Gigantic (2008)

i liked this movie well enough. first of all it stars Zooey Deschanel & Paul Dano from Little Miss Sunshine (2006). it also star's Ed Asner, the voice of the main character in Up (2009), and John Goodman.

the plot is a little weird. even though i have been watching diligently i feel like i'm missing something. and the pacing gives off the same feeling, lots of akward moments.

some scenes have really interesting angles.

i guess it's a movie that's supposed to make you think?

not really important but i love love love zooey deschanel's wardrobe in it.

okay, so up to this point i was blogging while watching.

i just stopped and finished it.

and i still have no idea whats going on,

but i love the ending!

Mrs. Weathersby: He's been sweet his whole life, but he never had the family the other kids did. Everyone thought that we were his grandparents. He told his teacher once that his real parents died in a car crash and his grandparents took him on. 
Happy: He did? 
Mrs. Weathersby: Well he was confused, I guess. I don't blame him. It wasn't disloyal, it was, he was just trying to make everything seem normal I suppose. But, nothing's normal. 
Happy: You guys seem pretty normal. 
Mrs. Weathersby: We're not. You have a right to be worried and afraid. 
Happy: I'm just afraid that I've fucked everything up beyond repair. 
Mrs. Weathersby: Nothing's fucked up, nothing's beyond repair. 
Happy: Thank you. 

and then they smack a pinata around and an animal collective song comes on.

now i think that is a good movie
