I haven't seen the movie (nor read the book), but I just might go and watch Julia Roberts in Eat, Pray, Love for the fun of it. After all, a $10 movie ticket is cheaper than a $20 book, if I choose to leave before the end.
The usually stuffy National Post paid homage to the movie's release in Canada by heading all their movie reviews in the three-word style. Here are some funny examples (the italicized and bold section is the actual name of the movie currently playing):
- Sweet Delayed Stuff: the National Post's contribution to Eat, Pray, Love
- Geek, Play, Love: Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World.
- Defeat Stray Loves: Scott Pilgrim vs. the World (again!)
- Offbeat, Grey, Beloved: Joan Rivers - A piece of work
- Meat, Prey, Shove: The Expendables (with Sylvester Stallone)
- Swede Plays Tough: The Expendables (again!)
- Eat, Fillet, Love: Soul Kitchen
- Beat, Slay, Shove: Mesrine - Killer Instinct
- Bleak, G'day, Rough: Animal Kingdom (an Aussie movie)
- Elite Grave Buffs: Get Low (with Bill Murray)
- Sweet Sashay Above: If I knew What You Said
The National Post should now hold a competition for the best pre-title descriptor for a currently playing movie.
