When I get to the movies early, I quietly scope out the crowd while playing Tetris on my cell. I try to gauge what the movie's gonna be like based on the audience. Those of you who know me pretty well will understand why I was worried when I noticed that most of the peeps in attendance were of the female persuasion. I knew to expect a 'girl ( Read more... )

The other day, Im talking to the 'rents on the phone and my daddy says something along the lines of "There's a preview for a movie that's been on tv a lot, that made me think of you. I just know you're gonna see this one--Zombieland". I replied with much giddyness and squealing. I'd only seen the trailer for this once, but it got me pretty ( Read more... )

I think Im prolly the only person I know who is capable of thinking of going to the movies as somewhat of an obligation. Dont get me wrong, I love going. But sometimes it feels like something I hafta do, and the only one pressuring me is myself. I was thinking of punting Fame this week, but doing the quick scheduling in my head I wasnt sure if I ( Read more... )

I dont know if I read the book as a kid. I feel like I must've, but for the life of me I really cant \m/ remember. But the movie was such yummy nerdy goodness. Not a complete home run, but still very fun ( Read more... )

Before I start the movie write up, just wanna say that I think I know how Im kicking off expletivedleted. I just found out that the Toy Story 1 and 2 double feature in 3-d starts on October 2nd and runs for two weeks, meaning that the last day is Oct 15 - day one of the AFI project. Toy Story being number 99 on the list, and this prolly being the only chance ( Read more... )

...or a bad title. That could kill a show pretty quick ( Read more... )

This makes three in a row that I manage to blog within 24 hours. Go me!

9 is the animated film for big kids, based on the Oscar nominated short of the same name. (Watch it here!) Set it a post-apocalyptic world, its about some dolls that somehow came to life after all of the humans had died off. Conceptually, brilliant. Visually, incredible ( Read more... )

Last night, the roomie noted my facebook status stating that I was staying in, so she told me to suggest a movie for us to go to. She thought 9 looked too weird and Jennifer's body looked too stupid (both of which I'll get to at some point within the next week) so the one left on my priority list was The Informant ( Read more... )

Really fighting the urge to go to sleep now and leave this post 'til tomorrow, but with expletivedleted on the horizon (*cough**cough* shameless plug *cough*go friend it*cough*cough*) I really need to condition myself to writing reviews right away. Dont wanna get behind when I got as many to watch and blog as I will when I start the AFI project ( Read more... )

So apparently, Amazon lets you rent movie downloads for 3 days for 3 bucks. Movie aquisition for expletivedleted just got so much easier and cheaper. Updating the progress sheet now.
