Star Trek Into Darkness (2013)
(after three minutes) JJ Abrams could qualify to direct the next Star Wars movie.
Bones: He’s fine
‘never trust a Vulcan’
Scotty, we have orders
THAT’s what scares me !
minute 54 - no, this is not Star Trek- except for the banter between the characters. But JJ Abrams definitely qualifies for directing the next Star Wars movie. -
Django Unchained
Watched Django Unchained. It's... entertaining, in a Garth Ennis comics sort of way. But Tarantino would do everyone a favor if he stopped casting himself in his own movies. This time, it wasn't even amusing ( Read more... ) -
Battleship (2012) - the movie
Just watched it. I have only one question : who the sweet ever-loving fuck managed to convince Skars that being part of this... videogame is a good move for his career? :| -
Rock of Ages (2012)
... good grief, I haven't laughed so heartily in months.
Brand channeling Freddie Mercury.

notes marking my reading progress
book 1, pg.10

Is anyone else out there tired of the whole bat thing already?
because I am, and haven't even seen the blessed third movie yet.
No, really. I've read the comics, and loved the whole society-and-media-against-the-vigilante/s thing, but that was way back when in the 80s and 90s. Things are different now in the world.
I love Nolan's Memento, been wanting to rewatch Inception but for some reason keep postponing it ( Read more... ) -
Andy Warhol wrote the elevator scene from Speed :|
or rather, witnessed it and described it in his diary
Friday, November 11, 1977
Sal Marciano from channel 7 Eyewitness News came to the office. They shot about five or ten minutes’ worth in front of portraits. Then the people on the fifth floor called and said there was someone stuck in the elevator around the second floor named Victor. Vincent and I ( Read more... ) -
