Yesterday, I saw an indie movie called Like Crazy.

It was very good, nicely done, but the handheld cinematography
made me sick. :x

About the movie, I later found out there's no script,
everything was improvised. Performances were great.

I saw Immortals a couple of days back. I expected it to be similar to 300 and was disappointed. Maybe my expectations were too high. :shrug:

Even as we speak, I'm watching Chain Letter, which so far is a low budget, but still fairly decent horror flick. The only recognizable actors are Kieth David and Brad Douriff.

Was expecting some kind of horror classic. It's, well....it's something alright. Don't have a clue as to what wes craven was goin for.


It was nothing more than a ripoff of an Ingmar Bergman movie called The Virgin Spring

X-Men: First Class (2011)

Simply excellent. Makes up for the last two mediocre movies, and I may even like it better than X2.

Blue Valentine.

Ugh, so depressing. I need to see a new happy movie to make me feel better. Do you have any suggestions?

Winnie the Pooh? I dunno.

Stay away from Pixar movies. They're sad as hell. Especially Toy Story 3.

I don't know of many overly happy movies, but there have been some good adventure movies made in the last few years. I enjoyed Sherlock Holmes, Iron Man 2, Captain America, and X-Men: First Class in particular.

And there are certainly plenty of animated talking animal movies, if you're into that sort of thing.

Jackass 3D is fun, in a disgusting, "I can't believe someone willingly did that" sort of way.

I agree! Can't wait for X-Men Origins: Magneto
and for X-Men: Second Class.

Yesterday, I saw Arthur Christmas.

I liked it. A very nice alternative to the new Muppets movie.
You would not have believed the line just for
the new Muppets movie.

I also rented a copy of The Other Guys.

Laughed my ass off. I have my fingers crossed a sequel will be made.

From what I've read, X-Men Origins: Magneto was canceled and elements of the script were incorporated into First Class.
