i love both of those movies! i love the bunk beds part of step brothers..."it'll give us so much extra room in here to do ACTIVITIES!!"

[Chimera]

Top Hat with Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers - loved it!

I actually watched four movies today because I was avoiding studying.

Down To Earth (the Rita Hayworth one)
The Sheriff of Fractured Jaw
Caesar and Cleopatra
Gilda

[Penny Lane]

'In Bruges'.. I was not impressed. I remember Colin winning a Golden Globe for this and thought 'Man, I have to watch that... it must be a great movie'.. not at all. I can appreciate dark humor, but I guess this was just lost on me or something. The fact that I was distracted, cooking, talking on the phone, going in and out of the room while it was on may have had a lot to do with it... maybe I'll give it another go when I can really focus on it, but yea, I was surprised that I didn't enjoy it as much as I would have expected.

Hairspray.

Oh have you seen 1408?

Yes, ahhh I loves me some John Cusack!

I saw "A Christmas Carol" on Friday and it was really good, highly entertaining...but some parts absolutely freaked me out big time! Good going on that Mr. Zemeckis! I kept looking at my friend going "This is seriously PG?!?!" I wouldn't recommend bringing small children...

It was definitely pretty dark for a Disney film.

Dance Movie. Hardly high art, but some pretty funny moments. Uglieesha should be a drag queen's name.

Watched Thelma&Louise last night.
It was on TV and cut to hell, but it was my first time watching it. If I'd known Michael Madsen was in it, I would have watched it sooner.

[Grimmlok]

Zombieland: cute, but a bit slow in the middle and too wrapped up in hetero teenage awkward Superbad type love.

[FierceKiten]

Hellboy 2 - Impressive and better than the first!

[ang]

last chance harvey -- it was so charming & understated. great casting...dustin hoffman & emma thompson have lovely chemistry. i just really dug it.

[Nightdragon]

Transformers 2 Revenge of the Fallen. It was action packed, blow shit up good. I love it when autobots and decepticons out act the human's. Good shit.

2012. Another Roland Emmerich fail. The special effects are absolutely excellent, the only thing worth seeing it for. The storyline sucks with alot of "What's the point of this conversation?" moments. It got boring often. And of course, the lead manages to escape death 50,000 times, which got frustrating because it was never realistic. I got stuck in a cinema with a bunch of dudes who kept commenting loudly "AS IF!" and "NOT POSSIBLE!". Ugh.


I wouldn't highly recommend it to anyone, but I can't knock the tsunamis - they looked really cool, not Deep Impact awful. Oh, and also, I left the cinema hating the American government even more. Really goes to show that there's so much the public isn't told, and all they're thinking about is saving themselves.

I'm planning to go see 2012 either tomorrow or Saturday. Seems like it's what I expected. Crappy story and great special effects.

But the one thing I like about Emmerich's films is that he tends to cast people for the leads that you normally wouldn't expect to see in big budget disaster films.

ID4: Will Smith/Jeff Goldblum

Godzilla: Matthew Broderick/Hank Azaria

Day After Tomorrow: Jake Gyllenhaal/Dennis Quaid

2012: John Cusack

Everytime I see the "destruction of LA" sequence, I keep wondering why the limo containing the stars seems to be the only car not being tossed around by seismic waves....

He also seems to have something against US landmarks - he's always destroying them one way or another. Emmerich is nothing if not a consistent.......hack.

Still, I think it will be cool.
