....There's not much to say about this movie that's already been said. Go watch it if you have the time, It's amazing.

Harry Potter and the sorcerer's stone
Everyone knows the story of him, right? So, there's basically nothing for me to say on this peculiar subject. This is in fact my all time favorite movie, I shouldn't say I'm a huge fan, but I'am one of them and I know just about everything about Harry Potter. More then I ought to, cruse my younger self for reading the books soo many times. Ah well the books were the best thing to ever happen to in my life anyways Peace and Love: J.M Manucy aka iluvBlooQKazoo |

Vacancy
First time I saw the trailer for this, I thought it looked bland and simply average at best. Then I read/heard many good things and finally watched it tonight on demand HD and I got to say, I was incredibly impressed. Very well paced horror/drama movie, not too spooky and not too watered down. Luke Wilson worked wonders as a horror actor, tho I always hate Kate Beckinsale even in this. The pacing was done nicely and the characters didn't do typical stupid horror cliches or mistakes. Everyone acted realistically, intelligently, and accurately. This is a very well done movie for fans of horror, drama and movie fans in general. Definitely recommend checking this one out. Jeepers Creepers One of the best movies I have ever seen in my life and still to date, ranks up high in my top ten favorite movies of all time. Its chilling, creepy, shocking, features magnificent camera work and music that still gives me goosebumps and features one of my favorite movie monsters, free of crappy CGI beasts. They don't work in horror movies as well as make up and prosthetic puppets and this movie shows they can still be freaky.

Naked Lunch
Quoth Nelson Muntz, "I can think of at least two things wrong with that title!" Definitely a lot closer to Cronenberg's sensibilities than it is to Burroughs', this remains a very unique and well-made film, though it does take quite a bit of stomaching at times (like I say, this is a distinctively Cronenberg film). What I like most about it, aside from Peter Weller's strong leading performance, is the awesome puppetry - a good selection of which undoubtedly ranks amongst the most grotesque and unnerving puppetry that you're ever likely to see, but it's hard to deny that there is a certain kind of flair and power to its repulsiveness.

The Faculty
Not a lot of people remember this movie from "Sin City" director Robert Rodriguez but I really enjoyed and really liked it. I call it the recycled actor movie because it has a lot of odd various actors mixed together from Elijah Wood, Salma Hayek, Jon Stewart, Robert Patrick etc. A few days ago I saw Death Note 2: The Last Name and it really, really kicked ass even though I hadn't seen the first movie or the anime series at all. I've heard about it but never seen and since this was such a fantastic movie and such a rare treat to see it my local theaters, I felt the need to mention it.

The Sum of all fears
Brokeback Mountain I'll admit it. I didn't actually make it right to end ofThe Sum of all fears and only really brought it up to point out that the bomb that's dropped on President farmer Hoggett is nothing compared to the one that's dropped on poor Ennis Del Mar and everyone watching for that matter. And if that wasn't enough to cope with you get to the end of the film and realise that the brilliant actor you've just been watching isn't going to be in any more movies. Phew. Life is such a fragile thing I'm certainly not going to waste any more of it on The Sum of all fears. Oh yeh. Donnie Darko was surpising convincing as a middle-aged man too. So yes, cowboy Hats off to Ang Lee, good movie!

Iron Man- The more I see it, the more I love it. I have high expectations for the sequel, not only because this one was awesome but because Superhero sequels are usually better than the original. Batman < Batman Returns X-Men < X2: X-Men United Spider-Man < Spider-Man 2 Batman Begins < The Dark Knight Fantastic Four < Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer Once I see it, Hellboy 2 will probably be on the list.

Me, I liked Two-Face. I may be alone on this, but I actually wound up liking him even more than I did the Joker...with no disrespect intended to Heath, who did a magnificent job, but there was just something about TF's character which appealled to me more.
Im Lauf der Zeit (Kings of the Road) A very well-made German-language film from Wim Wenders about a chance encounter between a travelling movie projectionist and a suicidal hitch-hiker who then join forces for a couple of days. It actually took me a few sittings to get through to the end - partly because I've been really busy lately, but also because, at 170-odd minutes, this is hardly a short beastie. There isn't very much in the way of conventional action, or even an enormous amount of dialogue, but it's an engaging, deeply understated "slice of life" drama with some lovely long atmospheric shots. Be warned that Wenders clearly doesn't object to the inclusion of certain bodily function shots.

it wasnt the violence thing, it was the whole "like, oh my gawrsh, every single bone on that side of his skull is just sticking out" factor that made me kinda scared.(scarred? i need to work on my spelling.) and other than that little thing, i thought he was cool. made a good character, had alot of good lines. dont know how to really explain it, but i just thought he was a good character.
uh, the last movie i watched... uhm.. i suppose it was "to kill a mockingbird" in english class. only about half-way through it i suppose. still only on like chapter 6 in the book, though.

I thought his amount of screen-time was disappointing but atleast it was a vast improvement over the "Batman Forever" Two-Face.
The Incredible Hulk First time seeing & I'm impressed. It was a fun movie & I really liked how it set up for future events in this new Marvel movie universe. My only con being it felt too short. Plus, Abomination filled the same role that Iron Monger did in "Iron Man", to be a villain who really doesn't do anything except fight the hero in the finale.
