Recent films. A very brief opinion.

I also preferred Howl...not to take anything away from Spirited Away.

Haven't seen Howl yet.
I'll give that a try when ever it comes on.

When it comes on?

Haven't you heard about Blockbusters $21 a month, all you can rent for as long as you want deal?

I've got patience.

Severance - Meh.
Gone Baby Gone - I really liked this. Affleck can do good after all.
Funny Games (US) - Not as good as I expected. I've had the original for years but never watched it. Why I put this on before that one is one of God';s great mysteries. Anyway wasn't as impressed as I thought I'd be. I guess I have very high expectations of Hanneke now.

I prefer Spirited Away over Howl's. I found the ending of Howl's rushed. "Let's end this silly war"

x-files sucked big time

Watched Giant and Papillon.
Lovely stuff.

I've got to thank HD and DVRs for making me watch this stuff.
And rewatching my favorite kid movies. Karate Kid, Jaws, ET.

Thanks, cable! And go fuck yourself for the price of it.

I'm taking in the new Herzog movie tomorrow

Dress Barn · Post by **Dress Barn** » 05 Aug 2008, 13:00

Started watching John Addams
First time I can remember where Paul Giamatti played something besides Pigvomit. Great watch so far but it's a little sappy for my tastes.

I'm all "enough with the speeches"

Also, what is up with HBO and being tarred and feathered?

The Rambam · Post by **The Rambam** » 05 Aug 2008, 13:09

Although the movie itself was only so-so, I loved Giamatti's performance in The Illusionist.

Atonement. Who is going to atone for this crap and my lost time?

Rick Cave · Post by **Rick Cave** » 19 Aug 2008, 23:27

Cinema Paradiso! Lovely stuff.
Didn't make me cry though. I heard it would.
Still a great film.
