Well, I'm a conan fan, so I've always got my eye out . But yeah, that was a little lower than disappointing.
Just got back from 3:10 to Yuma, though. Good stuff. Anyone seen Seraphim Falls? Another pretty good western. Saw a preview for a turn of the century "oil boom" western starring Daniel Day Lewis. Looks good too. |

Collateral
All i've heard for the past 3yrs is how great this movie was. And this is going to seem strange, but i just thought the movie was ok, but i think it was my favorite role by Tom Cruise and Jamie Foxx. Weird. 25th Hour Solid. If you're familiar and/or like Spike Lee movies, it's spot on. Ed Norton is the man. Rosario Dawson looks good. The Hunted Good B movie.

Resident Evil and sequels on the tube.....
not the most intellectually stimulating movies ever made, but solid good fun sci fi--Mila Jovo is smoking....

Anchorman: The Ron Burgandy Story....
....there's something about the juxtaposition of Resident Evil, Ron Burgandy, and a few glasses of single malt scotch that's just hard to match.... edit: as good as Resident Evil and Ron Burgandy have been....Joel Olsteen and Scrubs has been even better...... Too often we bring home the pressures of the day and fill our home with the frustrations from the workspace....meanwhile, Turk has an eiffel tower in his pants.... argue with that if you dare.

Yeah, i agree. But then again, a lot of trailers end up being better than the movie. The movie wasn't that bad.

Just saw a screening of Jean-Luc Godard's "Contempt." May have been one of the top 10 movies I've ever seen.
Also just got in the mail my copies of The Office Season 3, The Wire Season 2, and Dexter Season 1. Still waiting on my Always Sunny in Philadelphia DVDs to get here.

Good Luck Chuck!
This movie was funny. Lots of nudity even though i could've sworn it was pg-13. This sentence might be spoiler-ish, but you do get to see Jessica Alba topless, but you don't see nipples (i'm really not a perv). I really didn't want to see it b/c i heard everything involving Dane Cook sucks, but friends dragged me to it. Besides Transformers, this is the only movie this year that's exceeded the low expectations i had. Even though it's getting bad reviews.

saw "The Departed" last night.
Overall I enjoyed it, but I think it could've been better with a few minor changes. Also I'm not at all sure it NEEDED to be 17 hours long. |

300.....finally caught it. Not a bad movie. The extent to which the totalitarian/collectivists in Sparta were fighting for *freedom* is quite debatable, but the special effects were pretty cool.

been catchin a flurrrrry..
unforgiven- dope. clint's always bad ass. the fountain - beautifully sad or sadly beautiful. either way, dope. the zodiac - ok. helps it's a true story. wish they stayed off the characters more and stayed on the plot a bit more. low payoff at the end. science of sleep - a little rough but good intentions. still liked it. pan's labyrinth - something about it was so close yet so far. loved the imagination angle and the little girl but didn't like ending.

I've been spinning all my Wire discs lately. I'm midway through season 2. I can't wait until the final season starts.
Also watched The Saragossa Manuscript. Weird shit, but I kinda dug it.

The Heartbreak Kid- not a good comedy. It had it's funny moments.
Black Snake Moan- a lot better than i thought it'd be. I thought it was going to be some silly movie, but it was good. Black Sheep- not the Chris Farley one, but the only about crazy sheep. It really doesn't get any stranger than this movie. Eastern Promises- fantastic. This and 3:10 to Yuma are probably the most well acted movies i've seen this year. Viggo and Watts give great performances. Violence is a little too graphic at times. And i don't particularly like looking at Viggo's schlong.

I saw the Pawnbroker last night (mid-60s movie, starring Rod Steiger).... really NOT the most uplifting movie! excuse me while I go slit my wrists. In addition to being really depressing material (hollocaust survivors that really just want to die), like a bunch of movies from around tht time period, the mthod of acting is also really to WAY over-act, as if it was a stage-play, rather than a movie (and you have to project whatever emotion you are trying to get across to the last row of the 4th balcony). I can deal with that, but it is not usually my favorite acting/producing method, although it really works well for some movies that are BASED on stage shows, and specifically playing it off, almost for camp value... like Chicago. (On the other hand, they tried that tack for "A Chorus Line".... which I personally think was the single worst movie ever made. Bar none.)

You haven't watched Superbaby Geniuses 2.
I watched Butterfly on a Wheel AKA Shattered. Very interesting movie with Pierce Brosnan and Gerard Butler and Maria Bello.

Hannibal Rising -- the kind of movie that leaves you thinking:
"good lord this is stupid and I can't decide which is worse -- the acting or the storyline....is the movie ever going to end?" if you're into that sort of thing you might really enjoy this movie.

Recently saw "The Last King of Scotland" - great performances by Forest Whitaker and James McAvoy. It's definitely worth watching if you haven't seen it.

Elite Squad..... kinda disappointed, it had the potential to be so much more. Just kinda fizzed out at the end there.
Superbad..... I don't get tired of this movie. Especially with the extended scenes. No Country for Old Men..... I missed quite a bit of the dialog due to the accent Tommy Lee Jones was pulling out there (not a native speaker of English) but it was quite an awesome movie. I will have to rewatch it. Kept me on the edge of my seat for two hours. Hitman........ bleh, not bad, not good, not....... nothing. I guess I was expecting it though.

Bern,
No Country was definitely awesome. Unfortunately, I've been to very few movies this year, but I liked it a lot.

No Country for Old Men.
Fantastic. Bernardos, i'm from a place where accents come heavier than that, so it wasn't hard for me. But anyways, well written, very well acted. The guy who played Anton should win some kind of oscar for his performance. 1. No Country for Old Men 2. Grindhouse 3. Eastern Promises 4. 3:10 to Yuma 5. American Gangster

American Gangster: eh - good movie. Very typical cops and robbers. Kinda like what you'd expect if they'd taken the Starskey and Hutch movie in the dramatic direction.It did look like some of the most interesting part of the story happened after the movie ended - in the text that appears to let you know what happened to the real life characters
