I've seen two movies in two days. What's that all about? I went to see Transformers last night, which, needless to say, rocked my socks (and was a lot funnier than I gave credit for). Today, I went to see Sicko, which I LOVED and suggest that everyone go see if you have the opportunity. I completely lost it in the end, but then again, so did a lot ( Read more... )

Last night, Crystal, Kelly, and I went to see Grindhouse at the drive-in. This was my first time going to a drive-in, so it was very fitting that we went to see this particular movie in this particular format. It was PERFECT!! The website for the theater didn't have a specific time for the start of the movie, so we all headed across town around 7: ( Read more... )

I totally want to see this, even though I don't really care for Evan Rachel Wood. I'm sure it has nothing to do with the fact that it has Beatles songs in it, or that it's a music thing.

So, how much did I love Pan's Labyrinth and The Painted Veil you ask?

With both my arms stretched out as far as they can go, that's how much. I highly recommend them both, although the prior is not for the faint at heart, I'm just sayin'.

Thank you Kevin Smith for making me laugh harder than I've laughed in a long while. Kudos to you sir and kudos for giving Joel Siegel the what-for.

Vigilantly did I view V for Vendetta, last night, whose vivid visuals did whet my voracious appetite for violence and vindication. (Whew! Thats kind of hard to do ( Read more... )

I forgot how good a 3 minute short film can be. I rented Celebrity Mix, a collection of short films, which, for the most part were pretty good. Some of the shorts were humorous, some dramatic, some just downright scary, but mostly entertaining. I should do a short film.

I didn't get a chance to review the two movies I watched yesterday, so I'll take this opportunity, and, of course put them behind cuts for spoilers' sake.

So, I just got back from seeing Elizabethtown with Will, and while not the best Cameron Crowe film, I have to say I really liked it. No one performance stood out for me, but overall, the whole movie had a feel that's just hard to place. It's definately on the abstract side and more than surely surreal, but there's also a "home" kind of feel to it. ( Read more... )

Last night, writteninstars, reckleslinguist, and myself partook of the second in the Jake Gyllenhaal fall movie trifecta, Jarhead, and...sigh! I mean, it combines two things that I go nuts over, war movies and Jake Gyllenhaal, and when the two are combined, I could bl ( Read more... )
