19. I'm judging it by the movie preview I saw when seeing Harry Potter.

I avoid the MSM in this country for the most part, other than local news from The Houston Press (a fairly liberal rag, by the way ;))

I was completely turned off by the character of Julie. I simply did not care about her. I have never read her blog and really, who cooks every recipe in any cookbook, one a day? She could have just have easily picked up "Joy of Cooking" and done the same, though it certainly would have taken her longer than a year to accomplish that, and who knows how much wasted food and money.

Meryl Streep's portrayal of a cooking icon we all know and love was spot on. Why not dump the dual-story format and make the movie about Julia? I'd be very excited about seeing that :D
