My Cousins Review 'Oz the Great and Powerful'

Oz the Great and Powerful

I really couldn't think of anything to say about Sam Raimi's Oz the Great and Powerful. Even after seeing it twice, I just feel kind of 'meh' about the whole thing. I think that the film had beautiful parts, that James Franco was inconsistently interesting, that the Tim-Burton-Alice-in-Wonderland aesthetic felt overplayed, and that Michelle Williams was lovely, but I couldn't figure out how to bring those ideas into a cohesive review. So, I enlisted my cousins (Ages 12 and 10, respectively) to review the film for me.  They are, as always, better at this than I am (MAJOR SPOILERS BELOW):

Happy Birthday, Liza Minnelli!

Liza Minnelli turns 67 years old today (67 with a V).  I've been thinking of her a lot lately, what with Arrested Development coming back and Oz the Great and Powerful being in theaters. Plus, one time I swear I saw her driving a UPS truck in central Indiana, and I love a girl who delivers mail. So, the least I can do is draw a picture of her saying my favorite line from one of my favorite movies, Arthur:

Happy Birthday, LM!
