I want to. But that's asking to be flayed alive in my family. In due time I suppose.

I...have no idea what to say about this movie.
Read the book.

This. Although I feel that both are standalone works of art.

I just saw Predators. Wow. Any fan of the original film NEEDS to see this as soon as possible. It has absolutely everything that makes a predator movie awesome, plus a handful of things that made Aliens awesome. It is also packed with easter eggs and references to the original film. Best of all, it pretends that every Predator movie after the original, including AVP, never happened. Arguably the most entertaining movie I have seen all summer.

Dang it. I really want to see Predators. O_O



Watchmen: Director's Cut

Pretty good adaptation, though I didn't like the story changes they made. Made the movie shorter, but also took a great part of the book.

Where the Wild things are.

Boring, depressing, and the 8th circle of hell embodied in movie form.

And I was playing my DS through the movie. It...went on forever. And depressed me. And generally made me contemplate suicide.

I hate movies. O_O

Whenever I'm down, I watch that movie. It makes me feel better.

Me too. I was completely blown away. It was even better than I had expected it to be.

Robin Hood. I was watching it with my Dad, and I had such a hard time figuring out what was going on. I drifted off into space. Also, the power went off at the movie theater (for about a minute), right before a guy was beheaded. What a cliffhanger! At least our tickets were $1.50 each.

Overall, a good HK action flick.
