Watched 3 Extremes last night for the Hell of it.  Forgot how much I enjoyed them.

watched Lost Highway again yesterday. it's a brilliant movie, but i still don't get it, haha. love Lynch.

Watched Funny Games yesterday. I don't really know what to say...sometimes I didn't like it at all but sometimes it was ingenious. Disturbing, nevertheless.

watched Dr. Strangelove today, nice movie.

[lithium]

what you would you rate "we own the night" from 1 to 10

and why

[downtownpony]

saw tropic thunder yesterday, it's theater worthy. Zohan is still the funniest this year.

saw The Cube 1969's edition last night.
nice movie, thoughtful.

Just watched Doomsday and it was fun as Hell.  Homage to Mad Max, zombie films, Escape from New York/LA, etc.  Lots of blood and guts and action.

Saw The Dark Knight

Batman's voice. It's like he had a cock in his throat 24/7. Also fell asleep during the movie. But that's because I was too tired. I think.

[bright lights, big city]

why is it now cool to bash the dark knight? get over it, even if you hate comic books, heath ledger, maggie gyllenhaal's face, or bale's voice, it is still a very good movie.

Its an ok movie.  I don't know about a 1-10.  Its been too long since I watched it.  But I don't know.  Mark wasn't as strong of an actor as he usually is.  That was kind of disappointing.  And Phoenix is kind of bla to me.  I don't know, he just doesn't do it for me ( except in the village) Plus I don't think they did a very good job of portraying a police department.  It was just an ok movie.  The opening scene was amazing though.

Shut up, I'm not bashing it to look cool. I just expected way from it because it received global praise. The characters weren't as deep as I thought they were gonna be, story was way too chaotic for its own right and the Joker was not in there enough. Quite frankly, I thought it was boring.

I liked We Own The Night... the beginning scene was just meh.   You didn't see anything but nipple.  Big deal.

Watched:

The Devil Wears Prada - Even though Meryl Streep's performance was good, the movie itself was boring and predictable. Some fun parts here and there but it just wasn't for me I guess. 6/10

Final Destination - Entertaining teen horror flick. Interesting idea but realization lacked something and the movie remained just mediocre. 7/10

Transamerica - Felicity Huffman deserved the awards and nominations she got. The movie was funny at times and reminded me of Sideways, which I liked, but this one just wasn't as good. 7/10

just watched The Lords of Dogtown.

enjoyable flick.

Watched The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (1920) tonight.
impressionist.. it was interesting to watch it while stoned.
