You presumable had no problem with the multiple murders, the lying, deceit, and theft in that film, but the bad language bothered you. Must be because you felt the impact of the bad language yourself, but the murders, etc. were happening to other (fictional) people. Still, it's interesting what different people find offensive. |

The murders did not bother me because it is a black comedy. I guess that watching years of CSI and Law & Order have anaesthetised my senses somewhat. |
Just finished John Cameron Mitchell's Shortbus.
Fucking amazing. No, really. Equal parts porn, intertwining-stories, drama, spirituality, and reflection. Completely perfect, everything I would expect from John Cameron Mitchell. |
Eraserhead.
Not sure why I didn't see it before now. Won't ever be my favorite Lynch film, but it was fascinatingly creepy. The stark, claustrophobic black & white cinematography and the minimalist storyline seemed to exist solely to carry the multilayered soundscape. |
Wicker Man (remake)
(thought the original was better, society of the island made more sense, was more balanced, and hey, Christopher Lee was in the Original. I also liked Edward Woodward's Officer Howie better than Nicholas Cage's attempt to be intense, especially when it came to the religious aspects of the story.) |
The Covenant -- predictable, thought it was going to be worse than it was; serious eye candy
The Guardian -- lovely men, decent story, sad ending Hell Boy: Sword of Storms -- excellent animated version of Hellboy with Japanese theme Narnia -- I'm sure you've all seen this one, but that battle scene at the end is just awesome! Step Up --waste o'time. Dance movies can be fun, but this was was a much lamer remake of Save the Last Dance, which had more interest, and more engaging, more attractive stars |
Poseidon
Another in a long line of unnecessary remakes. The nicest thing I can say about it is that it was at least better than the Made-for-TV remake. Or maybe not. At least the Made-for-TV remake kept skylight guy. |

Borat, Babel, the Departed.
|
I was disappointed in Borat--the social commentary/potty humor ratio was not what I expected.
Casino Royale was fantastic. I just about keeled over when Daniel Craig appeared in his perfectly-tailored tux. |
Borat- I liked it. Definitely could've done without the naked wrestling scene though.
|
I have finally made it through disc 4 of The Rat Patrol, Season One, so I'll be able to watch something else soon.
|
Borat! High-five!
Those who have it should look in the deleted scenes for the one in the supermarket. My dad nearly died laughing at that earlier. |
I just finished Kung Fu Hustle.
Incredible. |
