Went to watch G.I.Joe on Saturday XD; typical action movie but oh well, it was entertaining :lol:

And I re-watched Hitman - Agent 47 last night :3!

Watched a Spanish (I'm in the mood, heh) horror film a couple days ago called REC. It was actually pretty good and quite chilling. Apparently it's going to be remade into an American movie called Quarantine soon? (oh Hollywood why the remakes?) =/

Wife, please don't divorce me....

I watched The Dark Knight for the first time the other day and it was so long, and boring with such an unnecessarily intricate plot line that I fell asleep several times. :lol: I don't know, maybe I slept through the good parts, but I have to say I was very let down and disappointed by it.

Heath Ledger was awesome, though.

Coincidentally I re-watched Batman Begins this evening :rofl: my only complain has always been the 'final battle' thingy in that movie though but it was love as per usual!

I think I'll try to re-watch TDK tomorrow Shal xD because it's just too epic! Too bad you haven't enjoyed it as much as I would have though o: *snugs you*

LOL, I actually liked TDK lots more than Batman Begins. I was really surprised by how much I liked it, really, since I can't stand Bale's face to save my life and I don't care about the Joker one bit. I believe it was all Aaron Eckhart/Harvey Dent's doing. He made the movie for me ~~and got the girl haha in your face Batman~~ xD

I'm seeing Terry Gilliam in the flesh at the BFI today (jksdf;jhfd omg) so I watched Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas yesterday. Which was extremely trippy and fun. It's been a while since I liked Johnny Depp in a role xD Now I just need to see The Fisher King to complete the Gilliam filmography (and Parnassus, when it's out), yayz.

I've been meaning to see [REC] for ages. Still haven't had the chance.

Quarantine was released in the U.S. last year. I actually went to see that movie in theaters, though some of the scenes were literally too dark to enjoy... It was nearly impossible to tell what was happening when they entered some of the apartments. :lol: Luckily, the DVD release doesn't have that problem.

Dude, Estee, I am so jealous of your movie adventures, okthnx. Terry Gilliam? Please to tell him he is faboo. Also, I cannot wait for Parnassus ~~even if it involves Colin Farrel~~ - that latest trailer looks... wow.

I'm sorry ... I think maybe I got sucked up by all the hype and then the letdown was even worse than expected. I haven't seen a single Batman movie I liked, but for some reason I thought this might be different. IDK... it just... wasn't for me.

I usually LOVE Aaron Eckhart but... meh. I just wasn't feeling him at all. BUT my husband did point out that I slept through some critical plot points regarding Harvey Dent so, LOL, maybe I should re-watch those.

So, Saturday, I went and saw Ponyo because it's Miyazaki and yeah: very, very good, very adorable and very much a classic Studio Ghibli tale. I was somewhat surprised by the plot, but it was still so amazingly crafted that even the cynic in me could believe in it. I also really appreciate Miyazaki's firm "draw-everything-by-hand" belief and the movie is worth it alone for the introduction scene. Freaking gorgeous. Also: Liam Neeson, kthnx.

And yesterday, like a good student who has finals due Monday (and work too!), I finally went and saw District 9 - I was hesitant, since I'm not big on sci-fi, but holy shit, probably one of (if not the best) movie I've seen this year. Absolutely gorgeous gorgeous directing. Now I really wish they'd been able to push ahead with the rumored Halo movie, because apparently Neil would have directed that one too. Peter Jackson sure knows how to pick them. Er... so yes, if I was plentifully impressed ~~and want to see it again~~ then you guys should definitely check it out - though fair warning, it is much more graphic then I was expecting. Which isn't bad at all. *loves the gore*

Saw District 9 tonight and I was amazed. I left feeling like the events in the movie were more real to me than what was going on in the world - as if I could Google "Johannesburg" and see that mothership hanging in the sky. The implied social commentary was amazing and brought tears to my eyes, and the special effects were great, too. I don't think I have ever described a sci-fi click as "beautiful" before but it definitely comes to mind when thinking about the amazing performances and directing.

Ironically, after everything I read saying there was so much gore, I was expecting a pretty damn bloody film... but I ended up being a little underwhelmed by the violence. ~~Although certain scenes made me squeal and cringe.~~

I definitely second the recommendation to go see this movie!

Funny People~! ❤ I was terribly excited about watching it and man I loved it to bits. It's probably not for everyone and I think the publicity is quite misleading (it's really more a funny drama than an actual comedy), but yeah, loved it~ GOD DO I LOVE SETH ROGEN djjsdf;jhdf ❤

Now I just need to go see (500) Days of Summer, District 9 and Inglourious Basterds =)

17 Again. I don't like Zac Effron but I actually thought he was alright in it, but I still don't like him D: There were quite a few funny parts in it.
