i'm scaling back my friends list. feel free to drop me. i promise i won't be offended.

Gigantic: A Tale of Two Johns - a documentary on They Might Be Giants. Thoroughly enjoyable and inspiring. Lots of interesting special features as well.

Two Weeks Notice - I already forgot what this was about. I don't really care though because Hugh Grant is still my man.

Hush!- a film with gay people in it that doesn't need to get lumped in ( Read more... )

The Matrix Revolutions -
No good.

Maybe it could be better with another viewing (if I can mange to stay awake through it again).

Thank you sirs for ruining one of my favorite films. I'll just pretend that the first one is it and that there is no trilogy. There is no trilogy.

A Mighty Wind - Hmm. The music was almost too convincing, so this didn't quite have the same ridiculous feel of Waiting for Guffman and Best In Show. I liked the movie, but I wish it had been longer or focused on fewer characters. Catherine O'Hara is hilarious and can do no wrong.

Detroit Rock City - Easy to watch. Cute movie. Not many ( Read more... )

Lost In Translation - Like in The Virgin Suicides, Sofia Coppola creates a rich, atmospheric film.

The film is beautifu visually, the soundtrack is perfect, and the acting was excellent. The story, while I ( Read more... )

Rancho Notorious - Turner Classic Movies came through on this one. It's been on my "I must see every Fritz Lang Film" list for a long time and I'm pretty sure it hasn't been available on video for a long, long time ( Read more... )

Finding Nemo - Okay, so this was totally NOT what I was expecting. I was in tears in the first five minutes and I spent the rest of the time totally freaked out and anxious.

( possible spoilers )

About Schmidt - I'm a big fan of Citizen Ruth and Election, but Alexander Payne kind of lost me on this one. Part of my problem was that I expected a comedy and this wasn't a comedy. That's my own fault I suppose ( Read more... )

I haven't done one of these in awhile, so here's a really quick peak at some of the movies I've watched lately.

Y Tu Mama Tambien - SO GOOD. I was prepared to be annoyed because I wasn't falling for all the hype. This is a great film, you should see it for it's extreme hotness. I didn't realize that this was the same director as A Little ( Read more... )

Catching up on movies...

A Boy And His Dog - A "must see" that I didn't really need to see. It was okay and I appreciate it in a sci-fi historical sort of way. I thought it would be more disturbing for some reason. Also, what was up with the makeup with the people underground...was this a nod to RHPS? (looks like they came out the same year, ( Read more... )
