Movie Dump
I'll come back and brush this up later when I'm in the mood, but at this point I'm tired of the list taking up space on my Sidenote. There's some movies from 2008, and then some from 2009. I'm clearly nowhere near the high water mark of 2007, but then again, 2007 was not exactly a productive year for me.
Amadeus - The running time is scary, but it's always worth it.
Sex Drive - Pointless fun.
Bigger, Stronger, Faster - One of the few documentaries that I still roll over in my head. I'll rent it again, I'm sure.
The Nightmare Before Christmas - Finally got around to seeing it. The Blu-Ray was almost too sharp.
Beyond Batman: Return of the Joker - Surprisingly dark for an animated flick. I have a small quibble with the story line, but way more inventive than most of the Batman films.
Milk - I kept waiting for there to be some emotion in the film, but the film was so busy making sure I knew when and what to feel that I didn't feel anything.
71 Fragments From A Chronology of Chance - Didn't feel much when I watched it, but it haunted me for days.
The Sentinel - If you tell yourself that it's just a movie, it doesn't need to have any basis in reality, you may enjoy it. May.
Cool Hand Luke - Jesus what a great film. Just awesome.
Bringing Up Baby - A classic, with all the hallmarks of classics from the 40s.
Wall-E - Pretty sweet.
Tropic Thunder - I haven't laughed out loud like this since There's Something About Mary. See it now.
Men in Black - Eh, it kinda holds up. Hard to not see Tommy Lee Jones as an insufferable prick.
Twister - I had never seen this movie before. I never need to see it again.
Bride Wars - See Twister.
The Girl Next Door - Part 2 of a torture porn movie night. If you're ever a 13 year old girl getting tortured and raped by your psychotic aunt's family, make sure you befriend someone other than a spineless little pussy of an 11 year old neighbor boy. Just sayin'.
Hostel - I thought that when I watched it when it came out I didn't give it enough credit. So I rewatched it. I was right the first time.
Coraline - The creepiness from the book is dialed down a bit so the little kids don't freak out, but it's still a bit creepy and incredibly well done.
Amadeus - The running time is scary, but it's always worth it.
Sex Drive - Pointless fun.
