This weekend I watched the new version of "The Phantom of the Opera." It was very good. The music was outstanding. The songs are still running through my head. All of the words now make sense to me. It had a satisfying ending. However, for the record, it is way to intense for children.
My project for the weekend was to catalog all of the movies we have recorded off TV to DVD so I know which ones we have and which ones we don't. Our large VHS collection is beginning to deteriorate (physically) due to age. We might have to burn some old VHS movies directly to DVD, but we will lose a lot of quality by doing this. I'd rather just get new versions if possible. I have cable TV at my Olympia home so the quality is usually better than the old antenna recorded ones anyway.
It was rather fun seeing what (mostly) my sister had selected to record. It was mainly old movies...things like "The Thin Man" series, Abbott and Costello, very old Roy Rodgers movies, etc. There were quite a few that she couldn't remember why she recorded them and hadn't taken time yet to watch them. So I have added to my weekend project list looking up the old movies and finding out what they are about for our video library database.
My brother (bless his heart) is working on putting together an online version of the video library database so I (and others) can see what we have (and what we don't have) from anywhere. Some day we would like to let our friends view our video list online and pick out a movie to watch. Lots of fun!
