Grosse Pointe Blank. It had its moments.

Come on now.  It deserves a little more than that.

[sbr]

I haven't seen any film in 3D since the new wave of films being released with it.

So can't say how it compares.

You don't get to the cinema much?
I thought Avatar was one of those films everyone and their dog has seen.

I haven't seen it either, but I don't go to the 'cinema' much at all. 

Also you can see Avatar without it being in 3D.

Rewatching old Frasier episodes. Holds up pretty well. And does not at all remind me of Languish at times:

Frasier: Hello Doug, this is Dr. Frasier Crane.  I'm listening.
   Doug: [v.o:] Look, it's about my mother.  She's getting on now and
         she doesn't have much of a life.  And she doesn't want to do
         anything or go anywhere and she literally hangs around the
         house all day.  I mean, it's very frustrating...
Frasier: I'm sorry Doug, can we just go back a second?  You said your
         mother literally hangs around the house.  Well, I suppose
         it's a pet peeve of mine but I suppose what you mean is that
         she figuratively "hangs around" the house.  To literally hang
         around the house you'd have to be a bat or spider monkey.
         Now, back to your problem?
   Doug: Do you mind if we stop while I tell you my pet peeve?
Frasier: Not at all.
   Doug: [angry] I hate it when intellectual pinheads with
         superiority complexes nit-pick your grammar when they come
         to you for help.  That's what I got a problem with! [hangs
         up]
Frasier: [happily:] I think what he means is, that is a thing with
         which he has a problem.

Gran Torino. A little disappointing.

Sin Nombre. Been putting off seeing this for some reason, despite lots of custys raving about it. Worth the wait. Beautifully shot ugliness in Latin America, as some Guatemalans & Mexicans make for the border & eventually the eden that is New Jersey. :p

Along the way there are some interesting troubles with gangs and whatnot. Daily life in the area I'm guessing. Some really good acting by young actors and a great sense of place with the gorgeous cinematography.

Way better than the heavily overrated Gomorrah.  Mostly because you can tell these gangbangers apart and they aren't Dr. Doom level evol to a man.  Excellente!

Rocky Horror with some random movie edits.

The problem with watching Godfather now is that you've seen so many movies rip off everything they did in that movie. Nothing is a surprise, nothing is new.

The iconic moments and best soundbites for sure, but the whole storytelling process is a very different thing.

Finished watching "Little Miss Sunshine" last night. I enjoyed it, but was expecting something maybe a bit more brilliant and memorable.

7.5 heroin snorting grandpas out of 10.

Ghost Town- I'd never heard of this one before. Ricky Gervais in a American film. Could have, should have been a good film from the idea ala Invention of Lying. Turned into a romcom. Still alrightish but...yeah.

[Darth Wagtaros]

Dragnet.  Awful.

[Ed Anger]

Dragnet.  Awful.

[Darth Wagtaros]

Dragnet.  Awful.

Two People Against Goodness and Normalcy out of Ten.

Could have, should have been a good film from the idea ala Invention of Lying.

Except that the latter movie was awful.

Dragnet.  Awful.
