted this past spring-- to keep at least myself, and hopefully you, amused in lieu of actual good movies to go out and see. I hear Tilda Swinton in I Am Love is a should-not-miss. And when a thing is as sure as Toy Story 3, why not see it again? I can’t wait.)

Who'd have thought that Ken would end up being one of the summer's most interesting characters, in the best movie of the year so far? For me, TOY STORY 3 may be this year's INGLOURIOUS BASTERDS, or SPEED RACER -- a film that offers, and defines, all the best possibilities of cinema. I can't wait to read your review, Dennis.
ReplyDeleteHa! That's awesome. I reckon I'd better get out and see TOY STORY 3, given Don's comments, and the fact that I tend to agree with you guys' likes (well, Dennis, except for some notable exceptions, as we know).
