I saw "Forgetting Sarah Marshall". It wasn't bad, but I'm glad it was free

I have never been an anal bottom.

Jaws is on FIOS on demand for $3.99.

Watched No Country for Old Men last night.

How this movie won for best picture is beyond me.

Boring, boring, boring and did I mention boring.

Javier Bardem might be the worst "bad guy" in a movie ever. How he won an academy award for best supporting actor is for that role is also a amazing.

Couldn't wait for this piece of shit to end.

A huge disappointment.

This was Westerns week, I suppose.

Saw "3:10 to Yuma" the other night. Very so-so. If you saw it, explain why he was motivated to help take himself to the train (no spoiler)? Overall, watchable, but nothing special.

Attempted "The Assassination of Jesse James" last night. Just awful. Gave up at about the 1 hour mark. One big problem is the acting. Usually, Brad Pitt is a good actor and believable in his character (Tyler Durden anyone?), but this one just seemed like Brad Pitt, not Jesse James. Can't even rate it as I did not finish the picture.

I saw the original and the ending of the original was also strained. The psychologican interplay (original) was pretty good. It was the second re-make of a Glenn Ford movie I'd seen recently. The other was "Ransom," which Mel Gibson re-did later. Gibson's was better.

Don't know if I'll watch the remake of Yuma.

"psychologican" = psychological

i mentioned this in the old thread. made absolutely zero sense. felt like i was watching a screenplay written by a 20 year old film student.

The film fest starts soon. Some of the ones I'm seeing:

Forget the name, but a movie about Richie Ashburn. His son found a lot of home movies Whitey took during his playing days

"What We Do is Secret", which is a biopic of Darby Crash/The Germs

"Bad Biology" - Horror movie from the guy who did "Basketcase"

Not sure about the others, but I get 5 free movies and 50% of the rest, so I'm seeing a shitload

I thought "Into the Wild" was superb. All the swirling helicopter shots around Hirsche kinda bothered me, but I really liked everything else.

For shits and giggles, my brother and I spent part of our vacation in Slab City about 2 weeks ago. No, seriously, we did.

I'll bet the ending must have left you quite fulfilled, as w--

Your post is more fulfilling.

I give it two thumbs down.

Gone Baby Gone is a very good film.

Best film I've seen in awhile.

Kept you guessing all the way to the end.

Highly recommend.

I watched a doc called "Manufacturing Dissent" about Michael Moore last night on Sundance and it wasn't bad.

It came off a little like a jilted schoolgirl railing on an ex-crush, but it was interesting to see some of the lies included in his films. I always figured he did, but never really knew details.

Wait- what?

Moore doesnt lie!

Enjoyed AND disliked No Country for Old Men. Javier Bardem was both interesting and lame. Loved the interaction at the gas station with the attendant.

I think its overarching theme of "times they are a chaning" was way too much of a reach.

Incidentally, if you are going to use a needle and you are not doing anything other than veno-puncture or an intramuscular injection, YOU DON'T NEED TO FLICK THE AIR OUT OF IT. Its on every movie I've ever seen. Air in a needle needs to be eliminated ONLY if you are injecting an artery. Everything else is irrelevant. Particularly if you are using a 5-10 cc syringe.

Well, I meant flicking air out of a syringe. But you get the meaning.

"30 Days of Night"...


113 minutes of suck....

I think its overarching theme of "times they are a chaning" was way too much of a reach.

The theme was actually that darkness and violence were always strong presences in the world, and as evidenced in his conversation with Ellis, Bell needs to stop complaining and get on with it.

This was much better fleshed out in the book. I thought the movie didn't touch on it enough, actually.

every junkie knows that.

Zak,

Didn't get that impression from the movie at all. References to how the "old timers" protected the public without guns and "if I'd told you 20 years ago there'd be teenagers walking around with green hair you wouldn't believe me" seemed to be pushing the incredulity of the "old men" and time's inevitable march onwards. That he was sitting around at the end trying to figure where he fit into this "new world" hardly spoke to me about the pervasive evil through the land that persisted over time.

No siree.
