"You look like a radioactive tampon... like a banana with a yeast infection" 
One and a quarter thumbs up - for once however I wish there was more psychological tension.

Superbad

Rain yelped 'Evan!' in the perfect Becca tone before movie-Becca did. It was so funny.
Two thumbs up - yes these background viewings count because you KNOW we are listening and stifled laughing in the lead-up to our favourite lines (all of them). Be glad I didn't count the time we watched it on one fifth of the TV size with no sound (watch party fundraiser) only because we stopped after like 40 minutes because we got tired. 

Tampopo

It's like the '22 Short Films about Springfield' episode of the The Simpsons. Except that there were a number of curve-ball short films (and one long slow zoom) that I did not expect in a film about ramen. 
One and three quarters thumbs up - might be hastily a bit too positive but whatever! I was all 'hand them the two-thumbs-up' during the ramen storyline which was just the sweetest adorable Ghibli-esque thing. But then the salt and lemon (and lemon seeds??) happened and then my soul retched a bit at the prawns, and egg yolk. So yeah slight downgrade. But it's still good, it's still good!!
