Yesterday included the first of many Regal Cinemas Summer Movie Express showings that Molly and I will be attending this summer. Tuesday and Wednesday, 10:00, some flick that's already on DVD for $1. We chose to see "Ice Age: Continental Drift" which SO FAILED the Bechdel Test! It made me all squirmy and ashamed that I was taking my daughter to it :( Female characters were only there to either love the man, or talk about how they love the man. I could almost see the message saturating itself in to Molly's subconscious, "Oh so when I get older everything I do will be about trying to get a boy to love me! Got it! I'll have no identity of my own! HOORAY!"

Little things every day make me realize just how extremely lucky I am to be an overweight, white, borderline-poverty level, American, heterosexual, middle-aged man. I have the easiest, most care-free kind of life that anyone on this planet can possibly have.

Already saw it, it' already a big joke in our family about how terrible it was! Like, hey it was *pretty* and all, but c'mon... the most powerful woman in Oz is helpless without a con-man? And the most evil person only becomes evil after ONE DAY with The Man? ANd she needs a BOOB WINDOW IN HER PURITAN SCHOOLMARM WITCH OUTFIT?!?!? And the PORCELAIN GIRL!!! WOMEN ARE SO FRAGILE!!!

Okay, I'm getting all ragey now... need to breathe...
