bad movies, good music and trees

So…I can’t remember what I watched yesterday morning, because it was a busy day, so hopefully if I see it again I will remember, but if not, oh well!  That is the problem with watching so many docs everyday…I am having a hard time keeping them all separate in my mind.  I have had to start writing the blurbs as I am watching, or directly after so as to not mess them up. 

Today’s first flight of fancy is The 50 Worst Movies Ever Made.  YAY! This is silly, it’s a countdown of the worst movies.  Troll is only number 48, so this could really get bad.  Oh wow, the title doesn’t lie.  These movies are b a d! Firebird 2015 looks funny…and set so close to now.  Ok, Xanadu is not a bad movie.  It is an awesome movie.  I need to check when this movie was made, because all of the really bad movies are from the pre-2000, and there have been some really bad movies made since then.  The winner for worst movie?? The Incredibly Strange Creatures Who Stopped Living and Became Mixed-Up Zombies.  I think I will have to agree with them on this. 

Next up is Who Is Harry Nilsson (and Why Is Everyone Talkin’ Bout Him?).  Harry Nilsson is a songwriter/singer who wrote some of the most beautiful songs from I remember from when I was growing up.  I think this movie is something like a “Behind the Music”.  It is so amazing how many songs this man wrote! It’s like every song I am thinking “really? This one too?”  This is one of the best docs I have seen in a while.  Close to two hours long but really engaging. 

National Geographic: Climbing Redwood Giants is another National Geographic movie.  They are always interesting and beautiful, but I get a little bored with the lack of action.  The trees are amazing of course, I miss Northern Cali.  Hell, I just wish the PNW.  All in all, it’s a national geo movie and it’s good if you are looking.  Note: People who climb the giant redwoods are nuts! “After a nasty day of bushwhacking, Faye declares victory”…hahahaha. The redwoods are growing faster than humans are removing them! YAY!

I had a bad afternoon, and then watched Hoarders. :D
