I took in two movies this weekend!
The first one --- The X-Files: I Want to Believe
Dir: Chris Carter Stars: David Duchovny, Gillian Anderson
Synopsis: Mulder and Scully are back, working with the FBI to solve a case involving a missing agent, a bunch of body parts, and a disgraced psychic priest. This movie is not based on the alien conspiracy storyline that ran through the series.

Last week, Christian Bale was a clean cut, respected method actor, and about to release one of the biggest movies of all time (The Dark Knight, for anyone living under a rock). This week, he's the center of several controversies.
Dir: Chris Nolan Stars: Christian Bale, Heath Ledger, Maggie Gyllenhall, Aaron Eckhart, Gary Oldman, Michael Caine, Morgan Freeman
In preparation for the new Batman movie, I thought it might be fun to see what everyone thinks about the Batman movie franchises past and present (These are not in order of appearance).

If you consider yourself a movie geek and a foodie, and you'll be in Saskatoon on Wednesday July 9th, you'll want to check out Taste of Broadway! It's a fundraiser for the Broadway Theatre, where they'll serve fine wines, incredible food from some of Broadway's top restaurants, as well as a special screening of a famous foodie movie, Tampopo --- the first Japanese Noodle Western!
