I love Stanley Tucci. Have you seen Big Night? One of my favorite Tucci flicks, and Tony Shalhoub was great, too. They seem like they could really be brothers.

I watched "What the Bleep" last night. That was easily the dumbest movie I have seen in a while.

J.Z. Knight channels Ramtha who explains Quantum Physics.

NOT.

Pretty much.

Luther - Joseph Fiennes oozes angst, but it's a pretty decent overview of the 95 theses, first vernacular Bible, and a lot of charges of heresey. Neat film.

Portrait of Hell - Japanese, 1969. Interesting interplay of light and shadow, both in the human psyche and in the director's vision of how the story should be told. Freaky.

Just rented Fight Club for the first time. The title had always put me off. I'm not into gratuitous violence at all. And I always thought it was supposed to be some sort of brutal and creepy movie.

But I kept hearing good reviews for it, so my wife and I finally watched it over the weekend.

Well, if you've seen it, you already know that it's a great movie. If you haven't seen it, do yourself a favor and rent it this weekend.

We saw it on Saturday night, and I'm still thinking about it on Monday afternoon.

+1 Think I'll watch Fight Club tonight. I wish I had Arlington Road on DVD, too.

I bought that Black Dahlia movie and didn't much care for it, really. It didn't live up to my expectations in any sense. Recently I've also watched The Four Feathers, Gattaca for the hundredth time, and did my monthly viewing of Swingers. The Matrix, Shakespeare in Love, Garden State and Goodwill Hunting are coming up for their monthly viewings.

I also bought the first season of Sleeper Cell and it totally blew me away. That's about all I can say about that.

We showed Raiders of the Lost Ark to the kids last night. It still works.

I loved Fight Club. Thought it was well-constructed and followed the book fairly well. The book is much creepier. After that, read everything else Chuck Pahalnuik (or however you spell it) has ever written. Brilliant. Awesomely brilliant.

My latest was a Double Feature of Hercules and the Amazon Women and Hercules and the Lost Kingdom.

I got hoodwinked. From the Netflix description it was supposed to be the Xena spinoff episodes, instead Lucy Lawless had a small part in the first one, and Renee O'Connor was the female lead in the second.

I've been watching some Simpsons DVDs my brother got me, and some he got himself. Did you know that Milhouse's debut was a Butterfinger commercial?

Clodfobble · 02-01-2007, 08:47 PM

Whoever said Bubba Ho-tep was a good movie is a damned dirty liar.

That thing should have been 20 minutes long, tops. SO INCREDIBLY BORING.

Happy Monkey · 02-03-2007, 11:27 AM
