So we tried watching the Australian Open women's finale and we lasted all but 2 minutes, the moaning and groaning from both women whenever they hit the ball was just too aggravating, just couldn't do it.
We watched
Russell Peters' latest standup comedy show
The Green Card Tour - Live from The O2 Arena, and while it may not be his best show it's quite amazing how he interacts and feeds off the public.
Just saw this
trailer for
Lock-Out, starring Guy Pearce, and while it's probably nothing to go see in the theater, it does look like a good sci-fi popcorn flick to watch on DVD

Not sure if we're going to be watching any tennis this weekend now that our favorite Kim Clijsters has been ousted. We watched the Federer vs. Nadal match yesterday, so that highlight of the tournament is also over with, and we're definitely not watching the two biggest squealers in the sport play. My ears are bleeding just thinking about that match.
Guess we'll have a nice relaxing weekend, watch some Netflix, DVR, and maybe go check out
Red Tails.
