I just watched Cloverfield, and the best part about it was the preview for the new Star Trek movie preceding it. The Blair Witch-style camera gimmick didn't work as well as just showing stuff like in a regular movie. Note to Hollywood: It is very hard for those of us in "Flyover Country" to root for Manhattan metrosexuals who look like they stepped out of an iPod ad. We gave you guys the benefit of the doubt after 9/11 for a bit, but it is much more fun to watch monsters eat those people than to want them to survive. Also, show more skin, because it's a horror movie, not the aforementioned iPod ad. Give me horny redneck teens in a cabin in the woods and a werewolf.
It wasn't too terrible, but not worth 9 dollars. I give it one crankarm down.

Hope this will be a regular fixture.
Maybe BF members can kick in for the next 9 bucks.
That Indian chic was hawt. I'm glad she made it out.
DOn't they have matinee showings at the bat cave? I thought it was fun and worth the $6.25 matinee price, but I sat too close and got a headache.
No Country For Old Men comes out on DVD Tuesday. Buy it and thank your gods it came out before you died. It was phenomenal, and if you watch close you'll catch the reference to The Hudsucker Proxy, (I went to see it three times in the theatre, 'nuff said.
Still haven't caught There will be Blood.

I've heard from somebody who saw it that it was even much better (!) - than the ''No Country..''
..btw, did you read the book? .. Did you see the end coming when it did? .. I wasn't even paying attn to what dood (TLJ) was saying when the screne cut to black! .. I had to piece together my recollection of his recollection of that dream from teh periferial memory.. which I was only able to do once I had gotten over the shock of the abrupt ending! ..WTF?! .. Guess they were trying to make the ending fit in with the 'randomness'/ true-to-life character of the plot. But dood.. I DEMAND RESOLUTION!! In movies -- as well as in 'real life'!!
30 Days of Night
It was pretty good but, I do not often say this, could've been a bit longer. Seemed like an enjoyable beginning tacked onto an enjoyable ending. Best vampire flick I've seen in quite a long time. It is my theory that Ann Rice has polluted vampire literature and movies. She's made them into romantic anti-heroes so all the fat, female shut-ins who read her stuff will get all wet in the loins, but I remember a day when men where men and Van Helsing was played by old, ugly men who put stakes through those ****er's hearts, by God, not cuddle with them.
These vampires were not prone to soliloquize, were ugly, powerful and unlikeable. As it should be.
Also, no Tom Cruise.
I sat here for, like, 2 minutes, then started to look it up in the IMDB because i couldn't remember the name:
Michael Clayton So I guess that tells you something. Okay movie, Great performances, but I've seen this story about a dozen times and there wasn't any new, exciting "twist" that made this any better. For the actors involved I can see why they were nominated, everyone was good, but how it was up for best picture I'll never know. That guy who was schizo in this one and was the mafia boss in Batman Begins is pretty excellent.
I rented American Gangster, and while any self-respecting member of Gen-X has seen every single cliche' in this movie done better in better movies, it was still far superior to Michael Clayton. I've got a cousin named Clayton, and maybe one day I'll post about it, and I guarantee you it will be far more enjoyable to read than watching Michael Clayton.

haha .. you 'rented' American Gangster. :beer:

Boxing Helena Oh lord Jesus don't anyone rent this film. Just because it's David Lynch's daughter and/or because it seems like an intriguing snuff film is not reason enough.
Black Snake Moan
Be warned:
If you decide you like this movie, you will have to explain to your friends that it was not because Christina Ricci was half-naked or naked throughout the entire film, nor was it because you have some even weirder chained-up-by-old-black-man fetish. Also, it has Justin Timberlake, which you'll also have to apologize for.
Best to leave this one alone.
(Her boobs are pretty cool, though. ;))
I was recently gifted with one of my all time favorite movies ;)
"The Thing";) (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0084787/)

Call me a perv if you will, but sometimes that's enough for me. I rented Skyscraper 13 years ago for Anna Nicole's bouncy bits - it was the best part of the movie.
(Her boobs are pretty cool, though. ;))
Indeed.
The Mist
Totally wild ending, different than the novella. It was okay.
Hero
This was a beautiful film. If you liked Crouching Tiger this will be your bag.

You really can't argue with success.. can you.
It really doesn't matter whether we are infested with giant predatory insects from another dimension, or over-run with zombies, or up against hordes of unruly muslims in Iraq - America always pwns in the end .. we find a way.
Yeah, I think you're right. :) :beer:
Flawless Starring Michael Cain and Demi Moore. You need to see this one Pistofferson, it might hold a few surprises even for a seasoned movie buff such as yourself. It was so nicely filmed, and beautifully acted by Cain and Moore. The only down side to the film is that we don't see Demi's boobs, ask for a dollar off the ticket price for this reason, see what they say;):D
Anyway, two thumbs up.
Hero

I LOVED that movie.

The Darknight was good, but this was the best part.^^^ (Not a spoiler.)
Daniel Day-Lewis was phenomenal in There Will Be Blood.
I liked No Country..., but each appearance of the Anton Chigurh character seemed
to fill me with more dread. By the time of his final scene with Carla Jean, I could barely
watch.
Another creepy hit man is Joe Don Baker's character Mr. Molly in Charlie Varrick. This
is worth renting if you've never seen it.
