Cloverfield was pwn to the power of awesome. I must see this movie, which I plan on doing soon I hope. I watched the Japanese version of the ring, and I must say, the US really needs to stop making remakes, the originals are just as bad, yeah, I said it. |

I think Disney released "The Cat Returns" to DVD for R1 sometime last year.
And I don't believe the "Cloverfield was good" remarks. >_>

I saw Cloverfield tonight. It's pretty darn good. However, I am apparently one of the unfortunate few who Cannot ____ing Handle prolonged disorienting visual stimuli. I've been on the verge of throwing up since I got out. Four hours ago. I got a headache early on, then got a little dizzy, then my stomach started to hurt a bit, and then I started BURPING and I was like, "oh. oh no." Aaaand then I started to taste bile. But I said to myself, "look, I am NOT going to be that person who throws up in this theater." So I didn't. Still, not fun. Not fun at all.
Still, though... it kind of added to the experience...
[EDIT:] Whaaaat, there's a naughtyword filter now? Since when? D: Was that really always there? OBJECTION!

wait, I know that I've said shit without it being bleeped.
Anyway, yeah I got a little nauseous from Cloverfield, too. Which was really weird because that's never happened to me from a movie before.
NOT THAT BIG OF A SPOILER ALERT

there was one thing that bothered me about it, and you'd probably have to live in/near NYC to even notice it:
When they're all on the roof, looking at the omgwtf happened, the view makes it seem like the party was in Brooklyn, it was a nice panoramic shot of lower Manhattan. But when they get outside, they're in the middle of lower Manhattan. That bugged me a little.

Forget ya Cloverfields. You need to visit The Orphanage. It's really well directed, with some crushing irony, and damn, damn it's scary. Like "staying up in bed for an extra hour, talking about the movie because you're both freaked" scary. With this, Shyamalan doesn't even compare to Del Toro. I haven't seen Pan's Labyrinth, but according to my gf, The Orphanage was even better than that. |

Got back from a campus showing of "We Own the Night".
As per tradition, it was an early take or something, so it was too tall, cutting off almost all subtitles for the Russian throughout, and boom mics were prevalent. Also, it didn't have the opening credits. Things that JMU's theater does oddly aside, quality movie, sad, emotional, and though the protagonist does some really stupid stuff near the end, still fairly easy to suspend the disbelief.

Shoot 'Em Up was just about the most implausible movie I've ever seen.
But it still kicked ass.

hahaha, nah couldn't be further from the truth. I'll send a PM, though you can learn my location by finding a certain thread in the forum. I felt that The Da Vinci Code was a book with interesting substance but poor style, and the movie was the same.
Just finished watching the 1957 classic, The Seventh Seal. Pretty profound. Pretty damn good. It's definitely going in my collection. |

oh, i got the pm, but i had no i dea what you were talking about... there was recently a very big-to-do film fest in palm springs that had the orphanage as a major go-see
if you think about it, the davinci code actually makes no sense... I am a catholic, and have never felt that they tried to take away christs humanity. the only thing that did make sense was that jesus was a jew, which makes it reasonable that he should have married. I need a jewish person to explain that more thoroughly to me, however...
i saw mean girls on tv.

I went to see Young Frankenstein last Saturday!!! Truly excellent. Even though I knew all of the punchlines, I still laughed my head off. Roger Bart (Carmen Ghia in The Producers) was a little weak as Dr. Frankenstein, but Andrea Martin was great as Frau Blucher and Megan Mullally, who played Elizabeth was amazing.
