Eastern Promises.  Superb.  Cassel was particularly good.

Wow.  What a fucking tragedy.

Geoffrey Fieger is the best attorney he can get?  Unfuckingbelievable.

Maybe you should send him your resume.

Amelia. I think this movie largely exists to show that generations of American school kids should not have learned about this shitty female pilot.

Godfather II. I got lost.

A few of my friends are desperately trying to drag me to 'Alice in Wonderland'... I really hope I can continue to resist....

De Niro = Pacino's dad, several decades earlier.

Bitch, I understood that.

Planet Earth, 1st few episodes on Blu ray - totally awesome.



Gamer - the rapidly becoming overexposed Gerard Butler blows stuff up and kills people. Blu Ray improved the film marginally. But not the weak story, or mostly aside from Butler, weak acting.

I'm amazed the story got past the pitch stage which is about as far as it goes complexity wise. Not a complete waste of time, is the best thing I have to say about it.

Been watching Survivorman.  Hardcore yo.

[Ideologue]

Terminator 3.  Better than I expected.

  To me, the old-fashioned special effects look far more "real" and authentic than 90% of the CGI churned out these days.

You are not the only one.
I would compare the latest Indiana jones to a bad playstation game though

The computer stuff can't come close to the models.  To me Independence Day or even Return of the Jedi have more realistic effects because of that.

[Josquius]

hmm...
I think the thing is with models is they look real because they obviously are real. However they look real but not like space battles or whatever. They're certainly actual objects but they're not what they're meant to be.
CG meanwhile...its a unreal looking version of what its meant to be.
