H2O starring Paul Gross
It was pretty much your same old, same old (that’s same old2 for you math and science aficionados) kind of year at the movies. Although Shrek 2 and Spiderman 2 actually outdid all others at the Box Office, I am inclined to give my vote for best new movie to a different 2, in the form of “H2O”, a Canadian made-for-television mini-series with a dark and sinister (or what dark and sinister personalities who don’t normally comment publicly on movies – let alone Canadian movies – referred to as a “ludicrous and cheesy”) plot-line. I know there will be a lot of good (and bad) Christians out there who will be shouting on high, “Water you talking about heathen? Have you forgotten the Passion of Christ, and His ability to literally walk on (and, in box office terms, all over) H2O.” After careful consideration of the facts, I am still inclined to give the nod to H2O, if for no other reason than the fact that even God and His Christian Fundamentalists should only get one vote for their chosen one, and they already burnt it on G.W. Bush.
