Away We Go - wasn't as "indie cute bullshit" as people on the nets led me to believe. I actually really enjoyed it and laughed many times.
The couple at the race track and the "hippie" couple were genuinely laugh out loud funny. The soundtrack was pretty awesome, too, even though it was almost exclusively "indie dude with a guitar" songs.

Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey B- okay, not Excellent Adventure, but I think the flick is underrated. It's actually better directed than the first one, very outlandish and cartoony and extreme visual style. I have a theory that even gawdawful, terrible actors have at least one great role in them. For Alex Winters and Keanu Reeves, it was Bill and Ted. They're even great as Evil Bill and Evil Ted with stuff like, "We used to be total puss-holes, but now we're metal. NOW GET OVER HERE AND PUT OUT!" The flick doesn't zip by like Excellent Adventure does, Death is in it too much and that Station character is lame...but it gets points for being an original / different sequel that has enough callbacks to the first movie to make it feel like it's from the same series, AND it's got Max Von Sidow.

I'm on record somewhere as saying Bogus Journey > Excellent Adventure. it's one of those totally bizarre sequels, like Gremlins 2, that turns the ridiculous quotient up to 11. who would have sat down at the table to pen a Bill & Ted sequel and said, you know what, let's make it a parody of The Seventh Seal with evil robots from the future.

i don't think Sydow is in it though.

Silent Running. B-. it's an interesting film. low budget, set on a spaceship, and it's a hippie sci-fi film. it definitely in style has some influence. I first thought of Dark Star... but other things down the line took cues from the spaceship interiors. overall the plot is uneven though so I would only really recommend it to sci-fi genre fans.

The Exterminating Angel. A-. another great Bunuel film. interesting premise, fascinating execution, pretty much perfect really.

Friends of Eddie Coyle. B. a good early 70's American crime film. great performance by Mitchum here. I felt a lot of Melville in it, it was very quiet and observational, which is kind of different for an American film in the genre.

house of sand and fog. so bad. even the music sucked

Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey B- okay, not Excellent Adventure, but I think the flick is underrated. It's actually better directed than the first one, very outlandish and cartoony and extreme visual style. I have a theory that even gawdawful, terrible actors have at least one great role in them. For Alex Winters and Keanu Reeves, it was Bill and Ted. They're even great as Evil Bill and Evil Ted with stuff like, "We used to be total puss-holes, but now we're metal.

Death in it too much? Impossible. That guy had all the best quotes of the movie.

I'm pretty sure that the Bill and Ted movies is the unrivaled king of movie duologies. The only one that used to come close was the Terminator movies, but they managed to fuck that up really well.

BRADE RUNNAH

A+

Capitalism: A Love Story - C+

Whereas I felt genuinely angry at the health insurance industry after seeing Sicko, or the Bush admin/mnstrm media after watching fahrenheit 9-11, I can't say I felt that impacted after seeing "Capitalism" It was the same appeal to pathos as every Moore film is but I think the problem here is that capitalism is such a gargantuan topic to tackle, a topic that affects many facets of society, that any well researched indictment of an entire economic system could not be packaged in a fluffy two hour documentary. moore skips from topic to topic too rapidly to ever let the shock of one capitalist crime sink in. in fact the film is almost entirely not even about capitalism, rather its about corporatism. There's still plenty of gems in this film and a few tearjerking moments. some of the shit these big companies pull of is down right heinous. i felt like it could have done a way better job. Still, as with all michael moore film, this is the type of film i'd show my parents, people who aren't really interested in politics but should be tuned in to whats happening.

^
yeah I haven't seen this yet but I'm assuming someone would be better served watching The Corporation

i read a scathing review of captalism the other day. said it was basically him standing outside places and not getting in

The Informant-B-

matt damon was good. not nearly as funny as advertised, but i really don't think it's suppose to be, not sure why they pitched it that way

also, i'm bummed. for some reason i thought zombieland came out tomorrow.

I'm on record somewhere as saying Bogus Journey > Excellent Adventure. it's one of those totally bizarre sequels, like Gremlins 2, that turns the ridiculous quotient up to 11. who would have sat down at the table to pen a Bill & Ted sequel and said, you know what, let's make it a parody of The Seventh Seal with evil robots from the future.

i don't think Sydow is in it though.

I think Excellent Adventure is better structured and just a hell of a lot of fun, but I think Bogus Journey is terribly discarded as being something that wouldn't "fit" in the universe of the series. I think it works great, and they don't just easily fall back on "Let's have them time travel to DIFFERENT historical figures". They actually try to do something different yet, tonally, it's very similar (two metalhead dumbasses go on a wacky expedition through mythological settings). But the direction in Bogus Journey is really what helps it, almost every frame has this live-action-cartoon vibe going on.

And you're totally right on the Sydow, but this dude did look / sound like him: Joss Ackland (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000722/) (and I was a bit tipsy / tired at the time watching the flick. I was seeing Max Von all over the place.)

Death in it too much? Impossible. That guy had all the best quotes of the movie.

I'm pretty sure that the Bill and Ted movies is the unrivaled king of movie duologies. The only one that used to come close was the Terminator movies, but they managed to fuck that up really well.

He has some great bits ("Best of 7?" "DAMN RIGHT!") but I think by the end when he was doing his jazz-rap I was a bit worn out and more eager to see some more time devoted to Bill and Ted. But Death is a pretty solid third wheel and tons of good stuff, like when he passes the smoker and goes "See you real soon".

There's zero reason for a third Bill and Ted - the movie's credits show Bill and Ted become the world-peace creating future versions that were talked about in the first one. Also, 40-something Keanu and Alex Winters doing Bill and Ted (no matter how great they were) would be kind of sad.

holy shit are you really having a discussion about this

the brothers bloom A-

if pt anderson and wes anderson had a kid who made movies, this would be that movie. that being said i found it to be really enjoyable, rachel weiss is adorable, the plot is kinda out there, but did'nt really bother me. i would watch this again.

the girlfriend experience F

this movies is 15 minuites over an hour, and an hour too long. the 'plot' is centered around a whore and her boyfriend, and it has so much potential to be great, but it was just borring and sad. none of the charachters where at all like able, so i really didn't care what happened to them, but i guess that is good because nothing happenes to them, because the film has no ending. the only real thing this movie did, was show off a lot of upscale nyc resturants, most of the film takes place in resturants. i would just avoid this sac of crap if i where you.

Understand where you're coming from but I disagree with a flat-out FAILURE verdict: It had some pretty cinematography and Sasha Grey looked great in almost every shot.

i get the feeling the movies you watch are the kind of stuff you find in the bargain bin at walmart

if pt anderson and wes anderson had a kid who made movies, this would be that movie.

what the fuck are you talking about

Silent Running. B-. it's an interesting film. low budget, set on a spaceship, and it's a hippie sci-fi film. it definitely in style has some influence. I first thought of Dark Star... but other things down the line took cues from the spaceship interiors. overall the plot is uneven though so I would only really recommend it to sci-fi genre fans.



uhhhh

isn't this the movie that Ruth watches with Arthur in Six Feet Under? guy is in space with a television and a refrigerator or some shit?

the omega man A+

perfect classic horror.

Scrubs Season 3 - Better than the second season, not as good as the first. My favorite part of the whole season was when JD saw The Janitor on "The Fugitive" with Harrison Ford and he asked him about it. What was awesome was when I IMDB'd The Fugitive and, lo and behold, the actor who plays The Janitor actually was in the Fugitive.

Surrogate= D

Don't waste your time. B Willy is sleep walking through his 50s (60s?)

The Assassination of Jesse James By the Coward Robert Ford- B-

A beautiful looking movie that went on way too long. Performances were excellent and, frankly, are what kept me watching. I like the romanticized idea that James essentially plotted his own suicide-by-murder, but we're also given enough reason to think that his mental state was just so fucked at this point that it's feasible he was just off his rocker. But, as I said, the movie was just too long in getting where it needed to be. I also thought the narration was pointless and overwrought. If there is ever a Syd Barrett movie made, Casey Affleck certainly looks the part.

Edit: I forgot to mention that there's a scene at the beginning where the narrator is talking about Jesse James's life, and he mentions that James blinks more than most people. This happens on a close-up of Pitt who is staring at something off-screen. He doesn't blink but once or twice in this long shot. He also doesn't show the characteristic in the movie at any point. WTF. Why bother mentioning it? A lot of scenes also seemed superflous at times.

call back B-

i guess this is what new wave horror is. was a lot better than i expected, a cross between hardcandy and bound, it moved along, and was fairly suspencefull. so i liked it. good special effects too.

Season 1 of Dexter - A

so amazing. i love Michael C Hall. He was great in Six Feet Under so that is pretty much why i gave this show a chance. i am glad i did. the writing is top notch, intense story lines, great plots, believable characters. i started the second season and i can't wait to see how it turns out. highly recommended.

yeah season one of dex was intense, y0. he's married to his sister.

Superman/Batman: Public Enemies - A-

The best of the recent DC animated besides New Frontier

uhhhh

isn't this the movie that Ruth with Arthur in ? guy is in space with a television and a refrigerator or some shit?

it is. Arthur calls the music score lovely, I think. Guess he was a joan baez fan.

Superman/Batman: Public Enemies - A-

The best of the recent DC animated besides New Frontier

Really? Good to know....really like new frontier. The new green lantern was alright, could have done with another storyline besides an origin story. Guess it's to get everyone ready for the upcoming livw action movie, though.

it is. Arthur calls the music score lovely, I think. Guess he was a joan baez fan.

he mentions that she did the music.

god what a spectacular show.

Scrubs Season 4 - loved it, yo. so far: 1 > 4 > 3 > 2

away we go A-

i loved this movie. i did not really think jim and maya could pull of staring in a movie but they did great. krankanski? did not have much of a personallty but thats is just in bad writing. the second plot point completly comes from so far out of the blue that it feels sloopy and ham handed, but it turns into some really intresting situations/ dialogue so it worked out all right. maya rudolph gets huge props for showing more range than most a listers millions above her pay grade. i would recomend this movie. oh yeah the sound track sucked.

welcome to collinwood A

this movie has a great plot, great acting and directing, and is both funny as fuck and entertaining. one of the best off beat films i have seen in years

i'm going to start posting rotten tomato meter ratings for all these bargain bin movies mojo moron watches

away we go: 66%
welcome to collinwood: 54%

days of darkness C+

zombailen horror.

Sense & Sensibility- A

i hadn't seen this movie in about 10 years. it was late one night, or early one morning and i decided to put it in. i love kate winslet, but her character is kind of a snob in this movie. i cried, but it doesn't take much to get me to cry.

Grandma's Boy-A+
i own this movie and it's one that i could watch over and over again. solid gold comedy. seems like this one didn't get much attention when it first came out. actually i don't even remember it being in theatres. definitely a cult classic type.

tsotsi - C+

I don't get what people think is so great about this.

The Proposal - C+ Got dragged to this by a friend of mine, but it wasn't terrible enough for me to hold it against her. Pretty run of the mill romantic comedy. I like Ryan Reynolds enough to have made it watchable.

Vantage Point - B- This was decent for what it was, which was basically just a glorified episode of 24 minus Jack Bauer. I think I would have enjoyed it more if the plot device of showing the events from the perspectives of the different characters had played a little more like Roshomon (where every character had a different idea of what actually happened) instead of just rehashing the same event over and over again from a different angle. But whatever, the cast (Dennis Quaid, Forrest Whittaker, Sigourney Weaver) was pretty darn good for such a throwaway movie.

Last House on the Left (2008) - B- Decent by "unnecessary horror remake" standards. It was violent and disturbing by modern Hollywood standards I suppose, but it didn't quite pack the punch of the original. I wouldn't go to much trouble to watch the original again because I felt kinda icky after sitting through it. I won't go through much trouble to watch the remake again just because it was just kinda cliched and average for the most part.

Observe and Report - C+/B- Not sure where I stand on this one. It was just strange, like it couldn't decide if it wanted you to think Seth Rogen's character was Paul Blart, or if he was Travis Bickle. The closest movie in tone I can think of to compare it to is probably Bad Santa, but that was a much better film.

Death Sentence - C+ Basically a straight up remake of Death Wish, only with Kevin Bacon instead of Charles Bronson. I like Kevin Bacon, but he's no Bronson.

seth rogan said on the daily show that his character is more like travis bickle

Control - B+

o'horten - C-: simple premise but really, really boring. shouldve been shorter. really, shouldnt have been a movie.
one true thing - A-: this was so sad :( great cast.
what doesn't kill you - B+: i think ethan hawke has a knack for being in good movies. story was a little predictable but this movie was good.

the shortcut B-/C

happy madison's new company scarry madison brings you this pg 13 tween drama.
it's not terrible, decent universal plot. the twist at the end while expected, was still cute.

Antichrist - A+

Nothing I can say about Von Trier does him justice.

Grandma's Boy-A+
i own this movie and it's one that i could watch over and over again. solid gold comedy. seems like this one didn't get much attention when it first came out. actually i don't even remember it being in theatres. definitely a cult classic type.

"where do you get your weed from?"
"from you dante"
"oh yea, whats up mr. cheezal"

nick swardsen is a winner

your ass is more tan than my face.


you should never throw a bong kid.


A+ is too weak a rating for that movie.

Terribly Happy. B-. Danish big city cop moves to small town cause he can't hack it backwoods people are weird movie. it's actually kind of Hot Fuzz's plot. the opening sequence is directly lifted from the opening sequence of No Country For Old Men. everything in this movie is a cliche until the end I suppose. it's enjoyable enough, well acted, and well photographed.

[Rec] 2. B. hell of a lot of fun. it has its flaws but is also more clever than most sequels. there are a few awesome scenes that make the whole thing worth it. but mostly, just good entertainment.

2001: A Space Odyssey. A+. it's been a few years since I watched it. this time I really focused on the lack of dialogue and the perfect design of the match cut and how it ties the whole film together. the movie has tremendous balls.

Auto Focus. C+. a decent biopic type movie with good performances but ultimately doesn't have a whole lot for me to recommend it.

Dead or Alive 2: Birds. B-. an uneven but enjoyable Miike buddy film.

Hiroshima Mon Amour. A. Resnais is an awesome motherfucker. the opening fifteen minutes are brilliant. and the pioneering use of flashbacks, of course. the whole thing has the feel of an encounter you dreamed happened. just a great film.

the wrong guy B+

really clever and super funny, dave foley at his very best.


straw dogs C+

hoffman and peckinpah it really should have been awesome....

spoiler alert.

there is a big rape scene halfway through this movie, and i should haev felt bad for the girl cause she was getting raped, but she was into it, untill the dudes friend showed up so i really did not feel for her at all and she is so tramatised by the event, i just found it a little sloopy and forced. hoffman's char arc is good but the whole rape thing kinda ruined the film for me

Private Eye. B-. a Korean action pic about a private eye looking for a murderer. if you've seen a Korean mainstream action pic from the last few years you probably know what to expect here. the main actor has charisma, the acting is all good. the plot is decent and entertaining.

Ninja Assassin. NR. I think this one of the first showings of this film, McTeigue's follow-up to V for Vendetta. with Korean pop star RAIN, also of Speed Racer. I wanted to like this film but the longer it went on the worse it got and the less interested I became. my friend and I walked out of it with about a half hour left, he hated it and I could care less what was going to happen next.

Vampire Girl vs. Frankenstein Girl. B-. from the directors of Tokyo Gore Police. a story about a fucked up high school with a vampire girl and then later a frankenstein girl, who are fighting for the affection of the same guy. with, unsurprisingly, plenty of gore effects. and some incredible racism. it's really Troma-tastic. with a really hilarious cameo by a J-horror director. plenty of laughs in this film, actually it's one of the better comedies I've seen in the last year. ultimately it could use a few cuts and can be hit and miss, but I liked it a whole lot more than Tokyo Gore Police.

Clive Barker's Dread. C+. I'm not much of a horror films as of late. most directors/screenwriters do it all wrong, especially in the third act. this one doesn't really fall apart in the third act. in fact, it's wholly decent and I wasn't bored. didn't love it either, but I'd give it a solid rec for horror fans.

Dexter Season 2 A
Another top notch season. Lots of twists and turns. The characters develop more and you learn some interesting back story on dexter. So much tension and drama, its great. Can't wait to start season 3.

prepare for a letdown.

Srsly.

:(


i guess it was bound to happen

year one A-

what a great movie. super funny jack black did not annoy me much at all. the cast is chock fulll of comedy legends so the lauffs where non stop. oliver platt nearly stole the entire film. hank azaria was awesome, reitmans cameo was awesome.....you know this movie was just great. the only bad thing i can say about it is they walked through historical eras, but fuck this is not a serious movie so why quibble about that?

FOTCC season 2 A

gets better everytime.

i have not seen season one so i'm wondering if it is much better...?

trick or treat

presented by bryan singer! really? i mean i guess valkyrie was a horror movie.....
i barley made it 15 minuites in so i'll probs watch it later and post a grade then.

the seamstress F

it's a movie!!!! i watched this entire thing and have no idea what it is about. halfway through producing this pile they discoverd nightmare on elm st and realised they where gonna get sued unless they make some changes. avoid at all costs

season one is amazing. get it now.

last 2 days of Fantastic Fest.

Fish Story. B. this ended up being the best film I saw at the fest. extremely entertaining and very funny. maybe a little overlong but the payoff is worth it. the storyline has a comet about to hit the Earth, with 5 hours left, in a record store in Japan we begin to follow a story that spans from just after WWII to 2012. I don't want to go into it too much but I recommend it once it's out on DVD. well it looks like there's a DVDrip out but no subtitles so that's too bad.

Down Terrace. C+. a black comedy about a grumpy family in England and some other things. decent, with a few laughs. it's well made for a fairly low budget and has a clever structure.

The Human Centipede. D. I'm not into body-horror or whatever but my friend wanted to watch this so I stayed. waste of my time. terrible production values. the lighting is just awful. too ridiculous to be truly horrifying.

Hausu. B-. an obscure Japanese comedy from 1977 that takes on the haunted house genre in the most bizarre and psychedelic manner possible. Janus is touring a print of it and it will probably get a Criterion release eventually, hopefully as part of an Eclipse set with other likeminded weird shit. it's a bit uneven but has enough laughs to be worth watching. was great to see with an audience.

The Revenant. B. an undead-buddy-comedy. this was really good, looked great, definitely deserves distribution, hope it's picked up for a small theatrical run at least.

Kamogawa horumo. C+. a silly Japanese romcom with a twist. I actually knew nothing about it sitting down to watch it because that's what the programmers suggested. I'm not that blown away by the direction it takes but it was definitely a unique film.

Hot Fuzz - A+
My favorite movie to fall asleep to.

Dexter Season 2 A
Another top notch season. Lots of twists and turns. The characters develop more and you learn some interesting back story on dexter. So much tension and drama, its great. Can't wait to start season 3.

prepare for a letdown.

Srsly.

Am I the only one who liked season three? What did you two dislike about it?

well i have gotten through 4 episodes and it does seem a little slower. i mean it is still good, but maybe not as amazing. i can't believe what happened to doakes and that quinn guy makes me want to punch myself every time he talks.

It is different, but I really liked it. I would say more, but you're in the middle of it so I will refrain.

zombieland-A

thoroughly enjoyed this

tsotsi - C+

I don't get what people think is so great about this.

it is really drawn out.
i like the scenery cause thats my city, and i miss it.
well, i say it's my city only cause it's the one i lived in the longest, and i fell in love cause i had too. cape town is a lot easier to love, but that doesn't make it better.
Oh, Johannesburg, I miss you!

YOU FAT CUPCAKE EATIN MOTHER FUCKER!!!

Oh yes, did I mention I watched UP in 3D? I enjoyed it, it dragged out too at some points, but I really guffawed out loud in some parts as wel.

I will give is maybe a C+, or a B- just cause it was in 3D.

saw Zombieland, it was fun I guess.

Definitely nowhere near as good as Shaun of the Dead.
ALTHOUGH Zombieland did have the all-time greatest cameo in movie history.

Would probably give it a 6.9/10

Scrubs Season 5 - Thought this was one of the funniest seasons, although it had a lot more sappy moments

so far, 5 > 1 > 4 > 3 > 2

Am I the only one who liked season three? What did you two dislike about it?

Well it kind of turned into a more regular soap opera and a lot of the tension disappeared. I believe there were one or two episodes that I liked as much as the older ones, but for the rest it was just a bit boring. Not bad though, I'm still following it.

There were these pilot episodes for season 4 a few weeks ago, newer ones may have leaked by now.

Toy Story 1 & 2 are currently in theaters as a 3D double feature. Anyone see them yet?

Away We Go - B-
Pretty good. Had some genuinely touching and funny moments but I never quite got to the point where I loved it. The end was sort of predictable, at least it seemed that way to me, and as somebody already mentioned the background music was a bit distracting at times. I think if they had just stayed with something instrumental I would have liked it more. It just seemed to take away from what was happening in some scenes. Also, I think they could have stuck a better balance between the quirky stuff and the sad stuff. In certain scenes, it is like they are hitting you over the head with how WEIRD these people are or, oh my goodness, HOW FUCKING SAD THIS IS so it felt really uneven in that way but I have sat through much worse.

Flatliners- D

Ridiculously star-studded yet hilariously bad most of the time. The entire premise is about the most idiotic idea I've ever heard for a movie. It was really awesome how Kiefer Sutherland kept getting beat up by an imaginary child though.

I just watched The Reader, and I have to say it's by far one of my favorite movies I've seen in a while.

i'll be sure NOT to check it out

lmao

Away We Go. C-. did not care for. had a couple of laughs but mostly there was 30 minutes of story drawn out into an hour and a half film. too many scenes where nothing was happening so we could listen to bad folk-pop music play. on the plus side the photography was rich. I looked it up and Ellen Kuras did the cinematography, she has a pretty good resume.

Tulpan. B. really good Kazakh film set in the desert following a family of herders with a goofy brother trying to find a wife. great photography, pretty good story, did enjoy.

Tyson- B

Mike Tyson basically narrates the story of his life, but damned if it isn't engrossing. By the time you see him give up his last fight because "he doesn't have the guts anymore", you can't help but feel empathy for him. It's not an absolving movie, but it does offer insight into the trainwreck.

that part in the intermission when they showed some of the old sketches for buzz and woody was so cool. but our theater cut off at the end of toy story 2 and didnt show the cool bloopers that usually came after it.

anyways

it might get loud - B. page and white were interesting but the edge's parts were pretty boring. not just because im not a fan of u2, just the way he presented himself after white and page had cool stories. this was cool enough.
toy stories 1 & 2 3D - A+. these are two of my favorite movies ever.
manhatten - B+. finally got to seeing this. good, but match point is still my fav woody allen movie.
the invention of lying - C+. good bits here and there but got awfully cheesy as it went along, plus jennifer garner is so bad. jason bateman has one of the best cameos in recent memory in this movie, though.

a serious man next week and where the wild things are after that. i kinda wanna see zombieland too, lots of good movies. even better if they come out in the theater across the street because i get free ***s there.

the old model for woody was quite possibly the creepiest thing ever.

Dexter Season 3 B

i see what people were saying how it was a bit of a disappointment - more of a soap opera than a thriller. still some great stuff. when miguel lost his cool on top of the metro PD i was blown away. curious to see where season 4 takes the show.

manhatten - B+. finally got to seeing this. good, but match point is still my fav woody allen movie.




I own the "Woody Allen Collection" but it is of course missing multiple films. Take The Money and Run and Play It Again, Sam. I remember loving MP, but I should give it another go.

Manhattan - I loved this film. It was absolutely wonderful. Pretty creepy how he falls in love with a younger woman though. I couldn't help thinking about all the parallels with his own life.

i saw cloudy with a chance of meatballs (w/ my 11 yr old little bro). there were some jokes where i was the only one laughing. it's your pretty standard cheesy child's movie, but some parts were pretty good. the scenes w/ his dad made me a little emotional, and the scenes in the beginning when he is a child were really good. the whole adventure sentient food making machine monster stuff was pretty stupid but that's to be expected i guess

whenever i watch manhattan i always just want it to be annie hall and it doesnt deliver

Away We Go. C-. did not care for. had a couple of laughs but mostly there was 30 minutes of story drawn out into an hour and a half film.

I watched this yesterday and totally concur with your rating and comment.

i just watched "Nell" on hbo. i don't know what to say, i thought foster id a pretty good job, liam nelson didn't piss me off either.

did you watch it in 3D?

no

just saw dexter s04e02

pretty good again! although we now know what to expect of course.

no

That's unfortunate.

Park Jan Wook: The Vengeance Trilogy

All As but Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance is the best. Really acting.

i own this trilogy.

Blindness- D

Haha, what a terrible fucking movie. Julianne Moore, as usual, plays a stupid bitch that I want to kill. You get to see her boobs briefly. The end.

Blue Steel- B-

Also an amazingly bad movie, but it made me laugh consistently. The guy who plays the psycho is just so hilarious to look at, and every one of his encounters with Jamie Lee Curtis is painfully funny.

Scrubs Season 6 - dooooownhiiiiiillllllllll

5 > 1 > 4 > 3 > 2 > 6

does scrubs season six have the musical episode and the fairy tale episode because those are two of the worst fucking things in the history of television

does scrubs season six have the musical episode and the fairy tale episode because those are two of the worst fucking things in the history of television
YES

once i realized they were going to sing the whole episode, i just stopped and deleted it. then the "self aware" clip show and laverne dying make me hesitant to even bother with the rest.

but, season 7 and 8 are already on my computer, so i might as well.

so many movies.....

trick or treat D

i finally watched it.....do yourself a favor and skip it.

below A

darren arnofskory does horror right. great movie great cast and suspencefull i would recomend. i know i spelled all of that wrong.

children of the corn(2009) B+

i guess they remade this for tv. this one pretty much goes by the book so i give them much props for that. i wanted to see the girl die after 30 seconds because she is that annoying, but i guess she was suposed to be. i would recomend this one over any others.

the thaw B

val kilmer discovers that ailen bugs unleashed upon the earth by the newest terror of global warming threaten mankind. forgetting all about the interns comming up to study for the semester. the movie is actually not bad though.

office space A+

you expected it to get any other grade? seminal comedy. genius really.

idocratsy

great idea, but not really as good as i expected. my friends say i will like it more the second time so i will hold my judgement untill then.

r.s.v.p B-

at least they let you know they where ripping off rope. if you where a fan of rope then this movie is good fun. decent acting and tollerable cast. no suprises or anything but the ride was fun.

dark country A+

i dunno if i did this one yet. but it is awesome. it's lost highway with a plot.....kinda.

slither C

i guess it was fun? it was cool that the hicks went into the woods looking for the monster, and did not just wait for the monster to come eat them.

mojo jojo is like me in 2007-2008

no because you still gave shitty movies bad grades it was just infuriating to watch you do it

i'd like to think i am more selective now.:smoke:

Sleepaway Camp II B
Some good ol mindless 80's slasher fun. lots of gore + tits = amazing film! i saw the first one a week ago and in comparison this was a bit of a step down. the ending of the first one was the most bizarre thing i have ever seen - if you have never seen it then i highly recommend renting the first sleep away camp. the second is only bad in the sense that you know exactly who the killer is and what her MO is within the first 5 minutes. i guess i wanted more of a mystery like the first one. on the plus side, the cinematography is much more pleasant.

the sandlot was one of my favorite movies growing up. i can quote the whole thing word for word.

Isn't it bizarre how you don't remember kids in movies having such high voice inflections if you saw the movie as a kid? So weird.

this kid was great.

The Boat That Rocked: C+

Pretty darn funny, interesting idea for a movie, brilliant music, just such a shame that the movie doesn't really have a story, no focus, plots are forgotten about or don't go anywhere, plots and characters that you would think are really important get pushed aside... though I still quite enjoyed it.

I was about to watch this, isn't Betsy Draper in the film? Does she get naked?

Do you mean January Jones - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/January_Jones?)

Yes and no.

Yes. JJ. So...you see basically what we saw Sunday when she was walking into the bathroom?

Thanks.

this kid was great.

i am a little behind the times......

me, too. >_>

i can recite all of encino man. bladez tonight.

next time i'm in texas we'll have a pauly shore night and i'll watch you cry.

it was still pretty good though

Last Seduction - A-

I want to have sex with Linda Fiorintino now.

that's pretty gay

i am a little behind the times......
not necessarily because of that but because of the movies you're watching. i went through a huge phase of watching ANY MOVIE that looked even remotely "interesting", no matter who was or wasn't in it. i got way burned out very early this year.


tooth and nail C+

this is one of those horror fest movies or whatever. it was actually kinda good, but a tad on the long side
like this; i used to watch those horrorfest movies and most of them are soooo bad. i saw this one and i think i may have given it the same grade, too.:smoke:

yes but mojo jojo often raves about the bargain bin movies he finds

you always thought they were shit and i was like BRECKIN MEYER MOVIE WHY WHY WHY EVEN PICK UP THE BOX

Erm, trying to remember over almost 2 weeks, some of them very good

Trailer Park Boys - Countdown to Liquor Day = B- Serves as a nice finale to the series, but if you don't know Trailer Park Boys, you'll have no fucking clue or even care what's going on and who these people are. The series is starting to show it's age by now, and even at the ending the creator seems to be sick of it considering how Bubbles flat-out tells the camera crew to "stop fucking following us around". Still, even if you don't know TPB, Lahey is one of the best villians, like, ever, and his descent from sobriety to drunkness madness is hilarious to watch.

Tetro = A-/B+ Francis Ford Coppola's first writer / director effort since "The Conversation" was, uh, leisurely paced to say the least, but the black and white photography is striking. It had an interesting way the story slowly revealed itself, and the fucked up history of this family. The teenage actor kind of reminds me of an Emile Hirsch, but one who can actually act and not just pout. Vincent Galo is kind of overblown, but the character is overblown so it works (and Chloe Sevigny doesn't perform sex acts on him during the movie, so that'll be either a plus or a minus in your book). The entire thing teeters on falling into melodrama at the end (family members are either vaugely threatened with axes or getting splattered by traffic), but that's also a sign that the movie has wrapped you up. Maybe a hair away from being campy and silly, but it actually works. That has a lot to do with the direction, which is real darn purty. When he uses colour for scenes like when Tetro remembers a traumatic car crash, it's a perfect moment.

Moon = A+ Yeah, this movie was great. The visuals were solid, the music was very involving, and Rockwell should get an Oscar Nomination (in a fair universe). I loved the way that Gerty (voiced by Kevin Spacey) was presented with various smiley, happy, frowny faces. It's not "crazy, showy" Sam Rockwell like he can do, but he's more subdued (however, still has moments of crazy) It took me half the movie to realize "Hey, waitaminute, the character's name is Sam and he's played by Sam Rockwell, that's so cool!" but I'm a complete retard. I didn't predict the central twist at all, but I was thinking, like alternate timelines and stuff (Clearly, I've watched Star Trek way too many times already) But, once again, it's a solid story wrapped around the characters, with some real weird scenes and the emotional payoffs succeed (when Sam makes a call back to Earth, try to not wipe the tears from your eyes). Good usage of dialogue to make them seem like regular people and not crazy sci-fi people. Great year for sci-fi in 2009 and I'm not saying that as a friendless basement dwelling sci-fi nerd, well I am, but there's proof with Moon, District 9, and Star Trek all in the 89-95% range on Rotten Tomatoes. (Zombieland, not quite sci-fi but close, is at 88%. I saw that also) Anyway, try to track down "Moon" however you can, I saw it at a one-show-only screening at a local theatre, but if you can find it, see it.

Slacker Uprising = D+ Moore's movie that he gave away for free on his website last year, and you can see why. Just a lot of shots of Moore yelling like a crank angrily and a few less than stellar musical performances (when the best musical performance is a toss up between a comedian singing about how Al Gore lives on his street, which is catchy, or Tom Morello doing a sort of mid-tempo protest song, the flick is in trouble) It's more like a travelogue of Moore going along to different cities in the 2004 election and trying to get people to vote (for Kerry, natch.). There is a bit of a sense of sadness to it since it was all for naught, but it's not really worth anyone's time. Feels more like a glamour project about how darn impassioned Moore is than anything. However, the group yelling "Our Father" and "Hail Mary" in protest at Moore was pretty funny and bizzare.

Capitalism: A Love Story = C I like Michael Moore, but he's been decreasing in quality in each release since Bowling, and this movie was all over the place. I think a lot of it stems from the fact that his other movies had a clear antagonist you can root against: Bowling was about gun violence which was personified in Heston at the end, F9/11 was anti-Bush, Sicko was about the mess of health care, Roger and Me against Ford Motors, but Capitalism is about ... an economic system. That's not sexy to root against. Hell, it's not even tangible. He doesn't present any sort of solution aside from vaugely insinuating that there's gonna be a revoultion against the rich. The stories he selects are tragic, but it does feel a bit explolitive. Bush's 700 billion dollar bailout is demonized, but Obama's 700 billion dollars are not even mentioned. Obama is only shown as a angel of hope and change and yadda yadda yadda. (yes, they're completely different rather complicated dumps of 700 billion, but they were barely months apart. If the movie is presenting "MONEY BAD, PEOPLE GOOD" then why was the cash Obama spent not talked about at all?) There are some dark chuckles and good editing (the opening of bank roberies montage, or the poltically incorrect clips of Regan's movie career, and Moore trying to get into to talk to the CEO's wsa good for a laugh) but even Moore feels tired by the end, considering how he ends the film with directly telling the audience "I can't do this anymore." It needed to be tighter, if the film had focused solely on the recession, that might work. But he's trying to do, like, the entire capitalisic system all in one flim. His reach exceeded his grasp. Wouldn't mind seeing what non-documentary work he's planning to do.

Kill Bill Vol 1 & 2 = A I like Vol. 1 slightly better than Vol 2 (I think it's the better directed one with more striking visuals and colours), and my Top 3 Tarantino would go Vol 1>Pulp Fiction > Vol 2. but they're both great. The tonal shift between 1 & 2 actually works because, after the epic showdown in Vol. 1, where the hell are you gonna go? Finally bought this because I suddenly realized that Tarantino is never, EVER, going to put out the complete cut like he promised half a decade ago, and I saw it on sale for 10 bucks for both movies in one DVD case. Interesting thing is when I opened it up, it was a flipper disc. I didn't know they made those anymore, that's pretty old school. Only stereo and not 5.1, but that was probably so they could cram as much data into the image on each side. I think this is only a Canadian release (it says Aliance Atlantis on the box and on the intro, not Miramax), probably why I haven't seen it mentioned anywhere before. Sure, don't hear the house of the blue leaves fight zipping by my head, but it was a cheap purchase and it's both movies in one package, so what the hell?

Zombieland = A Fucking epic. I'd sit through this movie anyway because it had Emma Stone (Hell, I even saw The Rocker cause she was in it) but the fact that it's a great zombie flick that's very well directed and focuses more on this core group of characters makes it even better. This movie needs to be sent as a memo to Zack Synder (300 & Watchmen) on how to properly use slow-motion. Not just for cool shots, but at the most emotionally important moments (the climax, or the introduction. Also, that credits sequence set to "For Whom the Bell Tolls" was fucking awesome) Awesome cameo that I won't spoil (I knew too much about going in but it was 90% still unexpected). Best usage of super-imposed titles in just about any movie I've seen (the way one of the "rules" popped up on screen and then would fall to the ground is great little touch). And Emma Stone needs more gigs, she's extremely cute and she can actually act too.

I'm either going to start to watch Antichrist, Tyson, or, uh, EuroTrip when I go home tonighter. I'd flip a coin, but I don't have a 3-sided one handy.

emma stone = jules from superbad yeah?

because i love her and one day i'm going to marry her

when she yells "WHAT THE FUCK!" after seth bonks her head while passing out i got a woody.

that's pretty gay

have you seen the movie?

she's maybe the best villain ever.

"Rape me, Mike." <--- best delivery i've maybe ever seen.

no the joke was wanting to have sex with linda florentino is gay...

n/m

no i know. but still. watch it sometime.

Kentucky Fried Movie - B

downloaded this after i saw a youtube clip someone posted a week or so ago. the movie was pretty fun, but a lot of the jokes were rather dated or just plain fell flat. the part i was most looking forward to was the kung fu movie spoof "a fistful of yen" and it did not disappoint. very low budget but still a good film.


emma stone = jules from superbad yeah?

NMOESt. 3 dream master? C+

i used to love theese movies when i was a kid. the only thing that stands out anymore is the awesome special effects.


silent hill D-

watching this movie is like watching someone play a videogame, a bad videogame. the barbed wire monster at the end is cool, but having to sit through two hours of this girl walking around dusty buildings to get to that is unforgivable.

my boss's daughter. C+

i used to love this movie, when i was a drunk, now i only smoke pot so i guess the film suffers for that, great preformances by molly shannon, and david koetchner, but other than that not much here.

The Invention of Lying - B
thought this was really funny. ricky gairvas is hilarious, but the best part was

RG: They'll be whatever mansion you can think of!

guy in audience: aw, man i was thinking of a crappy mansion!

that whole scene was ace and i laughed really loud in the theater. i was a little embarrassed.:blush:

currently watching: Lady from Shanghai

20 minutes in. F-

Harold and Maude: B

lol

emma stone = jules from superbad yeah?

I gotta claim primae noctis rights on that marriage before it's offically sealed, like the bad guy from Braveheart did. But she's amazing cute and she is actually very good in her roles from what I've seen. Haven't brought myself to sit through House Bunny but she's funny and can hit the odd dramatic note too. Her "What the fuck?!" is one of the most memorable moments in Superbad, and she has one of the best little bits in Zombieland with an ill-timed laugh (won't spoil anymore).

Her voice is kind of like she's been drinking whiskey and smoking cigarettes for 5 decades, but it's unique.

yeah well i think her voice is FUCKING HOT so.

but um

i think you should probably listen to Marianne Faithfull if you think that Jules's voice is anything like whiskey and cigarettes for five decades.

not necessarily because of that but because of the movies you're watching. i went through a huge phase of watching ANY MOVIE that looked even remotely "interesting", no matter who was or wasn't in it. i got way burned out very early this year.




well ya know it's october, so to celibrate i am trying to watch mostly horror movies, and there is not really all that much to choose from latley.


drag me to hell C-

what a fucking downer. spoiler alert.

first things first, i dunno what truckstop they found this actress in but i hope they droped her off when they where done. the worst actor i have seen in months, and i am watching horrorfest a lot latley. she looks like pam from the office, but is much much less an actor....moving on. the movie cen never decide on a genre. it starts off being horror and ends being a comedy. scenes turn from horror to comedy on a dime. all the gags from the evil dead trillogy are all here just in case you missed them, and the ones you havent seen before are just stupid. the gags play like seeing someone hit in the balls with a wiffle bat over and over. so with all the bad jokes/scares, the shitty acting, and other stupidities, like a fly landing on the camera lens really brought this movie down.oh and let us not forget the random murder of a kitten. the only good thing i can say about this, is i did laugh 2 or 3 times, the ending was cute. sorry sam time to retire. and a nother film genius is lost.

unearthed C+

an afterdark movie. archeoligists dig up a monster who wants to kill everyone.

land of the lost B+

at least one of them was good. ferrell was pretty restrained in this one so it gets points for that. mcbride proves once and for all he is a genius, even the brit bird handed in a good preformance. it would have been so easy to whitewash this movie and make it a family film and they did not. good laughs fair plot and a pretty fun ride. kinda sorta reminded me of THGTTG and that is a big plus.

Land of the Lost worth watching? The hell you say. Haven't seen it, just heard bad vibes.

Okay, I apologize in advance, but one more bit in this thread about Emma Stone then we can all get on with our lives:

:dammit:

Please God someone make it stop.

yeah Mojo's taste sucks a big one

Thirst. C+. it had some interesting angles and good moments but overall I don't think the film held together very well. Park Chan-Wook's worst film in my opinion but it wasn't terrible.

:dammit:

Please God someone make it stop.

please kill yourself.

what did i watch last night.....


oh yeah


infestation B

from the back of the box it looked retarted. it was actually not bad. the kid could be john cusacs son, and the girl is pretty hot too. and the movie, actually better than the box pointed out and that is rare.


devil's den C+

wow, we finally see devon sawa act and it is in this movie. pretty much just a b version of from dusk till dawn but still pretty entertaining.


planet terror B

so i have seen this before, and it is so fucking great it took me half the film to rember that. i only watchedit because this friend of mine who is a girl would not shut up about it over the last few weeks so i watched it again. i liked it much better this time.


ps drag me to hell was a peice of fucking dog shit

Compared to Land of the fucking Lost? I know tastes differ and all, but there has to be some kind of standard somewhere. And any standard that declares Land of the Lost as anything other than the unwatchable piece of shit that it was needs serious reevaluation. I mean, Jesus Christ man, you almost gave that shit an A.

As for what I watched tonight:

Trick r Treat - C+

It was nothing special. I was expecting something a little more episodic (I had heard too many Creepshow comparisons), but instead the separate story arcs all just kind intertwined and jumbled without you really knowing or caring where they were going to tie together. There were a couple good scares, and the movie did a good job of capturing the feel of Halloween...but it was far from the unreleased classic gem that it was hyped up to be. But I guess it gets points for being A) not a remake, B) not torture porn, and C) not a Saw movie.

mojo is definitely mildly retarded we shouldn't make fun of him too much, it's really super he can take care of himself when you really think about it

ah baby drink and wet has a comment, someone whip out the gold star stickers.

oh 30 rock season 1 A+

rock solid

cause if she was i hate her.

i wanna watch The Goods.

ps drag me to hell was a peice of fucking dog shit
:eek:

:(

Der Knochenmann - A+
There are only a few really good Austrian movies, this is definitely one of them.

Scrubs Season 7 - the shortest season of the series (only 11 episodes!) but I liked it a lot more than 6. Still pretty meh and the downhill is so visible it's painful. Why am I still watching it? Because fuck it that's why.

5 < 1 < 4 < 3 < 7 < 2 < 6

one more season to go. it's not starting out well - they already had a sesame street-themed episode.:erm:

The finale in season eight makes up for seasons five to seven. Completely.

friday the 13th pt 2 D

really was not anything good about this movie.

You lie.

"JASON! MOTHER IS TALKING TO YOU!"

Tres awesome. Solid ending.

That bit was so good they (kinda) ripped it off for the remake

drag me to hell was a definite A+

Is the Unrated cut out yet? Still passed on PG-13 horror. Stood up for something for once in my life.

the informant - A-

great but slightly too long. also i live 40 minutes from decatur so that was cool

For real though, that was an awful overhyped waste of time and there was a reason why it never got a proper release...

Don't hate on mojo if you're going to give crap like that a decent grade.

IT MIGHT GET LOUD doc. Grade: B

For real though, that was an awful overhyped waste of time and there was a reason why it never got a proper release...

It wasn't awful, but it was very mediocre. The lack of theatrical release does make sense after having seen it though.

Don't hate on mojo if you're going to give crap like that a decent grade.

I don't think C+ is a decent grade on my scale. A "C" grade usually means that I was ambivalent to the movie (i.e., sitting through it didn't actively piss me off). I hardly call that a "decent" grade.

Scrubs Season 8 - not very good, but the ending was heavy on the "awwwww" and it would have been annoying on any other show, but since it's scrubs you knew it was going to be sappy.

however, the vacation/wedding episodes were so awful. hardly any show does "off location" episodes very well.

5 < 1 < 4 < 3 < 7 < 8 < 2 < 6

all in all, the show was worth watching I guess. since i watched it at work, it's not like it took any time out of my life that wasn't already going to be wasted away.

the most sad part, though, which actually depressed me was I think in season 5 when jordan's brother/dr cox's best friend died, but you don't find out until the end when they're at his funeral. that shit had me welling up, fighting back a few tears.:erm:

"where do you think we are?"
Dr cox: :(

yea, i got misty.

I know! I have gotten misty a few times during the show's run, but that's one I really remember. I think when most people thing of specific episode, it is either that or the air band episode.

i know i'm a few pages late but i'd fuck just about everyone in superbad

Okay, I apologize in advance, but one more bit in this thread about Emma Stone then we can all get on with our lives:

you know what i'd do? i'd take one of those guacamole guns that they have at taco bell and hold her down and push her face hard into that couch and then spread her ass cheeks apart and ram the guacamole gun up her ass until she has like a pound of that shit up in her colon and then flip her around so she can shit all of it into my mouth. then i'd make her start sucking my dick and i'd puke all over her while she was blowing me and i'd be slapping her in the face and yell YOU SUCK AND EAT IT BLAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11111 and puke some more while she's like eating and throwing up a bit herself and i'd come but it wouldn't really matter because there's shitty guacamole and come and spit everywhere.

then we'd spoon.

Radioactive Dreams B-

all the president's men - A. really good.

You lie.

"JASON! MOTHER IS TALKING TO YOU!"

Tres awesome. Solid ending.

really it's good? i was kinda drunk when i saw it so i will maybe check it out again...........


f13 3 A no fuck it A+

this one if fucking awesome. i had not watched it sence i have seen scream, and it is amazing how many scenes from this movie where re used in scream. had the most going on in terms of plot line so far in the series, with the pissed off bikers, and the depth of several of the charachters, shelly comes to mind. good death sequences, good effects, i did not get to see it in 3d so that sucks, but it was still awesome. classic horror at it's best. it was so good it makes me want to watch 2 again too...

the thirst C-

that might be a little harsh i guess. i mean the movie was pretty bad, but kinda of intresting. i guess they where trying to do something inventive with the vampire genre so i give them credit for that. but it still came across as lazy and post modern, and it just did not really work for me. i am sure people love this movie but i am not one of them.

room 6 B

that actually may be a little high. the movie plays like a lifetime movie but it is full of so much violence and scares that i could not imagine it as one, even staring christine taylor and jerry oconnell some of the violence and scares are awesome. and they come at you constantly, so it's kinda cool. the lifetime ending not only made me misty, but also made me laugh, and that kinda cool, so yeah i liked it the B stands.

undead or alive B-

chris kattan is in this....but it actually ended up being alright, a funny western zombey movie. great laughs and verry entertaining, a break from all the bad horror movies i have been watching latley.



i know i have seen more but i can not remember right now, i'm too excited about getting transformers tommorow :dammit:

saw paranormal activity, and really if you're going to see it, go to a theater. the audience reactions/interactions were entertaining.

also, it creeped me out a great deal. ending was cheesy and ruined the buildup of tension the movie created, but i am sitting at home now not wanting to turn out the lights.

Straightheads- C+

You get to see Gillian Anderson's boobs. One of those movies where there's not enough dialogue to say it's great or it sucks, but entertaining enough to watch.

nightmare on elm 4 dream master. A

this may be the best in the series. alice looks like milla jovanitch

nightmare on elm 5 dream child C

creepshow2 B

nothing at all wrong with this one

Raising Arizona: A+

Year One. C. so it has some laughs which is good. the first half was pretty decent and the second half where it tried to pull a climax together was pretty awful. overall an enjoyable hit and miss comedy.

Wolverine. F. so i watched this. so i start every sentence with so. and i thought it might be campy fun or something but it took itself so seriously while being so awful that it was just a chore. terrible CGI for such an expensive movie. like made for tv level in one scene. jesus. the plot junctions were so poorly thought out and transparently plot-advancing that it was almost funny but instead more depressing that this script was greenlit. ryan reynolds' 3 minutes of screen time near the beginning of the movie were the high point and so that tells you the quality of this film. well, and the unnecessary boxing match did cheer me up with its frivolity.

Zombieland. B-. very uneven, not quite as funny as I've heard, but ultimately it's hard to hate a movie that pairs up woody harrelson and jesse eisenberg. looked really great for its budget. not all of the beats in the movie worked for me but had a unique angle, and the climax was especially creative.

Drag Me to Hell. C. horror movies are so bad these days that if you even come across one that is competently made, it's a huge success. this movie was decent but it didn't do much for me and was predictable. doesn't really get my recommendation.

Blindness- D

Haha, what a terrible fucking movie. Julianne Moore, as usual, plays a stupid bitch that I want to kill. You get to see her boobs briefly. The end.


you know i think this movie will be a cult classic of sorts in 20 years. it has a weird kind of surreal style to it and interesting subject matter. not completely successful, not at all, and i was disappointed by it, but i think it has what it takes for a cult type film. but hey, I like The Invasion. wish they would release a directors cut of that film but I'm probably the only one clamoring for that.

i know this movie is brutally awful

Texas Chainsaw Masacre (original) B

Pretty scary for a movie that is over 30 years old. Most of the dialog is laughable. My biggest complaint is that people don't think anything through - "hey a hitchhiker let's pick em up...what a weirdo, let's wait 10 minutes before kicking him out" "thank goodness this semi stopped here, oh i guess we're not just gunna drive off" . I was really surprised at how there was absolutely no blood. Most of the violence was done off screen, a slight disappointment. In '73 this probably shocked a lot of people, but it is pretty tame compared to today's standards. Still enjoyable.

Weeds, Season 1 - C+

apparently it gets better.

i just finished watching the fifth season, i enjoyed all of them

I like this one less than 2, but it does have creative kills (handstand walk kill FTW) and the introduction of the hockey mask. However, what drove me nuts were the clearly trying to wow you 3-D shots. There's a bit of someone playing with a fucking YO-YO for, like, 5 minutes in the frame. I mean, COME ON!

I have a soft spot for Jason X. It's just insanely goofy. "This sucks on so many levels!" Gold!

Nightmare on Elm Street 5- C+

hey man the yo yo scene is only like 2 minuites. and yeah if you are not watching it in 3d i t is kind of a let down. but it's awesome in 3d. i mean the hokey mast aside i really think this is the movie that kept the franchise alive, and i just found 2 too be kinda flat. the handstand death is pretty damn cool though.

hallows end C-

i like the concept of a haunted house, having all the scenes come to life. but this movie sucked. the acting was not bad, but the script was. i mean i guess in the real world a girl would invite both her boyfriend and lesbian lover to camp with her right? you know just do not watch this.

shaun of the dead

i have avoided this film for so long, and finally broke down and watch it. i still can not bring myself to give it a grade though. it is not bad.

Weeds, Season 2 - B+

much better, not that the first was horrible, but i like where the show is going. excellent season finale!

Has anybody seen Where the Wild Things are yet? It seems to getting mixed reviews but I'll probably go see it anyway.

I'm hoping to see it this weekend at some point. I've been looking forward to it for a long time and all the bad reviews I've seen saying it was too bleak, depressing and plotless are only making me more excited.

I want to see it pretty badly, but I also want to see the Toy Story double feature. I'm torn. I'll probably end up waiting to long and missing out on both.

Observe and Report- C

I didn't know it was a dark comedy going in, so I was confused for a little bit. It's just not very good.

i unabashedly love all seasons of weeds. i don't watch it live though so no spoilers for the most recent one, plz

Has anybody seen Where the Wild Things are yet? It seems to getting mixed reviews but I'll probably go see it anyway.
most likely we'll go see it on tues or wed. amc making tix $5 all week is the best decision they ever did. i've gone to see more movies in the past month then i did all last year.

i unabashedly love all seasons of weeds. i don't watch it live though so no spoilers for the most recent one, plz
i'll keep that in mind

Zombieland - B+

Really good movie, lots of laughs, nice zombie kills. I constantly compared it to shaun of the dead for its use of zombies in a comedy/drama so i think that influenced me to lower the grade. i would give SOTD an A no doubt, but in comparison Zombieland is just a little lower than that. some of the laughs are too far apart, but it is totally worth seeing for one reason.

highlight for spoiler: zombie billy murray

Million Dollar Baby - B+
I was never a huge Eastwood or boxing fan, and I absolutely detest Hillary Swank, but this was somewhat decent.

Gran Torino - A-
A bit better, but cheesier.

surrogates - i thought it was a little weird that the first thing i saw about this was a random banner online. turns out its cause the movie is painfully average, despite having a potentially interesting setup for a modern scifi. C---

bender's big score - A
the beast with a billion backs - A-

ive been going through all futurama slowly over the past few months, now im at the movies. solid futurama, as usual. i once saw bender's big score but it was only on in the background, im def glad i sat down and watched it. i love how the only way to really appreciate these movies is having watched the entire series. i was also happy the way they wrapped up seymour's story in big score. id always secretly hoped they'd do something about that

a serious man - A-
made me feel nearly the same way i felt went i left the theater after synecdoche, new york. i think its the coens weirdest movie, unlike any other of their films, ending is fucking great and didnt expect it when it came. going to see it again, for sure.

hallows end C-

... you know just do not watch this.



I think the problem with mojo jojo's reviews is that he feels the rating scale ends at C-.

Tyson- B

Mike Tyson basically narrates the story of his life, but damned if it isn't engrossing. By the time you see him give up his last fight because "he doesn't have the guts anymore", you can't help but feel empathy for him. It's not an absolving movie, but it does offer insight into the trainwreck.

yeah i just finished this yesterday and what a character. the movie doesn't encourage you to feel one way or the other about tyson, which is what i liked. most bio-docs seem to push one way or the other, but this movie since he narrates it just leaves you with tyson in conversation. the empathy i felt was that of just someone who just doesn't know any better, and you wish they did.

worth an hour and a half for sure. i was just sorry that it wasn't created after the death of his daughter, only because i would have liked this style of conversation from him regarding her.

Where the Wild Things Are I highly recommend. There were some bits and pieces that didn't work for me but over all I thought it was really terrific.

Zombieland - I really didn't like this, at all. I got in for free which was nice, but jeez, it didn't get one decent laugh out of me.

Weeds, Season 3 - C-

letdown. season finale was complete bullshit, too.

highlight for spoiler: i know it's a tv show and everything, but come on. you're just going to start a fire in your house while two officers are outside?

i'd like to see where the wild things are.

i really liked the first two Weeds seasons. the third one wasn't good at all and the ones after that I just kept watching because i'm wachting.

coincidentally I also watched this tonight. It was pretty bad, but I would give it a C-

i liked it

Battle Royale - B+

goodness gracious

Battle Royale is probably top 20 of the decade for me

Land of the Lost. C-. yeah I just watched this because nothing new is really coming out and I can use some crappy movie watching time once in a while. lately it's been fairly often. eh. anyway it was kind of fun to see a Hollywood fantasy film in this vein as ones not specifically aimed at kids don't come out often but on the other hand it was pretty mediocre.

The Informant!. B-. it was a nice film, good performance from Damon yeah, and great casting all around. drags a little though, comes across as feeling slow. the Marvin Hamlisch score was something I was not expecting.

Whatever Works - C+

Curb

Season 4 - A
Season 5 - B+

ium......

blood the last vampire C+

this movie gets a good grade because the white girl in it is super hot. and they where trying to do something new even if it just ended up being weird.

FOTCC season 2 A

i just keep watching it over and over....i hear season one is better?

30 rock ses 1 A+

the first season os this show was so awesome, i dunno what happened. i think AD is the only show that has been awesome for all seasons........well maybe seinfeld.

FOTCC season 2 A

i just keep watching it over and over....i hear season one is better?



absolutely. go watch it. i told you to last time you gave season 2 an A.

where the wild things are
saw it with my mammy. she kinda didnt wanna go at first but in the end she liked it. she said she thought it was gonna be just a childish movie. i actually cried at four different points. and i was actually scared for max a lot. oh man. i would totes see it again.
the boy who plays max shares my birthday! ^_^ he is adorable.

oh the horror.....

freddy vs jason B

the blood efects where very over the top, and freddy's makeup was actually kinds shitty, but the movie entertained.

TCSM A+

the first one not all the shitty remakes, i have not seen this one in five years, but this movie, creeped me out. this really may be the best horror film ever. also was not a good i dea to watch it while eathing sushi.

big nothing C

it was funny but not laugh at funny.

hot fuzz B-

those two fellas make a good pair, but the movies do not really do it for me.

Wes Craven's New Nitemare - C

This movie didn't need to be made. the plot was so flimsy and didn't really go anywhere. there is no charm that the previous movie had and there is only one death. seemed really long.

Interview With the Vampire - A

Great acting, great writing, fabulous movie. Engrossing tale with no slow moments - moved right along for a 2 hour movie. its a shame there wasn't a proper sequel to this movie.

A's New Nitemare - C

This A didn't need to be made. the plot was so flimsy and didn't really go anywhere. there is no charm that the previous movie had and there is only one death. seemed really long

Freddy's Dead had charm?

I meant for that to be movies. the series was fun and entertaining. freddy didn't really work as just a straight villain.

whip it - B
evolution - B

whip it soundtrack is painfully indie btw but it was nice to hear some jens lekman and see some lesbians and maeby is in it

From Dusk Till Dawn - B+

This movie was pretty fucking cool. I remember trying to rent it when it first came out and when I brought it to the counter the woman told my Mum that I was just trying to get it to see naked women. Fucking bitch.

the truth hurts.

From Dusk Till Dawn - B+

This movie was pretty fucking cool. I remember trying to rent it when it first came out and when I brought it to the counter the woman told my Mum that I was just trying to get it to see naked women. Fucking bitch.

Reminds me of the time that my mom tried to rent me Pulp Fiction when it first came out. She got a similar lecture from the clerk about exposing me to the bad language in the movie.

Paranormal Activity - B

Considering this is basically "Blair Witch 2009," it was still amazingly effective. I'm glad I saw it in the theater. Multiple people were so terrified at the end that they were literally sprinting at top speed down the aisles to the exits. I'd never seen anything like that before. Overall though, the movie itself is a good, creepy little film...just not anything never seen before. Might lose something if not seeing it with a crowd.

Observe and Report was one of those that wasn't very well done but still a really good time. I almost feel like the original script was even darker and more fucked up but they had to reign it in to get it even barely palatable to mainstream audiences.

Why would I blow up the Chik Fil A, it's fucking delicious!

Weeds, Season 4 - B

def took a turn for the dark.

Saw - C+
You can say what you want about the other five (right?) movies, the first one was almost a good and clever thriller.

Der Untergang (The Downfall) - B
Wah wah wah self-important Nazi glorification.

The Royal Tennenbaums - A-
I really, really like this movie.

downfall is glorification?

hitler's a man-child in that movie
