movie haiku

In honor of the Sci Fi Channel’s annual New Year’s Eve marathon: All day Twilight Zone Getting my little mind blown Half hour by half hour

Palette of color Visual, emotional Immersed in story

One in a series of TV-ku: Crystal-clear golf match High-def makes me watch programs I don’t even like

Talkers. Loud eaters. Texters. Seat kickers. No free Seats to escape them.

Floor of the theater Slickened with new-spilled butter On years-smoothed old floors

Name that movie: Best flick for Christmas? I triple dog dare you to Take a wild guess… (100 haikus! woo-hoo!)

Can he do it with The Great Debaters? Movies for dummies: Denzel pumps fist in the air Oscar comes calling

What do critics know? We can’t even agree on Best films of the year (We’re all over the place…)

Awards screeners cry: “Just one more before you make Your top 10 final!”

Reshuffle the discs Floor to shelf to floor. When will I watch all of them?
