The Bourne Ultimatum is not for newborns...

... in case you were wondering.

Ben and I caught up with Jason's latest shenanigans last night and we were not disappointed. Dizzy, perhaps, but not disappointed. I think they used magic to film certain scenes because I cannot imagine how else they got some of those camera angles or produced such quick cuts. But, since I haven't the foggiest idea of how to make a movie, period, they're all a bit magical to me. However, here's something that isn't so magical - bringing your baby (and by this I mean any child that can tell you how old s/he is with one hand) with you to an 11 0'clock show, and a pretty violent show at that. What are you people thinking?! Are you trying to provide me job security, because you're doing a pretty bang-up job of that. I'll probably see this kid in therapy in a few years. What business does a toddler have at a movie like this? Better yet, what business do you have being a parent if this is a viable option for kiddy entertainment? Seriously!

Okay. Rant over. Maybe it's because I just spent the last two weeks learning about abuse and addiction and I'm a bit sensitive to the topic. Maybe it's because I'm reminded of the girls at Rapha House who don't even have a choice but to be subjugated to such violence. Maybe I'm avoiding writing the first of my five final papers. Or maybe I'm just grumpy.
