The Incredible Hulk... It was cool. I still can't wrap my head around Edward Norton as Banner, but he pulled it off well.

Watched the Cinema Insomnia version of a pirate adventure movie called Captain Kidd yesterday, which I thought was decent. It could've had more of a comedic tone, though.

Ah, yes. That was on the Sci Fi Channel, right?

Oh, you mean this person? If so, that's cool. I haven't seen any movies or whatnot that feature her as a character, but maybe I'll check out BloodMonkey sometime, despite how cheesy it looks.

Watched The Cell yesterday, which was a nice mix of genres. I also thought the chemistry between Jennifer Lopez and Vince Vaughn worked pretty well.

I did like the Cell, it was one of those movies that after I saw it I wasn't prepared for what it was, i guess at the time it was a little shocking.

I watched the Thai version of Shutter recently, it was creepy and I was happy to noticed it was a little more quick paced then some asian horror I have seen. It even made me jump once or twice.

Most recently, I watched Frankenstein Unbound, which was a great effort by Roger Corman. Even though I had problems staying awake during the movie, I still liked it.

No, it's not. And it has some really cool scenes in it. It's a sci-fi horror flick. A cross between Virtuosity and Silence of the Lambs.

But latest films I have seen.

Michael Clayton. Boring.

My Mom's New Boyfriend. Dumb and over acted by Meg Ryan.

Gone Baby Gone. I didn't like the ending. For spoiler's sake, let's say I agreed with the girl friend. It's tough choosing the lesser of two evils, but that was the best way to go for all parties involved. And I admire Ben Affleck's use of panoramic cinematagraphy.

Watching Rendition right now. Not too sure what to think of it.

I watched this porno with these two couples, like, furiously doing it, with a guy in a pirate suit in the background, doing paperwork or something. It was awesome.

Finally saw 3:10 to Yuma, and it was great. I was expecting to be let down after all of the hype surrounding it, but I loved it. The cinematography was gorgeous and the acting was top-notch (as is expected from Bale and Crowe).

Diary of the Dead

Not as bad as I had heard it was, but by far Romero's weakest dead film.
