I saw 9 and All About Steve. 9 was cool, the other was awful.

I saw 9.

It was utterly mediocre.

Too bad. The trailers were great and there was some excellent talent involved.

Scooby Doo: The Mystery Begins

This is a brand new live action film that aired on Cartoon Network last night. It's a prequel (reboot? ) to the previous 2 films with a whole new cast. Mostly unknowns (except for the High School's Vice Principal, Optimus Prime er uh Gary Chalk )

This time around they/re all roughly 15 - 17 yrs old and in high school. Unlike Pup Named Scooby Doo they're not childhood friends.

Fred now has dark hair and is a jock
Daphne's still rich and she wants to be an actress
Velma is now Asian....still a science whiz tho
Shaggy is a social outcast at the school and has no friends at all
Spoiler:
Till he meets Scooby, also a social outcast cuz nobody wants to adopt him....awww


The setting is... Coolsville, Ohio... yes...that's right.... we now know the state.... I did some research and found that there's a town in southern Ohio called Coolville (no S but close enough!).

It was a pretty interesting movie. Thru certain cercimstances they discover that despite their differences they all have one thing in common. A love for mysteries, which helps when they're blamed for something they didn't do that involves ghosts.
Spoiler:
Ghosts that end up being real!


The CGI is actually better than the theatrical films. This is also supposed to be the first in a series so if it is...it'll be interesting how it's played out.

The original, unedited Terminator (1984).



Best. Scene. Ever.

I think I am one of the few people that prefer the original Terminator over Terminator 2 (Though I love both).

I rewatched Fearless. I was much less impressed with it this time around.

It's so much darker and more interesting. This was the first time I had ever watched all the way through, unedited...it makes T2 look cheesy and comic-booky in comparison.

And Linda Hamilton was hawt in 1984...

No. NO. She was not, and never will be, nor was she ever.

Unless of course you find C.H.U.D.s hot. or, sorry..."hawt."

T2 was awesome, but this started it all. And Kyle Reese is the most UNDERRATED action hero ever.

Looking For Eric. It started off good but the gangster plot ended up dragging it down. Still, I enjoyed it.

Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs. Way funnier than I was expecting it to be.

Tyler Perry's I Can Do Bad All by Myself. Not one likable character in the whole f*cking movie.

Jennifer's Body. It was...boring.

What else would you expect from a Diablo Cody movie? Juno was ****ing terrible.

Jennifer's Body. It was bizarre. Some funny dialogue was splashed in here and there though. I liked Jennifer's Body way better than Juno, now Juno was very boring, and I have yet to watch the whole movie because I always ended up putting something else on. But, take the whole thing with a grain of salt. I was half drunk and with a pretty big gang of my friends when watching Jennifer's Body, so maybe that made it more enjoyable for me to watch???
