For the last few days I've had mega urge to watch that movie again. Alas it was a rental and I -still- don't own a copy.

*note to self, BUY that movie in the next 24 hours*

I lurve Seven Samurai. Quite possibly my favourite classic movie.

Today I watched Serenity, for probably the millionth time. Love Serenity and love firefly..

Firefly is one of my favourite shows. I watched Serenity before it and loved the movie. After watching the entire season of Firefly I found that I didn't like Serenity as much. It's still a great movie but I just think many aspects of it could have been executed in a much more powerful way.

I watched the first 20 minutes of Southland Tales, the new movie from Richard Kelly (Donnie Darko). I only watched the first 20 minutes because I couldn't actually keep from falling asleep. Granted, it was late, but I just couldn't make out WTF was actually going on. I will get through it eventually. I've just realised I have the new episode of Lost to watch. Which makes me think there should be a thread to discuss it. Anyone agree?

The Mist ; good movie, but christ I HATED the religious nut...I actually applauded alone in my room when she got what she deserved.

Sweeney Todd : that's the Johnny Depp / TIm Burton movie. The whole chanting (80% of the movie) can be a real turn off, but I still enjoyed it. Niche movie.

Dialogue avec mon jardinier (DIalogue with my gardner?) : french movie, was boring

Alvin and the Chipmunks ; oh man...the "/?&?/& squirrels...can't hear them anymore.

Bought Imprint, liked it, the torture scene was tough to watch though. Oh, and I laughed a couple of times too, even if it's a horrror movie. Takashi Miike seems to accomplish this with every movie he does, it's gruesome yet sometimes has humor.

A lot of the horror-ish movies seem to be opting for the downer ending these days.

Aside from the ending, how was it? The previews for it look pretty awful, and Stephen King has NOT been on the ball lately. Plus, "The Mist" is a lame title.

The Mist is an excellent short story and I thought the film was largely faithful. They changed the ending for no reason though. Oddly enough they didn't actually change the tone of the ending, they just made it way less subtle.. as if the audience wouldn't get it otherwise.

Oh and it is less dark than the short story too now when I think about it.. but.. yeah.

Nevertheless the most successful supernatural Stephen King adaptation in... forever. The Shining is an excellent film but it's ultimately got little to do with the novel.

Funny Games. Absolutely brilliant. Although it was one of the hardest things to watch that I can recall. The acting is excellent from everyone (minus the kid...kids aren't often great) but I especially thought the two teens were superb. They were menacing and my heart was pounding throughout the entire film. I recommend this one fully.

Lions for Lambs : I'm tired of movies about September 11 and I'm not even from the United States. The whole time it just felt boring, although the dialogue is interesting and doesn't go too much into patriotism, well, except if you only listen to Cruise who acts a senator. It shows how the press can be manipulated too. Overall I didn't enjoy it.

There Will Be Blood : another amazing snoozefest.
