Good evening my faithful droogies.
Michele and I went out tonight to dinner and saw Bubba Ho-tep. The girls were at home with our kick-ass sitter Rachel and we had the evening to ourselves.
Bubba Ho-tep takes place in a rest home where Elvis and JFK run into some strange ocurrances and decide they need to ‘Take care of business’.
The movie is enjoyable for the comedy value but also for it’s take on the concerns of old age. Ossie Davis steals the show with his acting as Bruce Campbell is hampered by his makeup.
I did expect a little more turns or twists to the plot, but not every movie can be a thriller. Even so, I heartly recommend this movie to everyone. And do yourself a favor, go see this one in a theater. It’s dark and there are scary moments best experienced outside the couch of your living room. DVDs are nice and all for romantic comedies, but Bubba Ho-tep deserves your trip to the movieplex.
After the movie, we had the freedom to do pretty much anything. Since we are a boring married couple, we went to Target so Michele could buy a new ironing board. We should have gone to a bar and done shots instead.
I hope I can squeeze in seeing Kill Bill this weekend as well. Looks tasty.

You guys should go do Jell-O shots one night out.
Eat some tapas at the Tapas restaurant in Universal City Walk ~ then go do Jell-O shots! XD
While the kick-ass sitter stays at home with the kiddies – begging them not to lick the sugar off of their plates. =^-^=
i saw bubba hotep this weekend and laughed when he was talking about his penis. but all in all i think i wasted 8 bucks. i love bruce cambell but was dissapointed in the movie as a whole.
Bubba Hotep was pretty much everything that I expected it to be except for the lame ass fight scenes with the Fricken Mummy. I loved the parts with Bruce Campbell and Ossie Davis interacting with each other and would roll with laughter everytime Elvis was perplexed on the wierd Pus Boil on his Pecker! All in all a funny movie, but I still was hopeing for a little more in the end. I agree with what was said about all that Makeup hampering Campbells acting skills and usual hillarious facial expressions.
This was the best movie I ever saw………….Academy Award winner all the way!!!!
This was every bit as good as Endless Love.
