Retrospective: 3/3
IT'S OVER! I'm gonna need a little break from movies now. 2 hour timesinks aren't that easy to fit into my schedule.
:
21th: Die Hard: Die Hard is a pretty cool guy. eh shoots lots of terrorists and doesn't afraid of anything. But seriously, I'm not a big fan of the 'building full of bad guys versus one juiced up Super Man' action genre. But this was solid. If you only see one movie about a Testosterone-tastic manly-man killing a squad of baddies, make it this one. 2/2
22th: Edward Scissorhands: Y'know...I didn't care for this one that much... Maybe my expectations were too high going in, but the story didn't captivate me that much. 1/2
23th: American Graffiti: I barely got through this one. I was expecting something much better. I felt like through all the other media and pop culture things I've taken in, I've already seen the movie. 0/2
24th: Empire Records: This one brought me right back up. Great story, great characters. And afterwards, I told Korri I loved her at 1:37. 2/2
25th: 16 Candles: This one was pretty great too. I'd already seen the Breakfast Club, and it was amusing seeing Ringwald/Michael Hall chemistry in this light. Definitely a great watch. And AWWWWW! Good ending! 2/2
26th: Heathers: Fucked up in all the right ways. Also, I really like Christian Slater's voice. I really liked watching this. 2/2
27th: Clockwork Orange: This was a bit too long...there were some good parts. But I lost interest at some points. 1/2
28th: Mallrats: This was going to be History of the World Part 1, but the torrent was too slow. I'm glad I got to work this one in. -NOW- I've seen all the Kevin Smith films, right? Right?! 2/2
29th: Young Frankenstein: This was okay. Not as good as Blazing Saddles/Spaceballs though. I did love the rendition of Puttin on the Ritz though. 1/2
30th: Apocalypse now:I may need to rewatch this one. Didn't leave much of an impression on me. Maybe I was just anxious to get this month done with. 1/2
