The Silence Between Words

FINALLY ARRIVED!!!!!!!!!  I woke up at 9:30 and rushed out to Target to get my Season Five of 24 DVD's. No waiting for Christmas, no waiting for Amazon to ship it out, just all that 24 goodness in less than five minutes :)  I was so anxious to check out that small little box of wonderful delights that I opened it in the car on the way home while getting breakfast at McDonald's.  And much to my surprise, Greg AND Jean were on each cover of the little DVD cases inside the box.  Audrey and Jack were on the other two.  *squeals* However the best of all best best parts were the extras and the commentaries.  First I watched the bonus DVD that came with Target's package and it had an old interview with Greg, Jean, and Kiefer as well as elected government officials at some sort of town meeting.  Kiefer was so funny as he said a lady was looking at him on the plane the whole time until he leaned over and assured her "it's just a TV show".  Then she just sat back and smiled as if a big weight had been taken off her shoulders *giggles*  Another classic moment happened after Kiefer said how he could relate to the show because he has a daughter and then Jean talked about her own son.  When it was Greg's time to speak, he said he agreed with what Kiefer said and Jean turned and asked "And not what I said?" He smiled and said "Of course, what you said too, dear."  And she just gave him this wounded look while rolling her eyes.  Greg smiles and says "thats my wife." They are so good together!!


Today I also watched Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest.  The graphics were very good...the story not as good as the last one BUT I did like the romantic tension between Jack and Elizabeth.  There's definitely something there.  And her betrayal of him at the end shows that she does have a pirate's soul and I think Jack loved her even more for that.  This really is a romantic triangle brewing!!  The guy who played Will's father should get an Academy Award nomination...the emotions playing through his eyes was SIMPLY amazing.  The way he changed his voice during various scenes and showed all sides of his personality at just the right times was brilliant!  The Kraken was VERY satisfying to watch and Davey Jones was an admirable opponent but I really liked how the bad guy from the last movie showed up at the end to captain their next voyage to find Jack. It's going to be one heck of an adventure!


And that's all for now...I wish I could have had time to scan the covers of the DVD but that will have to wait till another time.  Here's my parting screenshot for the night!

Stay away, Mike, if you know what's good for you...I'm not in the mood tonight to play games.
