The Book of Eli:

It was the second time I've seen it, and I still really enjoyed it. I've seen it with 5 different people so far, and all 5 have liked it a lot. The only negative about the movie is that it has religion in it. To which I say "Tough titties, so did Indiana Jones." I suggest watching this movie. Suspend belief a little bit for a couple hours, and enjoy a good movie.

30 Days of Night:

I didn't really like the movie. The only good part of it was towards the end, and it involved Josh Hartnett's fist, and a Vampires face.

Ya, Book of Eli entertained for sure. Oldman is pretty good at villainy.

I just saw Beverly Hills Cop 1 & 2. The first one was pretty good. By the end of the second I was getting tired of the donkey laugh. I enjoyed 1 more than 48 Hours.

Safety Last (1923) - Cool ancientness. I liked the Battleship Potemkin more.

I liked Duck Soup (marxbros) and Monkey Business was good. I'm going to see A Night at the Opera soon.

Funny enough that's the only one I haven't seen. And it looks like it should stay that way.

I've seen Swept From The Sea and Cast Away, but not Swept Away...

Whiteout. 6/10. I'd rate the first hour with a 7, but the ending came too sudden and was boring.

D-War. 6/10. Fun monster movie.

Great to see a huge serpent ravage a city. Sadly the story was sillly, the acting sometimes bad. Oh and it has a lot of clichés.

I Love You Phillip Morris

I quite liked it, but after reading up on his exploits, some of his actual cons seem much more interesting than how they were handled in the movie. Nice to see Jim Carrey again. Can't recall the last time I saw a movie with him.

A few recent watches...

Kick-Ass: I had wanted to see this in theaters but never got around to it. Pretty great little twist on the superhero movie. The action scenes were fantastic. Fun movie.

Night of the Living Dead: I'd been meaning to watch this forever and I'm glad I finally did. I liked this even more than I thought I would. There's great tension and the depressing nature of the ending is satisfying in its non-Hollywood way.

In the Loop: Incredibly funny political satire. It's constantly moving and the dialogue is hilarious. Gives a pretty interesting take on what may be going on behind the scenes leading up to a war.

Toy Story 3: I Think Pixar enjoys making people cry.

Meet the Robinsons: Hyperactively fun and positive.

"Bigger Stronger Faster"

Hilarious and informative documentary on the use of steroids and performance enhancing drugs, as well as other commonly and not so commonly used drugs, in American society. Definitely worth the watch if you're into lifting, sports, or just curious about the insides and outs of the steroid debate.

Superman/Batman: Apocalypse

Some great fighting scenes. Definitely the best superhero fights outside of comics. Um, plus a cute Supergirl shopping montage.

And if have no intention of seeing the movie, can at least watch a couple of the fights:

Being John Malkovich

Wow. I Can't believe I've never watched this before, considering it's by one of my favorite filmmakers. It was incredible. I loved Inception, but this was like a more well-thought out Inception. I'm actually not sure if these films are comparable, but they definitely connected in my brain while watching them.

<3 Charlie Kaufmann + Spike Jonze

I really can never remember who recommended what, but to whoever recommended Swimming with Sharks, that was a solid movie.

It kind of made me think of Ari Gold on Entourage, but in a much darker manner.

Lilo & Stitch. 7/10 Fun family movie.

Seth · 09-23-2010, 01:17 AM

Batman Gothic Knight
Probably the best batman movie.

Coco Chanel & Igor Travinsky
I didn't care much for this one. Some great directing touches but overall the movie fell far short of the opening scene's drawn out magnification.

BreakABone · 09-23-2010, 01:29 AM

I think you mean Gotham Knight unless you are talking a fan made movie?

Anyhow, Disney's Princess and the Frog its nice to see Disney get back to what made them Disney. Such a fantastic film.
