What I Watched, What You Watched #218

I’m not sure what happened last week, but participation in the “What I Watched” column was minimal at best. Did no one actually watch anything or do I need to once again threaten to turn this car around?

No matter, we’ll figure that out soon enough, as for what I watched this week, I caught Thor: The Dark World (read my review here) and The Book Thief (read my review here) in theaters and at home I finally watched Nicole Holofcener‘s Enough Said, which I’m a little surprised at how much everyone loved it. I can see a little more respect for it given its adult themes and screenwriting, but it’s still a romantic dramedy that hinges on a secret that will soon come to light and the question of what will happen with the relationships once it does. Pretty standard stuff if you ask me.

I also happened to watch the second half of Maverick and the first half of John Carter on Friday evening on Encore. Maverick is a film I actually quite like and while watching John Carter I still can’t quite believe how badly it tanked. It was only the second time I’d watched it and it certainly has its flaws, but wow was it a bust. Also, it was the last major feature film Lynn Collins worked on. Was it a film so bad as to stop her career in its tracks?

Well, that does it for me. I went to the UW Huskies football game yesterday and today it’s all NFL, what are you watching and what did you watch these last seven days?
