So -- when a philosopher has a quiet weekend, with papers to work on and laundry to do, what does she do but go to Blockbuster for some movies... 6 movies.
"United 93", "Ice Princess" (because I used to be a figure skater long ago...) "Akeelah and the Bee" and "Bee Season" (because my spelling is awful and kids in spelling bees remind me of debaters and there is only one movie about college debate...), "Rumor Has It" and "40-year old virgin" because they looked kind of fun.
I'm not at all sure which ones to watch first -- but I did get some odd looks from the guy at the movie store.

What's the movie about college debate? Have you seen Thumbsucker? I liked it and it had high school debating in it.
Yea, go rent Thumbsucker...Lin Liu, a Willamette debater, is in it. Or you could just watch Listen to Me again. :-)
I was surprised by just how much I like Akeelah and the Bee .. it's that rare breed of family film that is as entertaining as it is enlightening
