The Movies of March

[taic]

Is it March already, guys? I’m pretty sure I’ve still got a candy cane here somewhere - not to mention a half-dozen holiday movie releases I never got around to seeing. But March it is, and with March comes a whole new month of movies - some may be great, some may be lousy, but we’re going to go over as many of the wide release films as we can here

I'm really hoping V for Vendetta is better than LOEG. And I have never read the graphic novel, which might be just as well so I don't have anything to compare it too.
I also hope Inside Man doesn't completely flop. It looks a bit like it could be really good or just rediculous.

Pitiful offerings as far as I'm concerned. I'm hoping V is good but it's the only one on your list I care to see, tho I know friends of mine will want to see Failure to Launch for the fine male bod. The 2006 films I am looking forward to seem to be coming later in the year: Alatriste, Eragon (for my daughter), Pirates of the Caribbean, The Libertine.

Actually, there's some stuff here i'm liking. I'll get to my top pick in a moment but first.

Lucky Number Slevin, Ice Age 2, 16 Blocks, and Inside Man all appear to be solid films. I may be wrong but they all have actors, directors (or animators) with decent track records and I'd them a chance over the others. ATL is probably an indie flick I'll give a shot to since I'm in Atlanta and it sounds like it takes place here.

Top pick though: V For Vendetta. I've read a bunch of reviews on it and one thing stands out: whether they've read the comic or not, everyone LOVES this movie. For an adaptation of an Alan Moore comic, this is a first. Appareantly the Waichowski Brothers were serious fans of the comic (which I consider AM's best work ever. Yes, better than The Watchmen.) and really wanted to bring it to screen instead of just smashing a couple costumes and scenes together. So yeah, I'm wanting to see this one big time!

V For Vendetta doesn't interest me like most, but then again neither does Ultraviloet but i've already promised my brother I would take him to see it.

If I check any of these out for myself it'll be 16 Blocks, The Hills Have Eyes, Stay Alive, and Slither. And if I see two of those i'll be lucky (Stay Alive interests me probably more than any).
