Yeah he's the cameraman whenever they go and report stuff outside... minor part, but it's kinda weird when you notice.

I watched Coraline last night. It's based on the Gaiman book of the same name. It's done by the guy that did Nightmare Before Christmas, James and the Giant Peach, etc. So it has that whole stop-motion 3-d animation thing going on. I actually really enjoyed it for some reason. Yes, it is basically a children's story, but there is enough dark humor to please adults. It was pretty sweet to look at, too.

I've never read Gaiman's book, so I have no idea how closely it follows the original plot or anything. But, if you're looking for an animated film to watch, I say give this one a shot. I liked it. :rant:

Finally got around to watching Transporter 3 last night...,

Oh dear, barring the odd decent kicking that The Statham dishes out, it was crap. No more please and Mr Statham, please stop trying to add emotion to your range of acting skills. Stick to booting people's faces in and driving cars quite fast.

Sex drive- apart from the cheesy ending (please god someone please make a film in this genre that DOESN'T have the ending) I thoroughly enjoyed it all the way through.

Saw 'the Hangover'

As Mezla would say 'movie for an american audience'. It was hilarious, and not the high-brow kind of humor you expect from terrible british movies, but the 'I can drink a beer with my buddies and still laugh at this' kind of humor.

I don't know why I couldnt turn it off.
I was convinced it had to be a Lampoon
There was going to be an epic lol at the end.

oh boy was I wrong

How can such a cast
a passable premise and story (nothign ground breaking but its worked before)
Turn out to be so diabolically bad that I simply can't turn it off
Uwe Boll you sir have my respect, no-one could have made In the Name of the King as BAD as you did.

Watched "The Wrestler" yesterday. Pretty good movie about a down and out wrestler trying to figure out his life.
The movie is just ok, but Mickey Rourke is fanfriggintastic.

Also watched fanboys. It was cheesy, predictable and full of awesome star wars stuff. Pretty much what you'd expect. And i enjoyed it.

Going to watch Frost/Nixon tonight.

:)
I've always been crazy but its kept me from going insane.

The Curious Life of Benjamin Button has some problems, but ultimately is an enjoyable movie.

Elegy is a phenomenal movie. I think maybe four or five minutes of it come off as a little too facile, but it's one of the best movies I've seen in years. Cruz and Kingsley were perfect for their roles and the supporting cast extremely well done too.

Just saw Lucky Number Slevin. Well executed story, some funny parts, a nice twist and all tied together satisfactorily. I enjoyed it a lot ;).

Don't look now, but I think there's something weird attached to the bottom of my posts.

The Hangover is pretty funny. NOt the best raunchy comedy ever, but if you're into that sort of thing, worth watching.

Cant believe someone actually wrote this and thought it was cool.
