Doctor's Appointment?
Oct. 12th, 2005 08:18 amGoing to the Doctor today I hope. We also have to take Caroline and Ariel as well since as a group the hacking and wheezing is getting worse. Caroline and Ariel have to see the pediatrician and I have to see our GP. So that's trying to get 3 appointments that don't conflict with each other. On top of that it is raining and very windy. Such a pleasant day to be doing all this especially with an almost 3 year-old. Not that it is going to get much better before the weekend. I keep telling myself that we did need the rain.
Caroline will be 3 in less than 2 months. Time flies when you have a kid. She went to bed late last night. Actually she went to bed on time but didn't fall asleep until late. I could hear her playing quietly in her crib with her stuffed animals.
It is a good season for fans of stop motion animation. Both Corpse Bride and Wallace and Gromit have done well at the box office proving that 3-D animation while enjoyable is not the only game in town. Peter and I were happy to see that Curious George was being done in a classic animation style. Old school still works.
Movie Studios are waking up to the fact that a bomb in America might not be a total bomb. There have been several movies that did OK to terrible in the US that either recouped or almost recouped solely on the foreign market. Both Kingdom of Heaven and The Island did much better overseas than here. The studios are learning to tailor their marketing campaigns for the areas that they are in rather than take the US version and just change the typeface on the poster. Which does make for some neat posters.
I am grateful for stop motion animation.
