It was "Night at the Museum." I didn't like the experience much. I was sitting closer than I probably should have been, and my eyes kept wandering around the screen, not knowing where to settle.

As of tomorrow, folks in Australia are going to have the opportunity to see BBM outdoors!
It's one of the featured movies in their annual summer "Moonlight Cinema" program and will be shown in five cities: Adelaide, Brisbane, Melbourne, Perth and Sydney. Donnie Darko and Candy will be screened too, but not in all five cities.

On one hand, any kind of large-scale scenery is diminished on a smaller screen; we have a medium size one, about 25". But for me, the balance tilts a little toward the advantage of being able to view it whenever I want, replaying certain scenes and just the sentimental feeling of having Ennis and Jack in my house. (Yeah, I know that sounds a tad demented!)

Sounds perfectly sane to me, Marge! :)
