I recently watched [i:fe4323eaae]Pulp Fiction[/i:fe4323eaae] On Movies on Demand (Which is really cool). It was very good, but some of it was a little over my head. Still, it is definatly a movie I would like to see again (and possibly re-examine the parts that confused me).

We saw Transamerica last night. It was quiite impressive, the way Felicity Huffman plays the part, you can actually believe she is a transsexual, after seeing her in Desperate housewives, it's really weird...

I just saw [i:ac66853c70]Brick[/i:ac66853c70]. The acting was phenomenal, and it was probably the best film I have seen since [i:ac66853c70]Munich[/i:ac66853c70]. It centered around the Dark criminal underwold hiding in plain sight of Suburban Northern California.

I've watched Soul Music this weekend. It's less funny than the book itself but overall it was quite nice. I really liked the music and Lee as Death is a great choice.

One major dissapointment to me was Death of Rats. He says SQUEAK in the books, but in the movie it goes squeak. the same difference as gaspode saying woof instead of going woof. This was fairly annoying.

Went to see Scary Movie 4 last week, some really funny moments but number 3 is still the best in the series to my mind.

Lessons derived from A History of Violence, with Viggo Mortensen as a former mobster (maybe):

1) Mobsters can't shoot

2) Philadelphia mobsters can't shoot at ALL

3) The only people who get successfully shot by Philly mobsters are [i:1d4b691413] other [/i:1d4b691413] Philly mobsters. Preferably, if they're already lying on the ground with a mortal injury of some kind.

4) If a Philly mobster shoots you at a point-blank range, he'll hit your shoulder. Once you start running away at a leisurely pace, the mobster will continue shooting and miss every time.

5) Aragorn kicks ass!


Aside from all that, it was a surprisingly good movie, with some nice subtle moments toward the end!

I have seen a lot of movies lately, but the last and the best was V for Vendetta, quite an amazing film, a kind of mixture of old swashbuckling films, Cyrano de Bergerac, Orwell's 1984, matrix-like action movies and that internet movie about how the whole 9-11 attacks were perpetrated by the US government... Well mix those together, add the story of Guy Fawlkes, Hugo Weaving (although you don't actually see his face) and Nathalie Portman, plus Steven Fry being a typical himself, and you get one hell of a movie...

I've not seen many new films lately but I did watch King Knog on DVD the other night. I never really fancied it in the cinema but I was quite impressed. Not too shabby.

I'm probably going to go and watch The Da Vinci code in the cinema soon, it looks pretty good. Also Tom Hanks is a legend.

ever seen reservoir dogs? it's the first movie by q. tarantino...it many views it's better than pulp fiction (although I think p.f. is one of the best movies of all time...it makes my top 10 list any day of the week...)

Last movie I saw was scary movie 4...luckily I got stoned and it was very late so I was pretty much braindead so I could laugh at shaq and dr phil...

and recently I can hardy wait each week to watch prison break and lost...especially prison break...the 21st part is awesome...if you don't know the series I strongly recomend it...you don't know what you're missing out on...

I have not seen [i:ae1e275171]reservoir dogs[/i:ae1e275171], though I have seen both parts of [i:ae1e275171]Kill Bill[/i:ae1e275171]. KB was not as good as Pulp Fiction, but it were still good.

Sorry I know its bad form to laugh at other peoples typos (I make loads) but I couldn't help laughing at King Knog -

He sounds like the absolute ruler of some group of people, and is worshiped by his people The Knogites :o

I was driving last week listening to the Lost Boys sound track, got me thinking how long its been since i watched it.
I put it on when i got in from work and OMG, i forgot what a top film it was........

Best quote "stay away from me, you're a goddamn shit sucking vampire Michael and I'm telling mom......"

Might have to go back to the oldies for a while, Top Gun, Dirty Dancing, The Breakfast Club.....classics!

Aw, come on, we haven't laughed at Kenny for such a long time, I think we're allowed to laugh at this particularly funny one At least, until Garner sets fire to us or disembowels us in an original fashion. Ok, laugh [u:7a94a0b1fc]fast[/u:7a94a0b1fc]...

Goodness it's been a while since this has been updated!

I have seen many movies in recent days, vacations being what they are.
Here are some of the highlights:

Fightclub -- I rented this and enjoyed it immensly. I have to watch it again so I can enjoy it again!
X-men 3 -- There was too much going on, but it wasn't a bad movie.
Dogma -- I enjoyed this immensly too. Anything that goes for humor at the expense of Catholicism works for me.
An Inconvenient Truth -- otherwise known as 'that Al Gore Global warming movie'. It was a great movie. Go see it if you get the chance.

I just watched The Big Lebowski again the other night. I haven't seen it in a long time, but it's as good as ever. "The Dude abides.."

Purely on multiple reviews I went out and bought Boondock Saints. Great show. William Dafoe is just a tad insane, but damn good and the two leads (no idea who they are) are also damned good. I heard plans for a sequel fell through though which really is too bad, but I doubt they could have repeated anyways.

edit- it's too early to spell.
