Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen
Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. DNF, technically. About what I expected, only louder. I wouldn’t have screened it if it were my choice, but this was part of Atlanta’s Screen on the Green, which, this year’s mostly crappy movie selection aside (bring back TCM!), is usually nice when there are no real-life fisticuffs. Come on, Atlanta. Let’s do this right.
King Cotton March. So apparently John Philip Sousa’s ♫ King Cotton March premiered in Atlanta. It was written for the the 1895 Cotton States and International Exposition, one of a few, which took place where the lovely Piedmont Park now lies. Awesome. (via)
