10:15pm – “I Love You to Death”, 1990

We just discussed our ratings of today’s movies. There was quite a lot of dissention about the rating for “Life Under Water.” I do not think that it is a [whoooooa!], but both Carla and Matt did. I liked the movie a lot and it was quite a nugget of wonder, but I would not say that it is the reason we ‘Thon. Although there is some certainty from some of us that Jeff will come around on repeated viewings.

Ahhh… Marlon & Harlan. Keanu looks sorta like Todd Graff (but in really not good shape) in this

Not much Keanu in this one, but still viewed by us (and perhpas only us) as very worthwhile. Much hilarity, sobre todo Keanu.

Jeff snoozes before Keanu’s first moments (playing pool, kind of) onscreen.

Although much is made of the Keanu/River friendship, My Own Private Idaho is the movie almost exclusively mentioned, but this gem was their first movie together. Earlier in the day – I might be able to stretch this thought to make an actual point, but I think I’m as tired as Jeff (who still sleeps).

“Harland, man, I can’t watch” – which is more or less how I felt about the horrible “Keanu: unauthorized Biography” (as i belabor the point to flogging an old dead horse) – but it was BAD.

How redundant is the statement: “Keanu is really good in this” – and you can not get much more completely different than “Life Under Water”

Thinking about having a MidnightMatrixMiniMarathon (takeoff on the yet-to-come Breakfast with Bill & Ted), if only to avoid having to watch them in their entirety.

Based on past Keanu movie titles, one might be able to call this “Act of Vengence 2: Wacky Time!” both feature Keanu as a hitman (working in a team), are based on a real story, have leading characters with goofy accidents, and feature our accosted, accented stars being shot in bed (albeit with decidedly different results). Thusly, we are eagerly awaiting the spiritual sequel to “Brotherhood of Wacky Vigilantes” or “River’s Wacky Edging Time” or “One Step Away From Canadian Wacky Teens” or “Under the WACKY!” and many, many more. We’ll work on scripts and plot outlines later. Wackiness seems integral (at least in these treatments or in the titles of these treatments). Perhaps just wackiness up to a point. Up to a point.

11:51pm – It’s over; Day II is over. I’m heading off to bed. ‘night.
