![]() Whatever Works $27.96 This is the last time I fork out for a Woody Allen movie without knowing anything about the movie first. I'm afraid his credit no longer runs. I have never panned a Woody film before, but this takes the can. Vicky Christina Barcelona was bad enough. Time to hang up the camera and go fishing, Mr. Konigsberg. This film was buttock clenchingly awful, from the wooden masturbatory fantasy of a plot to the painful effort of the lead to be Woody Allen. I felt sorry for the actors, especially Evan Rachel Wood. Annie Hall it wasn't. ![]() Curb Your Enthusiasm: The Complete Seventh Season $39.98 Now that Season 7 has aired all its episodes I wanted to give my two cents. I enjoyed this season more than the last two (Season 1 was still the best). When Season 6 concluded many of us thought that was going to be the grand finale of the show. With Cheryl finally having enough of Larry's antics, pairing up with the underwear salesman who befriended her in her time of great fear (Larry was too busy with the TIVO guy at the time) and Larry settled in with Loretta and the rest of the Blacks. Well Larry got the itch to do a type of Seinfeld reunion show to make up for the disappointing ending of the original series. He put together the idea that this could be used as a platform to get Cheryl back. As the series started, we see Larry bored with Loretta and trying to get out of the relationship. Larry learns that Loretta may have cancer prompting Jeff to let him know that he better break up with her before she tells him because "you can't break up with someone with cancer." It then becomes a race with Larry to get to Loretta before her doctor so he can break up with her before the doctor gives her the devastating news. (brilliant writing). Usual battles with Susie and Marty Funkhouser crop up during the season. Episodes that followed dealt with Larry dating women in wheelchairs that he has code names for, killing the country club owner's pet swan and a lesson in proper tipping. To top it off Larry tries to get the Seinfeld cast together only because he meets Cheryl on the way to an audition and he feels that if can give her a part in the show he can slowly win her back. For those have you that have not seen it I do not want to spoil the fun. I will say that the last two episodes dealt with the actual Seinfeld reunion and the show will definately not disappoint like the original series ending from 1999. If you have a chance to watch some of these episodes and you like Seinfeld, I would recommend that you watch them! ![]() The Prescription for the Church $12.99 This is not the Larry David people think it is. This is Larry's first and David his middle name. In James 1:22 Scripture tell's us "Be ye doers of the Word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves". How can we be doers of the Word of God if we are not hearing it from the pulpit? Larry has layed the foundation, "the Word of God". This is a must read book that is provocative, but again, God's message to His Bride, to whom He is preparing without spot or wrinkle, for His return. Pastors, Priests, Ministers and Teachers need to be teaching the Body of Christ this Prescription. The Scripture used will cleanse out the spots and iron out the wrinkles preparing us for His return.
