Blonde girl was the only redeeming part of that movie. Thank Allah she was in the sequel too.

Disturbia, which was pretty nice. The end scene was too dark for my TFT monitor, but I got the idea.

Today I'm going to watch 1 or 2 more movies because I'm illish.

I saw No Country For Old Men and The Business of Being Born.

No Country was enjoyable and different than what I expected going in. I guess I wasn't sure what to expect, so I was pleasantly surprised...

The Business of Being Born is a documentary about the health care of newborns and how women giving home births using midwives might be the way to go. I was kind of dragged to this by my girlfriend, but it was fairly interesting nonetheless. If you don't want to physically see a baby being born and all the blood and grossness that goes with it, then this isn't your film.

Disturbia sucked hard. Terrible in comparision to Rear Window, a classic. And Shia Lebuff is a homo.

Rear Window is indeed a classic, I saw it a few months ago. But I still thought Disturbia was an enjoyable movie. Not a movie to remember though. But what movies are these days??

No Country for Old Men. Atonement. Two most recent. There's more.

Shia Lebuff always gets casted with these really hot girls, and that is a good reason to dislike him. I thought he was miscast for Transformers but then again that was a horrible plotless movie that was fun to watch, especially if you watched it with a large bag of popcorn. Disturbia, being a remake and all, was decent. The fact that the ending was predictable didn't help, but I thought he fit that roll pretty well.

Was Disturbia officially a remake of "Rear Window"?
Hmm, IMDb faq says:

The answer is No, not officially. However this film does have several differences between the storylines. This allowed them to bypass buying the original rights.

The film also has quite a few similarities to The 'Burbs. An early Tom Hanks film.
Basically the only thing they have in common is a guy who can't leave his house and a guy next door who they think is a murderer.

Anyway, I know that there are enough good movies coming out, but only 5% of the cinema-released ones is memorable in my opinion.

I just saw Secret Window, which was pretty decent. Reminded me too much of Hide and Seek, which I liked better.

I just saw Juno. I guess I was expecting something wacky with floor-rolling laughter. Because of the plot and good reviews and all.

Instead I was given a more serious indie film. No discredit of course. It was still good.

Except for that soundtrack. It was like being forcefully spoon-fed emo music against my will. Then again, that Juno girl is kind of emo so I guess it was only fitting...

Saw Ichi the Killer last night. It was good but to be honest I was expecting it to be much more violent. I was actually a bit disappointed but other then that I enjoyed it

Saw Im Juli and Dead Poets Society last night. Both were great.
