Thanks LJ---just had to get that out---!

You're welcome! ^_^

I've never heard of Inland Empire before, I'll have to keep an eye out for it when I'm in the mood for mind numbing :)

With good reason you've never heard of it ... watch it at your own risk! ;) Some of it is mind numbing, but some of it is downright disturbing in a weird, creepy dream-like way ...

So what's the last movie you've seen?

If I ever find it, I'll have to watch during the day I think or I may be some bizzare dreams!

The last movie I've seen is Bourne Ultimatium. It was ok, nothing that wasn't surprising in the plot. It brought some lose ends to a close. Only thing that I didn't care for was some of the camera work in the chasing scenes as it was a bit shakey. I think that was the effect they wanted, but it was hard to watch. :)

There a lot of movies that have come out this summer that I still haven't seen and I expect I won't see them until they are out on video (Pirates and Fantastic Four are two of them) unless I can find them showing at a bargin theater.

I really liked Bourne. (He's so much better than Bond!) I'm a big fan of the first two movies - and it's interesting to go back and watch them after seeing the third, you pick up a few little things.
But I do agree all the handheld camera work got a bit much at times.

You didn't get to see Pirates?!?! Oh no. :(
That was much better than the second one. You should try and see it on the big screen if you can.
