"House on Haunted Hill" (the '50s version with Vincent Price) - fun stuff

One Hour Photo

I enjoyed the film while I was watching it but in retrospect, it's actually pretty plotless. Robin Williams' performance definitely makes the film.

Fight Club

Another Vincent Price oldie - "Last Man on Earth" (later remade as "The Omega Man" and again as "I Am Legend")

Watched 'Superman II:Richard Donner Cut" which is actually a little bit better then the original film

Nurse Betty - love this flick, hadn't seen it since it first came out. How can you dislike a comedy where someone gets scalped in the first 15 minutes?

The Delta Force

I Love You, Man

It's Complicated. Thanks to this movie I've learned that adultery is way cool and completely healthy for everyone's emotional well-being. Also, you can never have a kitchen too big, even if it's bigger than many people's homes. Selfishness is AWESOME!

Iron Man 2. Thought it was pretty cool. Not sure if I liked the first one better or this one, but I'll get the dvd when it comes out.

Lost - Final Episode (2nd time)
Transporter 3 (dumb movie, cute redhead russian chick)

The Burrowers - It was Okay, it was something different. I think the general idea is decent, but could have been handled better.

Spoiler:

Doubt - Very good movie.

Amelie - Never seen this before. A very good, unique/quirky movie. It was just plain old good fun.

I've been meaning to watch Doubt, thanks for the reminder. Amelie is a great flick!

Avatar. Biggest load of poo i've seen. I don't understand why people like this, just seems silly.

There was so much hype for it it made me NOT want to see it. Plus I think James Cameron is extremely overrated in the first place. I dunno, I just get a weird vibe from the movie. On the surface, to me, it doesn't look interesting at all. A CGI scifi/action movie? Sounds boring. Then add the fanatical response it got... I dunno. Just makes me dislike the idea of it even more. I've heard people say this movie was a life changing experience for them.

Supposedly, much of the environment of Avatar was swiped some guy's paintings. I can't remember his name though, it's an ongoing lawsuit.

Precisely why I have no desire to see it either. Plus, I've read that there are a lot of heavy-handed "messages" in it.

Avatar is a new religion

Pastor James' sermon begins at 8AM sharp Sunday morning.

I just heard that the Obama administration is contacting James Cameron about ways to stop the oil spill in the gulf.

WTF? When I first heard this I thought it was a story from The Onion. Sadly, it isn't.

If you can get past the gag reflex from the balogna Cameron tries to force feed you it's actually quite enjoyable (apart from the storyline being almost a complete rip-off of Dances With Wolves). Great action and FX despite the BS.

I don't post stuff like this unless I check it out first.

Hope he's a better scientist than a director.

James Cameron is definetely a good film maker. He's made a number of awesome films. Avatar just seems totally stupid and is probably one of the worst films he's made. In my eyes, its no different from other animated films, which tend to be mostly kids films and that's what it seemed to be. The characters don't look at all life-like and the story is just a bit too unbelievable. Some people must be so gullable, obviously some people geniunely enjoyed the film, but others just said it to fit in with the trend.
