Last House is a good little movie.

Saw GI Joe and Basterds.

I enjoyed GI Joe more.

She's insane, Max Payne is delightful.

You just have a man-crush on Luda. Don't try to hide it.

Just watched Predator in HD. The transfer was terrible. The disk also lacks all the special features they had assembled on the DVD release. The only one it has is the trailer upconverted to 1080P which I thought was a strange way of trying to duck out of adding the other stuff. I only paid 10 bucks for it so no biggie I guess. It still looks better then the DVD version just not that much better.

Saw District 9. I thought it was pretty good.

Clash of the Titans
World's Greatest Dad

It was nice to watch Clash of the Titans again and I liked Robin Williams' perfomance in World's Greatest Dad.

Park Chan-Wook's new film Thirst.

It was...not what I was expecting. I liked it, though.

Welcome to the world of HD movies. Transfers are all over the place, and generally terribly sloppy on movies made before 2000. Even big name new releases have uneven transfers, like The Dark Knight.

Working my way through my newest acquisitions:
Born on the Forth of July: Great...one of Stone's best.

Demon Seed: A Artificial Intelligence wants a child so it creates synthetic sperm and impregnates Julie Christie. As weird as it sounds...

Divorce American Style: Not quite through with it yet, but I love how Norman Lear can go from realistic and heartfelt to over the top farce all in the same movie.

District 9. I didn't really know what to expect but I really enjoyed the story. Very Unique and I was happy with the effects. The camera motion bothered my eyes a little

Totally. One of my favorite movies of last year. I even liked it more than The Dark Knight, bitches.

Kill Bill: Vol. 1

For the most part, it was a fun movie.

Saw The Prestige on TV for the first time since I'd seen it in the theater. Having a clearer idea of what was going on, I was much more impressed by it this time around.

It's OK. Just, like I said, Prestige is better.
