Last seen movies

I really hated Superman Returns. Didn't like that it tried to be a sequel to the original movies, thought Kate Bosworth was horrible, the writing was stupid, the direction was leaden. Even the decision to darken the colors of Superman's costume was wrong-headed. The only character in the movie I liked was the guy Lois had hooked up with - he seemed more genuinely heroic than Superman.

Watched Invictus the other night. It was pretty solid. Good acting.

Robocop

My favorite movie EVER!!!

Suburban Commando!!!

Finished Return Of The Living Dead today.

I forgot what a fun movie that is. Another Dan O'bannon classic.

From Paris With Love - Pretty good shoot em up flick! Travolta kicked a$$ and got his royal w/ cheese!

Faceoff

I caught most of 'Year One' last night on cable while I was going through the mail. Missed the first 15 minutes or so. Despite my hatred of Jack Black, I thought there was some pretty funny scenes and jokes in there. Michael Cera was funny.

Monster That Challenged The World

Max Payne. The babe factor was the only reason.

Are You Scared? A low buget Saw rip off.

I've been watching the first season of Fringe the past couple of days. Right now I'm watching Willow.

The Wolfman

Pretty good. Not as great as I thought, but pretty good.

My wife and I were in that barn where his brother's body was kept when we were in England last year! I thought something looked very familiar, so I paused the movie to look up it's filming locations and lo, and behold, there it was.




It's a 6-700 year old barn preserved basically how it's been for centuries.



This is the barn from the outside.

watched an old Paul Newman flick 'Fort Apache, Bronx' it was so dated and does not hold up at all.

Desk Set - Spencer Tracy

That movie wasn't that great at the time. It was the inspiration for the TV show Hill Street Blues.

One of my all-time favorites....

Return of the Living Dead has sent me on a Dan O'Bannon kick. Up now:

The Resurrected.

my neighbor is letting me borrow a bunch of action movies...the woman is like 80 she was like "these arent my type of movies" hahahaha.


U 571
The hunt for red october
The final countdown
Dune
sometimes a great notion

The Hunt for Red October was good.

The origional Clash Of The Titans. Despite the graphics being so dated, this is such a superior movie to the butchered (I mean re-made) one. They did a lot with what little technology they had at the time while the new one had a wealth of tchnology at their fingers.

Lethal Weapon I & II

Mystery Science Theater 3000 version of The Killer Shrews.


"Killer shrews, Killer shrews........"

Donnie Darko - Director's Cut (blu ray)

Great (cheesy) flick. I have the non-MST3K version in a cheap-o box set called "50 Horror Classics."

The first time I watched that movie, I was going crazy trying to figure out why the guy playing the hero looked so damn familiar. It wasn't till I looked the movie up on IMDb that I found out it was James Best, who went on to play Sheriff Roscoe P. Coltrane on "Dukes of Hazzard."
